Consistently good Dim Sum, dinner, and pick up too! Older folks love this place in East Vancouver plus there's a T&T, Bakery and several shops conveniently located in this strip mall. read more

Been coming here every Tuesday for the past month. It's pretty tasty. The service is usually pretty busy during mid day but tend to die down by 1pm~ish. Decor wise it's all pretty much the same idea as many Chinese restaurants. Congi is definitely one of my favourites on the menu. Along with the wings. read more

Been coming here for years now. Take out and dine in. Big groups or just for two. Make sure you call to book a table in advance. Pros: - Heaps of free street and parkade spots - Free dessert soup iykyk - Peking duck is well made, make sure to call to reserve because they do sell out - Service is attentive and prompt with switching out bowls/plates Notes: - Gets slippery in the hallway to the bathroom and not the cleanest/newest facility but I'm there for the food read more

Delicious food and nice people! The food is fresh and their recommendations are worth trying. I'll be back when I come to town.

I need to give a shout out to this restaurant, particularly the staff and the dishes. This is the go-to neighbourhood family restaurant for my family and extended family whether it is our bi-weekly dining out with our parents or special occasions taking up 2 tables of 10-12 (birthdays, visiting families, lunar new years, anniversaries, etc). I've here so many times so I don't have any particular dishes to name but we have not had a dish that disappointed us. They also happily adjust their condiments for my mother's low-sodium diet. The servers are EXTREMELY friendly and helpful. We went there for a small birthday dinner for my mother last week. As soon as we sat down, our waitress said to my mom, your brother-in-law, his wife, his brother (and wife) had dim sum there just the week before. How the heck was she able to remember who's who and how they are related for that matters! It was more than walking into a hotel / building where the doorman or concierge remembers your name. read more

Food, in general, is not seasoned well enough. Seafood is cooked to the perfect doneness but the abalone tasted like cat food. Salt and pepper prawns have been sublime both times I've had them here. read more

Dinner was delicious. I love the shrimp and crab claw. Large and moist. The jellyfish had nice flavour too. I usually do not enjoy the crispy skin chicken in most restaurants as they tend to overcooked it making the meat dry and uninteresting. Not this place, it was perfectly done! Steamed fish was well seasoned and was not overcooked. Our lobster was succulent. Pan friend yee mein and fried rice was yummy. We had a lot of dishes and rarely would a restaurant nailed all of them. These guys did! Will be back read more

Solid spot for dim sum in East Vancouver. Has a nostalgic feel to it. The food is pretty yummy and the portions are reasonable. You pick out the items you want on the sheet and they bring the items out steaming hot! My favorites are the scallop prawn dumplings, the siu mai and the beef rice rolls. read more

Fortune City Seafood Restaurant - Dim Sum Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

See all

Fortune City seafood is always a reliable Cantonese restaurant. We've been frequenting them for many years, whether it's for dim sum, lunch, dinner or delivery, they're always fast, fresh and reasonable. Some of our favourite dishes includes their salt and pepper pork chops, their sautee shrimp with egg, ginger green onion beef hot pot, house special steam chicken, house special chow mien and so much more. It's hard to avoid Chinese restaurants using MSG, and I think they do a good balance of it. While I have nothing against MSG, I find some restaurants over use it to hide the inferior quality of their ingredients. Not the case with fortune city seafood. Service is very typical of Chinese restaurants, you have to get a server's attention if you want anything, but they do make the effort to provide special touches. One time we ordered way too many dishes and our table was cramped, after requesting for a bigger table, they helped us shift all our cutlery and dishes over. They will also ask if you would like the curtains down in the evening when the sun can be in your eyes. They also started doing discounted dishes for take out during COVID. They are now $18/dish, and they're great when you don't want to make dinner but still have a family to feed. Or if you want to just add a few extra dishes to your meal. Overall a great place to go for Chinese food and we've been enjoying our experience so far! read more

Shumei is tasty, noodle wrap shrimp and beef is filling. Pork bao has a balance of flavor. Gotta try the sesame balls with black bean is crispy and has nice gooey center that is just perfect. A great dim sum place. Seems like all the Asian elders gathered here for their morning brunch, a nice touch seeing this. read more

