I've been coming here for a while, from dim sum and dinners with my family and friends. I'm a native Brooklynite from this area and grew up in Bensonhurst so over time I always enjoyed eating here and although East Harbor is better I still enjoy the ambiance of this place (the ceilings are very high) and all the dishes taste pretty good. My favorite is the soy sauce chicken since it's super tender and saucy!!!! I absolutely love it. It's really different from the other Cantonese restaurants I've visited since this was in a big pot to keep the flavor in place. We also ordered a lot of other dishes that were great from the soup special to lobster, E Fu noodles, Filet Grouper, Snow Bean leaves, and Sliver Fish, Scallops, Jellyfish, Chives & Celery. My second favorite was the Steak Kew. It was cooked to perfection! The most interesting part was really the scallop special which was with the vermicelli on top. It was interesting and the scallop was fresh. But I've never seen that before so I guess they were trying to innovate their recipes. It did work but it wasn't that special. I would probably stick to your Cantonese classics! In terms of service they were super fast in refilling our teapot and made sure we got everything we needed and even comped my dads ma lai gou and an extra plate of dessert for his birthday. Super thankful and will definitely be back!
This restaurant also does wedding events. The wedding venue is next to the parking lot on the side of the restaurant. They decorations are amazing. The service here was pretty good because they come to each table and portion out the food for all the guest. The food was really good and flavorful. My favorite dish was prob the first one with the crispy pork skin with other cold ingredients. Overall 5/5 for everything. There wasnt anything I could point out that was bad.
Park Asia is known as one of the best Dim Sum restaurants in Brooklyn. I tried their dumplings this weekend - delicious but pricey. The shrimp dumplings were my favorite. I really love this part of New York City - so many great restaurants in one area. Looking forward to more.
This is a beautiful restaurant to have a big gathering. The decor is impressive. Nice chandelier in the main entrance. They have room for quite a few hundred people and they have 2 floors. You can also have intimate meals too! They wait staff is attentive and helpful. They have your typical Cantonese cuisine. If you don't see it on the menu, ask!
Came here for a company party in the large upstairs party room. It was equipped with multiple tvs for karaoke which proved to be fun. The food came out quickly and we had more than enough. My only dislike of the food was the sesame dessert at the end--a bit too sweet!
Best dim sum place to go in Brooklyn however, the price is a bit pricey compared to the bakeries. Was here for an event. The servers were friendly. Would recommend coming here.
Park Asia has been a staple of the neighborhood for as long as I can remember. Ever since their renovation way back when, it has become a hot spot for dim sum and fancily decorated banquet hall for private events. There's a bit of a mob during weekend brunch hours and most tables are filled during dinner. There's a giant screen in the back of the restaurant that can be seen from across the street, which led me to my last visit. I haven't gone to Park Asia in years and recently gathered a last minute group for a walk-in dinner. Luckily, we immediately got a table and ordered to our hearts' desire. The service is prompt and attentive and the food was fresh and each dish was pretty solid. The menu is quite extensive with plenty of photos for non-Chinese customers and ABC's alike.
Bottom line: great value for authentic Cantonese food, approved by my Cantonese in-laws, and seasoned perfectly (read: not too salty). Must get the eggplant with garlic sauce and the house famous crispy fried chicken. Picture a giant open floor dim sum restaurant with a giant screen showing how all the dishes are made while the waiters bustle around. It's a fun vibe in general, and we really enjoyed all the dishes we ordered. Although the parents gave us side-eyes when we ordered the walnut shrimp with mayo, they happily partook when it arrived. The shrimp were plump and tasted fresh. Highlights of the meal were definitely the house famous crispy fried chicken (think Cantonese roast duck with beautifully crisped skin, not southern fried chicken) and the eggplant dish, which was made in the traditional style with chicken cubes and salted fish bits- really tasty and full of umami without being too fishy in the wrong way. Other standouts include the sautéed mushroom dish with Chinese yam, the beef chow fun (in laws said this was quite authentic, and enjoyed the yellow chives in the dish), the fillet steak Cantonese style (really tender and not as salty as it looks!), the walnut shrimp with mayo (although the shrimp mayo with fried milk also looked bangin'), and the pea shoots with mushroom (I liked the mushroom broth preparation, which was different from the usual garlic sautéed preparation). I'm a big fan of jellyfish and the portions here were generous- feel free to ask for black vinegar to complete your jellyfish experience (that's how I like it). Appreciated the fresh fruit and coconut jello at the end of the meal- true authentic Chinese restaurant experience. Also, all this for $200! What a steal. Big fan and we will for sure be back.
It is hard to find parking for Park Asia but it is difficult for many dim sum places in by 8th Ave Brooklyn. Park Asia in my opinion the most esthetically pleasing to dine in. Instead of the typical Asian wedding inspired background they have a large TV screen and large open windows. On the weekends it is usually busy, wait can be around 30 mins. Once seated the dim sum cards come around as usual. One reason why it's not 5 star for me is because I feel that the carts can come around a little faster. The cart ladies can present the dim sum in a better manner. Food itself is pretty good. The short ribs were pretty fatty though. Overall food can be pretty salty, but that's dim sum for you. I come here a few times a year, both take out and dine in. Overall my favorite place for dim sum by 8th Ave because of the esthetically pleasing internal design. Thank you for reading. Enjoy!
