“We joined the Estate Tour, and it was an amazing experience—highly recommended!
We had the chance to taste a wonderful selection of white wines, red wines, and, most importantly, their delicious icewine. A special thanks to Shirley, who was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and so generous with the tastings. She made the tour both informative and enjoyable.
If you’ve never tried Canadian icewine before, this is definitely a place worth visiting. I highly recommend booking a tour to learn more about the winery and experience their excellent wines!”
“Great decor, bright and clean. Friendly staff. Food was amazing and the dipping sauce was fantastic. We will be going back for sure. We tried regular and spicy broth. Wow spicy was too spicy for us. But the favour was nice. Note. Next we will get regular both, very tasty.”
“First time hot potting. The waiter was so helpful and the food was delicious!!! We will definitely be back again!”
“Spacious seating, yummy food and good value. My son loves this place!”

“The food and service were outstanding. After a long day of travel, the restaurant was a welcome rest. We sampled the prime rib, chicken wings, and wedge salad, all of which were tender and delicious. The staff were accommodating and attentive. We will definitely return on our next visit.”
“Wonderful food! the chicken and waffles are amazing! You Gotta eat here!”

“This spot serves up some seriously tasty pizza, with plenty of topping combinations to choose from. At $5 for a generously sized slice, it’s a pretty great deal. The crust is thin with just the right amount of chew, exactly the style I enjoy. Each slice has a subtle charred aroma that adds extra flavor, likely coming from the massive brick fired oven, you can even feel the heat radiating from it as the pizza comes out.”

“Great food , great friendly service and staff . This is the only Indian restaurant I will eat at in Steveston. Very clean too.”
“Amazing dinner and great service by team. They are really gem in richmond. Try tandoori chicken”
“I thought i had already written a review of this place but I haven't! I don't go anywhere else for my Korean food in BC. I literally haven't found a place that matches my palate as much as this place. Not just that, they are not stingy with their food! If you want seafood tofu soup, you GET seafood tofu soup. It's jam packed with goodies in the soup. Their seafood pancake is 🤤 not just a whole bunch of green onion and flour but an actual SEAFOOD pancake. And the servers, omg, they are fantastic. Every single one of them. They don't pressure you and just really let you enjoy your company. And our guy, I'm sorry I don't know your name! But you are always so delightful, happy and warm. You definitely make the experience better.”