Affordable dim sum, great for gatherings, and generous portions are highlights of this establishment. The dim sum and Chinese dishes are on point but average in taste and are more quantity than quality. read more

Great food, great value and fantastic service. We were just here this past weekend, and we loved our experience. The dim sum was delicious, and our favorite was the sesame balls. for a party of four, we spent under $100, and we were all full The next time we visit Vancouver, we will come here again. read more

Went for a lunch Dim Sum visit with friends and it was GREAT. There was a bit of a wait to get in, but the front was very organized. After we were seated, someone promptly brought tea and utensils. We placed our order and within minutes dishes started trickling in at a great pace. The food was tasty and presented well. The deep fried squid was some of the best squid I have ever had. At the end of the meal, we asked to each pay individually (party of 5) and the restaurant graciously accommodated. Definitely will return. read more

My family doesn't generally go to the same restaurant over and over again just simply cause we don't eat out a lot. Fortune City is one of the couple exceptions where my family is content to eat at. It's been pretty clear to me why this is the case. Fortune City constantly provides a great meal that delights us all. We recently went for the King Crab special and it definitely itself as my favourite Chinese restaurant. A couple things to note for dinner time. I would highly recommend calling and making a reservation for anytime you'd expect to come by. The night always seems to start out slow but the restaurant gets pretty packed by 7:00PM even on weekdays. Better to play it safe than take a chance. This is especially important because more often than not there will be some sort of event happening. I've seen birthday parties, wedding services, activist group meetups, you name it. Make sure to reserve. My family decided to have the 10 person King Crab special meal. It comes with two different styles of King Crab, fish maw soup, Peking duck, lettuce wraps, chicken, a serving of fish based on what's available, veggies, e-fu noodles with crab sauce, and crab fried rice. It is a lot of food. We went as a group of 6 and there was a lot of food left over to be had for another day. The main attraction was definitely amazing. We had two plates of steamed crab. It's really tasty with the added chopped garlic on top. There's also another dish of what I believe is baked crab. Both are a delight to have and use that special two pronged fork. The steamed is definitely great but I prefer the baked a bit more. There's just a little bit more specialness to have that crispness on the first bite. The other special dishes were all really good as well. It was definitely my favourite serving of Peking duck. Every piece of duck is cut well to have some skin and some meat. Fantastic flavours after wrapping the duck with the rice flour wrap and I'm always eager to have more. The chicken and lettuce wraps are both solid dishes. Big giant portions really drive home that we're having a special meal. I also really love how they make their fish maw soup. There's the fish maw itself but I could also see that they added in some basa fish slices and scallops to vary things up. The final two special attractions were the e-fu noodles in crab sauce and crab fried rice. I love e-fu noodles and it's even better when there's the crab sauce from earlier involved. There's some bean sprouts as well but it tastes amazing just to have all the juices from the crab involved. The fried rice as well is huge and with tons of filling before getting to the crab part. Lots of chunks of crab throughout. We were definitely happy with our service throughout. I think all the servers in the restaurant helped out at one point or another. Very attentive in providing clean plates and napkins for our party. Also very good about swapping out the giant sized dishes for smaller ones. Can't complain too much about the service. Overall, we had a great experience and I feel it's reflective of the effort the restaurant puts into all of its food. It's my favourite Chinese restaurant and my top recommendation when asked. It was a really expensive dinner but there were no complaints at all from my family. I can already say for certain we'll probably be back in the next calendar year to have that meal again if not sooner. read more

Last time I will never step in this restaurant again. prices have gone up and they will walk back to your table and ask for more tip. No wonder restaurant not busy on a Sunday afternoon. At 1230pm. Please go to another restaurant. read more

Typical dim sum place with a variety of dishes on their menu. Quite crowded on weekends so it's best to make reservations. Prices have increased and for a party of 7 people with two kids included our bill came up to $135. Service is great and food is good. Ample parking underground. read more

