Royal China

Located in a strip mall between a very busy Duluth Costco and a Big Lots, Royal China is the best spot for a full, traditional dim sum experience since they have a ton of offerings. Picture chandeliers and beautifully decorated private banquet rooms—where there’s a good chance you’ll glimpse a wedding reception. Steamer carts make their way around the room while sounds of chatter echo off the high ceilings. We’ve never had an item we didn’t like here. But if we’re picking favorites, we like the steamed shrimp rice rolls, ginger scallion tripe, and beancurd skin rolls. The place is always busy, so order knowing items sell out quickly and may not restock again during your meal. And keep in mind while dim sum opens at 10am, the kitchen doesn’t open for entrees until 11am.
