White radish cake

Can't say much for the service - but the food is great! Excellent items and a wide variety of dimsum and food that is on par with large cities with a high Chinese population. We had a private room with 20 people so we definitely had the typical challenges of large parties. However, the food came out quite quickly and tasted fresh and with excellent quality. The reason I mention the service is that when we asked for napkins we were told that they couldn't help us because that was another staff member! It was okay because we brought our own extra tissue paper (ha

Special set prices
Angela W.

We met up with some friends for dinner and ordered a special set for $88 for 3 dishes but there's also a stipulation to add 2 more dishes from the regular menu. For the set...we chose the stir fry fresh ling cod, clay pot w/cod belly and tossed chicken in truffle sauce. Other 2 dishes we added are braised prawns w/leeks+ Ong Choi w/ beef. They used less salt and less oil so that's much healthier if one dines out frequently! Our reservation was for 5:30 so very quiet and peaceful. Attentive service, changed plates frequently, teapot always full. Good value for price paid...esp. we had a few dishes of seafood, they also have a special on for lobster at $20/lb for a two and half pound critter.

Pan seared vermicelli with beef, pickled cabbage, and bitter melon

Visited Toronto in April and couldn't get into Kirin on a Wednesday five minutes after they opened! So we ' went across the street and decided to try Parkhill. The restaurant was not busy, unlike Kirin. We were told it was tax season. They also offered 10% off on weekday mornings before 11am, and some special lunch items. Everything we ordered was very tasty and solid. We had the shrimp dumplings,, Siu Mai, beef rice rolls, egg tart, sausage and spare ribs on rice, bean tip leaves with dried scallops and enoki mushrooms, and pan seared vermicelli with beef and bitter melon and pickled cabbage. The vermicelli was our favorite, really delicious! We saw their special on king crab: $398 with purchase of two other dishes. I asked about the weight of the king crabs and was told they were about 7 pounds. That's cheaper than supermarket price! So we decided to go back for dinner. The three of us had a 7-pound king crab cooked two ways (steamed legs and claws with garlic, and deep fried body with salt and pepper); half a steamed boneless chicken with Virginia ham, shiitake mushrooms, and tender green 金華玉樹鷄; and a stir fried Ling cod fillet with Chinese broccoli. They were all really delicious and very good value. Although I still think that Kirin has better dim sum (we made a reservation and went back on a different day) and service, Parkhill is a good, solid alternative with really good value. Service was decent, they just didn't have a lot of bodies. I do recommend Parkhill for dim sum and for dinner.

I went to this restaurant for Dim Sum. The quality was good and I tried some dim sum I haven't tried before. This time I ordered the hand-sliced chicken meat salad. That was tasty. Their other dim sum taste delicious too.

Came here for dinner on a recent Vancouver trip and food was pretty good. We ordered the Alaska king crab set menu. The crab was done well - I don't usually enjoy eating seafood but the steamed crab claws had a great garlic flavor and the other crab dish we got was fried well and had great seasoning without having too much kick. The braised pork belly here was also really tasty, the meat just melts in your mouth. Service was alright, started off well with timely plate changes but tapered off once they got busier. Parking was relatively easy, with a large shared lot between London Drugs/Empire Seafood/Parkhill Seafood and some other businesses. IIRC, you do need to leave your license plate at the front for validation purposes. Price was fair for what you get.

Pretty good dim sum spot considering they are fairly new. We came for brunch on Monday and it wasn't too busy. We ordered a TON of food.... shui mai, har kaw, spareribs, chicken feet, baked pork buns, shrimp rice roll, beef rice roll, Chinese donut with shredded pork, egg yolk buns, turnip cake, chicken wing stuffed with glutinous rice, and e-fu noodle in abalone sauce. We definitely had a lot of leftovers haha I thought the dim sum all tasted good, one of my favorites was the Chinese donut with shredded pork since that tasted interesting. It was crunchy, a tad sweet but also salty. A fan of the combination of flavors! Clean place + good dim sum + decent service = will be back!