If I could rate this place 0 stars I would, but unfortunately I can't. I genuinely created a yelp account just to rate this 1 star because the service was so ass. The food tastes average, sometimes bland, but I've found hair in my soups a few times. As for the service, specifically some servers, disgust me and let me tell you why. In the times where our bill was about 300 dollars, the servers were all smiles and kept initiating small talk. Other days like TODAY when my father visited with his mother and the bill was less than 100 dollars, they received so much attitude and were challenged for asking for the smallest things like takeout boxes or moving to an area that was less loud (as the conversation of the table next to them was obnoxiously loud and had the word "fuck" showing up every sentence) Over all, some of these servers, are obviously not suitable for a job in the service industry, especially a blonde Asian woman with short hair, named TINA who I think is the boss--which disgusts me knowing such a low level person runs that place. She was one of those very servers/workers that were all smiles and small talk when the bill was large. This wasn't even the first time this has happened. Clearly, people like her only treat customers well when they have something to benefit from. Even if they had a "bad day" the disrespect was unnecessary. It's safe to say this is the last time we'll be visiting them. There's another Chinese restaurant right under them that has better service and no damn hair in your food, so I recommend checking THAT place out read more

I don't know if we came here on an off day last time and an ON day this time. The last time we came here it was really meh so I was pretty sad when my relatives wanted to eat here during our recent vacation to Vancouver. But what a pleasant surprise! Everything was really good this time. The congee, the super fresh Youtiao, the huge Siu Mai and Har Gows, the silky skin on the steamed rolls.... I've been a dim sum lover all my life and have made it a point to try the dim sum in every city I visit with a big Chinese population. I don't know if it was just my lucky day but on Dec 28th 2018 the food here was AMAZEBALLS read more

Came here for dimsum and it was pretty good actually. I personally love the sponge cake that we ordered wrongly mistakenly for the egg tart. The liu sha bao is not that strong and mostly contain of condensed milk so the worst one so far for liu sha bao across vancouver. The rest they are good enough for you to come for dim sum. There is early bird dim sum during weekdays for 20% come before order 11am to get this deal. Cheers! read more

Overall the food quality is below average. Steam jumbo clam has minimal flavour. Peking duck skin was chewy instead of crispy. Second course of Peking duck, lettuce wrap, the duck meat was burnt. Crab with ginger and scallion with e-fu noodle has minimal flavour. Also the decor was dated, you can tell this restaurant has been opened for decades. However the service was really nice. read more

Finally visited this famous high-end seafood dimsum restaurant. I think this dimsum place has one if the best serviced dimsum restaurant in Vancouver. Servers were really attentive and promptly fulfilled our requests. Most of the food were the best. The har gow and shumai were the best. However, i was little dissatisfied with the eggplant and shrimp toast. Overall, it was a great experience. read more

Fortune City is one of those places where I go with my family, and my parents will order everything that they know is the best. Well today, we came in at 10am without them! It was a holiday, and the restaurant line up has already started! My favourite dish today was the braised beef tendon with fried rice noodles. The beef tendon was tender and the dish itself wasn't too salty. The Siu Mai (steamed pork dumpling) dish was pretty big, if this is the only Chinese dim sum dish you like, fill up on this one The Deep Fried Chinese Donut wrapped with Rice Wrap (Zha Liang) is usually okay but today, it was a fail. The donut was made with too much baking powder or baking soda that made the donut give off a strong smell We also ordered Baked Bbq Pork Buns with the crusted top - pretty fresh and the amount of meat to bun was a good ratio The Egg Tarts were cooked well but it was cold. The Mango Pudding had bits of fresh mango and it was smooth, but the presentation of it was really off 'pudding' Overall, I will only come back with the parents. read more

Good solid dim sum in this Vancouver East side Chinese Restaurant. This location had seen several changes in management and name, the latest incarnation had been in business for a few years, and has always been busy and popular in the neighbourhood, for me coming here is for another reason; they have covered parking, which is great for my doggie, coming here early in the morning, the parking area is not busy and also its cool so its perfect for her!! I have been trying to find restaurants that has covered parking for that reason. The place opens at 9:00am and we had been here on several occasions and it actually makes more sense to come at around 9:45am instead, as most of the kitchen items will not be available till after 10:00am, and even if you order the steamed items such as Sui Mai, Har Gau, Rice Rolls, they will take at least 20mins. to be ready, so I made a point to come after 9:30. Food portion here is large, most items are larger then the portions you will find in Richmond, I also love the fact that after 10:00am they have several kitchen items that are on special; such as BBQ Duck with Rice Noodles in Soup, Beef Brisket Noodles, Chicken and Mushroom Noodles, all these items are not small, so they can also be shared. For an authentic dim sum restaurant this place has it all, the crowd, the line-ups, the conversations in Cantonese village dialects, the pushy old ladies and men that will not watch where they are going etc. But I guess this is how a Dim Sum place is supposed to be! read more

