Golden King (金園飯店), Cantonese in Town Center Plaza in Sterling


Recommended Posts

Guess chaofun had a scoop, as he added this location to our dim sum guide before any of us posted. I had seen this place advertise in the local Chinese paper but not visited until today. I saw an acquaintance post about dim sum today, so, well, I felt I wanted to have some dim sum on a dreary day, so I went.

Golden King opens as early as 10am, which is great, given the congee selections on the menu. I stopped by at 11:00, knowing that they serve dim sum off the menu during weekdays (carts on weekends). The portions were big, I feel, given the price; I think dim sum is just getting pricey. My bill came to $21 and change after taxes, pre-tip. I ordered:

1/4 order roast duck

All were pretty good, with lots of leftovers since it was just me. I liked some of the things but I also like HK Pearl, which is closer, but it's nice to know there are now two options in Northern Virginia. I think I would like to try ordering from the menu next time, as I love Cantonese rice platters. Definite comfort food.

The server said you can order the dim sum or regular menu to go. Delivery is within 5miles (I think) with minimum order of $15. Definitely worth a second look.

I will scan in menu tomorrow.

Thx for posting this goodeats, been meaning to mention something about this but hadn't gotten a chance. For those of us in Loudoun this is a good option for Dim Sum close by. Closer in NOVA it's not worth the drive when you have HK Pearl which is >= Golden King.
