    Wuntun noodle
    Edward T.

    Good is top quality . Service is prompt and courteous . Portions are way too small . You guys won't survive much long term in uber competitive Asian restaurant market Richmond with these portions . Your reputation will carry you only so far . $12-$16 for rice size bowl of Wuntun noodles and beef ain't cutting it .this place is cash only . Lots of parking out front

    Authentic Hong Kong Taste in Richmond, BC Dropped by on a rainy day--perfect timing for some comfort food. We shared a few classics: - Wonton & Dumpling Noodle Soup ($16) - bite-sized wontons and dumplings with springy noodles in a flavorful broth. - Pork Liver Congee ($13.25) - silky congee with pork liver cooked to the right consistency. - Taro & Pork Spring Roll ($8.75) - crisp and satisfying. Portions are true Hong Kong style--smaller, so you may want to order a couple of dishes to make it a full meal. Prices lean on the higher side, but the quality is there. Staff were friendly and courteous, which added to the cozy atmosphere. Overall, a great spot to drop in for a quick snack or light meal, especially when you're craving authentic Hong Kong flavors.

    Always come here for a bowl of good wonton noodle soup every time we are in Vancouver. The parking situation was much improved this time because customers had to register their license plate numbers. This is definitely an improvement because in the past we always had a hard time finding parking. The restaurant decor is simple and basic, nothing fancy, but clean and comfortable. The serving staff was very friendly and efficient. Our party of eight shared some deep fried dace fish balls, claypot rice with pork ribs and black bean sauce, and claypot rice with chicken and Chinese sausage. Each one of us also had a bowl of wonton and dumplings noodle soup. Everything was absolutely delicious. The wontons and dumplings tasted just like those top notch ones in Hong Kong. The noodle and soup quality was also amazing. The dace fish balls and claypot rice were also excellent. Highly recommended!

    Wonton noodles

    This place used to be the reason I'm jealous of people who live in Vancouver because they have access to such authentic wonton noodles. I was a bit disappointed this time around. They are known for their wonton noodles so of course I ordered it. The wonton were appropriately placed at the bottom so the noodles don't get soggy easily. However, although the soup base is better than what we get in the east coast, the 大地魚 aroma was significantly less than what it used to be. The noodles were also a bit overcooked and soggy for my liking. I do like the fact the size of the wonton are normal and not a size of your fist, and I also like that there's also pork in it versus all the ones we have in Toronto are mainly shrimp. However, I feel there were too much peppers in it which overpowered the flavors of the fillings. We went on a Friday for lunch and it wasn't very busy. Service was quick as it should be. Overall, I was disappointed and will probably won't be back.

    The beef brisket and pig knuckle over lo mein and the guy lan were very good. Service was professional and efficient. The restaurant was clean and well kept. We will definitely come back next time.

    Really solid and authentic Cantonese food. Fast service -- feels like this places has been doing this for literally decades. Don't be fooled by its appearance. We also got a side of fried chicken wings -- perfect pairing and meal size for two.

    My friend raved about this place and indeed, they were on point as authentic Hong Kong noodle house. I ordered the brisket dumpling noodle soup.  It is a common humble Chinese dish. The serving was small for Western standards but it was just the right portion for me. Every facet about this dish was outstanding.  The soup was rich with many complex flavors. The noodle had a bounce to it.The meat was tender and flavorful. The dumpling skin and contents were great too. When I come back to Vancouver, must come to this place as top of my list.

    Wonton only with soup
    Mark L.

    This review is based on just wonton. I no longer can recommend the wonton noodle unfortunately. After the pandemic, the noodle texture changed and no longer good like before. Wonton on the other hand still very tasty just like those best wonton in HK. The soup also maintain the quality.

    This restaurant is known for their wonton noodles, which are supposed to be authentic Hong Kong cuisine. It was crowded when we got to the restaurant and we needed to wait for a table. When we eventually got our table, we quickly ordered. Got the wonton noodle soup of course. Unfortunately, the noodles were a tad overcooked for my taste with not enough bounce when bit into. The wontons and the soup itself were nothing to write home about. This was also pricier than a similar sized wonton soup bowl in Toronto.

    Beef brisket and tendon wonton noodle soup
    Brennan T.

    Just great homestyle Chinese food at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant! No frills, nothing fancy. Service is fine and decent for a Chinese restaurant. Some friends introduced me to this place because they love the won ton. I got the beef brisket and tendon wonton noodle soup. The brisket and tendon were tender and flavorful. The wontons were some of the best I've had (though they were hiding under the noodles). Noodles had the perfect bite. We also got gailan and seafood jook/congee. Both were delicious! I'd order everything again and again. Next time I'm in Vancouver, BC, I definitely want to return to Max Noodle House!

    Reminds me of those streetside restaurants in Hong Kong. Home-style Hong Kong food. Nothing fancy, but very authentic. The food won't blow your mind but when you want comfort food, this is a good choice.

    beef brisket and tendon
    Tony J.

    Small Cantonese noodle and congee shop amongst the many eateries on Alexandra Rd. Been here for a long time, and it' a series of restaurants from Hong Kong that's known for their wonton noodles. Very traditional looking interior. Menu is limited to mostly noodles and congee, with some small side dishes and claypot rice. Cash only. Got their signature wonton noodles and a side of beef brisket and tendons. Food was served pretty quickly. The beef tendon and brisket are soft without being too soft, and full flavor. The wontons are not big, but pretty tasty. Noodles are good with a little bit of chew, and soup base is as expected. The taste is very authentic and no complaints there. The portions however are pretty small. For $13.5 you get a six inch bowl of noodles, and the $17 beef comes on a pretty small plate as well. Maybe more akin to traditional HK portions lol, but definitely the smallest bowl of Chinese soup noodles I've had in North America. They do fill up the bowl and plates, but they look so small at first glance. Overall, taste is good but portion is pretty small. I prefer Tsim Chai Noodles for wonton noodles in Richmond.

    Menu as of 12/1/22

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.

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.

Char siu is so fatty that it pretty much melts in your mouth and the outside is the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The soy sauce chicken is just incredible. The scallion oil is the perfect bright complement to the uber tender, almost slippery chicken.

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.
