We picked one of their signature dishes - spicy fried fish $38.99. Oh boy, the fish looked so big and full of flavors. We did enjoy it although it was a little bit too spicy for us. Two of us couldn't finish it. When we finished our meal, they brought us dessert which was made of yam, nice and warm. Around 7:00, the restaurant was almost full. The interior is minimal, but clean and bright. We will go back to try more dishes.

Items that I got this visit: - har gow shrimp dumplings: overall pretty good, but the wrapper was a bit thicker than I expected. Would prefer a thinning dumpling wrapper - chicken feet: excellent, very tender and flavor was great - tofu skin wrap in abalone sauce: pretty good, the meat inside was lean and well balanced with the veggies - spare ribs in black bean sauce: this was a bit of a disappointment. The ribs were a bit tough and also underseasoned. It could have used some more salt and some extra cook time. Service was fine, nothing special. The restaurant overall was pretty nice and modern. I hope to come back sometime and try some other dishes.

There were a good number of tables available and we were seated right away. We shared the following: -Crab meat, egg white, and fish maw super bowl congee -Shredded pork with preserved egg and salted egg congee -Cantonese chow mein -BBQ rice noodle roll -Fried dough fritter / Youtiao -Turnip cake Food came out fast and it was plentiful. Both the congees we ordered were the small size but it was bigger than expected. Both were good but my child and I both preferred the shredded pork with preserved and salted egg congee. The youtiao was fresh and crispy and went well with the congee. The BBQ rice noodle roll was good but pretty standard. The turnip cake came out as a big platter of small bite size pieces which was a surprise. It was okay (not as flavorful) but I prefer the large square pieces. They gave us dessert soup at the end which was good but I had no room in my stomach to eat it. We realized we over ordered for a group of 3 adults and 1 child and packed everything to take home except the youtiao and BBQ rice noodle roll.

Located in The Chase plaza, this Chinese restaurant serves Cantonese cuisine. Lots of parking…read moreavailable. The decor and interior is a bit rundown -- the booth we sat in had duct tape over the seat to keep it together -- leftover from previous restaurants that were in this unit. But it is a large dining space that comfortably fits lots of people -- good for large and small groups. Service is very slow -- even on a week night. It's very hard to get their attention for assistance. Unlike typical Chinese restaurants, they don't seem to hurry to flip tables. Prices are reasonable, and portion is good. Food can be a hit or miss. At a recent dinner with family, we ordered: Steamed Chicken, Stir-fry Green Beans, Sweet & Sour Pork, Pumpkin with Salted Egg Yolk and an Egg White Fried Rice. The meal came with a free chicken soup to start and that was good. The fried rice and chicken were good. The other three dishes tasted ok but were more fatty and greasy. Couldn't eat much of them, and put a damper on the whole meal. On a previous visit, we did have a very good wonton noodle soup. That's probably the only thing I'd return for. Overall, this please really is "just OK". Would choose other restaurants in Mississauga before this one. But in a pinch, it would do. Also FYI: If you have leftovers, note that they charge extra for each takeaway container you request! So bring your own containers, or finish all your food if possible.

If you're ordering from the "Large Plate" section of the menu, make sure you come with a healthy appetite--the portions are generous and meant to be savored. We enjoyed the Wok-Seared Short Ribs and the Run Free Chicken with Black Truffle, and both dishes were absolutely outstanding. The short ribs were tender, rich, and packed with flavor, while the black truffle elevated the chicken into something truly memorable. From the ambiance to the incredible food, every detail made for a wonderful evening. Lai Wah Heen is an excellent choice for a romantic dinner or any occasion worth celebrating. We'll definitely be back!

During weekdays during the day there's not many workers so the service can be very slow. They're quick during the weekends and very busy. They also have a vip card for $25 which gives you 10% off the bill and free tea. The amount of times we go here and the food we order I think we already made the card worth. The place is clean and spacious. They have many table and some private dining for celebrations. We have celebrated some birthdays here and they're able to accommodate at least 15 people or so. I enjoy eating their typical dimsum dishes on the menu i.e. Siu mai, Har gow, salted egg yolk bun, egg tarts, turnip cake with shrimp. Their claypot rice is not bad as well. Giving it 4 stars because there were times when service is slow.

My go-to dish is always the e-fu noodle w/ minced pork and eggplant. Saucy, slightly spicy and slurpy. Delish. I usually pair it together w/ cold milk tea, zero sugar. Absolutely hits the spot on NFL sundays. Sometimes the chef will have an off day because sometimes the noodles come out a lil dry and not as saucy. I find it hard to complain though ... cuz of that price and the fat portions. Definitely not the nicest aunties working the restaurant when you walk in. You actually get death stares from several of em but if you speak cantonese and you're ordering takeout you'll be fine LOL. 3.5/5 stars (as the food quality is a mixed bag on some days) but I'll round up to 4 stars since the lunch price and portion size is sensational.

The food is pretty decent and the portions are more than fair. The most attractive thing is the price. Lunch special starting at $8.85 a dish with a drink included, you absolutely cannot complain. I mean, this is pricing from like 2013. What more do you want? Now the only thing people do complain about this place, is the service. Good service does not exist here (mostly). As I said earlier, they are pretty traditional. If you've been to some more local restaurants in HK, you'd understand. Yes there will be some old Chinese ladies yelling at each other. Yes, their attitude can be bad at times when they are super busy. But for $8.85 and a drink? I think I can live without the "good" service and pay $15-$20/dish. All in all I'd give them 4.5/5.

The food was definitely the highlight. The clams were amazingly fresh with absolutely no sand, which was impressive!!! The signature roast duck was delicious with flavorful duck meat taste. The fried rice was so good, and the water spinach was cooked perfectly. Every dish matched the flavors I love, and we really enjoyed our meal.
