    The Peking duck skin was quite crisp and meat was ample, though may have not been fully authentic. The white meat on the chicken was a tad dry but was comparably crunchy. The cold appetizer had a pork component that was still a little icy. Lobster was chunky and meaty and the noodles were cooked well.

    Passed by multiple times when I go to the restaurant next door. Decided to come and try it and dont think the dimsum are that great. If you are in the area and want some mediocre dimsum then this is the place. Nothing stood out and dont think I need to come again.

    3.5 stars. I've been to New Mulan twice, once for a wedding banquet some ears ago and most recently for dimsum. On a holiday morning they opened at 10am, we arrived at 10:30am and there were plenty of seats. By the time we left the 250ish seats in their main banquet hall area were full and there was a line of about 50 people waiting in the lobby to be seated. Regular weekends are probably similar, with much fewer people on weekdays. They also have a separate banquet side which I believe is a little smaller, both are bookable for special events. First thing when arriving to your table is indicating what tea you want to order, commonly chrysanthemum, black or jasmine are options, though in our case my friend bought leaves from home and asked the staff for a ceramic teapot of hot water, which they were fine to provide. They do the old school dimsum pushcarts; wave over a dimsum lady passing by your table to check out available dishes on each cart. They have more or less all the staples--steamed meat/fish/shrimp balls, pan-fried taro and turnip cake, various steamed marinated meats, rice rolls and dumplings, fried savory and sweet puffs, buns, cakes. For vegetables, entree-size rice and noodle dishes and specialty items like seafood, you'll need to place orders with the waiters, then they are in part brought to tables by robot servers (see pic). Items I'd recommend: black pepper beef ribs, beef tripe with ginger, lotus leaf-wrapped sticky rice with filling, shiumai, baked roast pork buns with sweet topping. If you enjoy durian (I'm not a fan) I heard the durian puffs were good. I'd order again: any of the steamed rice noodles, pork spareribs with black bean sauce, steamed roast pork buns, egg custards, Chinese broccoli steamed with oyster sauce, fried eggplant with shrimp balls on top. A couple things were kind so-so or off that morning--my piece of shrimp in the steamed rice roll with shrimp tasted a little weird though the shrimp in the crystal shrimp dumpling was fine. The stewed tripe with turnip was just ok, kinda chewy and we didn't finish this. Both of these items are dim sum staples so it could just be an off day. Aside from waving over the dim sum carts, service is basically up to you to get the staff's attention if you need water refilled for tea, want to place an order, or request a check. That being said they're usually pretty quick once you flag them down. Bring the check up to the front register to pay, cash or card accepted.

    I came here for a wedding, although the wedding was fun with good company, mc, music, and friends. I would have to say the food was lacking. All of the food was bland in the exception of the pan fried noodle which was way too salty. In addition, the service was lacking, usually the staff would set the food down and serve some or most of it to the table. The wait staff did not do that for any of the tables. The food came out fast when it started, but again the staff member did the minimum of simply bringing the food out and did not serve nor switch out the dirty plates. I wouldn't come here to dine unless it was a must like for somebody's wedding banquet.

    Just as chaotic and delicious as the last time we came. My favorite has to be those little salted custard buns with the pig face on it. Something new I tried this time was the Yin and Yang fried rice dish and it was out of this world. Rich and comforting but also sweet and sour!!! So delicious! Just like last time the place was HOPPING! Carts go up and down, and there is so much food but the value is unbeatable! Looking forward to my next trip for sure, and worth taking my family too next time they are in town.

    Solid. Good food at good prices with great service. My opinion of the service might be skewed because my family has the gift of gab and somehow knew most of the staffers by name, but they're responsive and friendly enough in general. Ambience is fine. It's actually pretty spacious with plenty of room between tables and wide open cart paths. The bathrooms are a bit more unfortunate with limited stalls and noticeable wear and tear across the board. As with many Chinese places, the money is on the table. Food is strong. No compromises here in terms of flavor, quality and quantity. Standouts include the famous spare ribs and har gow with thin but structurally sound wrappers. Large portions of stir fried carbs can round out a meal nicely.

    In the Crossing Queens mall. Hot, greasy dim sum. Fast friendly and helpful service. Eat at the common area. I came early so plenty of space and no crowds.

    I came with my friend who knew what to order. The carts come around and you can choose what dishes you want. We had so much food it was amazing! One dish had mushrooms so I couldn't eat it (I believe it was the rice wrapped in a leaf), but everything else I had was top notch, hot and fresh. And the price, inexpensive. The service was fast, we also had some hot tea which was great. We came on a Sunday morning and it wasn't busy at all, about an hour later it got packed! Take the elevator upstairs to the actual restaurant.

