Noodles in Richmond, BC

“Spacious seating, yummy food and good value. My son loves this place!“

“I love their Hot and Sour beef brisket potato noodles🍜! The broth is perfectly rich and tangy, and the potato noodles have the perfect chewy texture. Generous toppings with lots of fresh cilantro🌱 and crispy peanuts. A must-try if you love bold, spicy flavors🌶!“

“Wow the food is fantastic. It was very difficult to decide on what to try. I ended up with the “hot & sour dumpling soup” and the “beef slice in Chinese pancake.” Both are a must try.“

“This place has a non-stop line of people ordering and you can tell why. Their speciality is the Taiwanese style fried chicken leg (boneless) or their Taiwanese salty fried chicken nuggets combo with rice and 3 sides they give you. Before I get into their deliciousness of the chicken, their sides are killer too. They give you a handful of veggies of the day, a thick piece of matinated tofu patty, and soya sauce marinated egg. Protein heaven already. Their chicken is so freshly deep fried, just the right amount of spices, hot, juicy and tender on the inside. Sprinkle some of their red powder on the side if you want more heat. Their portion is huge! They don't skimp out at all! I normally eat 3/4 and pack the rest home. All for $15! Bring cash as with all Richmond vendors!“

“Authentic Vietnamese dishes, tasty foods, good portions. 👍🏻 Salad rolls included special herbs (rau thom & he). 😋 Clean restaurant and nice services. 😍“

“Very delicious ramen 🍜 the soup is outstanding.“

“super delicious food and very nice staff! we came with our little kids and they were so accommodating and helpful! Will definitely come back! We also got energy bites and smoothies and they were amazing!“

“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.“

“6 stars! Best Ramen in BC so far for me.“

“very good service, good ramen too. I like it that you get to choose your broth, noodles and oil (more, normal, light).“

“My first time here. I ordered the house special pho #10 in satay sauce. Spicy and good. It does take time for food to arrive but good things are worth the wait. So full of flavour and delicious. Hurts so good. Service is good. The pricing is right on.“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“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!“

“awesome food, fast friendly service 🥢⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“One of the better Shanghai restaurants I've tried lately around Vancouver.

Decent, Chinese restaurant type, service. Food came quick and hot. Well petioned and modestly priced. Enjoyed the flavours, the standout dishes were:
Crispy ribs in black vinegar sauce, egg yolkl prawns, drunken chicken. Very nice XLB and the pork with black fungus in spicy sauce with pancakes was very tasty. The pancakes were super thin and delicious.

Will make the trip out to Richmond again for this restaurant.“

“Best spring rolls and beef noodle soup in Richmond.“

“I found this is the best Chinese restaurant in Vancouver 👍👍👍“

“Great food with gigantic proportions. Very spicy very delicious. Service was so good the servers are very sweet and ready to help. Atmosphere is great, lovely design of furnitures and funny little quotes on the walls. Very enjoyable very authentic experience“

“Santouka has always been one of my favourite ramen chains, so I was excited to finally check out the Richmond location. This location opened in 2024 and this is my first time here. Whenever I visit a Santouka, my standard order is the Kara Miso Ramen, it's my benchmark bowl and the one I always compare against.

The Kara Miso Ramen was exactly what I was hoping for, a rich, creamy pork broth with a nice miso flavour and just enough spice to keep every spoonful interesting. It reminded me why this remains my go-to order after all these years.

I also tried the Black Garlic Ramen, which had a deeper, more savoury flavour thanks to the black garlic oil. The aburi chashu added a nice smoky touch and made for a great contrast to the Kara Miso.

As a side, we ordered the Zangi. Crispy, juicy, and perfect for sharing.“

“yummy food great prices 😋 👌“

“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.“

“Very good food, good portions and price. I got the #5 (Lamb spine noodles spicy) and my friend got #1 (Lanzhou noodles with beef) and we both enjoyed our dishes, though we really enjoyed the spicy lamb spine the best. The staff were very kind aswell. Definitely worth a try^^“

“Highly recommended by a friend, we went together for some frozen dumplings today. We have the shrimps wonton, cilantro & pork dumplings and Chinese celery & pork dumplings. Since 1st time in the shop, we got only the 1/2 portion pack which is 20 pcs each. If good, then we will get the big pack later but needs to make sure the freezer can accommodate them.“

“It's an alright Chinese noodle place in the Yaohan food court. We ordered the hotpot noodle as well as the tomato based one.

The hotpot one is very good value as it has a lot of ingredients. And it stays hot since it is served in the hotpot. The tomato based one wasn't as good, but it might be our lack of exposure to this type of taste.

Wanted to try it since other restaurants had very long lineups but not sure if we'll try again as the other food court options are more suitable for our palette.“

“Just a quick clarification, this is a store and not a restaurant that is owned by Dinesty Dumpling House. We have to cook these premade frozen dumplings and reheat them at home. The quality is surprisingly somewhat retained. Cheap and affordable, also tasty.

Google maps should have another category for this cause this is definitely not a restaurant…“

“Great vietnamese ice coffee! Super strong and really good ! Haven't eaten here before but always grab a viet coffee while buying a vape next door. Takes about 7 mins to wait for ice coffee (espresso drip into condensed milk etc) highly reccomend. Super friendly“

“I feel like the portions at this location at much smaller than the portions at their Capstan location which unfortunately closed. The spice level here is pretty low too. I got the spiciest level sauerkraut beef dish and it was only a tiny bit spicy. However the taste is still great and there aren’t that many authentic sichuan restaurants so I can still see myself coming back.“

“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!“

“I’ve been here twice, because after the first time I had the A1 (spicy beef brisket noodle soup with a fried egg added) I couldn’t stop thinking about it haha. It’s a solid option when in the market looking for food. I haven’t tried much else from them but the soup is solid. Will definitely be coming back when I crave it again.“

“Caution: Ive received a $1 hong kong coin instead of a loonie.

