I came to dine in at noon and ordered spicy chicken shredded cold noodles. It tasted good. The boss also gave me two cloves of garlic. The beef brisket noodles ordered by my friend were also pretty good?

it doesn't look like much, but the food is very authentic! big fan of the spicy cucumbers, and the sour and spicy soup is not too spicy which was great.

Luo si fen was not so authentic but the roasted duck was pretty good. I also liked their service so my rating went up 1 star just for the service.

The food seems pretty authentic. The item I tried was pretty good. Prices quite reasonable. Definitely would suggest trying for people who enjoy spicy authentic Chinese food.

Boneless chicken thigh rice noodle and minced pork rice were very good. Wife and I will come again to try other dishes! Recommend ordering the milk tea as well!

MaMa Rich is the hidden gem near Metrotown that you didn't know you needed to try. Serving the Chinese dish from Guangxi "River Snail Noodle" (luosifen/螺螄粉), this slightly pungent but delicious dish is quite unique. The base of the soup is made with escargot and then has actual escargot, meats and other vegetables inside with a dazzle of spice. Protip: you can customize the spice level to your liking! I also recommend the mouthwatering chicken (koushuiji/口水雞) which also has a delicious chilli oil spice. Service wise, this restaurant is pretty small and is more of a no-frills service. There aren't a lot of tables so things shouldn't take too long but the usually aren't to many staff on shift. For the price, I think the value makes sense for a rather uncommon dish. Overall, a great choice if you're in the Metrotown area and want to try something new!

Best Koushui Chicken I’ve ever tried

Large portions and noodles come in a very flavourful soup base
Poor food. To be honest it was pretty awful, poor service as well

The braised chicken was slightly too salty but that could be the way that it's traditionally meant to be, since the dishes are all very traditional mainland China dishes. The waitress is very sweet, polite and attentive. Prices are reasonable. I would come back here again!

Braised chicken with rice was decent but only a bit rice. Sour and spicy noddle was tasty and enough portion but if they put nuts in it then it would better taste. The mama’s special milk tea was not bad, unique flavour and less sweet. I recommend this milk tea.I only dissatisfied with the “pork buns”, the bun was hard as a stone. Can not even chew.

Has been one of my favorite restaurant for 5 years. Especially like the warming environment and service there, and the food perfectly fit my taste all the time.

Wonderful tasting river snail noodles known as luosi fen. The soup uses river snail as base and have other ingredients to help provide a rich taste. Highly recommend to go here and try their noodles as other places in the lower mainland that offer the same noodle lacks the depth in taste or outrageously uses a different soup base and claim it is luosi fen.Their wontons are fresh and house made. The taste and and texture is decent. My kids love the wontons here but I don't find it particularly memorable.I like their chicken. The only downside is I find the chicken overcooked and the sauce slightly too salty standalone but great with rice.