One of the best dim sum places I've been to in a while. The variety of dishes to choose from was worthy of applause, and the quality of the dishes was worthy of an encore. Everything came out hot and fresh. There were several unique dishes I hadn't had before including egg battered fried fish skins, tapioca pudding "pie," chicken feet broth stew (the broth being the part I hadn't had). The fried tofu was the best I've ever had of that dish. Superbly battered, and silky smooth on the inside. The ginger chicken was just straight fresh. If you read this before coming here, savor the quality. Because you shouldn't expect this level of quality from just any dim sum place.

Food and service is okay in this place. However, we shall not return again because we felt there is no integrity here... My partner saw the ad posted on the Mingpao newspaper yesterday that Early birds get 20% off on the dimsum if paid before between 9-11 am. This morning 10/16 Saturday we arrived at 10:33 am, ordered 5 dimsum and by 10:59 am, we tried to check out but the server said this discount thing is not valid due to the weekends been changed to 9-10 (no details ever disclosed in their ad...) Too bad we are disqualified for this early bird Siumai/squid game with Parkhill! The total bill comes to $48.14. Well, definitely not a pleasant experience especially for my gf, we paid and left. No plans to return. We eat out all the time, we won't complain at all if the charges are fair and square. Otherwise, we simply take our business somewhere else with integrity, period!

Came here last night for dinner upon a birthday invite. It's a set menu of which price I have no idea. The food was very good. This is my second time eating in this restaurant, the first bring dim sum, and should say, it's good. Not 5 stars yet ? I'd say not quite there yet. It lacks the delicate flavor and chef creativity to make more stars but dinner last night was not a disappointment at all. The beef rib is something new and worth a try.

Im not sure why people said their service was bad... this is our 2nd time here and I was original from HK but live in US for over 20 years. Their service is fast and just like in Hong Kong. Food was good and I tried 2 other dim sum places around this area and I really like them. First of all while I was checking in at the reception, there were 2 other families trying to cut in front of me. The receptionist was on it and still take care of us first. I sat down and was able to get my tea and my food order within 10 mins. I added a fried rice after and the server came back and follow up with me within 10 mins and make sure i got my order soon. I really dont see why people dont like their service... may be all customers were in a rush (that's what i see they want everything "now"). Come on.. relax and enjoy your sunday dim sum people!

So my family and I have been coming here on the weekly for dim sum. On our last visit, my sister found a needle-type object in her food. We could not figure out what the object was but only knew it would've been bad if it cut into her gums or was swallowed. We notified the manager and he examined the object but didn't offer any apologies or explanation as to why and how the object was in the food. It's not like it's something organic like hair or an insect, it was something sharp and potentially dangerous if swallowed. The manager simply said if there's any discomfort with her teeth/mouth, come back and let him know. He offered to write off the cheapest thing we ordered at lunch (sponge cake) and that was it. We were a little appalled and taken aback as the manager seemed unfazed. We can only assume that this happens often enough that he doesn't find it shocking anymore? In any case, sadly, we won't be coming back anytime soon.

This year's lunar new year, we decided to try Parkhil Seafood Restaurant's Chinese New Year menu. This ex-Teochew restaurant has rebranded and is now serving Cantonese dishes. Deluxe Dinner Set For Sour ($388): Shark's Fin Soup with Fresh Crab Meat (4 bowls) Braised Live Lobster with Soy Sauce and Onion Soy Bean Marinated Black Cod Fish - Baked Code Fish with Dijon Marinated Chicken - Chicken Marinated with Truffle Sauce (served cold) Braised Whole Dried Scallops - Dried Scallops served with Oyster Sauce on bed of cabbage, Shitake Mushroom and black moss (FaCai) Assorted Seafood Fried Rice - Prawn and Scallop Egg Fried Rice Daily Dessert - Osmanthus Jelly with Red Dates Overall, the food were either hit or miss. After not having shark fin for years, their Shark Fin soup for sure brought out good memories. The soup was thick, the shark fin and the fresh crab meat were very generous. This is probably the highlight of the night. The Lobster dish was also amazing. The lobster was fresh, and the seasoning was spot on. The fish in the cod dish was also fresh, but this dish reminds me of Japanese style black cod miso. Marinated Chicken dish was a surprised for me, as the dish was served cold, but it was a pleasant surprised as the black truffle taste was very strong and it worked well with cold chicken. +8 for this. On the other hand, the rest of the food were pretty bad. For the braised dried scallop, the scallop was springy and easily broken. They might overcooked the scallop. The shitake's stem was still pretty hard, so it might be undercooked. The fried rice was the worst, it only had small pieces of prawn and scallop, and was pretty bland. Lastly, the dessert had no flavor. -2 star for this. Finally, the service was not great. One of the lobster claw was uncooked. We made a complain, but they did not do anything nor apolagize about it. They took the lobster away and it never came back after telling us they will recook it. -3 stars for this.

