Late-night dim sum & Cantonese fare with Peking duck & seafood
"Chinatown’s location of mini-chain Dim Sum Palace is a certified scene even at 3am. Everybody seems to be celebrating something over shredded duck spring rolls, and salted egg yolk buns. If you're looking for a fun sit-down meal at this hour, there is no better choice. In lieu of cart service, they offer a la carte ordering. So get some har gow and eavesdrop on a drunken late-night date." - willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, sonal shah
"This list is full of dim sum spots where flagging down carts is half the fun, but Dim Sum Palace is a blast even without putting their pork buns on wheels. The plump har gow, crispy short rib niblets, and shredded duck spring rolls just taste better fresh from the kitchen, and there’s plenty to amuse you while you wait for your dumplings to cool down. The Chinatown location of this local chain is the only one that’s open until 3am. At any given hour, you’ll walk into a packed room, where most people seem to be celebrating something and taking full advantage of the restaurant’s liquor license. Follow their lead, and top your dinner off with a plate of orange slices for good luck." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, neha talreja, willa moore, will hartman
"Unlike its late-night Chinatown sibling on Division Street, this location of Dim Sum Palace only stays open until 10 p.m. But it is an ideal pick for group dining, especially without a reservation. Find Cantonese dim sum classics here like shrimp shumai dumplings, rice rolls, and more." - Eater Staff
"There’s something magical about going out to grab a bite after midnight, and this vast Chinatown location of a local chain does it right: it’s open til 3 a.m. and its dim sum menu is served all day. With tanks lining the back wall of the 200-seat restaurant, fresh seafood options abound, making it a strong late-night choice." - Eater Staff
"Hours: 10 a.m. to 3 a.m. daily There are more than 50 kinds of dim sum on the menu at Dim Sum Palace, a small chain whose location in Manhattan Chinatown stays open until 3 a.m. every night. Before the pandemic, the neighborhood was packed with late-night restaurants. Now, it’s one of the few places to serve food past midnight. Pick among barbecue pork buns and roast duck spring rolls, or order larger plates to share, like whole lobster with ginger and scallion or snails with celery and hot peppers." - Luke Fortney, Robert Sietsema
