“We ordered beef noodle soup and chicken fried rice. The price was reasonable and the portion was huge so you’ll really get more bang for your buck. Their tea was so nice and the service was awesome. I love my beef noodle soup. The both is tasty and the beef is very tender. I will definitely come here again.“

“I like that all the food is freshly made! And you can adjust the spicy level as well. Friendly to people who can’t eat spicy! The dandan noodles are surprisingly good. The noodles texture is chewy (doesn’t look like it). Dumplings are pretty yummy too. They gave us a small bowl of ice jelly for free. Good service!“

“OH MY✳️❤️????✅️. LOVE THIS recent restaurant discovery!! We have never had "Hunan cuisine" before-all of most others-but THIS was VERY SPECIAL- AND very TASTY ‼️✅️??. We have now had several excellent dishes. We had wonton soup-incredible darker broth- amazing - and the flavour of their wonton dumplings is excellent. We wanted MORE and have NEVER in all our years had those dumplings tasting like their's do ??!! We had their ginger, chicken, and green onion soup-??Amazing broth again, refreshing-truly- and, it left us all wanting it AGAIN‼️I CANNOT say enough about this place✅️✅️✅️- their chef ✅️✅️✅️and this Hunan style of food and spicing, etc.❗️We have also had their wonderful smoked pork house rice, the sour shredded potatoes and peppers, spicy cabbage, green onion pancakes, beef broccoli, etc. ( "Mild" is still fairly HOT here?-so unless you can take heat- ask for "?BABY heat???") PLEASE try for yourself! WE ARE going back for more to sample. You WON'T likely be disappointed! It is not a large restaurant, and they have delivery. It IS very clean, large menu choices, and the servers are so nice! Prices are very fair and comparable. They have dim sum items as well!???“

“I visited this unique restaurant few days ago. Love the hospitality and friendliness of the staff. Because i visited on Thursday afternoon, they weren't too busy. I ordered the bbq mutton stock and lamb hotpot. Both of them are super delicious. They even customised the spiciness to my like. I had a very pleasant conversation with the owner. And I revisited again 3 days later to try out other variety. If you like spicy food, I would definitely recommend this.
Parking: There are more parking lots at the back.“

“I've always passed by this restaurant and was curious to try. I'm quite satisfied. The price was pretty cheap and the customer service was pretty good for a Chinese restaurant.
The vibe from inside is a little cramped, different than what it seems from outside (a Shaolin restaurant ?) but it was still quite comfortable.
The only thing is that the kitchen took a long time with our order. We waited nearly 15 minutes for noodles with sauce on it. Meanwhile our friends were already finished eating. That part was not cool. But we'll give them the benefit of the doubt.
Next time I'll come when I'm not pressed for time (and definitely not with 15 ppl)“

“We arrived right when a large dinner party was leaving, so we had to wait quite a while to get seated, for someone to take our order, and for water to arrive. Otherwise, the food was amazingly cheap for how much you received! We also received extra ice cream at the end for the trouble.“

“This is actually my second time at Gaon. This place offer quality food with a budget-friendly price ? I was having my birthday party here of 6 and we ordered a Combo B BBQ set for 4 and 1 main dish and believe me when i say all 6 of us couldn’t actually finish the food so we have to take my cake back home without eating any of it lol. Will recommend to more friends.“

“This is our go-to restaurant whenever we don’t know where to go, we know the food here will always satisfy our cravings! I highly recommend the clay pot rice, it’s a must have! The rice is crispy on the outside and so flavourful with their customized sauce and meats! Just make sure to order it right away since it takes about 30 minutes to make.“

“This is a family-owned Shanghainese restaurant that offers a variety of authentic dishes, including classics like Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings) and Sheng Jian Bao (pan-fried buns). The food arrived quickly and was served piping hot, showcasing the kitchen’s efficiency.
The Xiao Long Bao were exceptionally juicy, with flavorful broth and perfectly seasoned, firm filling, although it does have thicker skin than Wangs in Vancouver. The Sheng Jian Bao, a delicious pan-fried bun, had a crisp bottom and was packed with savory soup, offering a wonderful balance of textures. Another bonus was, it wasn’t too oily.
I’ve tried the dan dan noodles and the peanuts were crunchy and provided an enjoyable contrast to the softer dishes. The noodles were slightly overcooked.
Bean paste noodles - huge portion and really flavorful.
Overall, the meal was satisfying, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and location.
This restaurant is truly a gem for anyone craving authentic Shanghai-style cuisine in the area. I’ll definitely be returning to explore more of the menu!“

“This is a higher priced Chinese restaurant, but the quality and proportions make them worthy.
Every meal that we have had here has been fantastic. The flavors are always on point, and there is plenty to go around.
Our favorite dishes are the Peking Duck 2-way with Lettuce Wrap, the Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice, the Roasted Chicken half, and my little ones love the Crab Claws with Shrimp Paste.
Since we do not live here, the price is worth it for the few opportunities we get to enjoy the amazing Chinese food in Vancouver.“