“"Baan Lao took me on a remarkable culinary journey, featuring Chef Nutcha's, "A Taste of Baan Lao." Each course left me captivated, anticipating the next tantalizing offering. The wine pairings flawlessly complemented the flavours, enhancing the taste adventure. The attentive service staff provided a first-class experience, ensuring every detail was covered. The fusion of Thai and Canadian flavours showcased culinary perfection. Each plate presented an exquisite masterpiece, meticulously crafted as a work of art both in taste and presentation. It was impossible to choose a favourite, as every course was a delight for both the eyes and the taste buds. I wholeheartedly recommend Baan Lao as a must-visit destination. With its inviting atmosphere, exceptional dining experience, and unforgettable flavours, Baan Lao promises to create lasting memories for any food enthusiast. My compliments to the Chef and her team for the exquisite evening and the unique journey that I am eager to revisit! Thank you."”
“The food was excellent! You could really taste the freshness of the ingredients. However, the service was quite poor; we wanted to order but waited a long time without anyone coming over. We waved to get attention multiple times, but no one acknowledged us. Eventually, a male waiter took our order. It was the same situation when we wanted to order side dishes—only that one waiter paid us any attention, while the others seemed not to see us at all.”
“We’ve been coming here for years, and the Crispy Eggplant (风味茄子) is still the reason we keep returning. It’s hands down the best crispy eggplant I’ve had in Metro Vancouver—perfectly crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with flavor.
This visit, the Guai Wei Fish (怪味鱼) was a pleasant surprise and ended up being one of our favorite dishes. The Sheng Jiao Fish Fillet, dumplings, and chili oil wontons were all very good as well.
What makes this place special is the combination of delicious food, generous portions, and excellent value. We were sad to hear they may be closing at the end of the month. Restaurants with this level of quality and affordability are getting harder to find.
Hopefully they stay open—I’d hate to lose my favorite crispy eggplant in Vancouver! 🍆❤️”
“The restaurant is open and nicely decorated. Love the hotpot designs, very traditional chinese patterns. The 3-4 person combo is very reasonably priced and plenty of food for the 4 of us. Service was great and they were very attentive. 90 mins allowance for the meal.”
“We made a reservation for dinner on Apr 22nd because we went the weekend before and it was 1 1/2 hour wait. The food was really good but small portions. We booked for 5:30pm and left at 8pm and not by choice. We took our 7 year old. His food came within about 20-30 minutes. While we got our miso, edamame and salad one at a time, It took over an hour to get our BBQ meat, and longer to get our bowls of rice. 2 1/2 hours to get our bill (with me stopping someone to ask for the bill). Our son was super excited to cook meat but was getting upset with all the waiting. Quite honestly, the 2 adults with him were too. But I would give it a try again because the food was good”
“Tai Er is still one of my favourite spots in Richmond for Chinese sauerkraut fish. I remember coming here back when they were even better—using live fish and making their own sauerkraut in-house in those big jars. They don’t do that anymore, which is a bit of a shame, but the sauerkraut fish is still one of the best in Vancouver.
I also like that they’ve expanded the menu to include more Chinese stir-fry dishes. I also always order now the deep fried shirmp in mayo—it’s crispy, creamy, and absolutely addictive.
Even though some things have changed over the years, Tai Er is still my go-to when I’m craving that signature Chinese sauerkraut fish. Definitely worth checking out if you’re a fan of bold, sour, spicy Sichuan flavours!”
“Good breakfast options. Their seafood platter however (dinner menu) seemed a bit expensive for what you get. Otherwise, we have always been happy with the service and food.”

“Joban pawar was working the 4 PM to midnight shift at this subway. We talked about the World Cup, his favourite team, subway, etc. Joban made my subway experience exceptional, and I can only hope that his good work is recognized throughout the workplace. Shoutout Joban”
“I had such a great experience at this Subway today! The place was clean, everything looked fresh, and my order was made exactly how I liked it. The customer service here is amazing.
A special shoutout to Karam — she was super friendly, patient, and made my sandwich with so much care. You can really tell she enjoys what she does. Thank you, Karam, for the great service! I’ll definitely be coming back.”
“Piyush Gill provided outstanding customer service. He was approachable, respectful, and always had a smile on his face. He made the experience smooth and enjoyable by communicating clearly and making sure every detail was looked after. His dedication to helping customers and creating a welcoming environment did not go unnoticed. You can tell he takes pride in his work and truly cares about the people he serves. Thank you, Piyush, for making the visit such a positive one!”
“A very, very good airport coffee shop, with a chill area next to it to relax.
Espresso drinks are well made, and the staff are friendly, even for Canadians.
A macchiato is less than $4, and my butter croissant was on sale for 50% off. The prices for other coffee drinks are about $1 higher than in my local coffee shop, which is amazing for airport pricing.
I'm glad I stopped here.”
“Food wise i like premium plaza lounge with variety selection of food choice.
This lounge is more high end and quiet. Not many seats but that maintains the service. It’s worth to pay $5 to make reservation then disappointment. I was rejected to enter because it was full last time and i went to Plaza Premium. I can see why they need to turn people away.
They enforce 3 hours time and will politely remind you the time is up.
They target two different type of clients so pick and choose what we like to enjoy.”
“Anmol provided excellent customer service at Church’s Chicken. Very friendly, polite, and attentive throughout the visit. The food was served fresh and quickly, and Anmol made the experience welcoming and enjoyable. Great attitude and professionalism — definitely appreciated the service!”

