About

If you spend time eating in New York, you’ll begin to collect a list of favorite Chinese restaurants – top spots for different cuisines, for different situations, in different boroughs. We don’t update these mental power rankings often, but then we had several meals at Kings County Imperial in Williamsburg, and it shot to the very top of the list.
This is a modern, incredibly satisfying approach to classic Chinese cooking with excellent takes on everything from dumplings both long and soupy, to spring rolls, to crispy garlic chicken, to mu shu duck. On top of excellent food, Kings County is a fun place to hang out: they make great cocktails and also have a nice outdoor/patio situation for warmer months. Dim sum brunch al fresco? We’re in.
Aside from being an inviting, accommodating, and friendly place to enjoy a meal, complete with cushy, circular red booths and lazy susans, the secret sauce at Kings County Imperial is the soy. The restaurant actually brews its own soy sauce, which is used in all the dishes on the menu. The sauce is sun-fermented in antique porcelain pots that sit in a Chinese field for 6-8 months, which apparently allows the soy to reach maximum flavor. Once it arrives at Kings County, they run it through a nitrogen line at the restaurant to prevent it from oxidizing too fast. It’s on tap at the bar, right next to the beers, and the negronis (also on tap, of course). It’s another example of the little details that add up to a great experience overall.
It’s time to turn the volume up on Kings County. If you are someone who likes Chinese food, dumplings, or an enjoyable dining experience amongst friends, then get to Kings County Imperial immediately.
