Cantonese Restaurants in Richmond, BC

“Good food with reasonable price, especially their daily soup👍🏻“

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

> We came here for dim sum with my family and had a great experience. The food was quite good, with fresh flavors and generous portions. The service was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our meal. Overall, it was an enjoyable dining experience, and we'd definitely come back for dim sum again.“

“We spent four days in Vancouver and ended up visiting 銀記腸粉 three times. That alone says a lot about how much we enjoyed this place.

As the name suggests, they specialize in rice noodle rolls (腸粉), and they do them exceptionally well. Their 炸兩 (rice noodle roll wrapped around a fried dough stick) was the best I've had in Canada, and possibly the best I can remember anywhere. The fried dough was crisp on the inside, while the rice noodle wrapper was silky, fresh, and cooked to perfection. If you enjoy 炸兩, this is an absolute must-order.

We also tried the boat congee (艇仔粥), which was among the better versions I've had in Canada. Rich, flavorful, and generously filled, it was a pleasant surprise.

Another highlight was the noodle dishes. I ordered the wonton noodle soup on one visit and the beef brisket noodle soup on another. The noodles had the firm, springy texture that many Cantonese noodle shops strive for but often miss. In fact, the texture was better than what I've experienced at both 黎良記 and 沾仔記.

The wontons themselves were somewhat underwhelming, but the beef brisket was excellent—tender, flavorful, and well worth ordering.

The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. We have family members with peanut allergies, and when we informed them, they carefully reviewed the ingredients used in their dishes and clearly explained what was safe to order. Their attention to detail and understanding of food allergies gave us a lot of confidence.

This is the kind of place you visit for great food and quick, attentive service. If you're looking for somewhere to grab a delicious meal before continuing on with your day, it's an easy recommendation. If you're planning a long date night and want to linger over conversation for hours, you may be better off elsewhere. Personally, I hope it stays exactly as it is—I appreciate being able to walk in, enjoy excellent food, and be served promptly.“

“Fresh, delicious, excellent service;“

“Great food and very good service, better than lots of Chinese restaurant out there“

“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).“

“This chicken dish is one of my fav things to eat, I always order it when I see it on a menu. At fei Mei I ordered the spicy sichuan flavour. The spice is very mild if you do not handle spice well.

This chicken wasn’t my favourite, I’d give just the chicken 4/5 which is still good and top 5.

My husband and I found the rice a surprisingly 5/5. It was so addictive, flavourful, full of variety like juicy braised daikon, shrimp, sausage, fresh green onions…. I could not tell if it was a fried rice or what. I never had anything like it and it is an absolute must try rice dish.

Overall I would be back to try the other chicken flavours but mostly for the tasty rice.“

“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!“

“Great food small clean restaurant“

“The best foods and fish soup noodles in town. 😋😋😋 Highly recommended 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼“

“If you’re looking for a spot that specializes in rice rolls, this is the place to try. They offer a variety of combinations, but the most popular one is the beef, pork, and shrimp roll. The sauce they add is really good and well balanced, and the rice roll itself is tender and tasty. Definitely a spot worth checking out“

“Wow what a yummy place with amazing service!

Soup was hot! Tendon and brisket were perfect! Wontons and dumplings were tasty! I would have ordered a 3rd bowl if I wasn’t so full! I went to get refills on the hot sauce too as that was so yummy!

It was the perfect hot noodle soup on a rainy day! I’ll be back for sure :)! There’s a holiday Dec promotion right now so go check them out!“

“Nostalgic dining room design. When you enter, you will feel you being in an upscale noodle shop ok Hong Kong in the 80's😀 if you know what this feels like.

You need to enter your car plate number on a tablet when you go in or the parking enforcement company won't recognize your car.

We ordered brisket and tendon and wonton soup noodle. Brisket and tendon as a dish is worth the price. Choi sum for $9 is a bit overpriced.

Soup noodle looks small in the tiny bowl, but the portion is more than we thought. We were all very full. It is the perfect balance or protein and carbs in the smallest bowl possible. You won't see the wontons as the chef place then beneath the noodle to ensure they stay warm longer. How they measure the portion would be a business secret.

The seasoning in the soup base and the brisket is top of the indistry. It is no accident that Max's survive the test of time (30+ years).“

“Coming to Vancouver as a tourist,this restaurant was highly recommended to me. It absolutely lived up to the hype! The combination platter I ordered, with roast duck and char siu, was phenomenal. The meat was incredibly juicy and the skin was perfectly crispy. The homemade plum and char siu sauces were the perfect accompaniment. This is the kind of authentic, high-quality meal you travel for. I will be recommending this place to all my friends who visit.“

“I always find the food and service at Neptune to be good. It’s a great spot for either dim sum or dinner. Prices are reasonable and the food is good.

