The Dream Place - Palatine

Easily the best Chinese restaurant in the northwest suburbs! Their Peking duck is very authentic. A lot of special dishes are also good.

Authentic Chinese food in the northwest suburbs. We ordered popcorn chicken, spicy fry hot pot, lamb bao (weekend only special) and egg drop soup. Everything is flavorful, authentic and generous portions. The downside is that they seem to be a bit salty to my taste. The interior of the restaurant is very nice however the waiter we had didn't seem to speak English and was not able to explain the menu to my non Chinese speaking hubby. Overall I give it four star and would probably try again next time. Don't forget to visit the small Chinese grocery store in the same strip mall to support local businesses.

The restaurant is named as 桃花源记 in chinese. Food is good with reasonably price and comfortable environment. One of the best choice is their fried rice series.

Wonderful find! fresh and not salty like some you'll find. wish they had wine, but they are working on their liquor license, so you can bring a bottle in they said.

One of the most authentic Chinese restaurants around this area. We are happy with all the dishes we ordered and they gave you a lot of food with reasonable prices. Waitresses were nice and friendly. I would definitely come back again.