“Very Kind servers(all of them) and good foods. Prices are on the cheaper side, too. Chicken skewers and mapo tofu(Our order is no oyster sauce, just spicy with peppers), fried squid, spicy fish dish are our favorites. Most dishes on the menu are good. Draft beer was fresh. They offer you one small snack for free upon arrival :) I can smile every time I come here.“

“By far the best sweet and sour pork and squid in Vancouver. The restaurant is very simple and contrasts with the excellent food, which in all the dishes I have been able to try, are simply delicious!! Friendly attention and very reasonable prices!“

“We decided to drop by & order take out food . It only took 20 minutes wait , then went back to my car but my car won’t start on the first day of snow& was very cold. I called BCAA but it will take an hour & a half to arrive. Went back inside the restaurant & told the lady, she said ohh your food will be cold, offered us a table to eat( no dine in ) & gave us hot tea & bottled water. We are very thankful for their hospitality & kindness. It showed the true meaning of CARING.“

“The food is amazing, quality of ingredients as well as just the combination of flavors is awesome and to get anything similar you would have to travel hours.
Anyone complaining about how long it takes should order in advance rather than post invalid reviews, food like this HAS TO TAKE TIME which is why it tastes how good it is, if you can’t wait this long for something out of this world go get fast food.
City is blessed to have such a talented chef willing to share his food.“

“Gluten free Chinese food! Yes, you read that correctly! Actually gluten free Chinese food. Including the battered meats! This is the first time I’ve ever encountered a gluten free Chinese food restaurant!
I got their most popular dish: the sesame chicken. It’s the first fried Chinese food I’ve had since getting celiac disease. The crispy fried chicken was delightful! It was served very hot and they prepared it so quickly too. It had great cuts of chicken too.
The associate who I talked with on the phone was very kind and courteous and worked hard with her staff to get my food ready quickly as I was in a rush.
This restaurant only adds 3 minutes to your route when you go from Vancouver back to the US!
5 stars!“

“I craved Baozi (Chinese bun) and saw it’s on their menu so went for it. It was excellent.
A very kind lady served me. I was hungry so was anxious during the wait, but the food was worth it.
Tried the two kind of buns they had. It wasn’t salty as I had expected foods outside to be. Not salty/oily at all and in fact was very tasty, medium-size bun with generous meat filling, loved it. 太香了,好好吃?!Thanks for making my day ^ ^“

“I visited here for the first time last year on a business trip and tried the dry spicy wontons and I have not stopped thinking about them since. These are the most perfect bite ever. Soft, savory, tingly, spicy, warm, affordable, and so filling. I am back in Vancouver for business again and my first stop for dinner was this totally unassuming food stall in the crystal mall. Love love love and wish I had anything even remotely similar back home.“

“It's really one of the best restaurants I've eaten at since I came to Canada. The lady at the front desk is also very warm and kind, and the service is really good. The chef's level is also high, and he has a lot of dishes, including daily dishes (although I usually order from the menu). I have tried several dishes so far and they are all delicious. I'm from the north, and my wife is from the south, and they both love it.“

“Over all…the hotpot was good…lots of choices…
Dim sum…was very limited 2 or 3 choices…and slow to get refilled…
I was disappointed that my 10 and 14 year old child had to pay the full adult price of 52$ each, as this location based it off height…and not age…
If your planning to go with your kids…personally I don’t think it’s worth it…
As well…please be advised…if your planning to pay by credit card…they will charge you a 2% fee…unless you do their survey…in which case they will wave the 2% fee“

“This place is my go to for bubble tea. My daughter and I find ourselves picking up our favourites, multiple times a week. Mine is a coconut slushy. It’s like a thick, creamy, slice of Heaven. It’s also good with full sugar, but I’ve started to do half sugar to keep the calories down. I never expected myself to drink this multiple times a week lol. That’s also why I don’t get pearls, but they’re also good. My daughter’s favourite is black sugar pearl milk tea, hot. My favourite part is they always get the order right. So being so consistent, I’m able to order and I know I’m gonna enjoy my drink. Thank you bubble world.
They just started doing construction around there, so it’s a bit hard to pick up our orders, but that will not deter us to get our bubble teas lol. See you soon. March 14, 2025“

“Our family of 10 just landed back in Vancouver ag 5pm after 4 days in California. We were hungry and didn't know what to eat. Good thing Happy Lamb Hot Pot could accommodate us! Food and service here has always been good since we have been eating here for the past 10+ years.
$30-$40 per person all you can eat is worth it. Compared to California where each meal we paid $20-$30 USD per person per meal! It's good to be back where Vancouver has the best variety of food at descent price.
Here they have deep fried chicken wings and lamb/pork bones ready to eat if you are hungry and can't wait for you hot pot food to come out.
Parking: The CIBC parking is from 8am-5pm underground, but you can park there after 5pm.“
“I ordered the 乾炒牛河 (Stir-fried Beef Noodle) and the taste was authentic. Generous portion with lots of meat and rice noodle but the beef quality was not the best. You get what you pay for, but I wish the beef quality was better so I could really enjoyed this dish because they had a good chef. I have ordered Salt & Pepper Crispy Chicken before, so will probably order again. Very good and friendly service!“