They can always accommodate large groups on short notice. This can be a challenge when you have the whole family together.

Can be busy sometimes but the service is quick so it doesn’t matter much“

“Great price for dim sum and Cantonese style dinner. Food quality is steady in most case and size is decent for 4 people. Service is decent and the restaurant still kept pretty well for being in the same location for more than 15 years.
Convenient if you SkyTrain but mall parking is busy during peak.“

“Late Post: an extravagant dinner but without the luxury features, vibe, decor or background music.
The outside of the restaurant seems a bit sketchy at first and the inside has an odd layout. They were previously located on Park Road years ago, now a block away in a senior only residential building and still using the same fixtures, tables and chairs but it is clean.

Quiet run down, but the dishes was delicious if you're after old school authentic flavours and back to basic to enjoy classic food this a place to be.
New location is a hidden gem that you can't see from the outside, but it's busy for down to earth Cantonese dinner, as menu less fancy and extensive compared to newer establishments. Many items you do need to pre-order though, sue to concept of simplicity.

I must say their steamed fish was really good, because havent enjoyed one just so perfectly cooked in a while. Their portion sizes and temperature of dishes is something to rave about too. Everything was cooked, seasoned and presented nicely. Just don't know why they didn't offer any fried rice when ordered the king crab.

You can bring your own wine at dinner for a corkage fee, but parking is limited in the garage.

However, IMO their dim sum lunch not as good.

Update: Golden Paramount Seafood Restaurant has received several awards, including being a winner of the Hennessy The Elite 10 Awards (Metro Vancouver) and having its chef, May Chau Siu-May, named Master Chef of the Year at the 2024 Chinese Restaurant Awards. The restaurant was recently also included in the 2025 Elite 30 list of the Chinese Restaurant Awards.

They are well known for their Pork Lung with Almond Soup that has great clean flavours with a lovely balance between sweet meatiness and slightly bitter nuttiness a result of careful slow cooking. This soup sells out regularly each night.“

“Food was amazing and came in decent portions. The highlight dish was the salted fish and chicken fried rice. Would go back just for that dish. Every dish included a generous amount of meat.
Portions: Great
Wok Hei: Great
Would recommend.
Debit/cash only.“

“Bring back Hong Kong tea house food memory to me. I tried 干炒牛河，焗豬扒飯和西多士。乾炒牛河好味，西多士好正，焗豬扒飯好多豬扒 and come with drinks of your choice。 Good value for your money.“

“The food is consistently good and I like the giant crab hanging on the wall at the entrance. We call him King Crab.

The best thing about this location is the excellent service by the staff team. Our server Stephen was incredibly kind, helpful, and friendly.“

“Not bad but a bit pricey!“

“One of the better Cantonese meals I’ve had recently. Every dish was cooked well, but the lobster sticky rice was exceptional — fresh lobster, generous portions, and incredibly flavorful rice. The wok hei on the stir-fries was noticeable, the vegetables were fresh, and even the simple dishes were executed well. Perfect spot for a group dinner where everyone can share. Highly recommend ordering the lobster rice if it’s available.“

“Had a great meal at Tsim Chai Noodle Restaurant Ltd.. The Chow Fun had excellent wok hei (wok flavor) that gave it an authentic taste, and the beef brisket wonton noodle soup was outstanding. The brisket was tender, the wontons were flavorful, and the broth was delicious. Definitely a spot I'll be returning to!“

“Went there for king crab and shark fin soup. King crab was prepared in 4 different ways. All deliciously prepared. Some in our party prefer the rice in the last dish be cooked without Curry but it's personal preference. The shark fin soup was only average and pricey, and could be skipped“

“We went on a Thursday for lunch, wasn’t too crowded, the seatings were very spacious, and the staff were nice👍🏻 We got the Pork Stomach with Pepper Soup and the Chicken Wings with Salted Egg Yolk. It was my first time having these two dishes and they were both out of the world😮 The staff came at the right timings to add soup for us, but weren’t like some over-friendly people I’ve encountered before that come every 2 minutes asking you how everything was🤣 Too bad I don’t live in Vancouver, otherwise this would be a place that I want to go to often😩“

“Very fresh seafood and dumplings !“

“Good food and service, friendly staff.“

“My FIRST go to place for my hometown Hong Kong-style comfort food 🥰🥰🥰“

“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!“

“This is by far the best Cantonese restaurant I’ve tried in Richmond! Every dish I’ve had here has been delicious and truly authentic — classic Cantonese flavors done perfectly. I’ve been here a few times already (two or three times), and every visit has been excellent. Highly recommend!“

“Went for Saturday dim sum with 4 adults and two kids. Spent less than $90 all in with 7 dim sum and BBQ duck noodle.

