Absolutely excellent all around. With there with my wife and her family, who are Taiwanese. They love the place and when we were there, the only people dining were also asian (if you know about good asian food, seeing asians in the restaurant means it's GOOD). portions were huge, made promptly. Everything was delicious, minimally salty, NOT sugary. They gave us complimentary seaweed soup, delicious. Location is clean, well kept. We are definitely going back!

Family favorite since my childhood. Convenient location near Fubonn shopping centre, authentic cantonese food with generous portions, and speedy and understanding service. The flavor of the dishes at Yan Zi Lou are frangrant, balanced, and not too greasy. Keep in mind that plates come out very full, and feed a crowd! Atmosphere at night is sometimes dampened by smokers lingering by the restaurant entrance, polluting the air at entry. This is particularly at night time. However, aside from this, Yan Zi Lou is highly recommended!

I probably will never have Chinese food again. This restaurant, like the others, is inconsistent. First two times I ordered seafood crispy noodles, the sauce was white and then today, it had soy sauce. I had them redo it but there was no sauce when they gave it back.

We bought seafood from a supermarket then came here to have the restaurant chef cooked them. They listed the cooking fees on the wall so there are so many customers bringing their seafood and let the restaurant cooking it. The cooking was perfect. Love all dishes.

First time dinning at the restaurant in my old neighborhood. Never knew it was here because it’s hidden off 82nd ave. and amid just regular residential buildings. The staff was very friendly and was surprised that we’re dinning in at 10:00am on a Sunday morning. All the food we ordered did not disappoint and was very good and fresh. The squid was soft and tender which shows that the cook really know what he is doing. With its large oversized tables that can accommodate 10-12 people. Will definitely bring the family to enjoy more of the food from the vast menu. Parking is very limited and shared with several other small restaurants.

The food was all rightAt the end of the meal the waitress brought us our change and literally blocked us from being able to leave the restaurant and demanded that we give her a tip. And we were told that we cannot go in and gamble although there was somebody (Asian) in there gambling. I have never In my life experienced such a rude, entitled server. Then to be denied access to video poker. I won't go back to this restaurant.
This is a solid place to get some authentic Cantonese style food. We ordered a good amount of food to share among the table. Some of the standout dishes to me were the beef chow fun as it had a good charred/smoked flavor on the noodles, the pork rib sizzling pot had really good flavors, roast pork, and the sizzling beef. The veggie dishes were a good balance to the meat dishes (it was sad that they ran out of the seasonal veggies). My friends enjoyed the fish and the egg flower soup. The only dish that was mediocre to them was the calamari.

*but parking slightly hard to find during busy hours, there’s an additional park lot if you drove in to the right (I haven’t parked there so not sure how big it is, but it’s there. Just kinda tucked away)