    This review is for their takeout spot located in the Queens Crossing food court. It's a welcome addition to the roast meats/dim sum scene in Flushing. I tried their roasted meats over rice (fried pork belly and char siu) and also got a hot soy milk with sugar. The combo came with a generous portion of white rice, steamed napa cabbage, and a bit of sauce. The char siu meat was a bit tough as they seemed to use a lean cut. The siu yuk was better as the skin was crispy and the meat had good flavor. If you get the soy milk with sugar added, make sure to mix it yourself before drinking otherwise there will just be a pile of sugar left at the bottom (speaking from experience...). Cash only!

    New Mulan Restaurant is our go-to family gathering spot when we want a private room and karaoke! This restaurant has free parking for up to 3 hours however if you go over, they will charge. They charged us extra $4 since we were over 3 hours. We had a private room with our own karaoke machine and we spent the entire night singing and dancing the night away with family! It was the best way to spend Chinese New Year! Some notable dishes we had were the walnut shrimps, marinated short ribs, lobster, crabs, crispy chicken, whole steamed fresh fish, wow! The dishes were so delicious and flavors were great! Overall, love the ambiance, free parking, and delicious dishes! We can't wait to celebrate another family gathering at New Mulan!

    solid dimsum spot that still has the push cart dimsum ladies. It's never too crowded and my family and I almost never have to wait. Even for a busy day like Mother's Day service is quick and efficient. Has all your typical dimsum dishes - we love the roast pork puff pastry here and the special crab sticky rice or mushroom e-fu noodles.

    Crowded for Friday Dim Sum!
    Andie E.

    Dim Sum!!! I've been to New Mulan for dim sum several times, and each time was great. The restaurant is very spacious, and I appreciate that there was decent space between the tables. Service & hospitality were good. Dirty plates were removed quickly, empty teapots replenished often. The cart ladies did a good job displaying all the dim sum items. Note that the dim sum selections on a weekday differ slightly from the selections on a weekend; with weekend selections having a bit more variety. Both still very good. One advantage of going on a weekday is the price; with most dishes costing just $3.95 (excluding specialty items). I hosted an Unofficial Yelp Event (UYE) for 10 people on a weekday, and the cost was just $16 per person (including tax & tip!). What a bargain! We were all shocked! I would definitely return for dim sum again. Shout-out for all the Yelpers who came for dim sum today! Great to see everyone!

    This was an unbelievable-amazing-fun-experience that I can't wait to do again. My fellow Elite (Andie) messaged to invite me to this luncheon she was setting up in Flushing, an unofficial Yelp event. (UYE). There was no way I was going to miss this. Our Elite group here of 10 people are a very special makeup of people who love both good food and fun company. It was so nice to have our community managers from both Queens and Nassau.. Special KUDOS to both Samantha and Jared. This is not one of those easy-in-and outs off the main road or parkway. I drove to Flushing, parked in a lot and walked around the corner. The lots here are reasonably priced, (not like parking in NYC.) From that spot is was a simple walk around the corner enter building and take elevator to 2nd floor. This place is HUGE-BRIGHT-LIVELY with an amazing amount of electricity in the air. There is also a stage at the end which makes this a perfect spot for events too. Our table was at the end so I had to maneuver through the many carts filled with mountains of food being delivered to the different tables. I am afraid that I can't tell you all that I ate because I don't know any of the names of the items. The ones I know are the the pork and shrimp shumai, fried rice, beef tripe with ginger scallion, roast pork buns, and more... many many more. There are plenty of pictures of the food, and our group. I enjoyed everything and kept reaching out for more. That's the beauty of the dim sum meal. This was a great place, great atmosphere and great experience. KUDOs to the team at New Mulan Seafood Restaurant

    Ask the Community - New Mulan Seafood Restaurant

    Is gratuity/tip automatically added to the bill here? I think our party of 3 had 18% added to the bill but it doesn't say anywhere on the menu or any of the signage that there's an automatic gratuity for every table.

    Is there a private room that can host 30-40 people for a dim sum birthday party?

    Yes! I did a private room with my family there. Also upwards of 40 people

    What time is dim sum until on Saturdays?

    The latest Ive been and they were still serving was around 1-2PM. It was slowing down a bit but still food at that time, hope this helps.

    Do they do dimsum take-out?

