Cantonese Restaurants in Burnaby, BC

“I was close by and came here for takeout. They have 20% discount for dine in before 11am and 10% discount for take out.

Food is good, I like it very much.

The restaurant looks clean not very worn.

Servers are quite abrupt and feel like they are rushing you but they are not rude.“

“Lee Garden is a reliable choice for classic Cantonese seafood and dim sum. The ingredients taste fresh, portions are generous, and dishes come out quickly, even during busy hours. Dim sum is consistently good, with a wide selection, and the seafood dishes are well prepared and flavorful. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size, and the dining room is spacious and comfortable, making it a great place for family gatherings or group meals. Service is efficient and friendly. Overall, a solid neighborhood restaurant that’s easy to come back to.“

“We had a lucheon provided by our agency for about 20 people. The assortment and quality of food was top notch. The food was hot and fresh with an abundance for seconds and thirds plus left overs. lol Everyone was very satisfied. Thanks to Chris and also the staff at Top Wok!!!“

“We’ve been here for dim sum a handful of times, and the food is consistently great. Service has always been good as well.

Unfortunately, during our most recent visit, we ordered the hot and sour seafood soup and found a very long black hair in it (and we are all blonde). We let our server know right away, and they were very apologetic and removed the dish from our bill.

That said, we were a bit surprised that nothing further was offered—no small discount or even a dessert on the house. While we appreciated the apology, it felt like a missed opportunity to go a step further in making things right.

A bit disappointing, especially when the “extra ingredient” definitely wasn’t something we ordered.“

“Great little cantonese eatery. This place is as close as you can get to matching Hongkong street stall food taste. I especially like their breakfast menu where the various options are affortably priced. I suggest you get there well before lunch time in order to get a parking spot and a table.“

“They had really good food, comfortable sitting, and the staff were really nice. Definitely recommend!“

“May Rice Roll & Congee Chinese Restaurant is a solid 4-star neighbourhood spot for a simple Chinese breakfast or lunch. The rice rolls and congee were fairly average, but it’s a good option when you’re craving something mild and comforting. The owner/server was very kind and welcoming, which added to the experience. Overall, it’s a cozy local place with a steady stream of regulars—nothing fancy, but dependable and relaxed.“

“LOVE the food and the service. Been going there for years. Big portions, great prices.
*edit* I’ve always had great service there, until yesterday. We had finished eating and I went to pay “the waitress looks at me after I paid and said ‘no tip?’ To which I replied “no, you didn’t even come and check if the food was good or if we needed a drink or anything” to which she then went on complaining to her co workers about me not tipping, in their language btw.“

“The rice noodle rolls are freshly made, but you can really taste the rice batter, which gives them a slightly unusual flavor that might not appeal to everyone. Overall, they’re just okay — not bad, but not great either. The Chinese donut isn’t the traditional Cantonese style; it’s more like a piece of fried bread, so I wouldn’t recommend it.

The egg and minced beef congee, however, is smooth, tasty, and well-balanced in flavor. It’s definitely the highlight of the meal and worth a try. Prices are quite reasonable, making it a decent spot to stop by for a comforting bowl of congee.“

“Still enjoy coming to this location. It’s spacious, easy parking, and the window seats have a nice view, which is always a plus.

The food is pretty consistent—nothing over the top, but solid overall—and service is reliable. I used to really like their signature desserts, especially the LV bag–shaped one that was super popular, but it seems they don’t offer it anymore.

Compared to other dim sum places, their plating stands out a bit more and feels less generic than the usual plain white plates. Flavour-wise, it’s about average, but as a chain in Vancouver, you know what you’re getting and the quality is fairly dependable.“

“Another solo weekend dim sum brunch, I was in the metro town area, that’s why I picked this one. Haven’t been here for a while, I remember they are not bad. I’m glad that they are still that way.

Food is pretty good similar to the level in Richmond and Hong Kong, may be a little bit below, but still pretty good.

Everything came out hot, Sui mai is pretty good, the BBQ pork rice rolls were good as well.

Service was ok, typical Chinese restaurant service level.

Decor is a bit dated. But overall presentable.“
