Studies indicate there is a lower exposure risk when eating outdoors, and the level of risk involved with patio dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines. As of October 25, King County will require proof of vaccination for everyone ages 12+ at indoor establishments, restaurants, and bars. Here’s some of the best restaurants in Seattle to get your dim sum fix, listed from north to south.Īll restaurants listed offer takeout and indoor dining. Now that more restaurants are welcoming back dine-in guests, expect to see those same carts - loaded with dim sum options - making the rounds again. Over the pandemic, those carts disappeared, along with dine-in service. Traditionally, these filling and affordable options were wheeled right to your table on carts. The fun part is in choosing which delectable sweet or savory treat to pick next, like har gow (shrimp dumplings), sesame balls, or hom bow (a sweet, fluffy bread roll stuffed with meat or other fillings). However, I can’t leave without a bit of happy happy joy joy.Served from early morning into the afternoon, dim sum is like a Chinese brunch, featuring small dishes of fried or steamed dumplings, rolls, buns, cakes and other snack-sized items meant to be enjoyed with friends and family. I don’t know about you but I’m all “punned out”. I know Juna, my friend’s daughter, agree with me. I’m joyous to say that Joy Palace falls under the “really good dim sum” end of the curve, and that I enjoyed many of the dishes, and that most of them were a joy to eat. There’s good dim sum and then there’s really good dim sum. If you have a lot of dough and have many friends (like about 300), and you’re generous, take them all to Joy Palace and have a joy-filled time.
I guesstimate a 300-seating capacity, though it’s hard to tell that from the angle I took. Joy Palace is pretty roomy and can handle many diners at once.

Fried Bean Curd Skin with Shrimp (seen jook ha).Baked BBQ Pork Bun (jjing cha seew bow).The dim sum trip was special to me and I find it appropriate to say… The last time Helen and I ate out together was several years ago… before boys and marriage entered our pictures. In less than 10 minutes, we found ourselves in Joy Palace. I thought that we’d end up going to Chinatown, since that’s where I’d typically go for dim sum. “Where’s a good dim sum place that’s near here?”Īt the time, we were in Seward Park in South Seattle. Parking - in the Vietnamese grocery market on the king street or at the parking lot under the highway. So I went with impulse and suggested we do dim sum. First time coming to the Seattle Chinatown district. Make your way to Arcadia for a standout dim sum experience at China Red, where diners pick from a robust menunote: no carts herethat includes steamed bao, shumai, har gow and.
We were supposed to have a picnic, but I forgot to bring utensils for our provisions, and I know eating Hawaiian meatballs with our hands would have been very messy… though fun, I think. This past Saturday, I had a lunch date with Helen, my very pregnant girlfriend, along with her husband, and their almost 2-year old daughter.
