    One of my favorite Dim Sum place in Montreal for a couple of reasons: 1. It has a parking lot. 2. It's close to a shopping area and easily accessible by car. 3. No long waiting lines 4. The food is good and the price is reasonable. There's a reason why I put the food and price last in that list because it's not amazing. You won't find Hong Kong quality in any of the dim sum places in Montreal and that's because ...you aren't in Hong Kong. The food is not good for everyone : don't expect low cal health food and don't expect anything vegetarian (even the bok choy are served with seafood). Don't go there if you don't like seafood or pork. Don't go there if you expect to be served in french.. it won't happen. It's my favorite place because it has a lot of seating, hardly any waiting time and it's great for family Sunday brunch or for a good time with friends. I enjoy their food and their variety of dim sum. They have a good variety of dumplings and lots of fried seafood. I really like their egg tarts. The lady pushing the carts are very nice and the prices are good. You won't get good customer service and you shouldn't expect to get good customer service from that place. The servers are running like headless chicken trying to tend for every table and they are well oiled machines. The tables are cleared as soon as the guests leave to make place for new customers.. that's how they cut down on waiting time. Just like how they do it in Asia. If you want good food and a good time and you enjoy dim sum food, I highly suggest Maison Foo Lam. A nice experience without the glitters of a high end restaurant but you will always have a good time and come out full.

    This chinese restaurant is not the best in town. However, there's a parking lot, so it's a mega plus for me since I hate having to find parking on the streets. The restaurant is spacious and looks like any typical chinese restaurants. I've been there many times, the food are ok. Not the best, but not the worse that I've eaten. Been there for dim sum and dinner. I'd say that I'd suggest dinner at this restaurant more than dim sum... Prices are competitive, or even a bit cheaper than other chinese restaurants!

    I went for family meal many times. I dont like their dim sum food since it is too oily and salty. U have to drink many glasses of water once home. The remaining food depends on the day you come. Sometimes is ok. If you go on weekends there are so many persons have to wait a line.

    The food was okay, except for the beef. Service was slow, the bathroom was dirty, and the utensils didn't seem clean.

    We went to Kim Fung restaurant since it a dim sum restaurant that was opened early in the morning…read more We normally go to Ruby Rouge, but they opened at 10. The restaurant was in a shopping plaza. We went inside and was told to take a seat. The restaurant was not very crowded. We were given an order sheet to order our dim sums. We ordered our usual dim sum items like beef rice rolls, shrimp hai gow, etc. The food was pretty good and tasty. Service was gruff and impatient. Would we go back? Yes since the food was pretty good.

Kim Fung is a in a shopping center and was pretty full but we were able to be seated right away. They brought up dishes on carts and we were able to order even though our table was in the corner. While we were there, the fire alarm was ringing. It did not seem like there was a fire, and three fire trucks even came to check things out, but no one inside the restaurant seemed concerned so everyone kept eating. The food was good but it was a little annoying eating with the fire alarm on. We ordered a lot of dim sum classics that we eat back home in California but it seemed like the prices were lower than what we normally pay back home. The bill once we figured our the CAD-USD conversion seemed very reasonable. If we're in town again and the fire alarm isn't loud, we'll try it again.

I loved the modern calligraphy art on the walls and the clear love of making and serving dumplings at this shop. It was a no frills ordering experience and cash only. Let's keep things simple so you can get your face in some dumplings fast! We ordered wonton soup dumplings (chicken and shrimp). We also got the pork original soup dumplings followed by the pork and crab soup dumplings. Everything came out quickly and nice and piping hot . The size of the dumplings were good along with sufficient soup in them! The cabbage salad also was delicious with a nice horseradish(?) kick to it! We've been to many soup dumpling places in multiple cities and Mai Xiang Yuan is definitely one of our top picks

One important thing to note: this place is cash‑only, and there's an ATM right at the entrance. That was literally the first thing the employee told us when we walked in, which felt a bit off‑putting. The dumplings themselves were great, and we ordered beers to go with the meal. However, the payment experience was not good. He quoted the total as 70 CAD and told us that was 62 USD since we said we had USD. When we calculated it ourselves, it came out to 49 USD. After we pointed that out, he claimed the "foreign transaction fees go up and down with inflation," which didn't make sense. It felt like we were almost being overcharged. So we ended up getting CAD from the ATM machine outside and paid him, however, we didn't appreciate his dishonesty and felt like he was trying to scam us.

Super modern and clean with very high ceilings, bright orange and green trim over white walls. Amazing logo, specialty packaging for each genre of dish. Very Instagrammable and by design; I imagine. Also has a little bit of a modern Hong Kong cafe. Friendly counter person and a great hustle bustle vibe. Upon an subsequent visit I can now say that the dim sums I mentioned above are spot on and the salt and pepper chicken rice bowl was also no slouch. I preferred the appetizers between the two and look forward to trying more of their focused and fun menu. Love the signature chopsticks and attention to packaging detail. They've got it going on!
