For top-tier, inventive dim sum, head to … Sky River Casino? Yes, really.
The Wilton Rancheria’s Elk Grove casino is home to 2,100 slot machines, 80 table games, and Dragon Beaux, Willy Ng and Jenny Huang’s celebrated Cantonese restaurant based in San Francisco.
In fact, Sky River…is the only place outside of the original Richmond District location to find Dragon Beaux’s sun-dried abalone shumai (three for $16), lobster har gow (three for $12) and chow fun with American Wagyu beef ($29). The restaurant just celebrated its two-year anniversary Jan. 12, while the San Francisco pioneer will turn 10 later this year.
Ng has opened restaurants inside Las Vegas casinos but Sky River was his first tribal-owned venture.
