Cantonese Restaurants in Richmond, BC

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

“Continental Seafood Restaurant @ Cambie Plaza Richmond BC. Convenient location. Have dim sum carts services. Good food (Shrimp dumpling, Pork & shrimp dumpling, Braised Beef Tripes, Tendon, Liver & Brisket with Turnip, Pan Fried Eggplant & Tofu Stuffed with Fish Paste, Steamed Rice Roll With Chinese Donut) at reasonable price. Huge place with a large ballroom dance floor, perfect for banquets or large dinners. Plenty of free parking.“

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

“Yin Ji Chang Fen in Richmond is a decent spot for a casual Cantonese breakfast or lunch. We got the Lai Wan Style assorted congee, which was alright but nothing particularly amazing.

The rice rolls were the highlight for me. We ordered two varieties with shrimp, and pork & chives, and both were quite good. The texture of the rice rolls was smooth.

Our total came to $33 for 2 people and 3 items, which I think is a pretty reasonable price. Overall, a decent option if you’re craving Cantonese-style rice rolls and congee, but the rice rolls are what I’d come back for.“

“Hidden gem in an area you wouldn't expect to find a restaurant. Only tried two dishes but taste was excellent. Curry beef brisket was a little spicier than expected but tasty. Lunch special didn't come with drink but can be BB ordered separately. They give us complimentary soup before our dishes arrived.“

“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).“

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

“Great food small clean restaurant“

“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.“

“Fresh, delicious, excellent service;“

“These rice rolls are probably the best I've had in all of Richmond. I got the beef, pork and shrimp one. It comes with soy sauce and the chili sauce was delicious. The rice was done really nicely and the beef was impossibly tender. Highly recommended!“

“Recommend. We came after lunch time so it was quiet and quick to order. We ordered bbq pork and bbq duck on rice. My mom loves their bbq duck and it tastes so great and juicy. About the hygiene, we didn’t have any problems after eating so we might come back on our next travel.“

“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.“

“I almost skipped RGK after seeing all the negative reviews, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. I picked up a whole roast duck, and it was surprisingly good. The skin had a nice crispness, the meat was juicy, and the seasoning was well balanced without being overly salty. While others may have had different experiences, my order was fresh and met my expectations.“

“Daily discount special if you are done by 11:00“

“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.“

“Not bad but a bit pricey!“

“Came here for a cozy, nostalgic meal and left with a happy tummy AND a whole meal’s worth of leftovers.

Portions are BIG and great for sharing or taking home. Prices include a drink and soup, with no upcharge for iced drinks — they may have won me over with that alone.

Baked Cream Sauce Spinach & Basa Fillet on Rice — My goodness, I LOVE this dish. Everything I was craving: sauce, cheese, and fish, with portions that exceeded my expectations.

Shrimp & Swirl Egg with Flat Rice Noodles — Great wok hei, with nicely charred noodles and the perfect texture. As a pea hater, I was pleasantly surprised they weren’t included. The shrimp had a slightly alkaline taste from the marinade, but otherwise, really enjoyed this.

The borscht was tomatoey and acidic (not my preference, though my boyfriend loved it), while the cream soup was rich without being too heavy. The yuenyeung HK milk tea and coffee mix were tasty too.

$60 for 2 dishes, 2 drinks, and 2 soups is such good value. Will definitely be back to this homey cha chaan teng for more carb-heavy comfort food!“

“The shrimp wanton noodle is excellent. My son also enjoys the beef noodle.
The hotpot rice is not offered during lunch hours. Complimentary parking is provided. Remember to enter your vehicle's license plate number into the designated device located near the entrance.“

“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“

“It’s a strong 4 star for food and overall I’ll upgrade to a 5 star.

Dry beef flat noodle? 4/4.5 star.
Duck wrap (mushu duck) 4.5 star - nice wrap skin, solid duck
Soup dumpling - solid 4 star. Soup held inside.
Crispy milk dessert - 3 star, came out 2nd out of a dozen dishes. It wasn’t amazing but at least interesting that you could drink out the liquid with a straw.

Overall 4 star but I’ll round up to 5 star.“

“It’s not a typical restaurant, the owner/chef has great cooking sense, as he said he serves people who can enjoy the food he cook. I love the congee here, it’s the combination of congee and soup. Like the late night food I enjoy at Chinese new year night. Grandma will cook the rice with whatever soup left, the best in memory. Highly recommend to have a try, you might like or not like. It’s just personal preference. I do like it a lot“

“We were recommended to try the wonton noodle here because the one we went to for many years were so expensive and not as good as before.