“It was my girlfriend and I’s first time here and the food was nothing short of amazing! The beef stew was very flavourful and the spring rolls were fried to my liking- extra crispy. Our server Chris was attentive and helpful and we would definitely come back again.”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Been at all their locations, sometimes as part of a 10-person foodie group, trying to "test" this chain versus the "cannot be beaten" Fire Pizza before the owners became absentees. Generally, Uncle's pizza has better ingredients than others, e.g. Freshslice which is just about on every other block. The one on Broadway has consistently better ingredients. Other locations vary in ingredients. The Uncle's at Richmond skytrain has no nearby parking on a strip mall, but it had the best Qi according to a digital fengshui e-compass. This location is popular with Asian clientele despite the Asian eateries next door. The staff in Richmond is very hospitable and the layout is Feng Shui positive. Good job!”
“Lovely croissant, great coffee 👍🏻”
“Had the crispy cumin beef burger and the cold noodle with red oil. Both were excellent and the cold noodle had that familiar taste from when I used to frequent Xi'an Famous Food in NYC (this restaurant is not related despite the similar name). I recommend choosing at least a little bit of spice if
ordering the crispy burger.”

Fine Dining
“Since hubby misses Japan (the food especially) immensely, I decided to bring Japan to him for his birthday! It was more than we could've hoped for from the gracious hosts, Chef Ray and wife Christine, to the gorgeous presentation of each course, the preparations of each item, the texture, the taste and the cosy atmosphere. We savoured each bite, while enjoying the friendly banter between the hosts and a couple of their regulars at the bar seating. Highly recommend! side note: I was impressed by just how meticulous and thoughtful they are when I saw they even put a little decor under the washroom sink.”
“Must try potato pave and desserts
I got the hokkaido f1 tenderloin
It just melts in your mouth it’s so good!! I love the crispy sear outside. It’s full of flavour i didn’t even use the sauce. The meat speaks for itself, no need for the sauce. They do have a really good green peppercorn sauce.
Excellent portions, 8oz was enough for me. The truffle potato pave is so well made i’m at a loss for words.
Choco cake is friggin amazing. Never had anything like it. The balance from the yuzu and the depth of the choco sauce is exquisite.
Everything was perfectly cooked. Yunsu was our server, excellent service. He was very attentive and friendly. Thank you 🩵”
“Visited this restaurant during my trip to Vancouver and had a very enjoyable dining experience.
The food was thoughtfully prepared, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced flavors. The presentation was elegant without being overly complicated. What impressed me most was the attention to detail in both the dishes and the service.
The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, making it a great place for a relaxed meal with family or friends. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and professional throughout the evening.
Vancouver has many excellent dining options, and this restaurant stands out for its consistency, quality, and hospitality. I would happily return on my next visit and would recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.”
“Allan, Our well established server did an amazing job with our Dinner and his amazing service, I am naturally from the states so being able to visit was quite the treat, getting this personal experience from him was something I will always remember, being a chef myself, sitting on perspective of a guest and dinning was very special!!! Great food, great experience and I’d definitely travel back here for another amazing meal🫶🏼”

