Beijing Duck Seafood Restaurant

Atmosphere is super good. Restaurant opened only about a year so not well known yet but dishes are authentic and delicious. Restaurant is very clean and neat. Very large menu with all kinds of dishes with quite good vegetarian selections as well! The restaurant is right on the race street in Chinatown I have been passing by many times but never paid attention to probably because their sign is not very obvious to people on the sidewalk. Great place to eat in. They have dim sum in the morning.

Ok, first, I guess it's a good concept, since there are times that we want to eat more of one thing and we feel guilty right? Plus it adds up quick. Well, now it's a buffet.
The bad parts - as others said, food is brought out a few at a time, maybe good for freshness, but it's like the crab legs at buffets, but those places, at least you can glance the cart that it's about to be refilled. With these, it's any ones' guess. I had to stand up a few times just to see if it's the chicken feet...
What's worse is that for sanitary purposes, there weren't much. Normally, the server uses the tongs to hand out the food, but here, you grab them yourself, and then either put back the tongs for somebody else to grab... or with happened to me, somebody else grabbed it from my hands as I was putting it down... with his moist hand. Visualize. that. for. a. moment.

They use black garbage bag to collect used steam basket. Black garbage bag is much more dirty than the garbages, it contain many chemical contaminations like BPA, it also contain some extremely toxic chemicals. These chemicals will stick in the wood and went to the food, during the steam process it made it more toxic. Why American force store to have fire exit which mostly never useful and ignore these chemical safety problems?

Be there on Friday for dim sum buffet. Most of the food are tasty and fresh and steamed hot. I like the egg tarts the best, even better than the ones from bakery stores. All the staff are friendly and keep the whole environment neat and clean.

We stopped in one night for dinner. It's a nice restaurant, pretty and clean, and the food is good too. When we were leaving, I asked about the dim sum and learned that they have all-you-can-eat dim sum (I had never heard of such a thing) for a very good price.

We returned another day to try the dim sum. You have to get the food yourself buffet style and there aren't as many options as you'll see at a traditional-style dim sum restaurant, but you can order items that you don't see which are then brought to your table. I don't eat pork and normally cannot eat shu mai for that reason, so I was very happy to learn that their shu mai does not have pork in it and they were big and tasty. The ha gau were also well-made and filled with big shrimps. The ha cheung was similarly filled with big shrimps. If you're a shrimp lover, then you're in heaven at this place. It really is a great deal for the price. If you just want good food and don't mind serving yourself, you can save yourself some money and eat here instead of a traditional-style dim sum restaurant.

Hit up this bustling AYCE dim sum joint with a friend on a Sunday noon and wow, the energy was alive! The place was packed (good sign) and the vibe is that classic, no-frills, authentic Asian eatery feel—busy, a little chaotic, but totally charming if you’re here for the food.

They offer a legit variety of dim sum, and I’m telling you, their tripe and chicken feet are next-level authentic. If you’re into those adventurous eats, the tripe was tender and richly seasoned, soaking up that classic soy and ginger punch. The chicken feet had that perfect gelatinous bite with a subtle hint of star anise and black bean sauce that true dim sum lovers crave. Also snagged the cute little piggy buns, soft, fluffy, and sweet with that savory pork filling that hits just right. The beef short rib was meaty and tender with a savory glaze that felt homemade and comforting.

I was obsessed with the honeycomb cake for dessert. It was light, spongy, and sweet with a subtle caramelized note that balanced the savory feast. Bonus points for the egg tarts, which came from those warmers and were buttery, flaky, with that classic creamy custard that just melts in your mouth.

Service is speedy but no-nonsense. You grab a tray and head to the back to pick your steamers, and as soon as you’re done, they whisk them away. It feels like a little dance of efficiency behind the scenes even if it’s a bit hectic. Heads up: you gotta take the full steamer, no sampling just a few pieces. It’s definitely a rush to get folks in and out so the vibe isn’t “hang out all day,” but it works perfectly if you’re craving quality dim sum without the fancy frills.

Oh, and a tip, bring cash! Paying cash means you pay exactly what’s on the sign, but they do accept credit cards with a slight upcharge if you forget. No biggie, but worth knowing.

Overall, this place nails the authentic food part. It is somewhat messy and a little disorganized, but that’s all part of the charm for a spot like this. The service isn’t stellar, but honestly, I’m here for the eats, not the ambiance or white-glove treatment. Definitely coming back for that tripe, chicken feet, and honeycomb cake combo. If you want real-deal dim sum at a steal, this is your spot!

We tried the all-you-can-eat dim sum here and it was very disappointing. The total came to $41.02 before tip, but the food quality did not match the price. Every dish we tried was greasy and poorly made. The only good part of the meal was the jasmine tea. For the cost, there are far better options in Chinatown. Would not recommend.

Delicious dim sum!

I was skeptical when my wife and I visited to partake of unlimited dim sum for an inexpensive price. How good could it be, I wondered? Excellent, I found!

I began my dim sum experiences in NYC Chinatown in the 70's and later visited dim sum restaurants in SF Chinatown and Hong Kong as well as more local options in various states. My wife is from Hong Kong originally and is, as most Chinese and Chinese descended are, a foodie when it comes to Asian food. We both agree that the dim sum is great at Beijing Duck Seafood Restaurant 😋

Clean restaurant with some friendly service. Had the all you can eat dim sum which came with a variety of dishes including Porridge and dessert. Bathrooms were clean and the dim sum was for the most part really good. Although there is a 2 dollar per person fee for water or tea, it’s a really good deal overall. 16.95 per person.
