    This is my favorite place for Dim Sum. I now live 900 miles away but this is the place I stop when I come to visit.

We ordered the following: Neptune shrimp dumplings (皇廷水晶蝦餃) Shrimp and pork shao mai (飛魚子燒賣皇) Crystal crab claw dumplings (水晶蟹拑餃) Black truffle wild mushroom dumpling (黑松露野菌餃) Taro dumpling with pork and shrimp (傳統家鄉芋角) Rice rolls with mushroom (三菇腸粉) Beef tendons (秘製醬爆牛筋) Sauteed chang fen (豉油皇煎手拉腸粉) Everything was delicious. The dumplings were delicate with very thin wraps. The sauteed chang fen takes at least 30 minutes to be prepared and cooked. It was definitely worth the wait. The chang fen was smooth and thin.

One person dropped off a pot of hot water and green tea but never came back to refill. It took forever for them to take our sheet of the Dim Sum items we wanted to order, we had to stop someone to take our sheet and it took a while for the food to arrive. We were never checked on and had to ask two different servers for a few take out boxes for the leftover food. Someone finally gave us two small containers and dropped off the check..no thank you or anything. They didn't seem very busy, maybe four tables of customers.

The interior was nice and modern. Comfy chairs, sleek tables and I got to choose a bigger table with a lazy Susan in the middle. A couple of staff members were quick to help us with teas or anything else we needed. We chose the Yang Chow Fried Rice which came in a very unique pyramid configuration. We also ordered eggplant, har gow, sui mai and BBQ pork buns. All were pretty standard, with my only disappointment being the BBQ pork buns. I'm not sure what happened with the steamer or the steaming process, but 2/3 buns in the bamboo container came out looking good and fluffy, but the third came out looking and feeling quite soggy. Good solid choice for Dim Sum if you are in South Surrey. I'd be interested in trying their dinner dishes in the near future.

Which means not the friendliest or best, but that is usually the sign of a great restaurant. We had to ask for the dim sum menu, which isn't extensive but has all the staples. Siu Mai, har gow, char siu bao. The food was decent and we did order one other dish off the regular menu, which was a veggie dish, but they said they could only make Chinese broccoli for lunch. Honestly, there are other restaurants in this strip mall plaza that I'd try before going back, but in a pinch it isn't terrible.

    Dropped in here for lunch…read more The decor was clean and modern, but there was some packaging lying around on the front tables. I ordered the cucumber salad and seafood fried rice with XO sauce, as well as tea. The tea came first, with a very nice Western style porcelaib pot and cup and saucer. Elegant! The cucumber salad had an interesting dressing, slightly sweet, but with a healthy amount of garlic. Somehow, for me, it worked. The cucumber was very fresh and served as a nice neutral base to build the flavors on. I was warned when I ordered the fried rice that it was spicy. Well, it was slightly tingly, but nothing major for my tastes. The rice was soft and loose and flavourful. Surprised by what looked like short grain rice. The rice came with some kind of whitefish, shrimp, and scallops. Also very finely diced red and green peppers, carrots, and onions. It was very flavorful, the seafood was very fresh and perfectly cooked, and tasty without being salty. I got a refill of hot water for my tea without asking, which was very appreciated. Price for one person was a bit high, but portions were large enough for sharing between two, and compared to other prices on the White Rock Beach, this wasn't too bad. A good spot for some good Chinese good!

    I am writing to express my disappointment and concern regarding the experience my coworker and I…read morehad at your restaurant today. My coworker and I have been regular customers for almost a year because we genuinely enjoyed the food and the overall experience. Unfortunately, our visit today was extremely upsetting because of the way we were treated by the manager, Ms. Yang (possibly Rihanna Yang). During our visit, there was a misunderstanding regarding our order. A chicken dish was brought to our table, but we had not ordered it. I immediately explained that we did not order this dish and that I do not eat chicken due to an allergy/preference. We had ordered a fish dish instead. Instead of calmly checking the order or trying to resolve the misunderstanding, Ms. Yang repeatedly insisted, in a very loud voice in front of other customers, that we had ordered the chicken dish and that we had to eat it. She continued saying that we had to accept the dish and pay for it, even after I explained multiple times that we did not order it. The situation became very uncomfortable and embarrassing. Other customers were watching as she raised her voice at us. I politely asked her several times to please calm down and not speak to us in that manner, but she continued insisting and arguing. I even confirmed with my assistant, who was sitting with me, that neither of us had ordered the chicken dish, and she also confirmed that she had not heard us order it. A professional way to handle this situation would have been to apologize for the misunderstanding, check the order, and offer a solution. Instead, we felt pressured and disrespected. By the end of the interaction, I had completely lost my appetite and could no longer enjoy the food we had ordered. After asking her to remove the dish, she eventually took it away but told us that we were no longer welcome at the restaurant. After being loyal customers for almost a year, I found this response extremely disappointing and unacceptable. I understand that mistakes can happen in restaurants, but the way a situation is handled is what defines good customer service. Unfortunately, the way this matter was handled was unprofessional, embarrassing, and made us feel unwelcome. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and that appropriate steps are taken to ensure customers are treated with respect and professionalism in the future.

    I have never had such a terrible experience in all of my dining history. The rudeness, the…read moreexperience, the degradation at highest level To my surprise, it was the owner. Riona. I can hardly believe that Riona is the owner. You can have great food, but good customer service is hard to find. Fishermans Chinese fusion gets the highest award for rudeness, and going out of her way to winning an Academy award for poor sportsmanship and customer service.
