Lakeview Palace
Golden chandeliers, emerald-green tassels and oversized vases bursting with colorful bouquets mark the dazzling entrance at Lakeview Palace. As soon as you catch a glimpse of the stunning décor, you know you’re in for a treat.
At this majestic restaurant within Wynn Palace in Cotai, the menu will take you on an innovative exploration of Chinese culinary traditions and Western techniques. While most dishes are rooted in Jiangnan cuisine — a subtle, delicate style of cooking from the Yangtze River region — you’ll also notice clear influences from Sichuanese and Cantonese traditions, plus French influences for an altogether novel experience.
Add lavish interiors, views of the resort’s Performance Lake and floral art all around, and Lakeview Palace shines in Macau’s highly competitive Chinese dining scene.
- The Jiangnan restaurant’s décor immerses diners in a whimsical palace, where a bright palette of green, gold and white feels grand and playfully luxurious — just like Wynn Palace.
- The views are mesmerizing: Curving floor-to-ceiling windows peer out over Performance Lake, and the colorful light and water shows provide background entertainment while you dine.
- The Chinese wine-pairing experience is a must. It showcases some of the best vintages coming out of China today, from fruity Ningxia chardonnays to bold, jammy Shandong cabernets.
- If you like tea, dining at Lakeview Palace will be a treat. A resident tea sommelier is at the ready to select the perfect pairing of exclusive Chinese teas for your meal.
- The service is attentive. From the moment you enter the vibrant restaurant, warm staff members go the extra mile to ensure you have a memorable dining experience.
- In addition to the innovative à la carte menu, Lakeview Palace also does one of the best dim sums in Macau with traditional bites from Shanghai, Jiangnan, Sichuan and southern China. The hot-and-sour Shanghainese pork dumplings and Sichuanese mala beef puffs are must-tries, though you really can’t go wrong.
- Refined and nuanced, Jiangnan cuisine emerged centuries ago around the Yangtze River in former seats of power like Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou and Suzhou. Centuries of tradition culminate in traditional dishes like the sweet-and-savory stewed Shanghainese-style pork belly — the textural and flavor contrasts require much finesse to make this specialty just right.
- Regionality is key to Jiangnan cuisine. Don’t miss signatures like the excellent cold-marinated abalone. The delicacy is procured from the Dalian province and served here with pickled French fennel bulb, housemade chili sauce and cucumber gelee.
- While much of the Macau restaurant menu features subtler flavors, Lakeview Palace also offers a selection of dishes representing the zesty cuisine of Sichuan. That includes standouts like traditional poached sliced beef in chili oil and thinly sliced Japanese amberjack drizzled with sesame chili oil.
- Whatever you order, you’ll quickly find the chefs like to enhance their dishes with Western influences, specifically French. Whether it’s the classic presentation or dishes like the drunken blue lobster, these disparate traditions sync up in harmony.
- For a real showstopper, order the fortune chicken (24-hour advance notice is required). Also known as beggar’s chicken, the dish features a whole chicken stuffed with wild Yunnan mushroom ragout, wrapped in pastry like a Wellington and cooked low and slow.