If you check out before 11am, you get free tea and 20% off! After 11am is 10% off. The food tasted great…taro bun (buns in the shape of pigs), fried taro and pork fritter, fish crepe, were some stand out items.

FYI: Discounted items have a lot of rules—most of which is only written in Chinese—the 20% off is cash only for standard small, medium, large dim sum. Also I was looking forward to clay pot rice but they only serve chicken/rib rice pot on the weekdays (also only written in Chinese—they said it gets too busy?). I would like it if the whole menu and rules were in both English and Chinese for us 2nd generation Canadians.

Finally, like many dim sum restaurants, the restaurant acoustics are very noisy and loud making it difficult to communicate with hard of hearing family member. I’m still on the look out for a quiet dim sum place!

Great parking in the Garden City strip Mall. Good value before 11am. Wish I knew all the rules clearly though.

Note: The dim sum menu on their website has been changed and updated. Photos included for reference.“

“It was busy for a Monday around 1:30 PM and we had to wait for a table for three people. Like must places, you order from a paper menu (not traditional carts). The food was excellent and the portions were generous. In particular, the spicy tofu (jiu yim dou fu) and shrimp stuff eggplant (yin yeung keh jee) were some of the best I’ve had. It was quite noisy because it was busy, but I guess that’s part of the dim sum experience. The food arrived more staggered than I wanted but not annoyingly slow. Overall, I would give this restaurant a solid 4 stars and would definitely return again.“

“We went there for a lunch special event. Because of that, the service was probably better than usual. The food was not bad although it was not superb. The taste and texture of the dim sum was pretty much the same as most other Chinese restaurants, but the red rice roll with Chinese donut inside was good.“

“I had theice noodle there and I was surprised by the taste of the broth and beef, very balanced mild broth and tasty tender beef chunks with a big soft piece of dikon. Good combination. I gave 5 stars to the taste but deducted one star to the fact it doesn't support credit card or app payment. not very convenient. Young people like now a adays doesnt like to bring wallet. Everything is through smart phone.“

“Great food and good service. Gonna go back to try more dishes for sure“

“Not flashy, not trendy but reliably satisfying. Wang Ji leans into that sweet spot between Cantonese comfort and bold northern Chinese flavours.

• Stir-fried Beef with Cumin - Fragrant cumin hits first, followed by tender slices of beef. Slightly smoky, a little spicy, and aromatic. It’s the kind of dish that demands a bowl of rice.
• Stewed Seafood with Tofu - Silky tofu soaks up the seafood broth mixed with salted egg and bits of shrimp and fish cake adding sweetness and depth.
• Chinese Sausage Fried Rice - Rice infused with that prized wok hei, smoky, almost charred aroma. The Chinese sausage brings a sweet-savoury richness that cuts through the oiliness perfectly.“

“Nice 👍🏻 nice 👍🏻“

“Was craving hot pot on a Friday night, but the restaurant I originally wanted had a long lineup—so we ended up coming here instead, and it was a pleasant surprise!

I really loved the steamed chicken pot—super tender with a generous amount of meat. The luffa was a standout as the vegetable in the pot. We also added sliced beef, which was equally tender and soft, and the flavour overall was really good.

For dessert, we had a traditional Cantonese one, freshly made. Really enjoyed it!“

“Solo weekend dinner, last time came to Redbud was before COVID, someone reminded me of this place, and it was really good.

The tomato soup was just ok, nothing stands out.

The black pepper sauce of the 2 meat combination was very flavourful, meat and veggies were good too

The baked pork chop tomato sauce rice was very flavourful too, you can actually taste the tomatoes, ketchup maybe? But I liked it.

Staff was friendly too

Overall I enjoyed it, I recommend this place for anyone who enjoys HK cafe.“

“We were lucky to get a table of two within 5 mins despite we didn’t reserve a table on Christmas Day. We came to Gingeri long ago but for some reason we didn’t get a chance to go for the past few years. The most amazing part was the friendliest service we got from their hostess, who was so friendly in such a busy day. There was another young girl server who also provided very attentive and efficient service during our stay. The food especially spring rolls were awesome. Will definitely visit again. Service was 100/100.“
