    The food was comparable to Ho Yuen Kee and Congee Noodle House. I liked the complimentary pork bone soup, duck fried rice, salted fish tofu casserole and red bean soup. Saturday night no reso we were very lucky to get a table, this place was busy! The service was pretty good and food came out fast. The peking duck wrap was not okay but not as good as I hoped for. They have take out section for bbq meats but the parking is so busy there, not sure I would go back soon. They also don't take credit cards. Debit and cash only. I was so hungry I only took a few pictures. It was the beef, halibut and duck. All was delicious!

    Cantonese BBQ shop and restaurant beside the Supermarket 2000 in Union Square, Richmond. BBQ meat counter at the entrance, and a dine-in area to the left. Has maybe 10 tables of various size, not that big. No frills decor, no attempts to look modern or fancy. Pretty busy on a weekend night for takeout BBQ meats, and the dine-in was mostly filled too. Not surprisingly, all the staff spoke Cantonese. Dine-in menu has their BBQ meats, and also a decent number of stir fry and seafood options. Got their 3 person combo which includes a plate of 2 BBQ meats, soup of the day, and two other dishes of choice plus 3 bowls of white rice. We also got their signature fried noodle which is not on any of their menus, but you can ask the server for fried rice and noodle options. We got crispy pork and roast duck for the BBQ, and they were pretty good. Crispy pork skin was crispy and the saltiness was at a good level. The other dishes had pretty good portions. Gai lan beef had plenty of beef. The halibut clay pot had more fillers like pork and napa, but the flavor was good. The fried noodles came with chicken, char shiu pork, and various seafood pieces. Price was $124 before tips, and we had plenty of leftovers.

    Cantonese BBQ Restaurant is one of my family's favorites. They have a few large tables so it's good for larger groups as long as you reserve in advance. I'm not sure if everything on the menu is good but the BBQ has been decent on my visits. Service: it's been good each time that I've been there. Parking: there's a moderately sized, shared lot (free) During normal meal hours, the lot is usually pretty full and busy.

    Was craving for Lobster Rice and heard they serve this. As it is conveniently located in Richmond, we decided to give it a try. Restaurant looks like every Chinese resto - no sophisticated interior but it caters practically to the organized chaos inside - BBQ meats by the door readily available for take outs. No reservations necessary although we made one a week ago, we walked in and they didn't bother to check. Server recommended the small size (2 lbs lobster) lobster rice for 4 of us. There was another special - Ling Cod cooked two ways. She suggested the head made into a soup while the fillet sautéed with celery. We ordered a A-Choy veggie sautéed in fermented bean curd. Lobster Rice is tasty although lobster is coated with too much cornstarch. Rice is pure glutinous rice so it is heavy, not quite the fried rice feel. Fish Head Soup is tasty but Fish Fillet sautéed with veggies was a bit bland,. I like the A-Choy but then again, sauce is thickened with lots of cornstarch.

    Pretty decent hk bbq with not much of a wait on Capstan Way. Got BBQ pork and goose for my rice combo and was so surprised that it came with soup for both me and my friend. It came with a big pot of soup for the entire table and the portion was massive. Most of the workers are chinese and most of the customers are also chinese but they do have an english menu and the workers are pretty nice when I went. You can also order extra bbq to go in a box they'll chop it all up for you

    THE BIG: Located in Richmond. This is an unassuming Cantonese joint that only has cantonese speaking people inside eating. It has terrible reviews on google but that makes it even better. Tons of parking available in the parking lot and it can get packed. THE BLACK AND WHITE: Took my parents here when we were visiting Vancouver and it was so good, we went twice! My mom especially loved their Cantonese poached chicken. It was cold but the texture of the skin was amazing! We also got the bbq duck, a couple of vegetable dishes like gailan to round out the meal. Before the meal, we got soup and after the meal we got more soup but sweet! It varies depending on what the kitchen wants to send. The first time we got red bean vs the second we got mung bean. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall the damage done was around 120 CAD for three to four dishes. Definitely recommend this place for authentic cantonese dining.

    This BBQ joint is going to be a favourite from now on whenever I'm in Richmond. Despite their odd layout of the entrance and kitchen. Their food is very good. I love how their soups aren't made with fillers or too much msg. We particular love the roast chicken.

    Authentic Cantonese food. Canto parents approved. My parents are super hard to please and they really liked this place. Not just the price but the quality of food and the additional items that they brought precursor soup and a not too sweet after meal dessert. The space is tight but the servers are accommodating even breaking out more tables and chairs for some of the larger parties. 20 minutes was the longest time it took to get seated, that's pretty fast for prime dinner times. I never knew that how you prepare chicken could be so different. We ordered the combination bbq items and a hot stone pork bowl, cold boiled chicken with scallion ginger sauce. The cold boiled chicken was so good. The skin was slick and so yummy. In fact everything was delicious. From start to end. It was so good that my parents wanted to come back. Everything was great even the second time! The cha siu was legit, the roast duck was the perfect amount of crispy. If I come back to Vancouver I'd definitely be back here again.

    This small Cantonese BBQ spot is incredible! I came with my husband and in laws (who are very critical about food) and they absolutely loved it. They give everyone a soup to start out and a lentil soup for dessert. We ordered a cold chicken, bbq port, chinese broccoli, and a chicken clay pot. Each dish was huge and had great flavor all around. Service is quick to get the job done. It was $137 for everything, which is a steal! Highly recommend avoiding lunch and dinner rush hours!

    The roast pork and BBQ pork were melt-in- your-mouth tender. Sooo good. They offer sit-down and takeout service.

