I used to like this place, but the last 2 times I've ordered food from here, I threw up twice a few hours after consuming the food. Not sure if it's their chef or if it's their ingredients. Did this happen to anyone else?Edit - I think it may have something to do with this restaurant's crab meat. Both times I've ordered food with crab from this restaurant in the last 3 weeks, I threw up both times. I had ordered other foods from this restaurant in the last 3 weeks, but I was fine. I really want to know if anyone got sick eating from this restaurant in the last 3 weeks, especially if you've had crab meat in your food.

Food is great, but customer service is lousy. Typical noble China style. If you expect to be treated as a customer, this is not the place for you. They don’t greet you, no thank you to you and disregard your comments.Dim sum quality is good, but prices have gone up by $3 per dish since the pandemic. Very luxurious to dine at this restaurant!We have been here for banquet dinners a couple of years back. Dinner dishes are good too.

We ask about a few dishes and she (Mona)ordered 6 large/huge serving dishes without telling us. Though mostly delicious but obviously too Much food and with steamed rice. She even gave us the wrong food with the fried squid which we never ordered. They would not tell us what she ordered. The other waitresses apologise but did nothing else. Mona avoided us and she is obviously the manager of the restaurant. I think she should ALWAYS repeat the order rather than try to get maximum orders out of the potential customers. 11/3/22 7pm. We even spoke Cantonese to her. She’s sure is curtly and no words spoken

Had a very enjoyable time here eating some authentic hong kong dim sum. Ordered a few dishes to try but my personal favourite would be the 年糕。Recommended to visit if you are ever craving for some dim sum while in Vancouver!

We love this restaurant!! Every item we ordered was fresh, hot and had delicious flavours. The BBQ duck was exceptional. Gorgeous subtle flavours. The Victoria special Chow mein had lots of seafood, great texture with crispy and soft noodles. Best shrimp dumplings we’ve ever had. Large, juicy and packed with flavour. No disappointments at this restaurant. An added bonus is that they have gorgeous, immaculately clean bathrooms.

I ordered 'Steamed Shrimp Dumpling' and 'Fried Rice Noodle with Beef in Soya'. Dumplings were not so bad, but I don't think they made them. And the noodle was disgusting, very oily and not tasty at all.I paid more than $40, so this restaurant is overpriced for this quality of food

Good dimsum place! Serves dimsum all day! Good portion size and price is decent. Service is quite fast upon ordering. Only complain is the steam dimsum isn't hot enough personally. Would come back again for dimsum fix!

Good and tasty, but luxury prices.

Good dim sum and friendly service.
