“I HAVE BEEN THIS PLACE MANY TIMES, NICE FAMILY RESTAURANT,VERY GOOD SERVICE,DELICIOUS FOOD,“

“The peppery pork belly and chicken soup is rich, rich in ingredients and has a high Cp value. The salty crispy chicken is juicy and fragrant. The waiter Yvonne sincerely recommends it. The service is super great!!!

“I ordered the signature malatang with less spice, and my friend ordered the sesame sauce spicy dry mix. I already had high expectations because some of my friends told me this is the number one malatang place.
It really hit the spot!! So delicious. The soup had rich umami flavor and paired well with all the ingredients. The spice level was just right for me since my stomach is usually too weak to handle spiciness.
I also tried some of my friend’s dish. She chose medium spicy. It was actually too hot for me, but still very tasty. Spiciness is very personal, so I recommend starting with your own comfortable level and then adjusting the spice level on your next visit. (Anyway, you’ll definitely come back!! ;))
The staff were very friendly and welcoming, which made my experience even more pleasant.
Also, the restaurant looked much more hygienic than other malatang places. Please keep up this great quality 🙏
The only thing I’d suggest improving is the meat container. It looked a little empty, and since the meat was rolled up, it was hard to tell how much I was actually getting.“

“The food here is surprisingly good. Stars taken away because the place smells old. The lady waiting on us was very helpful in her recommendations. We had the Dan-Dan noodle(peanut sauce), Xiao Long Bao, wonton in chilli oil and my nephew had some kind of the chicken broth noodle which was so-so. But the rest were all good.“

“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!???“

“This is my favourite Sichuanese/Chinese spot of all time (and I've been to Sichuan!!)
The service is amazing and the food is incredibly authentic. I come here whenever I'm in the area :)
10/10 would recommend if you like spicy food! Their wood ear mushroom dish and Chongqing noodles are an absolute gem.“

“Great place for dinner or lunch. I had the beef noodle soup was great“

“First time here and it won’t be the last! We had our family lunch here and everything was delicious! The flavours were spot on, very nice textures and nicely presented. The service was excellent. Some in my family can’t handle spicy so we ordered most dishes as mild but none of the dishes lacked flavour. Everything was very tasty! We enjoyed the food so much that we forgot to take photos of the food. Very authentic flavours that reminded us of our time in China. My husband and I will definitely return whenever we’re back in town from the east coast.“

“First time hot potting. The waiter was so helpful and the food was delicious!!! We will definitely be back again!“

“Really enjoyed this restaurant! I appreciate the unlimited rice (only for those dining in) and thought the meal was very delicious.
We opted for no spice, but I definitely want to come back again for the spicy version. Would recommend!“

“I came here for lunch and was warmly greeted by the cashier and owner. They were both so helpful in explaining how to build my own Chinese poke bowl. Bowls start at only $12.88 and you choose a protein, base, sauce and 3 sides. I tried shrimp with thick noodles, dragon sauce and 3 veggie sides. The noodles were chewy and the sauce added a nice kick to it. I also tried the chicken curry over brown rice. I enjoyed the curry, next time I'm going to try their curry brisket over noodles.

They also have bubble tea! I tried mango milk tea with pearls and lychee black tea with coconut jelly. Both drinks were refreshing with a fruity taste and I liked that they weren't too sweet.“

“This is the coolest little family owned Surely home, Cook Chinese food cooking I’ve ever had in New West. For two owners are so awesome. The food is outstanding. It’s like they always say don’t read a book by its cover. This place is awesome.“

“I tried their fried chicken noodle. Meat portion is 25% of the whole noodle plate.
But I like the taste and texture.

I tried their chicken fried rice and fried chicken with dry peppers.
Fried rice was average and had 20% chicken and 80% rice, I shared with another person as we are small rice eaters.

They have a seating capacity for 12. And tables were already taken on Sunday during lunch hours.

Good service and reasonable price.“

“my all time favorite restaurant...before covid...I will let you know after tomorrow's lunch 🥰😋😋❤“

“The food is insane! I everything it was soooo delicious taht now we are looking to try their Korean BBQ for next time!
And many side dishes!

We were looking for try a new Korean Restaurant, and we have not regrets! We ordered :
Gamja-tang Soup ( Spicy Pork Back-Bond).
And Kimchi Jjigae soup ( spicy kimchi and pork).“

“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.“

“A reliably tasty dim sum spot with authentic Cantonese flavors, tidy execution, and genuinely attentive service—easy to recommend for a relaxed weekend yum cha .

Siu mai are bouncy and meaty with a sweet shrimp snap; seasoning leans classic and lets the pork-shrimp blend shine without MSG heaviness .“

“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.“

“This place is fantastic, all of the staff are SO friendly, welcoming and helpful. Food was delicious also!“

“I was craving Chinese food this past weekend thought I would give this place a try. As I do eat gluten free I was glad to hear that this place offers gluten free options for some of my favourite dishes. I was very pleased with the taste of the food, presentation, portion and price. I will recommend this place to people if they have not tried it yet!