    Yes, most likely they will allow

    Is it wheelchair accessible?

    Yes

    Is cutting of an outside birthday cake permitted?

    Yes. All Chinese restaurants I went to allow this at no extra charge. When you arrive, you can give it to the staff to put in refrigerator or freezer if it's icecream cake. However, I had bad experience with one restaurant that their freezer… 

    Do they have free parking?

    No free parking. There is a parking garage close by that offers validation from the restaurant. Though in our experience, the municipal parking works out to be a better deal.

    What are the holiday dim sum prices?

    $3.50 大中小 L, M, S

    What are the dim sum hours?

    Usually up to 2pm. The carts will start emptying out around then and will not refill.

    When will this $2.95 for any dimsum dishes be going on till? Special price since this is new opening.

    It was Mother's Day at Emperor Seafood restaurant. An absolute frenzy from the moment we walked in…read more-- packed dining rooms, large Chinese families everywhere, noise levels through the roof, and servers running at full speed trying to keep up with the chaos. The staff wanted my wife to sit at an angle to the table; so that they could pass through. The seafood itself was solid traditional Cantonese fare with fresh lobster tanks, steamed fish, and classic banquet-style dishes. The atmosphere felt colorful authentic Hong Kong banquet hall energy. However, some of their pricing was completely out of whack. Mother's Day premium for sure which is understandable, but some dishes were simply excessively expensive for what was delivered. For example, our two lobsters, while fresh, were missing that smoky "wok hei" flavor that great Cantonese kitchens are known for. It lacked the depth, aroma, and richness one expects from a proper high-heat wok preparation. A few items felt priced more for Guide Michelin luxury dining than a Flushing seafood hall. This said, the service was efficient and professional; changing plates all the time. So a high level of attention above the usual Cantonese restaurant. Overall, decent food in and an authentic Hong Kong style restaurant that targets special family gatherings, but be prepared, both the crowds and the bill can become overwhelming very quickly. I paid more than $400 for three people. But we had a Tiger Fish which is $50 per pound.

I have so many reasons to believe that Emperor is truly the reincarnation of the restaurant...just a little rusty. I've only come here for dim sum and I'm still surprised it doesn't get even half of the insane volume that nearby dim sum restaurants get, especially with how much closer they are to Roosevelt Ave. I have to say that the dim sum here is slightly better than most locations in the core downtown area, both in presentation and taste. No cart ladies, just a paper and pencil ordering system. The other diners that I usually encounter seem to strike me as locals, which is becoming harder to find these days. Prices are slightly more expensive than the other places, which is probably a factor as to why there aren't as many customers. The other reason is probably the subpar customer service here, which I've encountered on a number of recent visits. There are so many workers here, but none of them seem to have any good grasp of what customer service is. For example, I've had the waiter hover over me as I was gathering cash for my bill and snatched it the moment I placed the money down, also demanding at least 18% (again, for subpar service). Also, if you complain to them about your food, even if you find a hair, they will not do anything about it. The food quality is slightly above most of the dim sum places, but also bear in mind the hit-or-miss service you'll get, which the latter can be super frustrating.

It isn't just a restaurant; it's a cathedral of consumption. Look up quickly at that ceiling, a massive, radiating sunburst of gold and crystal chandeliers draped in waterfalls of white string, call it "sungold".. It's theatrical. It's loud. It's completely uncompromising and visually energetic and right up on your stuff. ​People think fine dining is about snooty & hushed dining rooms, white linen or silk tablecloths, and waiters moving like iceskating gohsts. That'sghosts. Real gastronomy is about energy, precision, and respect for the ingredient.ls. And here, in a cavernous banquet hall in Queens packed with hundreds of people clinking teapots and hailing steam carts, there is an absolute purity of discipline. ​I sat down, and within thirty seconds, the assault began. ​First came the Siu Mai. Look at the structure. Most chefs get lazy they pad the filling with filler, turn the pork to rubber, and overcook the shrimp until it loses its soul. But here? You bite through that paper thin yellow wrapper, and there is an unmistakable, violent snap of fresh, sweet prawn bound with perfectly seasoned pork. It's juicy, rich, and utterly balanced. No nonsense. Just technique. ​Then, the Har Gow. The true test of any dim sum kitchen. If the translucent skin sticks to the bamboo steamer or tears under your chopsticks, the kitchen has failed. Period. But when the basket opened, the steam rose with that clean, pure scent of rice starch and sweet seafood. The pleating on the dumpling was flawless tight, delicate, holding together a filling of whole, pristine shrimp that tasted like they were swimming an hour ago. ​And the atmosphere? Pure theatre. The carts weave through the room like a well-drilled brigade during a Friday night rush. The giant LED screens blaring event packages in gold and crimson, the hum of conversation, the crack of crispy pork belly skin three tables over, it's alive. ​Most people come to places like this and just see a crowded room. I see conviction. I see chefs back in that kitchen who understand that simplicity is the hardest thing to master. You cannot hide behind a fancy reduction or a sprig of chervil here. The dumpling is either perfect, or it's garbage. ​At Royal Queen, it's extraordinary. Pure, unadulterated passion on a bamboo steamer. Perfection.

