Visiting Crown Prince made me question who was their interior decorator. Was there a surplus of discount pink velvet during the construction of the restaurant? Is this what the interior of Playboy Mansion looks like? All joking aside, I have to admit, the inside is kind of impressive. It's definitely hands down the fanciest looking dim sum place I've been to. The English tea sets are a very nice touch. If Marie Antoinette demanded a dim sum restaurant be put inside Versailles, you can bet it'd look something like Crown Prince but a little less pink.
I came here with family on a Saturday at 9:00. Prices were $2.80 per dish for the whole dim sum menu. I was surprised at the incredibly cheap prices as the restaurant interior screamed "tacky 1%".
Standouts of the meal include the lamb, giant shrimp dumplings, fried taro and chicken flaky dumplings and lotus leaf wrapped sticky rice. The squid tentacles were good but were pan fried instead of my preferred deep fried. Then again, I prefer a lot of things deep fried. One dish I would definitely avoid next time is the curry baby octopus. They were not tender and were hard to eat unless provided with a fork and knife. The mango pudding I ordered at the end was kind of flavorless though the koi shapes it came in were cute.
Service is alright though the waitress forgot/ didn't care to tell us that one dish we ordered was no longer available until we flagged her down asking for the bill. The line-ups here around 11:00 are insane! I think there was a bigger crowd at the door after 11:00 than there was before.