There is free parking in the plaza ramp. I grew up eating dim sum and since I'm visiting from the states I expected this place to be better with the Chinese population here but I must say this place didn't impress me. We had spoiled shrimp inside one of our sui mai order. Food was more on the bland side. We went as a big group and was able to get a table right away without waiting.

You'll want to make a reservation WEEKS in advance and hope for the best! Our group ordered so many delicious items, and some standouts were: Shrimp Har Gao: These were crisp and tasty, with a skin that was the appropriate thickness - and of course had enough slip to it. Yum! Pork Shu Mai: These ingredients were tip top! I'm not a fan of pork, but I enjoyed this one... whatever they marinated it in was amazing. Stuffed Eggplant: Tasty, too! I love eggplant, especially the stuffed ones. The sauce paired very well and was simply satisfying. Mushroom Noodles: This was honestly a hot mess and hot miss. It tasted very bland like airplane food... highly recommend not ordering this! Cheung Fun - The rice noodle was crisp and very satisfying. Whether an oil stick or protein, highly recommend this one. What's nice is eating here was very relaxing late in the afternoon. The overall ambiance is spacious and quiet enough for conversation. Either we got lucky missing out on the liveliness, or all the aunties with tea left before we arrived. Overall, I could see myself coming back for the dim sum... but have a little more reservation (no pun intended) when trying their lunch items.

Further to my lunch experience a couple of months ago which wasn't too good, i decided to give…read moretheir breakfast another chance. I used to come here often with friends and families for breakfast and wanted to see whether it still tasted just as good. We each got two items from the breakfast combo, A through D. A to Cs are our usual options and upgrade to French toast. The eggs were somewhat on the drier side and i personally prefer fluffy ones. The beef noodles and the congee continue to be my favorites. The beef noodle broth is flavorful and the congee definitely comforted my soul. The items listed in D are always a miss. We have tried all items and none of them was delicious. For example, the steamed rice rolls were very doughy. Other times, they were very dry. The items in D sometimes felt like they're frozen dim sum items sold at grocery stores. Service is a hit or miss depending on which server you get. Sometimes you get servers who come and refill tea and provides actual service. Other times, no one comes by at all even when there is no tea in cups, etc.

The dessert at the end was a surprise. Expecting red bean soup but got a Chinese jello instead. Prawns were amazing too. Salted egg flavour and sweet and sour pork had wok hei! Service could be a bit slower but it's a Chinese restaurant. So i get it. Everything was gooood! Portions were generous and the taste on point. The washrooms could use a bit of cleaning as well as the flooring...so had to take away a star. Would go back for sure! Overall tho, good comfort Chinese food at reasonable prices. Cheers! Happy eating!

Made reservations for dinner at 5. We were the first ones there…read more I really wanted to have dim sum there. I heard all the great stuff about it, but unfortunately they don't serve dim sum for dinner. So they handed me an iPad to check out their dinner menu. Everything looked so good. My hubby ordered three items and white rice, I ordered one dish and white rice. They give us hot tea of our choice. I think our eyes were bigger than our tummies. We had so much food left. So we took it back to the hotel. Hopefully we will be allowed to bring on plane.. I love trying different Chinese places based on people's reviews, and one of my friends telling me that she liked this place. The dinner menu was difficult to decide what to get. Did I mention the food was sooo good!!!!

