Asian Jewels Seafood Restaurant 8.2
Flushing-Willets Point
Vibes: Group Dining Gatherings Birthday & Celebration Central Family Friendly Favorites Trendy Table Hotspots
Asian Jewels is a classic Cantonese banquet and dim sum hall where carts snake through a ballroom-sized dining room on weekends. Families and large parties rely on it for big-format seafood, roast meats, and an old-school feel that has helped anchor Flushing’s Chinatown for years.
Must-Try Dishes: Har gow shrimp dumplings, Siu mai pork dumplings, Roast duck over rice

What makes it special: A traditional Cantonese dim sum and seafood palace built for cart service and banquets.
Who should go: Families and groups planning dim sum feasts or celebrations
When to visit: Weekend late morning for full dim sum cart selection
What to order: Har gow, siu mai, roast duck, rice noodle rolls
Insider tip: Take a quick lap around the room early to spot less common cart items before they disappear.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking is limited on weekends; nearby municipal garages on 37th Ave and 39th Ave offer the most reliable option.
Dress code: Casual to smart casual; families often dress comfortably, but larger celebration groups may lean slightly dressy.
Noise level: High during peak dim sum hours due to rolling carts and large banquet tables; quieter during weekday dinners.
Weekend wait: 30–45 minutes for small parties; large groups may wait longer without a reservation.
Weekday lunch: Usually minimal or no wait outside of holiday periods.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — dim sum carts generally include vegetable dumplings, sautéed greens, and tofu dishes.
Vegan options: Limited — a few vegetable plates and steamed greens, but most dim sum items include egg or seafood.
Gluten-free options: Limited — some steamed dishes and plain seafood preparations are workable, but many items use wheat-based wrappers or soy sauces.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? It’s ideal for energetic, food-focused dates who enjoy dim sum carts and communal dining, but the large, noisy room may not suit quiet, intimate conversation.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, but expect waits during weekend dim sum hours. Arriving before 11 a.m. or after peak brunch waves helps secure faster seating.
Is it kid-friendly? Very — staff are accustomed to families, high chairs are available, and the constant movement of dim sum carts keeps younger kids engaged.
Best For
Better for: Large gatherings, traditional banquet-style seafood, and classic dim sum service with full cart rotation.
Skip if: You want quiet dining, modern small-plate Cantonese, or a faster, more intimate experience.