Cheap Eats
“What I got: mango mochi (8/10) - good texture, not overly sweet, good filling to mochi ratio but pricey
Notes: They have a 2.4% surcharge for card, $20 card minimum, preference for cash, you need to buy in increments of 4, and there’s only certain sets so you can’t get create your own set of 4. Also very limited parking.”
“Why do I keep going back? For that fresh cup of latte and the yummy baked goods! And of course, that warm welcoming smile! Can't beat that, eh?! 🥐😋💝☕️”
“Popeyes is our go to. I always go here because it's our family's comfort food especially my son. Jaspreet Kaur is so good at her job. She is efficient and knowledgeable. She always give me hot and fresh chicken as I requested, and it never disappoint our expactation. Kudos!”
“My rating is based solely on their Black Sesame Mochi Ball Bubble Waffle (what a tongue twister!).
I wasn't expecting it to be this good! The bubble waffle was light and slightly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not overly sweet. The mochi balls had the perfect chewy texture, and each bite was filled with a rich burst of black sesame flavor. It was the perfect balance of textures and sweetness. Definitely worth ordering if you're a black sesame fan!”
“I was passing Vancouver in transit on 20th July ,stayed overnight and went to the restaurant for having and taking away some chicken pieces for Saint John. NB as there was no P in Saint John. The girl at the counter was so courteous and very customer friendly .The service was very fast. The chicken was very tasty and crispy and prefect .I enjoyed very much and brought pieces to Saint John for my family.All were happy to eat them. I thank the whole team and wish you prosper .”
“Authentic Vietnamese dishes, tasty foods, good portions. 👍🏻 Salad rolls included special herbs (rau thom & he). 😋 Clean restaurant and nice services. 😍”
“Amazing pasta and service every time. Everything on the menu has been amazing so far. Must try dishes: Scallop Uni Cream Pasta, Black Garlic + Oyster Mushroom Pasta.”

“Outstanding friendly service from the enthusiastic and attentive staff❣️Above & beyond food especially the lunch bento❣️”
“Haven't been to Yuu for a while and we went back last week. Price didn't go up much despite the inflation. Kids order some special drink and the staff even gave them a small ice-cream cone to top it off. Great gesture. Would definitely be going back more often.”
“Great place we like it here very much, than you for opening until late at night. I recommend the spicy pork with rice, and the sausage & rice cake skewers. Friendly service, we learned that you can even call for birthday reservations, happened to see one table celebrating, they played happy birthday song video on their tv, then one of the owners lit the candle on the cake and put on a horse mask and sang happy birthday song again for them haha, and the whole place clapped, very heartwarming;)”
“Always great food consistency. Been eating there since they were in Vancouver. Definitely a favourite with our family.”
“About the same price as Big Way with the following advantages
-soup is less oily
-pure water instead of lemon flavoured water
-less people even during busiest holidays
-staff are nicer
-fruits”

“Beautiful setting, the best staff, great wine and delightful entertainment on weekends.”
“Friendly staff and I love all the foods , margarita Pizza is the best.👌😋”
“I was a little skeptical at first, but the food really exceeded my expectations. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the service was warm and friendly. They offer a very authentic Taiwanese beef noodle menu, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the food. I’d definitely come back to try more of their dishes.”
“The food tastes very good and everyone is so friendly and provide the high quality service”
“This place offers a great variety of dishes with a wonderful range of flavors. Their Sauerkraut Fish (Suancai Fish), Layered Tofu, and Spicy Rabbit with Green Peppers are absolute standouts—highly recommend trying them!
Although it’s a Sichuan restaurant, the spice level isn't overwhelming. It’s got that authentic flavor profile but is mild enough for anyone who enjoys a moderate level of spice. Definitely worth a visit!
Better to make an appointment before go there. It's very busy.”
“Possibly the best dim sum place I have ever been. Walked in at noon on a Tuesday. The carts came around in 1 minute to have our table filled. Great service all around. Constantly had my water refilled.”
“Absolutely amazing experience at Toko! Everything from the food to the service was outstanding. The dishes were fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. You can really tell that a lot of care goes into both the ingredients and the preparation.
What impressed me just as much was the service. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is also fantastic — stylish, comfortable, and perfect for a nice dinner.
Definitely one of those places you look forward to coming back to. Highly recommended, and easily a 5-star experience!”
“We enjoyed our dinner there. Big thank you to the staff, Fuji! He was friendly, courteous and helpful. He was attentive to our needs. Thanks for making our dinner so great!”
“Inside of the restaurant was tastefully decorated and quiet peaceful ambiance. The quality of the food was excellent. Each dish was carefully prepared and very tasty. All the staff were attentive and very polite and friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant!!👍👍”
“Wow the food is fantastic. It was very difficult to decide on what to try. I ended up with the “hot & sour dumpling soup” and the “beef slice in Chinese pancake.” Both are a must try.”
“During a recent business trip, I craved sushi and decided to visit Sushi Hachi because it was conveniently close to my hotel. It truly was the highlight of my trip. The husband-and-wife owners were incredibly warm and welcoming from the moment I arrived, which delivered an exceptional dining experience. This was easily the finest sushi I have experienced in Canada. Whether you are visiting the area for business or leisure, I highly recommend dining at Sushi Hachi.
Important Tip: Reservations are essential and should be booked well in advance to secure a table.”
“Spicy Pro Hot Pot 8542 Granville St, Vancouver, BC V6P 4Z7 Spicy Pro Hot Pot brings a unique and thoroughly enjoyable new dining experience to our neighborhood of Marpole. The aroma of the soup bases wafting from the modest storefront will stop you in your tracks and draw you inside. After choosing from a wide array of ingredients to add to one of three delicious soup bases, you can relax and enjoy the fun and cozy ambiance while the kitchen prepares your dish. When it arrives at your table in a generously large and elegant serving bowl you will immediately notice the care with which it has been assembled. Presentation is not lacking here and the money is being spent in the right place: the kitchen! I and my partner are not light eaters, and we come away stuffed and blissed-out for less than $50. The staff provide patient and thoughtful assistance to new customers choosing their ingredients and spice level for the first time. We love spicy food and usually order things hot, but the mild level is just right for us here.”

