Triple Crown Restaurant — solid, no-fuss chinese in Chinatown. Order the dim sum. Good energy here, especially on weekends. Good value, moves fast. Moises Treviño Garcia: "The meat was crazy tender and juicy, and the sauce had this smoky, sweet punch that just worked"

“My friend took me here because he said this was his favorite restaurant in Chicago so I had very high expectations and I was not disappointed”
When the food finally arrived it was just OK. Nothing special there are better places to eat all over Chinatown.
The food is overrated here, except for the rice roll. The roasted duck seems to be overcooked and isn’t juicy at all.

“Triple Crown on south Wentworth in Chicago creates a wonderful feast.”
Triple Crown on south Wentworth in Chicago creates a wonderful feast. The atmosphere and acoustics make dining and conversation pleasurable. The service is extremely attentive and courteous. Also, the tender Chicken w/Mushrooms, Shrimp w/savory noodles, Dumplings, authentic Egg rolls, and succulent Mongolian beef were all delicious 😋 It's easy to over eat here!

“I’ve been ordering takeout from Triple Crown for a while, but this was my first time actually eating there.”
I’ve been ordering takeout from Triple Crown for a while, but this was my first time actually eating there. And yeah… big difference. The vibe inside is really good. Feels lively but not chaotic. Staff is super friendly and straight to the point. No small talk, no waiting around. You order, they bring it out. That's how fast they are. I got the sizzling soy glazed beef short ribs or the number 74 and wow. Honestly tasted way better eating it there than at home. It came out sizzling hot. The meat was crazy tender and juicy, and the sauce had this smoky, sweet punch that just worked. Not too salty, not too sugary. Just right. I cleaned the whole plate and still wanted more, which says a lot. Portions were solid too. Only small thing, it was almost too hot to start eating right away. Overall though, everything we order was really good food. I’ll be definitely coming back for more.

The dim sum is perfectly authentic and tastes just as great as any cantonese restaurant in Hong Kong, whilst providing terrific value for money. We are shocked by the fantastic value and the interior is overwhelming with Chinese decor so much so that it screams American Chinatown but hey that's why we're here! Best dim sum!

“I love late-night Triple Crown chowdowns.”
I love late-night Triple Crown chowdowns. Walk up the switchback staircase to the second floor dining room and get set for a fun dining experience. The menu is extensive, with a variety of regional dishes as well as the usual suspects: orange chicken, szechuan beef, fried rice. Dim sum is available too. I'm a seafood guy, so I usually go for one of ther scallop or squid dishes - salt-n-pepper style being my fave. You can also get whole fish cooked in various styles, which is always a nice landlubber flex. Portions for all dishes run large and heaping, and I often take leftovers home for lunch next day. The atmosphere of Triple Crown is buzzy but informal. You'll see multi-gen families arrayed around the circular tables, hipster couples sharing plates in the cozy sidetables. If you can, grab a window table, and feel like you're hovering over the street action on Wentworth below as you eat. Finally, if you happen to be in Chinatown for the Chinese new year's parade, TC is a great post-parade lunch option -- *if* you can get a table. The New Year dragon dances its way up the stairs and puts on a private show for patrons, a memorable dining experience for sure! But don't wait for Chinese New Year to go to Triple Crown. Its delish year round!

“Oh Triple 👑👑👑 Crown, how I love thee!!”
Oh Triple 👑👑👑 Crown, how I love thee!!! ❤️ #Chinatown #TripleCrown # ChicagoStaple!! Saturday evening dinner 🍽 was divine! Mongolian Beef w/steamed white rice, crab rangoon, and 10 items of Dim Sum later, our bellies were full & happy! We washed our meal down with Gree Tea and were so satisfied! Wait time was 20 mins or less. We parked in the lot off busy street. We got a window seat to our delight 😊 Meal was so affordable totaling $78.03! Thank you and your staff for providing a wonderful experience with quick service and great food!!! Like always, we'll return!

“Excellent food and service.”
Excellent food and service. We were lucky enough to get a table in the 2nd story dining room overlooking the street. Food was fantastic. We ordered the poo poo platter, sizzling beef ribs and some soup dumplings. Many of the restaurants in Chinatown are good and this is one of the places that really stand out. Had to wait about a half an hour for a table but it was well worth it. Will def eat here again on our next trip. Top Notch East Asian food.

“When going to Chinatown, this is the a go-to place for some good-tasting grub.”
When going to Chinatown, this is the a go-to place for some good-tasting grub. It never disappoints when it comes to quality and quantity. I always leave with my full belly and satisfied. Last time I was there, I waited 30 minutes to get in but it was a lunch hour on a weekend day. Otherwise, the turn over is really quick. One thing that needs improvement is the restrooms. They are very small for the amount of people that dine there.

“My friend and I visited this place on Tuesday around 2 PM, so there was plenty of seating available.”
My friend and I visited this place on Tuesday around 2 PM, so there was plenty of seating available. The food here is excellent! I highly recommend trying it when you're in Chinatown. We didn't order the typical dim sum, so I can't comment on that, but we did have sizzling Szechuan tofu, salt and pepper string beans, XO sauce clams, and soy sauce chow mein noodles. It came with a bowl of white rice, and everything was super tasty and well-seasoned! Our waitress was super attentive, always making sure our water was full and asked if we needed anything else! I would definitely come here again when I'm in Chinatown.