    Came here cause someone told my mom the bbq duck noodle here was good. Overall very disappointed with my experience here. Service was abysmal/ nonexistent... well.. at least the waitress with a ponytail (March 29th 4:45pm) was absolutely horrible. We asked her if they have a certain item and she'd respond with "of course we have it. Just look at the menu" in Cantonese. We wouldn't have asked if we saw it on the menu. Asked her if it's possible to get milk tea less sweet & less ice. And she'd respond with "everything is premade". Pretty much (take it or leave it) attitude. After she vacuums the carpet in front of us while we're eating with gloves on. She uses those very same gloves to give me an unwrapped plastic straw. I'm so thankful I always carry my own metal straw. Overall, the duck's not bad. At least the back portion was good and the skin was pretty crispy. But I hated the soggy noodles with subpar soup. Plum sauce was also the cheap kind you get in a glass jar. And the milk tea was probably the worst milk tea I've ever had in my life. And I've been drinking milk teas for over 15 years now. $5 for an extremely sweet and burnt pre made tea. Waited for the ice to melt in the tea for over 3 hours, and it was still rubbish. It makes sense why close to nobody eats in at the restaurant and just buy the bbq meat to go. Overall, $20 for the bbq duck soup and terrible milk tea. I stilled tipped the obligatory 10%. Probably could have done without, but it also felt beneath me. And at least the duck itself was decent. I honestly try not to give 1 stars to anybody since Covid (I'd rather not write the review at all), but this experience was just too terrible to not write about.

    Peking Duck in menu

    We saw the picture of Pecking Duck and thought it would be enough for 5 of us. It's only skin and very little duck meat were served! Don't be fooled by the picture like us! Totally disappointed. The waitress knocked off my tea twice, I had to clean up the mess myself using all napkins available the first round. It was nice of them that on second time, the waitress offered 2 new napkins so I don't have to use my own clothes to dry my dining area!!! Best thing is, they go after us for the tip! I normally paid by card and leave cash for tip. This is the first time I was after for not leaving tip in card! Totally uncomfortable. Food might be good but service sucks!

    Bbq meats in the window, apologies for the glare.

    I had the chicken with Ginger and rice. So good! It reminded me of what I had in Singapore, except this was better. The chicken was perfectly tender. My uncle stuck with his tried and true sweet and sour pork with pineapple. He said it's better than what he gets at home. My aunt however had the best meal! Curry Chicken. This was by far our favorite dish! The waitress was direct but they were all busy the entire time we were there. She wasn't chatty, but on the way out when I thanked one for our meal they all they were all brightened up and were so friendly, inviting us back anytime. If I lived in town I'd be here once a week for that curried chicken and vegetables. Hot tea and hot soup came with our meals. It felt like what my husband would make us at home. Pork and something like cabbage, that I've never had before. Clean restaurant with prompt service. I'll be dreaming of the curry chicken for the rest of my life, and it's definitely what I'll order next time.

    If you are here for a quick meal, don't forget to order the BBQ items over rice. I particularly like the steamed sticky rice with lobster.

    Wow, this place is a GEM, I am so in love with the Rolls, I visited 2 days in a row, had to get…read moresome more rolls in before we leave BC, which was so sad! Hei Hei Rice Roll is legit good, totally recommend, even my daughter too, I thought of her ( since she LOVES rice roll and couldn't make it on this trip with me) while enjoying these roll but when I shared with her the photos and mention that we will go back here with her- she already visited. She said it was so good! Hei Hei Rice Roll is located at the Richmond Public Market, oh wow - this place is really popular, on the 2nd visit I was the first in line then the line wasn't so long but while waiting for our order, the line got super long. I was lucky I didn't wait long in line. Best to arrive early. I am not sure what the secret to the rice roll but Wow, it's so thin, silky, smooth texture with the toppings, so great together. The last 2 times we had rice roll with my daughter at Portland and Seattle- followed per Instagram reels- those did not even compare to these rolls. My first visit I got the combo which is the best deals, starts at $15.50 but depends on what you select for the selection for rice rolls and congee. I got the pork & preserved egg congee, shrimp, mushroom, pork rice roll. The 2nd visit I got the combo again, with liver & preserved egg congee, scallop and shrimp rice rolls, but I got my order wrong for the roll- they missed the shrimp. fyi-I found out that bean sprout, corn, toppings are free! Both combo came out to $17. super cheap! Cash only, they take USD but its the same dollar $ value. I wish they take credit cards, hehe. & the Verdict: Yummy, the congee hits the spot for comfort food, loved how it is cooked and they add peanuts too. Love the packet of sauce for the rice rolls, the umami-ness, so good. Best to eat it hot and fresh! Don't forget to ask for chili sauce, to add that extra spicy kick! For now, I am not sure I'll ever find a spot that is closest to Hei Hei for my congee and rice roll fix until I get to visit Richmond, BC again.

Yes the rice rolls where fresh and silky smooth like some bottoms but is it any better than what you get at a dim sum restaurant. I'm just not completely sold.

No wait to be seated on a weekday at 11AM. Decently close to the trolley station as well so it's walkable if you're rolling on public transit.

We booked a reservation for 12:45pm, but because of the overwhelming weekend rush, we were not sat until 1:30pm. I understand that the restaurant was quite busy, but it certainly made the experience a little less enjoyable. There were also lots of people waiting in the area and the hostess found it hard to identify which groups were waiting and which had already checked in. I'm not sure if I'd return as there are so many other great dimsum places in Richmond that may not cost as much of a wait.