I went to grab lunch at Richmond Public Place and noticed a the stall under new management. The colorful displays immediately caught my attention. There were many people waiting in line as compare to the old management. I had already ordered food from another stall, so I just decided to try their cold milk tea. It took a while to get it (about 10 minutes), but it was good, and I recommend it. I will definitely come back next time to try their baked pork chop with rice as I noticed it's a very generous portion size.“

“Really lovely and relaxing atmosphere. Perfectly cozy for an autumnal evening with my partner, quiet and relaxed. Service is to the point which I have no issue with! Great tasting food at a reasonable price and the staff has always accommodated our requests for different or more sauces. My new spot!“

“I didn’t have high expectations for the rice noodles, since it’s a very common, everyday dish in China.

The original rice noodles came in a stone pot. Even without a flame, it was still boiling hot, which was nice. The chicken knees were okay, but the spicy powder had that artificial, chemical-like smell—you know, the kind often found in mass-produced seasoning. It was a bit off-putting.

Overall, the food was still acceptable. Service was typical of a Chinese restaurant—basically no service, but at least nothing negative.“

“This place has to be one of the best xiao long bao spots in Vancouver. Everything was delicious. Both the xiao long bao and sheng jian bao were really good. Got the peanut wonton as well which I think was a great addition but I kinda want the peanut flavor to be a bit stronger. I also loved the crispy rice with salted egg sauce and the wine chicken. We went during lunch on a weekend, so there was a queue and we had to wait about 20 minutes, but the food came out fairly quickly.“

“fast friendly service and great food!!“

“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.“

“Really nice homely place that serves your Cantonese style dishes. They have special noodle soups that you will see at authentic Canton cafes at a reasonable price. You can also add a drink for a quick lunch and break before you go on your way. Bring cash if you're looking to order as they don't accept card“

“- One of our family's favorite food stalls at the Aberdeen Centre food court. Over the past year, we've dined here frequently

- These are some of our favorite items available at this stall:

* $15.99 Large Combo A "Lamb Soup." The best lamb soup in GVA! It comes in a big bowl, much bigger than its competitors'. It has lots of ingredients and soup. It's not too salty or heavy. I'd say it's perfect. It also comes with a veggie appetizer and a delicious "Crispy Cake."

* Although the "Crispy Cake" comes with the Lamb Soup, we often buy them separately. A ready-to-eat one costs $3, and frozen ones cost $2.5 each. We buy them frozen and air-fry them at home. They're delicious!

* $12.99 Combo H with 12 lamb dumplings. Deliciously just right. The only complaint with this is that they use paper trays and dumplings get stuck to the tray, often ripping the dumpling and spilling its contents.

- when we first found this place, the female counter staff - presuming she was the owner - can only speak Mandarin. No English. No Cantonese. My Mandarin sucks. Communication between us often lost in translation. Because of this, I only came once in a blue moon. Now, she finally hired someone who speaks fluent Cantonese, Mandarin and English. And she's friendly. Good job!! I come here more and more often now! ???

.“

“Got the pot for 2 people to share, perfect portion size if not more than expected. Loved the thick noodles! The ribs melted in my mouth and the lamb was very flavourful. Only issue was that I expected the pot to come with free noodles, but the online ordering system said we had to pick one option for noodles and every option was +$1.5. Our total before tips came out to be ~$39.“

“Great food big portions and great price told my friends about this restaurant 👍👍“

“Tak Fook Noodles and Congee shop in Parker Place is a true delight for lovers of Hong Kong-style cuisine. Their BBQ pork on rice is excellent, and the roast duck is simply great. The wonton soup deserves five stars for its rich, authentic flavor. Their congee is also exceptional, offering comforting warmth and taste. All of this comes at a bargain price, making it an incredible value. This food court gem delivers top-notch dishes with friendly service, making it a must-visit spot!“

“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).“

“We were not hungry and just wanted a quick snack. This spring onion pancake was perfect for that.

Its layers gave a great texture, it was crispy outside and chewy inside. It was quite tasty as well.

We would come back to try its other items.

The only thing was it seemed many people just sitting in the food court occupying tables. As a result, it might be difficult to find a table available for a family.“

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

“food was great, this one server is nice, it was an ok atmosphere.

other than the cash & debit only, i think this place is really good and way better than the other franchises ive personally been to, wish i couldve tipped more.“

“😀I'm a fan of the original location in Richmond so I had to try the new location in White Rock. Food is fabulous with the same attention to detail and sumptuous flavours. I recommend the cocktail flight which is original and so good!“

“Update 2025. I was there just after opening at 9AM, line up already.

During the past few years, there’s been some changes, not exactly sure of the scope of change but probably involves staff and mode of operation.

I find it impossible to phone in order ahead of time, so one must go through the line-up process, the wait can become very long.

I also find the quality of cooking a little different, still good but somehow not as delicious as before, most likely cooks/cooking method changed.

I ordered a breakfast with vermicelli, my vermicelli was ready about 5 minutes before my eggs were ready, so they were close to being cold when the eggs were done. The eggs were overcooked, I did not ask for it that way.

Prices have gone up so deals are not so great but still a bargain, breakfast went up about 50-60%.

Still a very convenient and comfortable dining experience. But watch out for the long lineups. Enjoy.

2020 Great Milk Tea!!!!!! Great Prices. Best deal in Richmond. Food quality quite good.“