“Great food, the lamb shank and the rice are so tender and tasty. Clean and great service”
“Nice if you were open till 2 am like The Buck on Friday and Saturday nights, you'd get more business, people wanna party late! Otherwise nice place, family has been coming here since the 1960s.”
“Food is really good! You have your privacy too, 100% would recommend this restaurant”
“The great food and environment plus the friendly staff makes me want to go back to this place. I just wish that they start serving saffron rice as a choice.
I highly recommend this place!”
“I had absolutely great experience at Zodiac. Staff were so accommodating they went above and beyond expectations. Jenny and staff made the evening a fantastic time to remember. Highly recommended. I wish I could give more than 5****”
“I give this place a huge 10/10. Spencer was truly a gem! He was so accommodating and made us feel so welcome. The food was soo delicious, and the service was exceptional. I cant tell you how many times the staff came around checking in, cleaning up the table, refilling our drinks. They were all so friendly, especially with the kids. I will definitely be coming back.”
“The fish and chips are of excellent value compared with many seafood restaurants I have visited in the UK and Australia. Excellent value also with a relaxing outdoor atmosphere in Steventon. I would strongly this restaurant😀 to all my friends and anyone new to Vancouver.”
“The logo looks like a deli/meat store but it’s actually part of a chain. I haven’t tried the others (all a bit different) but this one came highly recommended by our foodie friends. Food: 5/5 - They have 12 must-order dishes including a fried eggplant 🍆 which was SO GOOD. A blast of flavour including spicy, savoury, sweet, and herb-y🌿? It was lightly fried and not too oily. Basically I loved it. Our second dish was not from the must-try only because I’m a huge sucker for sour-spicy clear noodles of any type. Although it was not as good as my favourite version of this dish from the Aberdeen food court (Sichuan style) HOWEVER Richie could actually eat this one because it wasn’t as spicy haha🔥. Essentially a “lighter” version but still packed with flavour. It came on a hard-to-reach, raised bowl but I think that’s easy enough to tweak. The restaurant is still new and feeling things out. Our last dish was an omu-rice mapo tofu (lol) and Richie loved it, “It hits the right flavour in every way - not too salty, not too spicy, great tangy-ness, a little oily but immensely appetizing.” The manager said that they make the chili oil and spices from scratch. Prior to our visit we also tried their “sauce duck” or 酱鸭 which is a “thick” soy sauce, sweet duck (think Cantonese/HK roasted duck but sweet) which might not be for everyone but it’s interesting and worth trying if you like food that’s both sweet and salty. There’s also a Nanjing salted duck that we’ll try next time😊. Service: 4/5 - There was only one server aside from the manager today but both were wonderful at checking in and very quick to react to our needs. It’s also the first weekend of “dining-in” again so I wouldn’t hold it against them. Price: $$ - They have a good mix of affordable and fancy choices alike. Ambiance: 3.5/5 - My only complaint is that it’s a too bright inside (I think mood is very important) and I’m not sure what they want to be. It’s not exactly fine dining nor is it casual, nor fun/hip. But the food is good enough that it doesn’t matter. I think we will enjoying coming here and slowing trying everything. #richmondeats #vancityeats”
“Food with an original Italian test, pomodoro, Basil, garlic, Santa Cristina’s wine available!!!!! It is like a trattoria italiana”
“Went here for their opening! Shaved ice is amazing!! Got the shrimp meal n that’s great too!! Good vibe! Good staff!!”
“Delicious afternoon tea set. Savouries are must try!”
“Great food and very good service, better than lots of Chinese restaurant out there”
“Fantastic waitress/ entertainment. Helen Keller, the longshoreman kept us going. 😁”
“Hands down the BEST Sushi restaurant in Richmond. Very authentic taste. Great price, great service, they even gave coins for the claw machine for my kids. Definitely worth a try!”
“First time in and YOU have to go! It’s the cutest little spot with amazing food in Steveston! The Jalapeño Margaritas is to die for. IT WAS FIRE!! The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience.”
“Second time here and wanted to see how their Bento boxes were.
Food was quite nice and Bento generously proportional to its price. The sushi and sashimi were fresh. A high 4 for food.
Service was acceptable considering only one person was running the whole place. Hot tea actively refilled. A solid 4.
