Dim Sum Restaurants near North Vancouver, BC

“This restaurant is not an American (Canadian) Chinese food restaurant. They have some dishes but I recommend the ones where the flavors are more representative of actual Chinese cuisine over the Pacific ocean.

Dining is also typical Chinese style meaning family style. You order many dishes of chicken, pork, beef, fish and veggies and share it with the entire table along with rice.

As long as you understand this then you'll realize it's one of the best Chinese restaurants on the North Shore.

I'm glad that throughout the decades, they've stayed mostly true to the feel and flavours of ethnic Chinese instead of diluting the heritage to fit the different expectations of the local crowd.“

“We came for dinner and we were seated quickly. The restaurant is small and was almost a full house. Our server was super friendly, attentive and explained the menu to us since it was our first time. The portions are large, hot and if you order spicy level 3, it will be caliente

We ordered the following noodles bowls:

A09 Vegetable Soup Noodles CA $14.95 with a side of soft boiled egg CA $3.00
Spice level 3

A01 Signature Taiwanese Beef Noodle CA $18.95
Spice level 2

I learned that peppercorn makes your tongue feel kinda numb and is suppose to add to the spiciness. We had a great dinner and the noodles were super tasty. I was so full!“

“Came for the Tuesday night Peking Duck special. All the food was excellent, as usual. Service was prompt, and pacing was great. Quality of ingredients was top notch in all the dishes.

If you park in the orange area of the parking garage and give them your license plate and stall number when you check in, you get free parking too!“

“Here's a natural, positive Google review you can post:

“Amazing food 😋 and amazing staffs😊“

“食物好吃 服務也好 環境亦好“

“The traditional dim sum dishes were very mediocre, some of their more unique dishes were better. I definitely won’t be back for their dim sum though.

However, I did see their classic Cantonese dinner menu and that looks great. I would return to try their dinner.“

“Literally THE best family business and amazing food. Everything is made on-site. The packaged dim sum may be frozen, but don’t let that fool you one bit- it packs a hefty punch of flavour! My favourites are the ha gow, pork and shrimp siu mai, beef meatball, shrimp wonton, pork beancurd, vegan mushroom dumpling, turnip cake, pork and chive dumpling, lotus leaf wrap, blackbean sparerib, chicken feet, mung bean sticky rice, BBQ pork bun(best in the city), salted custard bun, red bean bun. My grandma’s favourite is the peanut sticky rice wrap. She said they taste just like the ones her mother taught her to make, so you know they’re super authentic!!! Shop local, support legacy businesses, and save Chinatown!“

“Yessir. Food is great quality and delicious af“

“the food was amazing 👏 we will definitely be bak!“

“My favorite restaurant ive been to in Richmond. The food is phenomenal, especially the signature fish on the menu. During our visit here, we've gone twice for dinner. Prices are reasonable for the quality as well. Some waiters only speak Mandarin.“

“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!!!“

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

“Found a gem at Broadway. Introduced to this Chinese restaurant as I was in the vicinity and their food quality was impressive. Ordered their famous dumpling soup and prawn toast. Their char siew are tasty too.

Chef’s Choice Seafood Restaurant is a solid choice for classic Cantonese dining and it is easy to see why it has earned recognition in the Michelin Guide. We ordered several dim sum dishes, along with the soya sauce chicken and deep-fried pigeon. The dim sum was well executed, with fresh ingredients and traditional flavours. The soya sauce chicken was tender, juicy, and nicely seasoned without being overly salty. The highlight was the deep-fried pigeon, featuring crispy skin and succulent meat with plenty of flavour. Service was efficient despite the busy atmosphere, making it a satisfying meal for both locals and visitors.“

“Wow the food is fantastic. It was very difficult to decide on what to try. I ended up with the “hot & sour dumpling soup” and the “beef slice in Chinese pancake.” Both are a must try.“

“Hong Kong style dim sum. The quality is excellent. The wrapped sticky rice is delicious 😋 港式點心，真材實料。個懷舊糯米雞好正😋“

“Unfortunately even the piping hot food didn’t stop us from eating everything so fast that there was not enough time to take any photos.

Thank you for working a stay holiday and making fresh and delicious food! Very friendly service.“

“Good service and delicious foods“

“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.“

“Newtown reminds me of the old day's in Chinatown.
Great food.excellent service.lots of bakery items.great menu.
The big one is they do not except CREDIT CARDS.
There also open at 6:30 am for the early birds like us..very busy at lunch time.
They offer every thing you would want at a bakery with lots of seating..
Keep it up.. 💯
The CONGEE is excellent too.😁“

“Great service and delicious, flavorful food. Everything we ordered tasted so good, packed with big flavors.

Our favorites were: choysum with garlic and pork fat, salt and pepper tofu, and thick, square looking chewy clear noodles with x.o sauce.

Highly recommend 👌 👍“

“First night in Vancouver and this was our first dinner — cannot be happier! We ordered these two dishes, baked rice and fried prawns and it was so flavorful which got me wanting to order more. They were very big portions so we didn’t get to and I wish we were staying in Vancouver longer cause I’d definitely come back. My family is from Hong Kong so I know what’s considered good HK food. The restaurant was empty but don’t let that fool you into thinking the food is not good. The chef, who is the owner, shared that the neighborhood in general has been pretty dead the past year hence the emptiness on a given night but I can say the food is amazing and the service is just as great. The waiter was attentive and so was the chef. He offered other options of making the prawns for us which was nice. He also engaged with us and was super friendly. All in all, great experience, great food and will definitely be coming back here when I visit again!“

“湯好正冇味精真材實料好方便👍😋 點心及其他菜式都好好味 送上門的服務非常好又客氣👏😋😍. Leftover Freeze pack of healthy soup, adding some water and boiling, so good 👍😋🙏“

“This restaurant is small and cozy, with about ten tables, and the prices are very reasonable. Unfortunately, the food didn’t meet my expectations. Every dish I ordered tasted extremely light. While I appreciate that they seem to avoid MSG, the flavors were so mild that I found myself hesitating with every bite.

I ordered the fish congee, and the fish arrived as one large piece rather than slices. The congee itself had almost no fish taste at all. What surprised me most is how busy the restaurant was. Perhaps affordability is the main reason people come, but personally, I prefer stronger flavors and better quality.“

“I absolutely love coming to Royal Garden Seafood Restaurant for authentic Cantonese cuisine. Their soy sauce chicken is always a standout dish, it is perfectly tender, flavorful, and incredibly delicious every time.

The restaurant offers a great, comfortable dining atmosphere and the staff is very welcoming. It's a fantastic spot for traditional Cantonese food in Richmond. Highly recommended!“
