Firtsly - We love this restaurant, the food is absolutely the BEST you can get and we dine here quite frequently - my wife and I or with family.This afternoon we decided to dine here as my son is leaving Vancouver and he wanted to eat here before he left.So, 4 of us get there and order 16 items! Yes, we love so many of their dishes and don't mind taking leftovers for dinner.Today, however, was a bad experience by one of their servers. My wife likes to use a fork - she literally dumped it on the table (usually they use a napkin).We like to have a lot of chili oil with our food, so I asked them for 4 small dishes of chili oil..don't want to wait for refills...and it's never an issue. This same server rudely days "4? We will charge"Later we asked for soy sauce and she says "First chili oil, now soy?". Between our meal, I asked another server if they charge for additional chili oil and mentioned what the other server said; she said 'No we don't charge"Our bill ended up being $165..and there was $3 for sauce!!!REALLY?? If I come 8 times, and eat 2 items and ask for the sauce, I will get it, right? She continued to speak in Chinese and it was clear she was directing it at us.I usually tip 18% but this time felt no need to tip at all.The server immediately points out "No tip for this?"So, they feel entitled to get a tip even though they're being rude and petty about a condiment that goes with this type of food.I'm writing this review for the owner to know how his/her staff treat non-asian customers. It is racist and rude!!

Decent six person meal. Our family of four plus MIL & Bil had fish stomach soup, crab fried with spring onions, pea shoots, pork ribs in plum sauce, steam chicken - all pretty good as far as Cantonese cuisine goes. The fish stir-fry with olive leaves? this was one of our least favourite. The meal ended with red bean soup. Overall good & service rated good as general Chinese restaurants goes!!!

Great food especially deep fried tentacles and green bean with minced pork.

The place is busy and has a loyalty card where you can save 10% on your dim sum.The food has generous portions and is tasty, not the best in Vancouver, but it's good. The garlic gai Lan is very good with large quantities on the plate while not being overly oily with the garlic flavour. The deep fried taro was okay, flaky, but not enough filling, while the clay pot steamed rice with spare ribs and chicken feet was very good. The shrimp noodle was very nice tasting.All in all pretty good

The portion are large and the service is quick . The food is ok. We had the Peking Duck and it was good. House special fried rice was bland. E Fu noodles was pretty good . The place was busy on a Monday evening so that’s a good sign.

Ok dimsum... Not as flavorful the day I went and to me not worth the price for one dish

Ordered take out dim sum on Sunday April 24 2022. Sister started her meal with a steam pork dumpling or aka siu mai. She found a FLEXIBLE STEEL WIRE embedded within it! Always cut up your dim sum BEFORE eating! This is common practice when the kitchen staff are upset with management. The customers suffer. My family has experienced this shady behavior 3 times when eating in various Chinese restaurants over my lifetime.

I had DimSum afternoon.9-11am 20% discounts11-3pm 10% discountsfriendly staff and decent food

Got take out from this dimsum restaurant. Got 10% off for take out. Food tastes good. They were still hot when I got home. Package was good. No spill. Food was on time as promised. Will go back.

A family friend of ours in her 70s, who dines out several times a week, attests to this being one of the better Chinese restaurants in Vancouver and one of her personal favourites. Their Singapore noodles had a much more sharper curry flavour compared to other places, as well as comparatively larger portions for the price. The salted fish and diced chicken fried rice was tasty with actual chunks of the fish visible in the dish. Though I have yet to try it, our friend also said the dim sum is too. Will definitely be back the next time for lunch!
