1. Ho Yuen Kee
Vancouver, BC V5W 3A1
Canada
(604) 324-8855
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Sunset
Some mornings I wake up and crave wonton noodle soup. Since I generally don't get to act on such impulses immediately, they build up over a few days until I can take it no more. Then I go to Ho Yuen Kee.
In addition to a bowl each of SLICED FISH…More »
2. Suhang Restaurant
Richmond, BC V6X
Canada
(604) 278-7787
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Golden Village
Reasonable prices, clean facilities, and good service from the elegant staff. Big flatscreen TVs project images of Suzhou and Hangzhou as you chow down on specialties from that region. (The staff are actually from there.)
We tried the HOMEMADE SESAME…More »
3. Red Star Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6P 4Z4
Canada
(604) 261-8389
Ultra popular dim sum palace. Too popular -- gets loud and crowded. But dang, the food is great. In particular, I think the chefs do a great job with their RICE NOODLE dishes. Yes, those thin almost translucent white sheets that can be wrapped around…More »
4. Fortune Garden Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6H 1H6
Canada
(604) 736-6868
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Fairview Slopes, South Granville
Always a reliable spot for Chinese food, either dim sum or larger dishes. The Peking duck is delicious -- furthermore, ask about the $9.99 Peking Duck special. Either you need to have $25 of other food or a certain number of à la carte dishes. Either…More »
5. Golden Paramount Seafood Restaurant
Since my Chinese family and friends frequent this establishment on a somewhat regular basis, I've had the opportunity to sample a wide range of dishes. Two disclaimers: (1) the prices aren't cheap, but you do get quality food and service; and (2)…More »
6. HK BBQ Master
Richmond, BC V6X
Canada
(604) 272-6568
Here in the Lower Mainland, if you know anything about barbecue, you know that it doesn't make sense to have places like Memphis Blues or Peckinpah. Hey, I'm all for some pulled pork sandwiches or Carolina-style ribs with some hot sauce and vinegar,…More »
7. Dynasty Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5Z 4J7
Canada
(604) 876-8388
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Fairview Slopes
Our family has dined at Dynasty Seafood Restaurant many times, always with great satisfaction. They offer most of the staple dishes, but dare to push the boundaries with some of their own creations. That's not an easy feat for Chinese restaurants,…More »
8. Koon Bo Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5W 2Z4
Canada
(604) 323-1218
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Riley Park, Kensington-Cedar Cottage
This oddly-placed strip mall corner joint is an old family favorite, although with a lot of non-Chinese press and clientele the prices have steadily increased over the years. Some dishes we order regularly:
* Hand-shredded chicken
* Roast duck
* Curry…More »
9. Come Along Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5R 5H2
Canada
(604) 439-1318
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Renfrew-Collingwood
My family used to frequent the Grand Honour sister restaurants at the intersection of 41st and Granville (the main seafood restaurant and the hot pot spot across the street). Then we stopped when the personnel changed. I can't believe it took us four…More »
10. BBT Cafe
Vancouver, BC V6M 3X1
Canada
(604) 266-2195
Category:
Taiwanese
Neighbourhood: Kerrisdale
BBT Cafe has managed to appeal to a variety of ages. It's not just kids who come here, but their parents, their parents friends, and even their grandparents. Thus, be warned: this is not the place to come with your secret boyfriend or girlfriend or…More »
11. Golden Ocean Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6M 1Y8
Canada
(604) 263-8886
This is solid dim sum, folks, and the prices are very reasonable, particularly if you come before 11:00 a.m. and get 20% off. You just need to be seated by then.
Also, it's one of the last dim sum restaurants to wheel dishes around on the carts. The…More »
12. Prince Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5M 2E1
Canada
(604) 430-6829
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Renfrew-Collingwood
Reasonable prices, generous portions, accurate taste -- Prince Seafood dishes up all your Chinese favorites in the grand fashion. They're set up for dim sum, banquets, large dinners, small tables -- you name it. Not what you'd expect from a strip…More »
13. Good Choice Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5W 2Z8
Canada
(604) 325-9788
Met up with relatives for a weekend lunch. Good choice? Good choice. In addition to the extensive regular menu, you can check off dim sum items on pink paper slips. The space is fairly cramped, particularly on a weekend. Good luck getting the…More »
14. Top Cantonese Cuisine Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5R 5H5
Canada
(604) 436-1623
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Renfrew-Collingwood
Super busy spot for dim sum! Like many popular Chinese restaurants on the east side, you get pretty good value for the food, even if you feel herded around by efficient if impersonal tag-team service. Regular dim sum dishes are well executed.…More »
15. Sha Lin Noodle House
Vancouver, BC V5Z 1E9
Canada
(604) 873-1816
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Fairview Slopes
Wow. First impression upon entering: SO MANY CAUCASIANS. I was comforted when I saw some other Chinese folk slurping away at their noodles.
You can see the guys behind the glass window making all the noodles fresh. Since I was dining alone (trying to…More »
16. Flo Tea Room
Vancouver, BC V6P 4Z2
Canada
(604) 266-1555
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Marpole
A reliable Chinese cafe with good food in a modern setting. The reasonable prices and extensive menu mean I don't mind coming here often. The CURRY BEEF TENDON is very good with rice -- super soft chunks of meat in a flavorful sauce. The BAKED…More »
