Great Chinese Food and Excellent Service! My friends and I came from Seattle, and we had no idea which restaurants in the area were good. We searched on Google Maps and saw some food photos from other reviews that caught our attention, so we decided to try this place. The staff were incredibly helpful, recommending dishes for us to try. We also ordered a few things that we personally wanted to taste. The food was fresh, delicious, and absolutely worth the price. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. Highly recommended!

Pretty decent dimsum and service, not as pricey compared to other places. The baked custard pastry was delicious. However, their bbq pork rice roll here was not as good as I expected. Would only come here if I was in the area. Also, they charge an extra 2% for credit card payments.

The food are delicious and large portions, when I first looked at the prices, it was definitely on the high side, but once you see the portal and the quality of food, they seem to be fair if I compare to a cheaper places, small portions and lower quality. I would say it’s about 1.2-1.4 times. Service wise was ok, just like another Chinese restaurant, friends were friendly and on top of our teas and waters.

★★

In my opinion, this is an overpriced chinese resturant. Perhaps of prime location inside station square they can charge for these prices. 2% added if you use credit card to pay. Overall, the portions are small and expensive. The peking duck and the vege budda noodle was good. I would recommend the bitter melom scallop fried egg. It was a nice mix but the egg was quite oily, I would order a rice bowl with that dish. The complimentary dessert this time was a water down sugary taro tapioca, didnt taste much of coconut milk. Service was mediocre, asked a few times for the bill but no one bought it. I asked for a booster seat and the server just left it there, didnt bother to tie it up for us.

Good food. Portions are large. Parking on street is impossible. Underground parking found below the strip mall where restaurant is located. Air conditioning is blowing too strong and cold. Had to request a few times for it to be turned down.

Busy spot for lunch. Worth it if you’re looking for that consistent Hong style cafe fare. The noodle soup was excellent. Milk tea, excellent. All very standard. Including service. As long as you keep expectations in check and your intent is in and out, then this is a great place for you.

Fresh seafood dishes along with plenty of Chinese dishes to appeal to just about any palate preferences. We tried their a la carte dishes for dinner as well as their king crab special dinner. Great tastes with good service in a comfortable setting.

Most of the food are pretty decent. The service was impeccable. The servers were attentive and courteous, a few are quite friendly too! Edit: Added photos. Been here multiple times and I gotta say the service varies. Sometimes it's great other times not so much. Dim sum is great, I wouldn't go for any of the wok dishes especially fried rice and rice noodles. They lack "wok taste".

The food was good. We arrived around 2 and ordered quickly. Around 2:40 they did a last call before their 3:00 break. They were playing Rudolph the red nose reindeer on loop about 20 times until someone finally turned it off. It was a little strange but perhaps given we are nearing Christmas.. we joked it was their way of getting us to leave. The staff were pretty nice and the food was delicious.

The worst customer service I ve experienced between Canada, US, and Europe. They forgot two of our orders, and tried to charge us for them. Didn t bring us waters, and one menu between five people. We were exhausted with this dinner experience and I would highly suggest you go anywhere else.

I have been eating Chinese, or Chinese canadian food for 60 years or more in many places in BC Hawaii ..plus. never have I tasted less appetizing eats posing as Chinese food. Lemon chicken,typically delish...no, try cardboard. Granted it was our first time there. Lots of Asian style restaurants...competition is fierce..best they up their game or lose to the Korean trade...so delish. The dim sum would have been the choice as that is made off site....next time...somewhere else. Plenty of choice

This is usually my familys goto place to dine for Chinese food dinner. Ive also attended a number of wedding receptions here and the food is always quite good. Ive also had the pleasure of having my own wedding reception here and wished the service was more accommodating. I wanted a private closed room but since I didnt pay for their set menu, it was not allowed. On the day of the reception, the service was top notch and the rest of the restaurant was relatively quiet so it made up for it I feel. The food came out at a good pace and was good. You pay premium when you go to Neptune and while the food is a bit better than your average Chinese food, I dont the pricing is justified. My favourite menu items are the spicy squid and house special chow mein.

Enjoyed dim sum of mushroom dumplings, tofu, chive shrimp cake, rice roll with donut , fried shrimp balls

August 21, 2024

Dine in on Friday night, (16th Aug), not busy at all! When we paid the bill, with credit card would be additional 2%. Our meal was $100 (tax included), we paid $120 cash assuming we could get the change. Nope! We did not even have a chance to think the % of service tips! They kept our $20 as tips! No one gave us the change back! Yes, we re assuming we will pay at least 18% tips nowadays BUT with minimum service, average food, 20% ? With this kind of payment method, never go back again!

