Cantonese Restaurants near North Vancouver, BC

“Quite contrasting experiences in the reviews. We went for dinner last night an hour before they closed. Upon entering we were warmly greeted with a sincere smile. We had a couple of questions about the menu and our server was helpful.
The food was delicious. The beef was so tender. Wonton soup was terrific. The place was clean. Both people we encountered were very friendly. We both left so full, almost bordering on discomfort.
We also visited a few years ago and had a good experience also. The date has a special importance to us and the food and service added to that memory. A little expensive.“

“Great food and very friendly staff! We had a great meal this evening and were served by Bobby and another kind gentleman. Service was excellent, quick and efficient. I recommend the roast pork and the rice bucket was great for 2-3 people! Prices are very reasonable. This was my first time here after living in Vancouver for a year and I will definitely be back.“

“We have lunched and dinned here for decades, through changes and renovations.
The service attained and maintained a consistent level of efficiency and courtesy for the last 2 decades.
We enjoy the dim sums which are always delicate, light but flavourful.
For dinner, some spectacular dishes require pre-orders. We always enjoyed the braised duck on a bed of savoury mixed mushroom (forgot the proper name of the dish), and many more.“

“Havent been to this place since I was a teenager and it definitely lives up to the positive memories.

Great lunch combos with huge portions that are big enough to share, or save for later. The vegetarian potstickers and black bean spareribs were a a standout.“

“Came for Valentine's Day and we were not disappointed. A bit on the pricey side, but the restaurant was fully packed and we saw one table of over 15guests accommodated. The service, privacy, and food quality was all excellent. Check out the creative Mango pudding presentation! (It wasn't sweet at all).“

“Good food! Yummy!“

“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.“

“Chose this restaurant as I've followed the manager, Michael Kwok, around since his days at Floata, then Red Star, and now at Kowloon Delight. Hosted my son's high school grad family dinner, and recently mom in law's milestone birthday party. The Great: food is fabulous as confirmed by my very picky MIL and extended family. In particular, hot n sour soup is one of the best we've had. Service by Michael and servers is top notch (which is usually a bone of contention in a Chinese restaurant but not here). The Good: parking is covered as it's inside a plaza. So our elders w mobility issues had no problem getting to the second floor. Parking is free as well. The Meh: washrooms could be cleaner and should maintained throughout the night. Overall: absolutely will come again for another milestone event this year. This is my go to place now when I'm looking to host 3 tables of people (ie.30 people).“

“Typical hole in the wall Chinese resto that serves excellent dishes. I ordered fried squid and tofu in peppery salt and their scallop and egg fried rice. It was delicious and crispy! Price, quantity and quality is on point too. Love their food and will surely come back again. They have 3 reserved parking slots but you can also park on the side streets. I highly recommend this place. The even gave me a free small hot and sour soup which was awesome considering I am not a fan of this soup. The taste is good!“

“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.“

“食物好吃 服務也好 環境亦好“

“I guess this is a go-to-place for many for comfort Cantonese cuisine. With a large menu and combo options, it’s a good gathering place for family and friends to dine. Prices and portions are reasonable, and dishes are tasty. During busy dining times, there may be a wait.“

“We came to this food court for something else before and saw this place. We were very interested in checking this place out as well. We arrived a bit late like 5 pm and learned that their chicken had been already sold out long time ago.

We came back to this food court another time and had to try this place again. Surprisingly, they still had everything on the menu even though we were not particularly early this time.

We bought their signature shredded chicken home for dinner and it did not disappoint. The chicken tasted fresh and flavourful. It was also decently priced with a good portion as well! The chicken looked so delicious that I forgot to take any pictures!

Would definitely buy again if we were here.“

“Yes but needs better AC, otherwise everything is decent“

“For a restaurant featured on the Michelin Guide, Chef's Choice is a very solid restaurant all around. It's got a very nice interior atmosphere, with tasteful decor.