Atmosphere was acceptable with this time the windows were boarded up. Washroom were decent. Other than that it is a high 3.
Would consider again if in the vicinity.”
“Ordered 2 signature set menu, gold and silver. Sashimi very fresh The skewers and the rice bowl and ramen came hot but by the time we finished the salad and sashimi the hot carbs gets lukewarm. Overall service is good. Will definitely come back and try their other stuff.”
“A good find. Small cute japanese restaurant serving japanese curry. I ordered pork cutlets and side of 2 prawns. Really good! Only thing i can say is the shereded cabbage is in small portion. All in all its a good food. pork is tender and juicy and yet crispy on the outside. Restaurant is clean with a nice simple decor!
Next time i crave for a japanese curry, I know where to go, HERE!!!”
“An enjoyable brunch time. Arrived right at opening hour, for a relaxing ambience with a marvelous, well thought out, fried chicken waffle brunch.
Each bite was a flavourful experience to the last. I look forward to coming back again.”
“Seafood platter and large clam chowder was delicious 😋 👍everything else is great, the place, fast service as usual. Kendra is the best, 👍👍”
“Food was very delicious. Everything tasted seriously fresh! At most other seafood restaurants that I’ve eaten at, you sometimes occasionally bite into or eat a bad shellfish which can ruin the experience. But this place, everything tasted fresh and not a single bad shellfish to be had!”
“Got some very delicious dolsot bibimbap! The waitress offered to refill my sides as they got low throughout the meal. Service was very fast! Would definitely come back if I wasn't visiting for work. It was a little expensive but I think I'm used to small town prices 😅”
“This food is insanely delicious! Just the thought of their duck burger and my mouth starts watering. Everything on the menu is amazing- even something simple like onion rings! They should warn you before your first visit because it won’t be your last - highly addictive deliciousness!”
“I really enjoyed the smoked salmon wrap and the couscous salad. I definitely recommend this restaurant at YVR.”
“We came in a night, had beer and a large bowl
Very spicy and delicious, service is good
Will return again!
The pork belly staff meal looks very good!!
Not on the menu yet...”
“Fresher ingredients used on average than competing East Indian lunch buffet restaurant in Langley city. Fresh tandoori chicken, fish and goat curries, fresh naan, hot chai tea, large selection of (pasta) salads, layers of flavour in gulabjamun, moist brownies, very friendly service, free parking and cool air conditioning. Shah-bash from my group of 3 for lunch. Will be back.”
“We went to celebrate anniversary with my wife and kids, great food great service and great dessert”
“Very authentic Shanghainese cuisine. Generous portions as well. Definitely one of our go to's.
If you are eating dinner there, I would strongly recommend eating the first round, so 5 or 5:30pm, because parking is very limited. There's also paid street parking on Alexandra Road.
Also make sure to make a reservation, especially on the weekends, to make sure you get a table!
One interesting photo to share .. the large wonton chicken soup is a sight to behold! The photo doesn't show how massive it is. It can easily feed ~12+ people with seconds to spare!”
“me and my girl went to this restaurant after watching Spiderman and our waiter isaac chen was amazing. that young handsome man was so polite and made sure to tend to our needs. I want to come again just to be served under him, he made my dining experience pleasant for both me and my girl.”
“Hidden gem in Richmond! ✨ The gamjatang (pork bone soup), soondae-guk, and grilled beef were all incredibly delicious. The owner was very friendly, and the portions were generous. I’ll definitely be coming back often!”
“Best tonkatsu in town, hands down! Our kids absolutely love this place, and it’s a family favorite for a reason. The meat is incredibly juicy and the crust is perfectly crispy every single time. Even though they are already super popular and busy, they truly deserve all the success. Highly recommended!”
“Must try potato pave and desserts
I got the hokkaido f1 tenderloin
It just melts in your mouth it’s so good!! I love the crispy sear outside. It’s full of flavour i didn’t even use the sauce. The meat speaks for itself, no need for the sauce. They do have a really good green peppercorn sauce.
Excellent portions, 8oz was enough for me. The truffle potato pave is so well made i’m at a loss for words.
Choco cake is friggin amazing. Never had anything like it. The balance from the yuzu and the depth of the choco sauce is exquisite.
Everything was perfectly cooked. Yunsu was our server, excellent service. He was very attentive and friendly. Thank you 🩵”

