    The eggplant dish is always popular
    Mari E.

    I tried Sganghai noodle combo. I don't know what is the real name but it worked. I came after work around 3:50pm and it was best time that all dishes looked freshly cooked and don't look "sad". It's nice you have lots of choices. Like usual, I ordered braised eggplant with tofu. The purple colour looked so bright and it could tell they just made it. The noodle was so delicious. Very comforting food in cold day.

    KK has been closed for 3-4 weeks in summer and it didn't open until June 7th. I used to get lunch to share for 4 people and my family always enjoyed their food. After reopening KK has downsized their selection so there were rice, meats, veggies, some noodles and NO seafood. I was SO disappointed that KK did not sell seafood as they did in the past. Things have changed a bit after reno in June. Food was very bland the first time I went. Then few months later, my dad said KK is better now and the food isn't so bland like last time. Portion was still gigantic as before. They have almost everything except the seafood. I REPEAT KK no longer sells any seafood (including prawns) on the menu. However they still have Pork Chop on Rice and Dongpo Rou (Braised Pork Belly) on the menu. I prefer giving 4 stars for the value and the taste, but 3 stars since there is NO seafood on the menu. Please bring back seafood I beg you!

    Giant new but old school takeout place. Large Food combos for under $10 at the time of writing. Oh Hello. Parking is available in the nice large strip mall lot. There is also a small 2 storey lot next to the London Drugs. There used to be seating here, but those have been removed because of the pandemic. The place is basically one large glorified food court booth. The selection is amazing. They must've had some 35 different items. I felt like a kid in a candy store. Exciting. The pricing here is amazingly cheap. Cheaper than most food courts in fact. Beautiful. This place also sells BBQ stuff like pigs and ducks. Pricing looks similar to other places. Guess I'll give them a try next time. Not sure about the previous complaints about the staff not wearing masks, but all of them were wearing them when I visited. Gloves too. The only downside to the entire place is that they close rather early (1830 as of the time of writing). The 2 item combo I ordered was packed into a rectangular plastic container. They stuffed it so full that the lady had trouble closing it. I just watched and tried not to weep. For a few cents more, the rice or regular noodle can be replaced with beef rice noodle. I will definitely be back. Many times.

    2 item on steam rice combo -- fish and veg and a pork item. Delicious. $8.60 FTW.

    My coworker recommended this place to me previously. He extolled its virtue as being cheap with generous serving and is a quick lunch fix. He had also shared some food with us and it was tasty. I always hesitated to go there as the parking situation looked daunting. Always crowded. Well, now that we are still in a pandemic, the reduced traffic makes it a bit easier to deal with the parking. It is still busy but maybe not as bad as pre covid days. Safety protocols are taken seriously here. There is a staff by the entrance to monitor the number of people allowed inside. There was a line when I was there but it moved pretty fast. There were plenty of dishes to choose from and it could be overwhelming. You could get a basic 2 item combo for under $10 and the box would be filled to the brim. Roast meat is also available. This is definitely great for those looking for deals and to save on food cost. Just do not expect gourmet food. I got 2 meals out of my combo.

    Been to the Kent's Kitchen on Keefer previously and as I was in the Victoria and 41st area, stopped by this Kent's Kitchen location. What I like is that this location is cleaner with more natural light than the Keefer location. I was surprised that they are still cash only given that we are in the middle of COVID. Ordered the spicy fried fish and sweet & sour pork on chow mein. At $8.50 ($1 more for the fish) plus tax, it fed two of us for lunch...we were both full. Service was quick and I enjoyed the food. It was a positive food experience and happy to recommend Kent's Kitchen.

    Noodles plus two toppings: orange pepper chicken, and salt and pepper pork chop

    Noodles not greasy, chewy Pork chop a bit spicy but not too much Chicken with orange pepper

    My parents doctor is on Victoria Drive and so when they are in the hood, they would come and pick up some fast food take out. Food here has gotten smaller and more expensive. Quality has ran down hill a bit. This Kent's Kitchen is located inside a super busy mall that makes it super hard to get parking so you would need to park far. In the mall there are a few busy stores and this is one of them. Ok food quality. Not a WOW for sure.

    I ordered Yang Chow Fried Rice and I got cut up wieners. It had no BBQ pork or Shrimp in this dish. I dont know if it's cause I'm a non Asian ordering the food but was serving to my Chinese family. This was upsetting

    Kent's kitchen with the wife. Reviewing after we eat

    Having been in numerous Chinese restaurants I can safely say that Kent's kitchen is one of a kind (In a good way!). You are first greeted by someone at the door who will open it for you ( He is homeless and seeks money). When you enter you see tons of different dishes such as Duck, fried rice, broccoli and beef, Chinese vegetables, Fried shrimp, roasted pig,noodles, etc. There's so much variety in this restaurant that you might get overwhelmed by the smell and dishes all around you. Some dishes I will recommend are: Roasted pig,duck,fried rice,broccoli and beef, Mixed vegetables, Chinese noodles. When you take out the price of a small cup is $3.99 and large cup is $4.99. Most of their writing that describes the food are not in English so it's best to ask the price of something in the menu if you are not getting a dish in the cup. This is a must restaurant if you like Chinese food but want the comfort to eat it at home.