“I went to the Vancouver branch some years ago. I remember it being really good, so I visited the Coquitlam branch. It did not disappoint.
We ordered the beef rolls, pan fried pork, sweet and sour chicken, young chow fried rice, vegetarian noodles, hot and sour dumplings, a s Xiao long bao. Everything's really good.
The only thing I didn't like about is how cold it is inside the restaurant. They had portable heaters on but it wasn't enough to make the whole restaurant warm. Probably their heater wasn't working that day.
But other than that, we enjoyed eating in Peaceful restaurant in Coquitlam.
Vegetarian options: Yes they have vegetarian options as my daughter is vegetarian, we didn't have a hard time choosing food for her.“

“I don't know if Koreans' tastes will have different tastes, but it feels like real Chinese food. It's good to try once, but it's just not to my taste. But even though the closing time had passed, people still waited to eat. (Orders must be placed 15 minutes before closing) Anyway, rather than saying it’s delicious, I’m grateful that it allowed me to eat at such a late hour!“

“A hidden gem for Taiwanese food that deserves more hype! Went for the boiled fish with pickles combo for two and got a feast—boiled fish soup, beef bulgogi, crispy fried tofu, plus tea and veggies (not pictured because we were too busy eating). Cozy vibes, friendly service, and flavors that hit the spot. Definitely coming back for round two!“

“I met with a few friends for lunch at this Peaceful location & was pleasantly pleased with the food we ordered. The star attraction were the Beef Rolls. The stuffed slices of tasty beef had the taste of being freshly roasted & the wrap was equally crispy. YUMMY! Street parking is available. If no spots available, try the surrounding residential parking or the parade across the street. Service at the restaurant was attentive. Limited seating/tables but we managed to arrive before the lunch crowd came - 11:30 am on a Friday. Definitely, we will come back to this location.“

“This pizza, it is absolutely phenomenal and the price is incredible. The driver even brought me a plastic cup double cupped, because I had ordered a two liter seven 7up. It was the perfect addition to my large pizza. Then add the delivery.And it only came up to twenty seven dollars. I'm being on a budget after moving.
It was the perfect addition to a very tiring night and day ..... I give this place a thousand percent rating of perfection.$$$$$$“

“I've been coming here since I was a kid. Always good value and food tastes great. Braised beef brisket hot pot is very tender. If you don't get the black bean sauce for the chow mein, the flavor will be milder. The chow mein noodles are nice and crispy and absorbs the sauce well. I'll continue to come here.
Parking: Can be hard to find parking during the afternoon and early evening“

“This little hole in the wall restaurant (6 tables) is one of my favorites. Have been coming here for over 30 years. The owners have changed but the food is always good. Ginger beef and spicy green beans with added garlic are two of my favorites along with a, bowl of steamed rice. A lot of delivery calls so it is usually not hard to find a table. I apologize for the pictures as they were taken halfway through dinner.“

“Authentic and homemade tasting dishes. My only gripes are their waiting times (often quite long) and their unpredictable starting hours. I’ve often gone to Henderson Mall with the sole purpose of eating at Tong’s, only for them to be unexpectedly closed or delayed in opening by multiple hours.Considering that this is just a mom-and-pop food court stall, they still deserve 5 stars from the delicious food alone.“

“We rushed in for a late lunch almost 3pm The owner recommended us to try their Four meat balls noodle which was absolutely delicious. The thin noodle just tasted like Hong Kong’s. The curry beef brisket also just the right taste. Next time we will definitely go back try their sweet and sour pork.“
“Wonderful little place I just stopped by for a bite to eat and a coffee. Lovely owners and atmosphere, DELICIOUS FOOD!!!The decor and interior could use a bit of sprucing up, but honestly that doesn't matter too much to me personally.It's a shame that there are bad reviews from the previous owners that seem to be affecting this place's overall rating, so if you're just checking this out now, I would highly recommend to stop by and give this place a try!“

“Been eating here for years. Love the cozy cafe atmosphere. Don’t expect a fancy restaurant, just a simple small neighborhood cafe that serves up good food. The owner always remembers our name and what we love to eat. Makes you feel at home. Excellent prices. Good food. Family owned and operated. Highly recommended for take-out too.“

“I can guarantee whoever gives this restaurant less than 5 stars either because they are not used to the typical “rude” but caring service by the aunties OR they just dont know what to order thats actually good.
First time here and I was impressed with the food taste. Ordered 4 item combo: shanghai style crispy chicken, fish & tofu hot/clay pot, greenbeans with beef and house special chowmein. Combo includes free rice, (lobak, carrots & beef) soup and dessert (mango pudding or red bean soup). It was too much for 4 of us and we had to pack some home.
Will definitely come back.“