“The chicken, fires, and gravy are all Excellent! KFC style but so much better! So much better! Chicken is so tasty and not greasy. Fries are fairly thick cut, perfect for dipping in the slightly peppery gravy. I've only tried one of the salads once and it was better than the 2 national brands you can get in the grocery store. This is pretty much a walk-up/take out restaurant (especially since covid--no eat-in anymore). I've only seen the same two people working there all these years. Brother/sister or husband/wife, I assume? They are hard workers putting in long hours 7 days a week. No money has been spent on the "dining room" or menu boards. LOL. They take cash and debit (credit??). Their debit machine has no tap function and is dial up so you need your PIN and a bit of patience. That is also way phone calls don't go through. I have never tried to pre-order by phone. Usually only takes about 10 min to get your order anyway. Can't recommend them enough. When family/friends come into town, I try to make sure we get LA Chicken for them while they are here.”

“Good food, friendly and helpful staffs. Thank you for your excellent customer service this morning when we bought food especially the lady in the cash register with a big smile who gave balloons to my kids and my friend’s children, and the other lady( Ganan) who helped us with our order, provided bag and even arranged our food inside the bag. I highly recommend this place.”

“Allan, Our well established server did an amazing job with our Dinner and his amazing service, I am naturally from the states so being able to visit was quite the treat, getting this personal experience from him was something I will always remember, being a chef myself, sitting on perspective of a guest and dinning was very special!!! Great food, great experience and I’d definitely travel back here for another amazing meal🫶🏼”
“Tried this highly rated Seafood place tonight. Ordered the Spicy Stir Fried Manila Clams and the Seafood Fried Rice. The Clams were fat and juicy, and a lot of them, the sauce was great. the Seafood Fried Rice was OK, lacking a little flavour so I put the sauce from the clams on the rice. All in all, pretty good, one of the coolest Chinese restaurants I’ve been to.”
“Angel Makes This Nando’s Exceptional!
My family and I travel to this Nando’s location not just for the food, but for the exceptional service we’ve always received from the staff—and especially from Angel and Zoha! Their friendly smile and outstanding customer service truly set this place apart.

