Juicy and relatively big xiao long bao (steamed pork bun), I believe it was 6 for $9.99, but a bit lacking in taste. The spicy wonton in chili oil was a bit better and it wasn’t too spicy and much tastier. The beef noodle soup had no much taste but the meat was soft and plenty. Overall, the food and service was just ok. It’s conveniently located by the Coquitlam Library and Coquitlam Centre. There is a covered garage for your parking needs.Parking: Parking at Henderson Mall

A good place to enjoy a quick lunch of Xiao Long Bao dumplings and Pan fried buns. XLB skin was not too thin/thick and the pan fried buns were light, fluffy, and crispy on the bottom with soup inside. Only thing is service could have been slightly better and waited a while for the pan fried buns.

I heard someone recommended that I try it, and it turned out to be really delicious. The dumpling skins and fillings are both good, and the xiaolongbao are also very good. Unfortunately, they are arranged too close together. The skin will definitely break when you take them out after steaming, and the soup will be all over. The dandan noodles are OK, the noodles are soft, the juice could be richer, and it’s not spicy for us. We have the dumplings as a set meal, and the red-oiled pig ears are not spicy either. My favorite is this small bowl of raw garlic sauce. It seems to have vinegar and sugar. Next time I will try the pan-fried buns and scallion pancakes.Parking: We parked in the parking lot on the second floor of Henderson Plaza, then took the escalator downstairs and walked outside.
A little shop that serves Shanghainese food. It's not a big place so be mindful if you have a big party (call ahead to book a table so they can arrange for one in the back). Their XLBs are pretty good and juicy as well as their pan fried buns. Their noodles aren't bad either but is a little bit bland. Just wished they had the pan fried turnip crepes as well. Their red bean crepe is good. I want to also mention they have a pretty good chicken nuggets and pork chops.Kid-friendliness: It's a small space but they have high chairs.
We ordered Pork chop noodles in soup $14.95. The staff served the chopped pork chops first without noodles. After waiting for more than 10 minutes, we urged the staff, and waited for another around 5 minutes. Finally we were disappointed as the served noodle was very less, soup was tasteless and pork was not yummy.The second dish was Boiled Chinese Chives Dumplings with Pork Ears on Chilly Oil $16.95. Portions were small too and the taste was averaged.We won’t recommend this restaurant to friends.

Hidden gem in Coquitlam! ? ? Tucked into the parkade entrance of Henderson Mall is this cute restaurant. AMAZING steamed xiao long baos with tons of soup (poke them first!) & pan fried dumplings. The beef brisket noodle soup is also good (flavourful & not salty) and definitely try the freshly made soy milk. Good service and prices!
If you want some tasty food, don't go there. Their soups are tasteless and have very little beef and vegetables. And their green onions pancakes have very little green onion and tooo much oil. We had to add a napkin under and on the top, as the napkin it was served with was liquidy in oil! And if you don't speak Chinese, better skip that place. It's not welcoming other nations and peoples.

I’ve passed by this area quite often and only recently realized this place has a new owner. The inside is not quite big but enough to take about two dozens of people at the same time. Typical like many Chinese business makes you feel the floor is sticky and greasy. Server is super nice and friendly.We ordered the Dan Dan noodle, spicy wonton, cold pig ear appetizer and fried bun. Overall tasty food? Dan Dan noodle is not authentic Sichuan style but cooked right with a hint of shrimp sauce. Fried pork bun is very juicy inside with crunchy bottom. Cold pig ear with the garlic sweet and sour sauce is perfectly balanced in flavour and also cooked right to maintain its crispy texture. Spicy wonton is also adequately seasoned and the stuffing inside is tender and moist.Compare this with the other similar restaurants in the Coquitlam centre area, this one so far I think is my favourite. Highly recommend ✌?Vegetarian options: Chinese restaurant always has vegetarian options.Parking: You can park in the same building or the Coquitlam centre parking lot.

Amazing Shanghai cuisine run by a few ladies. The lady who serves also helps prepare dumplings in the kitchen so sometimes it's hard to get her attention, but she's friendly and helpful. The buns and the dumplings are the star of the show here, especially the soup buns and dumplings. The only item I cannot recommend is the Dan Dan noodles. Needs more of the seasoning. Also tried the beef noodle soup, wontons in chili, beef and tripe in chili, and the fried pumpkin red bean cakes. All delicious. 100% recommend this hidden gem.
