There are combinations, too---all explained in colorful, simple menus. There's also a grilling guide for suggested times to grill different items.

Service was prompt and friendly. The place is huge with many different rooms. Despite the cooking at each table, the room felt cool. Noise is at acceptable levels, despite a festive atmosphere.

No frills and worth the hype!…read more Our family of six arrived at 12 pm on a Tuesday. We waited approximately 25 minutes which is not bad at all considering how popular this small restaurant is. My mom is vegetarian and my girls had a wonton noodle soup lunch at another spot down the street. So we ordered a few things mainly for my dad, husband and myself: 1) Platter with barbecue pork and chicken (雙拼叉燒香油雞) 2) Half-order of roast duck (半隻脆皮燒鴨) 3) late of roast pork (燒肉) 4) Bowl of rice (一碗米飯) We cleared everything. The meats were juicy, tender, and flavorful. My girls are usually indifferent to Cantonese barbecued meats but they tried it and enjoyed everything as well. This is definitely a place to repeat if and when we revisit Vancouver.

The prices are expensive but the meat is actually very flavorful. We got the holy cow 5/5 for two people with a bowl of rice and we thought that it was a good amount of food as we are not huge eaters. We also got the A5 Wagu taster 5/5 which is incredibly marbled and super fatty delicious, literally melts in your mouth. Definitely save some rice for this piece.

The boneless fried chicken was good too. It was crispy yet still juicy. I would probably recommend getting one of the flavoured fried chicken instead of the original as it was a little plain.

Ingredients including tofu and meat inside are fresh and flavourful. Portions overall are quite large. The only downside is there are only three complimentary side dishes before the meal. Dishes like the potato ones taste overly sweet, and feel like they weren't prepared with much care. The service is friendly, and the location is decent. However, the restaurant looks a little dated. I'd suggest some renovations or a deeper clean. Overall it's still a good spot. We visited seven months ago, and this is our second time dining here.

Even without the free lunch set they are super great deals with most lunch sets $20 or less. I ordered a beef toro, pork and chicken lunch combo. It was a lot of food! The lunch set comes with salad, soup, side garnishes, rice, and the three meats. I love that they clearly label each meat. The sauce was delicious and the meats generally pretty good. I loved the toro - very fatty the way I like it and cooks quickly. The chicken was very delicious and juicy just takes much longer to cook of course. The pork was only OK. It wasn't the fatty one and kind of dry. My wife loved her udon and also we got a steamed salmon. You grill it in a closed container and it was good, the salmon goes well with the ginger. Also got a green tea mochi dessert and they stick a birthday candle sparkler thing on it. Fun and good! Ordering is super easy via an iPad like thing and they are pretty helpful. Love to come back!

This is also a good place for lunch or happy hour from 2-5pm. Service is excellent and Andy was very helpful with recommendations. I liked their modern and clean environment, cozy ambiance with comfortable booths. Meat was fresh and our combo set came with a salad, rice and soup - a nice balance of veggies, carbs and proteins. This place doesn't offer free parking and the parking fees are of Vancouver standard at around $14 for 2 hours. You can purchase parking time by minutes so perhaps you can park for 1.5 hours and cap it at around $10.50. They offer very good quality beef but no lamb options here. I really enjoyed that they offer hot umecha and dessert pairing of vanilla ice cream with rose or plum sake. Refreshing finish to the pleasant dining experience at Homura!
