I have eaten there many times. The set menu is great value and the service is first-class. The waiters are all beautiful ladies and handsome guys. The fish is also super delicious. Parking is also very convenient.

I found the sauerkraut fish way too oily and “numbing”. The flavor of the broth was bland and didn’t deliver the complex aromatics of the usual sauerkraut fish. Servings for the other dishes were small and tasted only soso. Did enjoy their complimentary fruit tea though.The staff had their dinner at a table close to us and were all vaping.Probably won’t be back

Service is definitely 10/10. Very attentive and friendly. As soon as we submitted our order through QR code, we received the food in 15 minutes. That’s crazy speed. 酸菜魚 itself is very spicy, however the server gave us a bowl of pure chicken soup, so we can wash off the spiciness a bit, it did helps a lot. The tea they serve when you sit it’s very delicious too.

This restaurant has a really pretty exterior and interior. I recommend coming early as there is always a long line. Ordered the Chinese sauerkraut fish along with the noodles. Thought it was pretty decent, it started getting spicier towards the end.

I've always enjoyed the 'Tai Er' pickled sour fish dish and its boneless chicken feet. The fish is fresh, the pickled vegetables taste great, the price is reasonable, the service is good, and the atmosphere is youthful.

Do not order takeout here. The portions are half the size of those for dine-in. We dined in and were able to feed 3 people with the portion we ordered, which cost $48 and was considered small. However, when we opted for takeout, the same $48 could barely feed about 1.5 person. They also charge $3 for a bowl of plain rice. I’ve never heard of any place that charges $2 for a small bowl of rice. If you enjoy this dish, try the store in Crystal Mall called “Fish with You.” They offer great portions, and allows you to add other vegetables and toppings. Best of all, FOC free flow rice and it’s less than half the price of this place.

The first time I had Tai Er was in Vancouver. When we sat down, everyone was served a cup of hot tangerine peel and roselle tea. The pickled fish soup base is very authentic and has all the ingredients. It is just right spicy, numbing and sour, and the soup is thicker (much better than x Blue Whale). I believe the soup base is probably sent directly from China. It is difficult for local chefs to make it like this. Level, only fish is not the same thing. There is a kind called (tilapia). It seems that the only choice for eating pickled fish in Vancouver is tilapia. The fish should be fresh, but the fish meat is a little loose. The fishy smell is very strong, but Taier’s pickled cabbage soup is so good that it covers up the lack of fish. The fried dough sticks are a must-order to soak up the soup and are very delicious. Order the plain noodles to soak up the soup and get another mouthful. The atmosphere in the store is also good, and the service attitude of the waiters is also very good. They are all young people.

Excellent service and beautiful restaurant. Just terrible food.1. Pork was swine-y tasting2. Fish was not fresh borderline fowl3. EVERYTHING had a lot of MSG...This restaurant was highly recommended by a friend, but looks like the food has gone severely downhill....