I read about Yue Restaurant being one of the most reliable and enjoyable dim sum spots in Richmond…read more(old school traditional style) but unfortunately, they do not serve Dim Sum in the evening. Nevertheless, we were glad we tried their dinner. When you tried to do research on the restaurant and could not find any menu or proper working link, you will realize this place emphasizes on words of mouth rather than Online Marketing. I did not find a single non-Chinese customers when we were there and this place was packed! The dining room is bright, clean, and spacious, and even when the restaurant is busy, the atmosphere feels lively rather than chaotic. The staff works hard to keep things moving, and service is friendly and efficient. The food is the real highlight. Everything arrives beautifully prepared, with generous portions and fresh ingredients. Their Wagyu beef cubes is a MUST-HAVE. Its the best Wagyu beef I have tasted! We also ordered their Peking Duck. It's not the best I have tried but definitely above average. This order comes in 2 dishes. You wrap the duck skin with thin crepe, and the 2nd dish is basically the diced duck meat wrapped in lettuce. We balanced the protein with Tofu/Broccoli/Mushroom dish. We also ordered Yangzhou fried rice. These dishes alone kept 5 hungry adults satisfied. We struggled to finish every scrap! Yue Restaurant is an excellent choice for groups, families, and anyone craving high‑quality Cantonese cuisine. With great variety, solid execution, and a comfortable dining space, it's easy to see why this place is so popular.

Service is fast and friendly; they accept cash, debit, WeChat or Alipay. Parking is free and plentiful in the morning (if you come later in the day, it'll likely be full due to the sharing of the plaza by several other restaurants).

We just returned from Italy, and the first thing we did upon arriving at YVR was head to this…read morerestaurant on Victoria Drive for a dim sum lunch. It had received many good reviews. We arrived on a Thursday afternoon around 1:30 pm, and it wasn't full after the lunch rush, I guessed. We were seated within minutes. Since my wife is Chinese and speaks the language fluently, I let her place the order. We picked, in order of serving: steamed rice flour rolls with beef, steamed prawn dumplings, steamed beef balls, and lastly, steamed rice with chicken and Chinese sausage. Overall, the food was good, but there is room for improvement. None of the three dishes were hot--though not piping hot, as we were aware it was near the end of the dim sum serving time slot. Everything was lukewarm, to say the least. Their prawn dumplings are renowned for their size, and indeed they are the size of a ping pong ball, but the wrapper came loose. This is often caused by the mixed ratio of prawn meat and pork, plus over-steaming. I lived in Hong Kong for almost eight years before we moved to Canada. I don't know if their dumplings were handmade on site or mass-produced in a Richmond factory. High-end dumplings have a minimum of ten folds, some up to thirteen along the edge. It's a skill as well as an art that can only be obtained through years of training and practice. However, the beef balls are kind of huge, with a hunk of old orange peel inside but no water chestnuts. They are almost the size of tennis balls. Sadly, the must-have Worcestershire sauce was minuscule--less than two teaspoonfuls. It's alright; we did not plan to eat everything on the table. The saving grace was probably the steamed rice with chicken and Chinese sausage. Yes, I would say it was piping hot, with a large portion of chicken meat but a very tiny portion of sausage. The two Chinese broccoli florets were cold, obviously not steamed together with the rice, and were put with the rice as a garnish. We ordered Po Lee tea, a black tea that is supposedly good for men as well as digestion. However, the other pot of hot water became lukewarm when we needed to add water to our tea. Many restaurants would either place the water pot on a tea light warmer or simply take the empty teapot to the kitchen and fill it with hot boiling water, like they do in Hong Kong. Overall, it was a decent dining experience, but perhaps we should have come earlier rather than near the end of the dim sum serving time. I would like to return for dinner one of these days for sure. Western Lake Restaurant is renowned for its food portions, and that's true. However, the top priority for improvement should be the food temperature. We saw that they suggest a 12% or more gratuity, but I left a fifty-dollar bill, which should be adequate. Overall, I would give this 4 stars out of 5.

Food: Yummy yum cha! Everything tastes fresh, and the portions are huge. Always hits the spot!…read more Service: Usually packed, so call ahead to make a reservation. Parking: No dedicated parking. Look for street parking nearby.