This place is legit! This will now be my go to place for wonton noodle. Hands down.

The wonton was well marinated with sesame oil and 大地魚粉. You can taste the difference. Soup is also very good.“

“Friendly and efficient staff. Decent prices and food quantity & quality...“

“Everything was absolutely delicious and so fresh! The shrimp dim sum, seafood congee, and stir-fried vegetables were all amazing. The shrimp dishes were especially good — you could really taste how fresh the shrimp was in every bite. Everything was cooked perfectly, and I can’t wait to come back!“

“This Hong Kong-style cha chaan teng is surprisingly spacious, even during breakfast hours. When we visited in the morning, it was already fairly busy, suggesting that it is a popular spot for breakfast.

One of the best things about this place is the wide selection of Hong Kong-style breakfast options. You can go for traditional choices such as congee and steamed rice rolls, or opt for more contemporary cha chaan teng favourites like satay beef instant noodles, macaroni soup and omelettes. There is something for different tastes, whether you prefer a lighter traditional breakfast or a more filling meal.

The breakfast sets come with Hong Kong-style milk tea, which completes the experience. The pricing is particularly reasonable if you choose a set with two food items, making it good value for a satisfying start to the day.

Another plus is that the dishes are prepared after the order is placed, so the food arrives fresh and hot rather than having been sitting around. This makes a difference, especially for breakfast dishes that are best enjoyed straight from the kitchen.

Overall, this is a good place to visit when you are craving a Hong Kong-style breakfast. With its spacious dining area, extensive menu and reasonably priced breakfast sets, it offers a convenient way to start the day with some familiar cha chaan teng comfort food.“

“Good food and service, friendly staff.“

“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😩“

“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.“

“Very fresh seafood and dumplings !“

“Solid, delicious Northern Chinese food without the fancy markup! Took about 15 minutes for dish #1 to arrive on a Saturday night, but the quality and portion sizes made up for the wait. Reasonable prices, easy parking, decent bathrooms, and okay service that matches the laid-back atmosphere. Also, good news for cardholders, they now take all forms of payment!“

“Nice 👍🏻 nice 👍🏻“

“Lanxuan Restaurant is a modern Cantonese restaurant in Richmond, British Columbia, known for its refined dim sum, fresh seafood, and elegant dining atmosphere. Popular dishes include shrimp dumplings, BBQ pork buns, and creative Cantonese specialties, making it a favorite destination for both family meals and special occasions“

“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 the best steamed chicken I’ve ever had. It was incredibly juicy and tender, with so much flavor that no sauce was needed. It tasted amazing on its own.
The other dishes were good as well, but the steamed chicken was definitely the highlight. The salted egg yolk fried shrimp was delicious, and the coconut chicken soup was also a great choice. I’d come back again just for the chicken.“

“very good taste dimsum place, try the first time nd it surprisingly very tasty. recommended to make reservation. Siumay, Fried Rice, chicken feet, re really good. very clean restaurant but service is a bit slow. Bit pricey but worth the price.“

“Was there for dinner pretty late, it was at the end of closing time. We ordered 4 dishes and everything was pretty good except for the squid tentacles was over overcooked but flavoring was good. The service was a hit and miss, some of the staff was good and somr staff not so much, I understand its the end of the day and they are tired but they still need to give their best. One of the ladies was nice and gave some attention to us. Overall it was good.“

“Lots of parking on P7, but you have to make a reservation or they won't be able to serve you at all for dim sum on weekends. Even then there is a bit of a wait (~15 min) after you arrive.

The dim sum is generally good, although not spectacular - mostly in line with other dim sum places in Richmond.

I didn't realize when ordering that the house special red rice changfen is actually the same as the crispy prawn changfen, with only the rice in a different colour, or I wouldn't have ordered both. The menu doesn't specify the filling for the house special in either language. It's good, but too oily - it was dripping into the plate.

The salted plum goose feet were quite special, as I'd never had goose feet before, and salted plum isn't such a common flavour in cooking.

The rabbit jelly was ADORABLE. I expected the consistency to be softer, but they're actually firm enough to pick up. Taste 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“
