“Really excellent shop. They very clearly take pride in the food they serve and it shows. The house made noodles are fantastic, and the owner showed us how the filled dumplings were best enjoyed. Great food and an owner that really cares about the quality of her food. We will 100% be coming back when we are in Burnaby next.“

“Rich, creamy broth with a gentle heat that perfectly complemented the tender fish and earthy mushrooms. The fresh vegetables and green peppercorn added a vibrant kick, and the red rice made it hearty and satisfying. A comforting, flavorful dish. I came with my big family and got great atmosphere too. If you are going to bring kids, it is good to order tomatoes sauce fish with yummy crispy pork.“

“Alvin Garden is a great spot for Hunan cuisine in Vancouver. The food is flavorful and satisfying, with the authentic taste you hope for in Hunan dishes. The prices are reasonable, too. I’d happily come back and try more of the menu!“

“The food was absolutely delicious, and everything tasted incredibly fresh and freshly prepared. The dry pot dish was especially crispy and flavorful, with a great texture and plenty of seasoning without being overwhelming. The sweet-and-sour pork (锅包肉) was excellent as well—the coating was just the right thickness, crispy on the outside without being too heavy, and the flavor tasted very authentic and traditional. The Big Plate Chicken (大盘鸡) was another highlight, with a generous amount of tender, meaty chicken and a rich, flavorful chicken taste. I also really enjoyed watching the hand-pulled noodles being freshly made on site, which added a nice authentic touch to the dining experience. On top of the great food, the service was warm, friendly, and attentive. Overall, it was a very satisfying meal with authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and a great atmosphere.“

“A new Chinese restaurant in Burnaby and located in Brentwood mall. Because it’s a new restaurant, the dining area is bright (lots of windows) and clean and the tables aren’t overly crowded.
We went for dim sum. The food is very good. Not overly seasoned, nice fresh flavours. Presentation is very nice. The duck shaped mango pudding is unique. The portions are a bit on the average size compared to other dim sum restaurants. You order ala carte and they bring out the dishes to you, on this day the kitchen seemed a bit slow even though it wasn’t that busy in the restaurant (Friday morning at 11). Prices are on the high side but is expected for a higher end Chinese restaurant like this.“

“I visit weekly or biweekly, by now probably have tried most of their menu items. If you love Chinese with a northern flavour, highly recommend this place! The service here is also top notch.
We eat dinner early so we always get seats. There are free parking at the back but we tend to find a nearby street parking.“

“Is life even worth living? I drove three hours from Seattle only to be met by closed doors. Disappointedly, I had to settle for the Hainanese chicken spot 2 feet away.
This was the first time I’ve cheated on my favorite noodle shop and I will regret it every day for the rest of my life.
Peace and love,

“We’ve been coming here for at least 16 years. I wish I took more photos of this last visit, but we just scarfed all of our delicious food down. Make sure to get the shrimp balls 🦐⚽🏀🥎 Everything is always fresh and the service has always been great from everyone, but especially Victor. He’s the very best! There’s $20 AYCE now, so no excuse not to try Happy Lamb at least once…you’ll definitely be back! The impressive drink vending machine alone is worth a visit 😃“

“Lovely couple run the restaurant, the decor is plain but who cares when the food is so delicious. I felt the price was reasonable for the fantastic quality and others that joined our dinner said it was the best they’ve had. I will definitely be back and this place will be my “go to” for delicious Asian food.“

“This restaurant is located near Crystal Mall, making it a convenient option if you're in the area. We ordered the combo set for two people, and the portion was actually generous enough for three people.
The food was tasty, and the restaurant has a nice local vibe that makes the experience feel authentic and casual.
Overall, a solid place for a meal. Worth a try if you're nearby.“

“Friendly family run breakfast noodle shop located in the food court attached to T&T in Surrey.
The prices here are very decent and the front counter team is very friendly. They usually have a decent sized line of people - so be prepared to wait a little bit.
It’s good to satisfy a morning noodle craving.“

“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.“

“We had such a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious, and the ice cream was amazing too! Everything was great, but what really made our visit special was the outstanding service from Ethan.
He was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and amazing with my two very energetic little kids! 😂 They couldn’t sit still for long, but Ethan noticed right away and kindly brought them some toys to keep them entertained. It made such a big difference and allowed us to enjoy our meal much more comfortably.
It’s the little things like this that make a restaurant stand out. Ethan went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience, and we truly appreciated his kindness and attentiveness.
Thank you, Ethan, for making our family visit so enjoyable! We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend this place for the delicious food, amazing ice cream, and excellent service!!!“

“This is one of the more waiting time restaurants in the mall and some parts are interesting to say the least. But the food is still good. The wait time was 30 minutes but he tasted the soup twice and grabbed the food with his bare hands twice. Would recommend for the meat pie but not for the sanitarian reason.“

“The bubble tea is what my family and I love about the place they’re consistent, creamy, pearls are the right tenderness and the flavour are true to the taste, staff are always friendly and helpful. The food, we actually haven’t tried it but it always looks delish and the place always have ppl whenever we go in to order, so we really should try the food one of these days. Two thumbs up!“

“Among Korean-Chinese restaurants in Burnaby, which often leave a little to be desired, this place is the most satisfying.
I can proudly call myself a loyal regular! I’m always so busy eating that I forget to take photos. The service is friendly, and the food quality is consistently good. It's slightly on the saltier side, but overall a solid dining experience. I’d recommend No. 19 and the small Tangsu-yuk for two people. However, the current Tangsu-yuk has too much batter, so I’d love to see a premium option packed with thick, meaty cuts even at a higher price point!“

