Triple Crown Restaurant, Chinese dim sum restaurant in Chinatown, Chicago, United States.
Triple Crown Restaurant is a Chinese dim sum establishment in Chicago's Chinatown where servers bring food on rolling carts directly to your table. The menu features small steamed and fried dumplings, rolls, and other Cantonese specialties alongside stir-fried dishes.
The restaurant opened in 1996 and became part of Chicago's expanding Chinatown dining scene. Since then it has contributed to establishing authentic dim sum culture in the city.
The restaurant centers on a dining practice where guests select small plates from carts wheeled between tables, a tradition rooted in tea service culture. This way of eating remains important to how people in the neighborhood gather and share meals together.
The restaurant opens daily and works well for groups since everyone can select from the same carts. It is best to arrive earlier in the day when the selection is wider and crowds are smaller.
A decorative replica of the Nine Dragon Wall hangs above the dining area, a symbol from classical Chinese architecture. This ornate reproduction creates a distinctive visual feature that sets the place apart from typical dim sum venues.