Our order consisted of Crispy ginger beef, spicy garlic prawns and BBQ pork fried rice.“

“Jia Wei is such a hidden gem in Burnaby! A true mom-and-pop restaurant that makes you feel right at home the moment you walk in. Their dumplings are absolutely delicious, some of the best I’ve had, packed with flavor and so fresh. The service is warm and comforting, you can really feel the care they put into everything.

Highly recommend this spot if you’re craving authentic, homemade food. It’s so good — a place you’ll definitely want to come back to again and again!“

“I actually only ordered from them for the first time a few days ago, The lady said I shouldn't order Ginger beef with Lemon Chicken so I got Mongolian beef instead that time. The food was definately good enough to order again. Good food reasonable prices. But they make mistakes. I ordered Sweet and Sour pork, GINGER beef and Chicken Chow Mein. They sent Sweet and sour pork, SWEET AND SOUR BEEF, and Chicken Chow Mein. Why would anyone order two Sweet and sour. A little upsetting. I don't want to read too much into it, but it sort of feels like she's trying to teach me lesson.“

“This was such a unique dining experience! I was thrilled! You order a bunch of skewers that range in price and main dishes. We ordered: beef tongue, throat, pork belly, skin, squid, cauliflower, potato, toast, spring rolls, cucumbers and even more squid. Everything was delicious, well spiced and cooked to perfection! Everything came out so fast, it was thrilling to see our table fill up so fast! I love how different cultures have different dining experiences, where you can just sit and chat with friend for hours and pick at your skewers that they keep warm for you at the table.
I will come back here in heartbeat! Its open late and seems to be always busy!“

“Maybe the best chinese restaurant in Surrey? We come from China and can confirm the food here is exactly the same in China, not some stereotype chinese food, and the price is good, worth to try if you never tried really chinese food before.“

“Really high quality food at this establishment. Don’t focus on the customer service or you will miss all that heavenly glory! Lol Chao Shou Wang is located in The Crystal Mall food court. A no nonsense eatery. We ordered the House Spicy Noodle special (#7). It never fails to satisfy, and they use very specific spices to the region that gives the dishes a lovely, distinct flavour. I’ve also ordered the dry wontons with peanuts in the past and it’s also very delicious and satisfying. Highly recommended!“

“Authentic Uighur Xinjiang cuisine. The gentleman wearing the “ doppa” hat is quiet but makes the best braised lamb in all of greater Vancouver. We ordered the lamb with nan and samsa, comes with broth and soup. He suggested the rice polo and it’s their best seller. Amazing food and service.“

“I always have had a good experience in the 15 years I’ve been coming here. Heidi and all the staff are wonderful. I love supporting them and seeing everyone. The large portions for dinner are incredible for the price!!! I always have left overs. I love that they offer many vegetarian options too. They offer many Canadian-Chinese dishes and traditional Chinese dishes with some Canadian/American favourites (like hamburgers). I recommend the mushroom fried rice, onion pancakes (it’s like rosti), or the bean spout chow mein... especially with the chili oil they offer at each table. But the big plate of broccoli in garlic sauce is my favorite if you want something light but filling. They also offer it with Chinese broccoli. My friends and family love the daily specials and combo plates... if you don’t want a big plate of 1 big thing, the combos plates let you get 3 of the main dishes: a fried rice, a chow mein, sweet and sour pork or chicken, etc. For Family dinners they even offer a family combo “dinner for 2/4/6/etc” and have different daily specials. They also offer breakfast, dim sum, wonton soup, and other items. I also recommend their french fries. They SO good but they always come fresh hot and crispy. (Just really good simple fries.) They used to be known as the Austin Heights Diner (1989-2013) if you’ve been a longtime resident of coquitlam, I urge you visit them at their new location.“

“The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I definitely recommend this establishment if you want authentic and halal Fijian food. We ordered a large lamb curry, tawa rotis and chicken pulao. The portions were huge and well worth the money as they were packed to the brim. The uncle was so kind and gave us two extra chutneys (imli and tomato) and 12 pakoras to open our fasts with. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough, definitely give it a try.“

“Stopped by for a snack after getting some groceries and they had the best original rice rolls we've ever had! The soy sauce wasn't too salty, the rolls were perfectly tender yet slightly springy, and the sesame seed topping was a nice touch. Really liked the side of peanut sauce & oyster sauce too!“

“I am back from Toronto and visiting with family. We were looking for a good rice noodle restaurant to try. We found this based off of reviews and it was very good. It was Sunday 12 noon and we were able to get a table for 5; no wait. We had BBQ pork rice rolls, pork congee, curry fish balls and deep fried donuts. The food was tasty and fresh. The price was very reasonable. I would return here on my next visit back here.“

“I came here May 13, 2025 at 4:30PM and I must say this place is phenomenal! We had fast service and their food was very tasty. We were constantly topped off for water and tea and got a to-go box without even asking for one! They even gave us extra fortune cookies because they overheard we were talking about giving our leftovers to our mom. This is a restaurant that truly cares about their customers. I will gladly come back here again.“

“After walking past the broken irrigation system and entering inside. You will be greeted and directed to a waiting area which is a bit uncomfortable seating looks nice but very rigid, you will be forced into a proper posture.