“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.“

“Visited Kirin in Queensborough in Oct 2026. It's been many years since we last came here but the food is still pretty good. Actually, the dim sum prices are pretty good compared with some other restaurants these days. The interior of the main dining area is a bit understated (although the entrance foyer area is a bit more elegant).
For a weekday, it seemed kinda busy (filled mainly with other Asian diners) but not completely full. Service was a bit hit and miss depending on how busy they were but the food came out rather quickly.
The Deep Fried Prawn, Pork, and Chinese Mushroom Wrapped in Taro Root Paste ($9.95) was the first dish to appear. I found the exterior had the requisite fluffy and airy texture but the taro shell was a bit harder/firmer than I'm accustomed to. Inside, the filling was pretty good. Next up was the Steamed Prawn and Sakura Pork Dumpling topped with Flying Fish Roe ($9.95). These siu mai were quite large and went well with the xo sauce they provided.
The Steamed Bbq Pork Buns ($9.25) had a soft bun that encased the not-too-sweet bbq pork filling. From the non-dim sum menu, we got the Beef Cubes and Eggplant Sautéed in Black Pepper and Basil ($20.75). While the beef wasn't supremely tender like we've had in some other places, the flavours were good.
Last to arrive was the Deep Fried Minced Fish Bean Curd Rice Roll ($10.75). The bean curd skin was lightly crispy. Wish these were cut slightly smaller to make them easier to eat.
Plenty of parking available and they have a little garden right outside.“

“May is a wonderfully bubbly personality. Don't be surprised if she remembers you; even if months have passed. She calls her regulars her boyfriends or girlfriends. And yes, the food is consistently delicious. Rice rolls and congee are simple ingredients that take a deft touch to produce greatness. Surprisingly, rice isn't light. I'm surprised to find myself stuffed and more than satisfied as I roll myself away.“

“We've visited this place multiple times as a family and it never disappoints! The food is consistently delicious and the overall dining experience keeps us coming back. Most of the staff are warm and attentive. A couple of servers were a bit reserved, but it didn't take away from our experience at all. The only minor inconvenience is parking - it can get quite tight depending on the time you visit, so plan accordingly.“

“Everything is tasty and especially red bean cake dessert. It’s full of red bean.
We prefer a bit more taste in hot and sour soup so add a bit more chilli paste.
Sweet spareribs are the best of all!“

“This is the best place for Filipino siopao and pancit guisado. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the warm smiles of the friendly staff who truly make you feel at home.
The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly their famous BBQ pork buns—soft, fluffy, and bursting with flavor. I also indulged in their delectable steamed dumplings, which were perfectly cooked and incredibly fresh. The crispy spring rolls were a fantastic appetizer, with just the right amount of crunch.
Don’t miss out on their incredible pastries, either! The egg tarts are a must-try; they’re creamy, sweet, and the crust is just divine.
While parking can be a bit tricky during rush hours, it’s absolutely worth it for the delicious food and welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend New Town Bakery and Restaurant to everyone looking for a delightful dining experience!“
“If you are near the Vancouver area and you like Asian cuisine. It’s a must to get Kuai Wei Jia. Not only is the food authentic (as an Asian person my self) the service is fast and the food is good and rather cheap for Chinese food. Would come again and recommend for others.“

“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!“
“Hidden Gem 💎!!! Michelin star worthy deliciousness. Tried the Mulukia with lamb and injera bread which was gobsmackingly delicious. So flavourful and interactive being able to use the injera bread as your utensil to pick up the lamb stew with jute leaves. Comes with a healthy salad and refreshingly spicy peanut sauce too. Mom and pop shop with excellent down to earth service. Can’t wait to return. Food is made fresh to order so it’s not fast food… but it’s worth the wait. The place has character, if you go in person, you’ll see what I mean.“

“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.“

“Amazing flavor, but watch your fingers!
I stopped by for a bowl of their signature clay pot noodles, and it was a bit of an adventure. First off, be prepared for the heat—the soup stays boiling hot in the clay pot for the entire meal. In the US, someone would probably be suing them over the temperature lol, but it definitely keeps the flavors intense!
The soup base was absolutely incredible—rich, savory, and deep. The beef brisket and tendon were the highlights; they were amazingly tender and melted in my mouth.
One thing to note, these are potato noodles (Tu Dou Fen). They are very thick and extremely chewy. Personally, I think I’d prefer a standard ramen-style noodle.
They have a unique deposit system here. You pay an extra $5 deposit for the clay bowl when you order. Once you’re finished, you return the bowl to the counter and they give you your $5 back in cash.“

“Authentic Chinese cuisine ran by very kind owners. Whether it is to dine in or takeout, you can never go wrong with this restaurant. The fried rice, honey garlic ribs, and sweet and sour pork are some of their dishes I enjoy most. The vibe inside the restaurant feels very Chinese as well. Though the restaurant is cramped and may be overwhelming sometimes, the food is cooked to near perfection and the restaurant is simply a happy place to be in.“

“I went to Canada in 1997 and attended high school near by On Yuen. This was my first Hong Kong cusine experience in Canada. Fried rice is my favorite!!! I always order fried rice with their spicy chili paste. The chili past is sour and spicy, it taste so well on the fried rice~ But I look for places for the same chili paste, but never found one...
Now I am back to Taiwan, and I haven't had On Yuen for more than 10 years. I still crave for the delicious On Yuan dishes.“

“REMEMBER‼‼‼ 🫵🏻 You don’t come here for the service or the atmosphere,
🫵🏻You come here for great tasting old school Chinese food‼‼‼. I’m Chinese and I can confidently say you get good tasting Chinese food here especially for the price you pay. This place by far is not a high end bougie Chinese restaurant that charges an arm 💪🏼 and a leg 🦵. What this restaurant provides is from my experience is that you can feed your friends and family with good food without breaking your wallet.“