    This is just ridiculous beyond words. Open kitchen, many people are not wearing masks, the only thing between food and customer is the sneeze guard. Yuck! Also, please learn how to cook just slightly healthier food. Every dish you have is drenched in oil.

    Best authentic food we have ever tasted! Very helpful…read moreservers creating an unforgettable experience! Don't expect a traditional North American sit down romantic dining room experience. The restaurant is very busy and face paced! Food comes out quickly, but no pressure to eat and leave. Staff are genuine and want you to enjoy the authentic food and experience! Pheona was helpful and made it even more fun! It exceeded our expectations! We would definitely eat here again when we are in Vancouver!

    How did I not know about Chinatown BBQ until now?!…read more I've found my new holy grail because this is hands-down the best BBQ duck and BBQ pork I have ever had! We started with a plate of the BBQ Duck, and it was absolute perfection--packed with so much lean, incredibly flavorful meat. Then we ordered the Signature Four Treasures Chef's Plate on Steamed Rice. Talk about a masterpiece! It comes with BBQ Pork, Soy Sauce Chicken, Roasted Pork, and half a Salty Duck Egg. Honestly, every single element was so delicious that I genuinely couldn't pick a favorite. To top off an already amazing meal, their black lychee tea was out of this world. I loved it so much I actually asked if I could buy some to take home! They don't retail it, but the staff was so sweet and told me, "You can drink as much as you like here." Challenge absolutely accepted! The staff kept it perfectly topped up the entire time. Excellent food, wonderful service, and all the cozy, classic vibes. More cha cha cha please! I will definitely be back.

    All I can say is that everything at this restaurant was on point…read more Unfortunately, there was horrible traffic (due to the Marathon closures), and we were 1/2 hour late! But the wonderful hostess accommodated us, and I am so glad that she did! I cannot remember everything that we ate, but I know we got pork belly, dumplings, and duck rice cakes. OMG - everything was perfectly and authentically prepared! The wait staff was wonderful and so helpful with ordering and suggestions for eating. What a wonderful experience! We cannot wait to go back to Vancouver and eat at Bao Bei AGAIN!!

    I would rate the 2.5 stars out of 5. We had a reservation…read morefor 6pm , soon after we arrived the restaurant packed up quickly. Almost all the tables were full. They have a selection of snacks and small plates.tapas style and meant for sharing. We ordered a couple of item, they came one by one about 10 minutes apart. The dishes would have tasted so much better if they had came all together. The kitchen couldn't keep up with all the orders. We sat right front of the kitchen where you can see through. The dishes were coming out very slowly. Mautou The short ribs were overcooked and kinda tough to chew. The daikon radish on it was delicious. The plate was sitting for a while so it was not very hot when we got it Dumpling Steamed prawn and scallop dumpling. It was nice and hot. Filling was very good. The wrapper was horrible, it tastes like the cheap super market kind. Sablefish Delicious. Very soft . Didn't feel very Asian . More French style Pea shots Highly recommend by the server. The vegetables was very old and half of it was tough to chew. The tips were edible. It was also sitting for a while before we received it. It was not hot. Barely warm Not very impressed with this place. It's probably the most expensive and worst tasting Chinese food we had. Was not satisfied

    Came here for a Chinese wedding reception and the whole place was reserved for us…read more The food was a set menu and everything on it was yummy and well prepared. I like the way they portioned it and served each of us. They did not skimp out on the ingredients, such as if they say whole abalone, it really is. They definitely served the best seafood. The dessert also was amazing with the brown sugar cake and tapioca pudding. The only reason 1 star was missing was that parking was not that easy and service was mostly good. At times, some staff were not was attentive such as: they took the chopsticks away, but you still needed them. Still, Kirin is solid for it's dim sum and seafood!

    以高級餐廳來說食物品質已經不太行了。不過最讓人失望的是服務態度非常差。當天用餐人不多,但上菜速度卻非常慢,點了四道菜,結果兩道菜先上了,後面兩道等了45分鐘都沒上,想加點白飯和要水也等了很久才有人處理…read more整個過程都感覺被怠慢。 不知道是不是因為我們沒有點高價海鮮或其他高單價餐點,服務人員的態度顯得相當冷淡,讓人用餐體驗大打折扣。以這樣的價位來說,這樣的服務品質實在無法接受。整體感受非常差,不會再訪,也不推薦。 As a high end restaurant, the food quality was below average. However, what truly disappointed me was the poor service. Even though the restaurant was not busy, the dishes were served very slowly. The first 2 dishes came out fast, but the later 2 dishes came out after 45 min. When we asked for additional rice and water, we had to wait an unusually long time. Throughout the meal, we felt neglected. It was hard not to feel that the level of service was noticeably indifferent, possibly because we did not order any high-priced seafood or premium dishes. For a restaurant at this price point, the service was simply unacceptable. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience. I would not return and would not recommend it.