Quick and attentive staff and service, combined with incredibly good dim sum and other Cantonese dishes, which makes Chef's Choice my choice for Vancouver dim sum places.“

“We ordered the Two B.B.Q
Items w/Rice roast duck and soy sauce chicken —plenty of rice and the meat was delicious! The price is reasonable. I also recommend their Egg Whites
Fried Rice Dried Scallops，Generous portions.“

“They allow you to bring your own container(s), which is great because this place is take-out only! If you get rice with two ingredients, and possibly other combinations as well, they also include a few pieces of vegetables (yu choy 油菜) for you 😊“

“Good was delicious, very good service staff! Reasonable price too!“

“One of the few Chinese restaurant that still have dim sum cart going around instead of placing your order. Main advantage of dim sum cart is you can see how it looks like instead of just a dish on the menu. And you can have your favorite food right away.
Since their food is very reasonably priced so parking is challenging and you may have to wait over half hour during weekends lunch time. Waiting on Sunday started as early as 11am and still a line when we left before 2pm.“

“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!!!“

“This is a good dim sum place. They are giving 10% off and free tea. The food, the quality, the price and service are good.
I like the shrimp stuffed deep fried tofu. It's crisp outside but so tender inside.
If you like Cantonese dessert, you should try the deep fried sticky rice flour sesame balls. All the food come out hot and fresh. This is the most important part of Chinese food.
The deep fried fish is nice too since the batter is so light. If you prefer some rice, the chicken claypot rice is good. The left over rice that we bring home is enough for our dinner.
We should go support our local small business.“

“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.“

“Delicious!! The best Chinese food I have found in years! Loved it!“

“Had a wonderful dim sum experience at this harbor-side tea house! The food was absolutely delicious—each dish was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The atmosphere was so cozy and inviting, with lovely views adding to the relaxing vibe. Service was exceptional too; the staff were attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. A perfect spot for a leisurely meal. Highly recommended!“

“My first time having Hong Kong style French toast and I wanna go back for more! We also ordered bbq pork siopao, sweet and sour chicken w rice, siomai and mango pudding. We enjoyed everything and service was wonderful!

We went on a weekday evening and was not overly busy. We got seated right away and food came in timely manner.“

“Great Chinese seafood restaurant in East side of Vancouver. Quality is consistently good. Parking is available in front of restaurant. Ease to wheel in for the seniors.
Make sure you call to make reservations, it fills up early with long lineup which is the best indicator of good food around the world either Chinese or Western food.

You definitely will enjoy the food, guaranteed but you will be much poorer when you walk out“

“Reliable and consistent restaurant that you can always count on. Food is good and priced accordingly. Always hits the spot when you need a hot and fast meal. I’ve been coming here since it first open and it’s never a miss! Great space for all party sizes. The floors need a good scrub or deep clean but it’s the nostalgic feel of a good ol’ HK restaurant.“

“I wanted to introduce this restaurant today. Didn’t expect to find a place like this in a neighborhood mainly known for its gyms, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The menu is a mix of Cantonese stir-fry dishes and classic cha chaan teng items, plenty of variety.

What caught my attention today was their claypot rice. The restaurant itself is comfortabl e and spacious. The food quality is good, the portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable.

I ordered the chicken claypot rice with lily bulbs, wood ear mushrooms, and shiitake. The flavor was decent, though not exceptional. My only suggestion is to increase a bit the oil or water at the bottom to create a larger, more complete layer of crispy rice. The crispy bits were there, but a bigger, more solid crust would make it perfect.

The set also included a traditional Cantonese slow-boiled soup and Hong Kong-style milk tea. The milk tea was good, and the soup was excellent, full of ingredients like pork bones, chicken feet, dried tangerine peel, and peanuts. Very authentic.

For a small additional charge, you can add Hong Kong-style French toast as dessert. It was quite good, but deep fried it Longer would make it my ideal version.

Overall, it was a solid meal, and I’ll definitely return to try more of their dishes.“

“Wow this place blew me away! Very reasonable prices for very delicious food! Ordered the sirloin breakfast Hong-Kong style steak while the rest of my family ordered the beef congee and beef macaroni. We all really loved the way they prepared the beef because it was very tender and flavorful! Staff was also super nice! Only complaint is that the dining area had a stench but otherwise this is a great place so check it out!“

“Came here with a family of 8. Food is high quality. But you get what you pay for, so be prepared to spend at least $400-$500 if you are coming with a large group.

Dietary restrictions: Have veggie options but not recommend for hardcore vegetarians & vegans

Kid-friendliness: Yes.

Wheelchair accessibility: None. Disappointing but that‘s the only downside to this place“
