Family Restaurants near Richmond, BC

“This popular Hunan restaurant is a bit out of the way and leans toward northern Chinese flavors. The four of us ordered four dishes, with an average cost of around 40 RMB per person. One standout is the fried dough sticks (youtiao), which are presented in a unique way—hung up like slabs of pork. If you can’t handle spicy food, don’t try to push your limits here. The service is quite slow—very, very slow—which likely means the dishes are freshly made rather than pre-cooked. There’s no parking right at the entrance, so you’ll need to find a spot in the mall or park at Walmart nearby.“

“I recently visited this New York Fries location and had an amazing experience. I ordered the Truffle Fries with extra cheese sauce, and they were hot, fresh, and loaded generously — no skimping at all.

The cashier who took my order stood out the most. Even with his mask on, he was friendly, engaging, and had a positive attitude that really made the visit enjoyable. It’s rare to see that kind of genuine service these days.

Quick service, delicious food, and staff who actually care — this spot is a winner. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Kudos 👏“

“Another fantastic experience at White Spot on Sweden Way!
My husband and I had an excellent visit today thanks to Vijay and Ogety. The service was outstanding — professional, friendly, and genuinely focused on making sure we had a great experience. Our server was incredibly attentive, and Vijay checked in on us as well as other tables with such care and consistency.
This location continues to be our favourite White Spot because of the consistently great service. The food was really good, and the team here always makes us feel welcomed and well taken care of.
Highly recommend this White Spot and a big thank you to Vijay and Ogety for making our visit so enjoyable.“

“Logan is a great server! He was super attentive and kind. We got the coconut shrimp and pirogies. The food came quickly and was good, but it was nothing extraordinary. But Logan made up for it with his charming presence. What a cutie! I will be returning with my friends soon!“

“We’ve visited this place on halloween and a total of three times now, and each time Carlo has been our server — he’s absolutely fantastic! His service is consistently attentive, friendly, and professional. Carlo always makes us feel welcome and remembers our preferences.The food and atmosphere are great, but his outstanding service truly makes the experience even better. Highly recommend asking for Carlo if you visit!“

“I've been coming here for years... the staff are always amazing... without fail!... yes, sometimes the food isnt always perfect(during busy times) but they always fix it in a heartbeat... eg. fries aren't always hot... however, it's hands down the best family restaurant in north van! I always leave there happy.“

“Great food!Great service!“

“I have been a regular for a few years and I love this Whitespot! I wanted to say how lovely these two hosts up at the front are when I see them - Sienna and Ale. They have been so fantastic at the front greeting, so friendly, beautiful smiles as they greet you, and very professional. Fantastic service from the hosts and servers!“

“we went and stayed at the Parq Vancouver and we went to Honey Salt each day for food and amazing cocktails! the staff was so friendly and the Bar head manager was so kind and friendly. I recommend everyone visit . also the 11 layer banana/chocolate cake is to die for! also try the Korean chicken bites!“

“My husband and I sometimes get breakfast from here. We like the menu options that they have, and they are a 5-minute drive from our home. Unfortunately, the service is hit or miss. Some of the young ladies at the front are very friendly and some not as much. We're not really bothered by that. Too much because usually we're just there to pick up our food. We have been here for dining in the past as well, and the service has been pretty good. I like that the food is consistent from one location to the next, so you know what you're getting when you order it.“