The food is very quick and fresh to arrive almost as if the chef is at the table with you.

Wait staff very quick to make sure your table stays clean, had to ask they stop changing my plate so often, kind of funny but a but distracting when you are chatting with your group. I did very much appreciate the humor they had when coming around very welcoming with the humor of an uncle or a sibling, a gentle tease or offering to do somthing ridiculous like well if you dont like the filling in the sesame bun I can remove it for you no charge and give you back the bun with no filling.“

“We enjoyed our meal at Happy Lamb. I asked for the spiciest broth, although there were lots of peppers it didn’t seem very spicy. Don’t know if extra spicy is an option?? Other than that everything tasted very good and the food seemed fresh and plentiful.“

“Made significant improvements since I first started coming here. Honoured the birthday deal stacked with the student deal. Food was fresh and service was prompt. Restaurant is generally clean. An excellent choice for hot pot and a great late night option. Ideally suited for parties of 4-6 but can accommodate for larger parties. They are quite busy so it might be a good idea to reserve a table“

June. 12/25:
We live in ND and we were pretty panicked about finding a replacement since our favourite Cantonese style local restaurant closed.

Located close by in Surrey, Main Choice has been mentioned quite often in our FB community group.
The present owner of 6 years appears to make the deliveries.
Katie our server was super friendly and absolutely accommodating of our preferences (1/2 soya, no soya and no extra MSG), double checking a few times.

As this was our first visit to this no frills (some might say hole-in-the-wall) restaurant we were pleased to see their prices are much better than most chinese restaurants.
We ordered specifically to compare to what we’re used to and happy to say we’ve found our new favourite that’s a short 10 min drive from home.

The Beef Chow Fun is easily close to $30 everywhere else…their price $16.45 was as good as any we’ve had.
Also ordered: Spicy Green Beans $15.50, Special Fried Rice $15.25 and Honey Garlic Spareribs (bone in) $17.75.
No tea charge.
Dishes came quickly one after the other and delicious.

Seems they mostly get take-out and delivery orders.

Located in a strip mall with limited parking.
All forms of payment accepted.“

“今天試過了。好食。 無味精。會再番黎“

“Excellent dishes. We were a table of 10 with no reservation, but when arrived there were only 6 other diners. Very long time to have our order taken (too few staff perhaps🤷🏼‍♂️). But excellent dishes from spicy beef noodle soup and beef tendon to tofu and crispy chicken.“

“Great Chinese food, generous portions & fab bakery.“

“The spicy beef noodle had good portion and was very spicy, but wasn't the kind I would finish the soup for as after a while the taste seemed to turn sweet. It tasted very similar to Bubble World's but with a bit more herbal taste. Beef chow fun was amazing and pretty large portion enough for 2 people.“

“A home style cooking restaurant. The dishes are not elegantly plated it is more like what your family would serve at dinner. The combo is decent value, Miso soup or black tea, rice, fried tofu, stir fried Taiwanese cabbage, and a choice of 2 mains. We choose Kung Pao chicken and satay beef. The decor is basic and a bit run down but the service was quick and the food tasted good. Like many Asian businesses in Metro Vancouver, they prefer cash. You can pay with cash or debit card but if you really want to pay with credit there is a 50¢ charge. They will also charge 50¢ for a takeout container.“

“A classic Chinese restaurant. The menu has plenty to choose from, with food variation and options. Classic, unfussy decor - which is a good thing, in my opinion. The beef rolls are a great idea. Super flavourful and satisfying. Worth a try!“

“least favorite would be deep fried scallion pancake ( very oily) and the steamed bean curd. Other than that everything was perfect! There was a sign that says they charge 1$ for tea but we weren’t known beforehand. the portion was super big!“

“best bbq meat, it's all delicious. a treat ✨️“

“Ordered for the first time since our usual restaurant is no longer an option… I wish I found this restaurant sooner! Food was absolutely delicious! Flavourful n so elevated, not greasy and such clean bold tasting! 100% recommend n will definitely make this my go to from now on!“

“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!“

“This little family restaurants reminds me of the one my grandparents had. Their sweet and sour pork brings back so many memories. It's the kind of cooking that reminds you why these dishes became classics in the first place. My favs include the wonton soup and the squid with spicy salt. Support local!!!“

“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.“

“This was my first time trying potato noodles, and I really enjoyed the chewy texture! I went with medium spiciness, which was perfectly spicy without upsetting my stomach. It was so good I ordered takeout a few days later, and it tasted just as good as dining in with the claypot.“
