    Authentic Chinese Cuisine, fresh, fast, hot off the wok & consistently tasty. We had one of their banquet menu meals - where the selection of dishes was designed with a large sit-down group in mind. All reasonably priced. In Seattle Downtown / International District / Historic Chinatown, Joyale is conveniently located within blocks of bus transport, lite rail & Portland Street Car.

    First time came back to this restaurant after pandemic. We ordered turnip cakes, bbq pastry, chive shrimp dumpling, pork dumplings and sticky rice. The dim sum were good except no warm enough. Good place for basic dim sum!

    A convenient place in the international district. Free parking up to 2hs They provide the food cart with dim sum for u to choose! Siu Mai, egg tart, buns, egg roll, congee….soooo many choices! And all of them are fresh since the dishes are just steamed from the kitchen! Service is great, they would recommend and let u to choose what u want. This reminds me of the life when I’m in Guangzhou, chill and relaxed❤️ Will come back and have a try with their main dishes🙌🏻

    Excellent location. Excellent convenient covered free 2 hours parking inside the parking garage level 3. Nice friendly employees. Good customer service. Lots of good delicious full of flavor Chinese dishes. Including DimSum. Fresh food. Reasonable prices . Good portions. Lunch specials with special prices. Really busy during lunch & dinner times. Eventhough they are so busy with big groups, but are they still attentive. Please give your self & your group lots of time if you go during their very busy times. I highly recommend this place.

    Worst experience ever. The beef fried noddles is just a few pieces of beef on top of overcooked melted noodles. Never see anything like this before. Treat take out customers like idiots! I am sure this one will go out of business soon. The fried seafood is a joke, just a lot of fish balls( pretending scallops I guess). The meat is full with bones and bread coat is so thick!

    Great dim sum, and a huge party room with stage. It seems like they always have wedding decorations up. Once we saw a Mongolian Opera. Cool place especially on the weekends. Customer service needs some help.

    FREE PARKING in Garage for 2hrs, enter up the Hill on 10th from Jackson. This a rare benefit for Chinatown Take Elevator down to second Floor. Stopped in for quick bite. Flavors authentic and will dine again sometime. Many rave about the Dim Sum and Restaurant serves till 3PM. We discovered a DIm Sum variety of Fried Shrimp in Bean Curd Wrappers very tasty and seldom seen in Dim Sum House offerings. The Chive shrimp pan fried in won ton wrappers is another variation of a commonly found steamed version. Also their Turnip cake has a added sweetness to the mix.

    Absolutely the best Hong Kong style dim sum in Seattle. A lot of people on the West Coast make the assumption that dim sum in Seattle has to be amazing across the board, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Quality dim sum chefs will either go to San Francisco or Vancouver, completely bypassing us. This place is the exception. I love Harbor City, but this restaurant is a little better on overall flavor. The Bean curd rolls are some of the best I've ever had, and the staff is excellent, and the owner is such a positive and attentive front of the house manager. I sure hope the chef stays! I love the chili oil. Keep up the great work.

    I went here several times for dim sum. They have varieties of dim sum choices and some cantones style soup. 姜汁豆花 is die for. I would say it is probably the best dim sum place around Seattle area. Staff were always friendly here. They have parking garage upstairs with 2hrs free parking which is much better than other dim sum restaurants in China town.

    Such a great experience. Loved that they checked our vacinnation cards at the door! The food was absolutely delicious

    Quality has improved. After avoiding this place for years we decided to give it another try. It has much improved since our last experience. Quality is good enough (I think there may be slightly better ones yet), but given the convenience of parking and the speed of service, I’d recommend it.

    Probably my favorite Chinese restaurant in the US. Everything is so fresh. Haven’t had a meal like this in a long time. The service was great too. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 kristi 4. 1 year ago on Google
    Vince and Laurie are great hosts! The food is amazing. Dim sum during lunch hours or off the menu authentic , fresh cuisine til closing . Free secure parking in Pacific Rim Building (International District). This palace of a restaurant can host your large party or intimate gathering. Excellent service. Ask for Mindy.

    So so Food! Everything was "so so"/not tasty or flavorful! Sent and sour loaded with sauce, fatty meat; steamed pork not prepared as usual, dried fish mixed in with pork and not served as a garnish: service just so so too! Have been eating Chinese food for eons, this was one of the poorest tasting! Suggestion: Try some where else!

    Great food and environment for a group dinner! Me & my friends all ate so much & enjoyed every last bite. I will definitely be back!

    Excellent variety of dim sum dishes circulating on carts. Liked the thermos of hot water to freshen our tea. Recommend to arrive about 11 am. We went about 10 am and there was a limited number of carts. By 10:45 the charts were loaded with a great variety of dishes. Also recommend you go with 6 or more people (we had 9) so you can select many dishes.

    Haven’t been back in town and never a disappointment at Joyale. The food is great as ever and price is absolutely affordable compared to other restaurant.

  • 5/5 Tyler K. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent place for seafood, dim sum, traditional and modern Chinese food. Lobster with noodle is always a favorite. Great service and atmosphere, seen a few marriages and parties held here in the past. Parking is a plus as it is 2 hour free parking in the covered parking lot.

  • 5/5 Homu 2 years ago on Google
    Was a bit skeptical of other reviews that said this is the best dim sum in Seattle when we have mainstays like Harbor City and Jade Garden right down the street, but I'm thoroughly impressed! They nailed it - the freshness, the savory, the sweets - but most of all the ambiance! What is a dim sum place without aunties pushing carts around demanding you to clear out their carts? As a newer establishment, it's actually well lit and not overcrowded with tables. I highly recommend giving this place a shot, even if you have your long time favorite dim sum already in Seattle. It even have plenty of free parking! Free Parking! In Seattle!

    The live seafood held in tanks is the highlight. Ordered the lobster noodles and Dungeness crab vermicelli. The Dungeness crab was quite large with good flavor and the vermicelli was fantastic and well seasoned and flavored. The lobster was good sized as well and seasoned/cooked to perfection but the noodles were a bit of a let down, kind of bland, maybe better stir fried. Prices were reasonable. Staff was friendly although we arrived early and was one of only 2 parties there. Couldn't find the entrance to the parking garage easily but was able to find a street parking spot nearby.

    Large dining area, staff bring dim sum plates around on a steamed food trolley, a fried food trolley, and a dessert trolley. Good selection of dumplings, rolls, and pastries.
