Review from Odette C.
Vancouver, BC
Now it's actually Chiu Chow cuisine, not a HK style cafe. CASH ONLY !!!
Menu in Chinese only, though they can speak English and can recommend dishes
Must Eat...
Duck with special soya sauce (they put around 30 different herbs & spices in the soya)
Pig stomach soup with black peppercorn, the pig stomach is good but the soup was too spicy for me
Drunken crab, this dish you have to pre order.
Omelette with oysters, good but too filling. They put something in the omelette which makes it very chewy, like the Taiwan version. This dish should use the pearl oysters but I guess they chopped up the big beach oyster instead.
Noodle browned on both sides. Interesting noodle that had a crunchy top & bottom, noodles still soft inside. Taken with sugar & vinegar
Taro dessert (extremley high on calories) around $20 which is the most expensive dessert I've had.
We don't have too many Chiu Chow restaurants in Vancouver, their cuisine is so different than Cantonese. Worth a try. -
Review from Larry L.
Delizia, I heard that they won 3 awards for Chinese cuisine cooking and had heard that this was what some had called afancy HK style restaurant.
I have a feeling that the last thing they wanted to be known for is a fancy Hong Kong Style cafe, but I also had a feeling that to do the kinds of food they served, they really had to find a way to separate themselves from the tastes that probably made them famous in their cooking contests. So unfortunately with this review, I have to say that I am writing this with very little other than the dishes that we ordered and the flavours that we were trying to process.
The place looks quite nice inside, but then alot of them are looking pretty nice inside now, aren't they? There goes alot fo thought into the design of these new restaurants and it gives you the initial impression that the food will be just as good.
In fact, most of the Asian Fusion places that I have been to have had signature dishes there were pretty good. Only afew have I tried though have met what I would call definitive enough to separate themselves out from the rest of the crowd.
So Here we are, in what I called the red room (there was alot of deep red and black colours here). Waiting and hoping that this would be the place.
The menu was presentable with a mix of dishes that ranged from pasta to Szechuan to salads and a vegetarian section.
5 STARS for having a Healthy/Vegetarian section. I will have to try this next time.
So what did we have?
Szechuan chicken dish. spicy and oily and very tasty. I just wish Szechuan dishes were not so oily. Mind you they are meant to be eaten with rich and only a little bit of this dish would be consumed.
I ate most of it with no rice. :)
We shared each, A pasta dish and a Steak and Chicken dish which also came with pasta.
The Pasta we asked if it could be toothsome and they didn't know what we really meant by El Dente. They said they would try, but customers usually like their pasta soft. Mon dieu...sacrebleu I thought.
But they did it, sorta and the pasta was good, I'd say better than average for a HK Cafe style but it wasn't really a 5 star. Sorry.
The Meat dish was better. The steak and chicken were typically and sad to say again HK style dishes, but what separated this was the way they did the vegetables. They were not your frozen fare of peas and carrots. They were GOOD! Fresh and had Squash, and green veggies of all types. And they were tasty!!! If it was just the veggies alone, I'd give it a hard 4 and the meats were done properly but everything was cooked.
So the meat dish with veggies ended up being a 3 star. Still very very good, but still HK Cafe type of food.
They have done well, but with all the competition I'm not sure what they're real niche is just yet. Maybe they'll write me and let me know what the signature dishes are so I can come try them out.
it's happened before. And I would really love to try something that made them famous.
However, I also believe that if they put it on the menu, it should meet the same quality, standards and flavours that their signature dishes should be. Or at least aspire to be.
Maybe the next time I come, I will be wowed. Just like a certain cafe bistro that wowed me, not the first time, but the second time.
And so the story goes.
Please come and try it and tell me what you think.
Maybe this place is a wow. and I'm not talking video games. -

They grand opened in Sep or early Oct 2010, we went there for lunch today.
When I walked in to the restaurant, I found the design and decor quite modern.
They have your own combination menu in spaghetti and hot plate.
We ordered 1 appetizer and 3 dishes to share:
Peanuts with mouth watery spicy chicken - NOT spicy at all even sweet
Seafood fried rice in spicy Spanish sauce - enough seafood in the fried rice but the sauce taste ok.
Scallop and bacons fettuccine - taste very light
NY Steak & Chicken steak in black pepper sauce - it came in huge portion which have 2 chicken steaks & NY steak.
Free dessert - we didn't expect they gave us an ice-cream on apple custard. Yummy.

I went back on dinner on Sat night. We were quite disappointed this time.
The service was so slow and the foods just ok!!
We ordered the dine out menu - $18.
Truffle consomme - the soup was quite salty
Filet mignon with abalone - Mignon was marinated too much and chewy. The abalones were good.
I changed the cheese cake wrap to Tiramisu. It was awful!! I couldn't taste any brandy or espresso and it was too soft as foam cup (just like melting cream). -
Review from Janice L.
Richmond, BC
........The soups were so-so as they weren't very hearty and lacked vegetables. There were only a few pieces of cabbage and one piece of carrot in the borsch and only mushroom bits in the cream soup. The first thing to arrive after the soup and bread was my abalone truffle "spaghetti" ($15.85). This dish didn't come with dessert, but there was an option to add soup for $3.
Actually, it was more like fettuccine. But nevermind that. To my delight, it did come with 2 small sized abalone (which was actually quite generous in size) and truffles. It was my first time eating truffles, and I was quite surprised that the truffles bit were actually............