Its a hit and miss at this place. The waiters and waitress are friendly. It is a family ran business with a few hired staff. Their best dish is the BBQ duck. Very juicy and tasty. Its also a good spot to have a family dinner. But don't expect you can finish dining within an hour with a party of 5. If you dine on weekdays, they have specials. like you can order 2 course peaking duck for $35 (this used to be $29) read more

Although I don't come here often, it is one of the better Chinese restaurants in East Van/North Burnaby. The Dim Sum is decent and the dinner-let me tell you about the dinner! My family came here and we had one of the dinner for 10 and there was so much food left over! Usually I'm a big eater, and it worked out to about $15 per head, but the portion sizing was generous and it was decent! I would come back. read more

Came here to try some dim sum. Parking is available all over this mall. There seem to be more spots on the lower level, so you may want to try that area first. The inside has that worn down feel, but this place gets a ton of traffic, so this is expected. Most of the dim sum is up to snuff. Won't go into detail here but 2 items stuck out: Shrimp dumplings - these are some of the largest ones I've had in a while. Tasted fresh. Special mention. Xiao long bao - decent taste, but skins are way too thick. The dim sum isn't the cheapest at $3.xx a basket. Something to keep in mind. Overall, this place gets my approval. Just be prepared to spend a few bucks more. read more

Wow I was wondering why the royal treatment for dinner tonight. We got the king crab and Peking duck combo and the food was good from the soup to the tapioca pudding ! But almost $700? Plus tip? Guess my Chinese wasn't so good afterall when I thought it was $158. And we got a big crab to boot! Bigger than the other two tables. So considering what we got it was an ok deal but the good service made up for the cost which I decided to pay for dinner because I felt bad for my family who offered to treat. It's still a family favourite place for Chinese dinners for our family and we used to come more often when our father was around. Standard Chinese Cantonese style food. Great for family style and good seafood options. read more

I've heard a lot of good things about this restaurant. My friend told me it was really good, my boss/chef told me it was really good. Well it was really Bad! I came here on a Friday after work around 10:30am. The place was pretty packed and it's a fairly big place. I was by myself so they fixed a table for me in the back pretty quickly (that's the one star right there) I ordered the har gow- very thick skin, the scallop dumpling- smelled funny, the steamed prawn puree with fish maw-found a shell in it, the fried sticky rice-found a bone or something in it, the curry cuttlefish-found the beak in it, and the daikon cakes with xo sauce- it was ok. So I would say one out of six dishes is a big fail. Service wasn't that good either, yes they were busy but that doesn't justify it. Also it took forever for them to give me my change back, I actually thought they jacked it. My bill was $38 and I gave them $60 so I could get change for the tip and it took forever for them to give me my change back. Lucky they sat me in the back where all the linen and takeout boxes etc. were cuz when I was done I just grabbed my own takeout boxes and packed my own stuff to go. If not I probably would have waited forever for someone to get it for me. You won't be seeing me back in this place............ read more

Decent dim sum joint and pretty good for dinner as well. Arguably one of the better places in the city for Peking duck. Things to try: any of the claypot tofu dishes, gigantic siu mai, duck with the cabbage wraps, claypot rice dishes during dim sum time. Pricing is super reasonable and they even give 20% off on weekdays for dim sum. Service is surly but efficient. Lines can be long especially on weekends, try to make reservations for dinner or dim sum but usually if you get there before 11 the wait isn't too long. Lots of parking in the free parkade below but can be a bit trying at times. Highly recommend. Bonus tip: food can be a bit salty for some tastes, advise your server if you would like them to make things less salty read more