The girl at the counter was so courteous and very customer friendly .The service was very fast. The chicken was very tasty and crispy and prefect .I enjoyed very much and brought pieces to Saint John for my family.All were happy to eat them. I thank the whole team and wish you prosper .”
“First time trying this place and none of us left disappointed. We went with the Diamond Menu and loved that they offer a birthday perk - the birthday person dines free with three other adults.
Service was fast, and all the dishes arrived as ordered. The lobster and ice cream were included in the menu, though both were limited to one serving per person.
The food was enjoyable overall, but the flavours were quite intense - we were all very thirsty afterwards.
Still, a solid experience and a great option for a birthday celebration.”
“Food wise i like premium plaza lounge with variety selection of food choice.
This lounge is more high end and quiet. Not many seats but that maintains the service. It’s worth to pay $5 to make reservation then disappointment. I was rejected to enter because it was full last time and i went to Plaza Premium. I can see why they need to turn people away.
They enforce 3 hours time and will politely remind you the time is up.
They target two different type of clients so pick and choose what we like to enjoy.”
“Yin Ji Chang Fen is one of the best places for Cantonese rice noodle rolls in the area. The rice rolls are silky smooth, made fresh to order, and the sweet soy sauce is perfectly balanced. We tried the shrimp and beef rice rolls, and both were packed with filling and tasted authentic. The congee was also rich and comforting. Service was fast, and the restaurant was clean and well organized. If you’re craving traditional Cantonese breakfast or comfort food, this place is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be coming back to try more items on the menu!”
“Overall, a good experience at this Tim Hortons. The staff were friendly, my order was prepared correctly, and the restaurant was reasonably clean. Service was decent, although there is still some room for improvement during busy periods.
Nothing exceptional, but a solid and reliable visit. I would stop by again.

“I have tried all the jasmine milk teas from the shops around the area and I can say with confidence that chahalo’s jasmine green milk tea is has the thickest tea flavour (some jasmine milk teas i’ve had taste quite watered down and not that good, but i don’t have that problem here at all) and is overall the best tasting. i would recommend taking 50% sugar here though because the 70% sugar was quite sweet. the prices are not that cheap but honestly if you are in the mood to have some expensive milk tea this is the best place to be.”
“Great ramen spot at McArthurGlen Outlets in Richmond! Ordered the pork original ramen and the pork original with cold noodles. Really good noodle texture and generous portions. Everything was tasty and satisfying. The cha siu was super tender! Tip download the Kinton Ramen app for a free appetizer. Would definitely come back!!”
“Had a nice experience first time trying Milky Snow today. We were looking for something light and coffee and it was the perfect place. Owner(?) lady was very nice even though she was all by herself. We were relaxing with our dogs and had the chicken sandwich, fish waffles and two lattes they were all very good. Will come back again!”
“The best food from food truck! Not even a single thing that doesn’t remind you of India . We even ordered kulcha Channa and paneer burger again. That good! Ordered steam momos, kulcha burger and fries were unexpected with burger but the best! Would highly recommend it!!! Loved it ! Thank you”
“I was a little skeptical at first, but the food really exceeded my expectations. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the service was warm and friendly. They offer a very authentic Taiwanese beef noodle menu, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the food. I’d definitely come back to try more of their dishes.”
“This place offers a great variety of dishes with a wonderful range of flavors. Their Sauerkraut Fish (Suancai Fish), Layered Tofu, and Spicy Rabbit with Green Peppers are absolute standouts—highly recommend trying them!
Although it’s a Sichuan restaurant, the spice level isn't overwhelming. It’s got that authentic flavor profile but is mild enough for anyone who enjoys a moderate level of spice. Definitely worth a visit!
Better to make an appointment before go there. It's very busy.”
