This is one of the great, massive dim sum restaurants in New York’s most vibrant Chinatown--the one in Flushing, Queens. Carts roll fast and fresh to every corner of the expansive dining room, which offers comfortable, roomy seating and innovative takes on the typical steamed dumpling fare (check the scallop salad topped with shark’s fin, in Jade’s signature green-tinted rice wrapper).

My go-to dim sum in Queens
by social work gradstudent at Citysearch
This is a favorite for me and my husband. We are here a few times a month. We love the steamed pork buns, the Shrimp Noodle, and the fried pork dumplings we fondly call "foot balls" for their distinguishable shape.
My husband and I agree that this is the best dim sum in New York City. I lived on the West coast where dim sum is much better, but I love Jade Asian. My husband grew up here, and he won't go anywhere else.
- Pros: Great selection and prepared well
- Cons: Less food made after 2pm
The Details on Jade Asian
Know Before You Go:
When in doubt, point, because the language barrier might be substantial if you don't speak Chinese.
Save Money:
With all dim sum items being 50 percent off during the weekdays, there's no reason to battle weekend crowds (arrive prior to 2 pm for the freshest cart service).
The Extras:
When taking a number for seating, be ready when your number is called--due to the consistent crowds here, hostesses don't wait before they call the next number.
