Yan's Family Restaurant

I lived in China for 4 years Pre-covid. A friend told me about this place. Best I've had since I got back to Canada.

Always order ahead of the time, prefer to be a day before. Everything's freshly prepared so they like to give them a heads up to make. No matter what type of bun you choose, the best tasting bun you will have that no one come close in Edmonton.

My favourite restaurant to have Chinese bums!other dishes such as sliced beef and sliced tofu are also highly recommended,not too salty like other places,healthier choices for customers

The store is closed on Monday and the business condition in google is not changed, which makes people go for nothing.

Just finishing eating for the second time in as many days. This place is unreal. Takeout, debit/cash only. I suggest calling a couple hours ahead to order as the first time I went and hadn’t ordered ahead so just got whatever they had left (still amazing!). Prices are exceptionally reasonable. I highly recommend this place and will be back very soon (maybe tomorrow).

This bun is very delicious. Shredded potatoes and couple's lung slices are also highly recommended. The store was very busy and the store owner was nice but not very nice to talk to. Sometimes it takes a little patience to wait for the food, but it's delicious.

Delicious, delicious, delicious, delicious. The buns are soft and juicy. The only drawback is that they have to be ordered one day in advance. I have walked in several times before and have never been able to buy them.
The service is okay. If you bring your own bag and pay with cash, the boss will be very nice. If you don't bring a bag with cash, the boss may not be so happy.

Simply had some steamed buns...

You know the food will be good as soon as you enter. No way can some place that presents itself with such authenticity could be anything below superb. It's take-out. It's simple in nature. It's amazing in flavour and value.

Poets would write salacious sonnets signaling sincere sentimentality for buns like these.

A great poet once wrote: My anaconda don't want none unless you got the buns, hon.

There is no doubt he meant these buns in particular.

We tried this place for the first time after seeing posts about it online. We went around 5 pm without ordering ahead. You should pre-order if you are looking for specific items. We got the 凉皮 (steamed cold noodle)， 皮冻 (gelatinous pork skin jelly)，牛肉胡萝卜 (beef and carrot) , and 三鲜包子 (three delicacies buns). Definitely great value, the portions were really big for the price especially when compared to other dine in restaurants that charge more but give smaller portions. The buns had lots of filling and very thin skin (much better than buns that are mostly dough). I would definitely go back again next time I'm in the area.

Terrible food, terrible service. This is the restaurant with the worst service in Canada! The woman cashier is extremely mean and disgusting!

You'll likely have to speak Mandarin but that's a cheap price to pay for the most authentic Tianjin influenced Chinese food.

Best bao I’ve ever had!We got cabbage/pork and three delicacies.Both very goodStrong recommend!

Got told by someone to give it a try, so here I am a bit disappointed. I'm not sure if we just ordered the wrong food or something else, but I just don't get the hype. The beef noodles is too bland, and the noodles are soggy. I tried too many beef noodles, but this is positively not the best.Their dumplings look sad, but tastes a bit better than it looks.Service is so so, but the lady boss seems arrogant, or maybe just tired.Price is a tad bit too high for the value of food and service we got.
