Not only that, their dim sum is reasonable, and large, and best of all - tender. You can always tell if a restaurant that is claming "dim sum" is just re-heating their sui mai. It's tough and bland. NOT so here. It's soft, generously portioned with black mushroom and pork and shrimp. We usually go for dim sum, but their wide range of menu items will suit a large crowd that's fussy (vegan, pescatarian or gluten free). TBH It's not the fanciest place, but the takeaway from visiting here is it's definitely one of the tastiest locally.

It was actually busy. We ordered the special with 4 dishes and crab for $128. Good deal because you get soup, bucket of rice and dessert.

We ordered crispy chicken, beef and gai lan, deep fried squid, pork chops in sweet and sour sauce. We also ordered squab too and it was surprisingly really good. Not dry at all and quite tasty. Honestly there wasn't a bad dish. We will definitely be back.

The food itself was fine and the good value, but the service was atrocious. Our server tried to upsell us on market price seafood more than once, and after we refused a couple of times, she started to become condescending. She made blunt comments about how "unknowledgeable" we were about certain dishes we wanted to try. She was mean and snappy to other staff by needlessly barking out orders. Once we tried helping move some dishes around on the Lazy Susan to help make room for incoming dishes, and she basically yelled at me to say that I wasn't helping. I don't really put up with this type of genuine rudeness anymore. There's too many good alternative restaurants that make you feel welcomed, that I have no desire to come return to this one.

I made a reservation just in case, but to my surprise, it wasn't too busy. The restaurant isn't fancy, but for me, it's all about the taste. When I arrived, I spoke with the chef (I presumed) and asked for recommendations. He suggested a few of their most popular dishes. I especially loved the oyster pancake, blanched squid, and the taro dish with sweet-and-sour sauce. The service was very friendly too, which made the dinner more enjoyable. If you never try Chiu Chow cuisine before, I definitely recommend checking this place out!

Ever since my mom passed two years ago, I've been on the hunt for dishes that remind me of my…read morechildhood. I recall frequenting a number of Chiu Chow restaurants as a child, salivating over large platters of marinated meats, indulging in delectable stir fries, and overeating the delicious fried taro dessert ubiquitous with the cuisine. For those who don't know, the Teochew or Chiu Chow people are a sub-ethnic group within the majority Han Chinese population, with their own distinct dialect and culture. The Lower Mainland used to have an abundance of restaurants specializing in this regional cuisine, including Park Lane and Tong Kung in Richmond, but all have closed shop over the last few years. I've been searching for something to fill that gap and I think Chuan Yue fits the bill. This unassuming hole in the wall covers most of the classics. Between the two of us, we tried the marinated goose, satay beef and gai lan pan fried noodles, oyster omelet, and oyster and minced pork soup rice. I'd say the goose isn't necessarily a must order - there's a lot more skin and bone than I'm used to and I'd probably go for the duck instead once they have that in stock. The oyster omelet was phenomenal though. With its crispy edges, chewy crust and an abundance of oysters, this dish was a real winner. We also really enjoyed the oyster rice soup dish. The broth was light and comforting, and the cilantro and marinated olive leaves throughout added a savoury touch. We were both stuffed to the brim and opted for no dessert, but lamented our decision as we saw their fried taro dessert headed for another table. The waitress was came back from the kitchen with a few pieces for us to try, knowing we wouldn't have room for a full order. We'll definitely be back for this as the sugar coating was perfectly crunchy and the taro expertly cooked. We spoke with the owner about how rare it is to find authentic Chiu Chow food in Vancouver anymore, and he was incredibly kind, telling us we could pop in anytime or request specific dishes if we so desired. He even gave me his business card, pointing out that he's the vice president of the Vancouver Teochew Association so he doesn't serve anything inauthentic. All in all, despite their dated interior, Chuan Yue is a great option for traditional Chiu Chow style dishes. I can't speak for their other offerings but I do think they're worth a visit if you're looking for something new.