We explained that we already got the ribs we ordered and she must have not understood when we were asking for our missing item as us ordering a different item. He understood and took it back. Won't become our go to dim sum spot but it was good for what it was.

    We went through a long (18 mile) walking through Queens and Nan Xiang was our final destination…read more The food was delicious and exactly what we needed after a long day. The soup dumplings are definitely the highlight on the menu. We ordered the assortment of 6 different soup dumpling flavors. My favorites were the pork + crab and the pork + truffle. We also ordered the pork + veggie wontons with spicy peanut sauce, and the chicken stir-fried udon. The soup dumplings are super fresh and packaged with flavor. The wontons are also solid if you want something a little richer. I've had better dumplings in the city, but still a very solid option. The passion fruit ice tea is fantastic and not too sweet. We were very impressed by how efficient the check in process was. The was a large line when we arrived, but it moved quickly and we were able to get seating within 20 minutes. The service was also good and the crew that helped us was very nice. We would definitely come back if we're ever back in the area!

    This place has the best soup dumplings, soup noodles, stir fried noodles as well as side dishes…read moresuch as garlic cucumber. The service wasn't too bad but it can be a long wait time if you come during peak lunchtime and dinner time hours. Don't expect music to be played in the background as some restaurants do but it gives an alright atmosphere.

    As Flushing's dim sum scene becomes less saturated, it's places like Crown One (御庭酒楼) that are…read morekeeping the Canto dream alive. While the food isn't necessarily going to win any awards, their space as a venue is what keeps them unique. Couple this with free onsite parking and spacious digs, and it becomes a destination. The main dining hall is surrounded by bright lights, a large LCD TV, and number of tables that are perfect for groups. This is a pushcart service, which is good news for those who want the nostalgia of choosing things directly from the cart. Not all the service workers are Canto-speaking, as I heard dialects from Wenzhou, Toisan (#1), and likely Fukinese. During the late afternoon, it's important to flag them down because it may take awhile for them to make the full round. From chiu chow dumplings (潮州粉粿) to shrimp dumplings (蝦餃), the selection is standard and well portioned. The steamed variety is preferred here, with some immediate hits in the form of spare ribs (排骨), shrimp rice roll (蝦腸粉), and glutinous rice wrap (糯米雞). The coconut jelly (椰子糕) was especially wonderful and the BBQ pork buns (叉燒包) were nicely steamed with solid chunks of pork inside. Overall, I think the food was consistent, tasty, and well presented. Prices are solid for Flushing and won't break the bank. The gaudy decor extends beyond the main dining hall and all the way into the bathrooms. Their staircase is a perfect photo op for folks and the manager / wait staff are hardly camera shy. Crown One would easily go on my list for restaurant repeats and I hope they continue to make improvements all around. ___________ (#1) Fine, Taishan. Happy mainlanders?

    Love the Wonton Noodle Soup here. At minimum I at least get the egg noodle with wonton. Recently I…read morewant back and did the 3 topping with wonton, dumpling, and dace fish ball. All were delicious! I have bought it and re-heated it up the next day as well and it still taste good! Tried the shark fin soup as well and it is thicker (not very soupy) but flavor is great. If you don't like the thickness you can always add some water to it. Definitely a go to spot if I am in the area :)

This is Hong Kong style done right, and in Flushing you're getting the real thing at prices that genuinely rival what you'd pay in China. We lucked into a nice day and grabbed a seat outside. Service was fast and furious, which is exactly what you should expect and honestly want from a spot like this. You're not here for a leisurely dining experience, you're here to eat something delicious and get on with your day. My one gripe, and it applies to the whole surrounding area and not just Maxi's: there are basically no bathrooms to be found. Plan accordingly before you commit to a big bowl of soup. Cheap, tasty, authentic. Everything a Flushing noodle spot should be.