Its been forever since we last had king crab... And although the prices nowadays are crazy, its well worth the splurge once in awhile. Instead of going with their set menu, we decided to pair our king crab with dishes that we wanted. This king crab turned out to be 8.25lbs. The steamed legs in garlic sauce was as good as I remembered. Plus the spicy deep fried knuckles were sooo tasty. While we werent planning on getting noodles, they convinced us to order some noodles with the left over garlic sauce and its worth the carbs. But you cant have king crab without the baked Portuguese rice in the crab shell. The Peking duck that we ordered here was similarly great! Loved that it wasnt too fatty and the skin was perfectly crispy. While its not something that wed have every day, super glad we had it here. Update: March 2024 - Visited during Easter... thank goodness for Chinese restaurants that open during holidays... Nice large chiu chow dumplings with soft and slightly sticky wrappers with plentiful filling. Tender chicken feet, spicy honeycomb beef tripe. They make a good taro dumpling with pork and dried shrimp dumpling. Tried a new dessert dish here... the black sesame and coconut roll. I think half the fun of this dish is unrolling the rolls while you eat them. Also had the veggies with shrimp filling (crispy tofu wrap, green pepper, and eggplant).

Not sure what is the hype about. Food tastes basic with no flavor. They are not open to Allergens. I have been to better places smaller than Neptune but amazing food Parking: Not sure about the parking

June 21, 2024

We reserved a king crab for a special dinner. 30 minutes prior to the reservation they called to say they do not have any. I made the reservation the day before and they had inventory. I inquired why they don t have the crab and they said even with reservation it does not guarantee 100% that you will have what you reserved. Reserving is more like putting in a request but does not guarantee anything.

Had dinner. Recommended dishes: beef tenderloin with egg plant (best dish), sweet sour pork (crunchy and good), assorted seafood with vermicille (good), mushrooms with pea tips (good), shredded chicken noodle (ok only-- substituted pork with chicken), crispy chicken (good), steamed chicken (very good), fried rice with chicken and salted fish (good). Washroom was overflowing with paper towels. For a premium pricing restaurant, expected better. Minus points as CR card payment would incurr 2 percent fee. Else cash or denit or Amex is ok.

Food was amazing. Service made it all very comfortable. There was a drip coming from the ceiling and it was disconcerting. Not because it was dripping into food, which may have been been possible, but because the server said that it was coming from the swimming pool above and it can t be fixed.

Food was good and so was the service BUT please elect and select someone to just keep the washrooms clean and up to standards! So much wet and pee all over the floor quite grossed me out! Without this big overlook I would have given you a 4 to 5 star! Even with prices being pricey. Parking: Free parking lot right there!

Come for overpriced food and you get terrible service for free. We had a reservation and it was clear they had a table right behind us, so the servers rushed us from the very beginning and throughout the entire meal. We even overheard that they wanted to rush us out for the next seating. Not sure why they d say that out loud so close to us. Before we finished our last dishes and before we even got red bean soup, they came with the bill so that s really odd. One server rolled her eyes when we asked for a container for leftovers. Sheesh. Let s just say we felt zero guilt for leaving without tipping. There s too many Chinese restaurants to put up with this - I can t recommend it.

Went to eat king crab two days ago The price is also reasonable But the crab meat is thin and is already lukewarm when served. A bit disappointed Even though they were busy, the waiters still greeted us with a smile and were very professional. The stations are close to each other and the decoration needs room for improvement. The atmosphere is noisy.

Had a good time with my classmates for dim sum ( first time ) at this locations. Selections of dim sum was great, had pictures in the triple fold menus of the dim sum! Make things easier to choose the dim sum for someone who myself cant read chinese. It was helpful and it was great! Will be back!

December 21, 2023

We made reservation at 6pm Jan 14, 2023 at the new Brentwood location. Not to be confused with the Surrey and/or Gateway locations either. We had to use their iPad to order. No clear instructions on how place our order. After deciding on order, handed iPad back. Then waited for 30 min and asked when our dinner was coming. They replied its coming Another 15 mins goes by and not 1 of our 11 -12 dishes appear. We ask again and one of suited servers wasnt sure about our dinner order. We then speak to the manager and voiced our unhappiness after manager suddenly realizes they didnt ntreceive our order. After telling them this is a supposed 2022 Michelin restaurant, mgt.retook our order and stated 1 of our orders was sold out. When you visit a high end chinese restaurant you dont expect this kind of very poor experience. When we booked reservations, mgt. failed to let us know the only elevator for their customers wasnt operating. By the way, this omission caused my elderly mother in law to navigate up 2 flights of stairs. They should have kept the old method for ordering rather cause confusion and ultimately anger from their customers. I for one will seriously doubt l will would come back. 4/5 for high costly menu dishes.

Taking advantage of the special price of king crab, the family ordered a 10-pound king crab for 26.88/pound. It is a preferential price that has never been seen in many years. Garlic paste, head smoke + crab shell rice, very delicious, the service is also very attentive, and the food is delicious. The most satisfying king crab ever!

December 21, 2023

First of all, waitress give us previous customer s menu, confused both of us for ordering. When we show the waitress our steam pork and dumplings are still raw, she is quite not happy and said we sold more than ten dishes, you guys the only one complaining . Before we asked her for bill, she clean up the table and show us time to go. No good food, no service, we don t know why have to go back to this restaurant.

Last Saturday, I ordered a takeaway fried rice with salted fish and chicken. It had no taste. I guessed that the chef forgot to put in the salted fish, we could not find a single salted fish. We were very disappointed.

December 21, 2023

The king crab set meal is a complete scam, with cut corners and extremely poor service attitude. During the COVID-19 period, our neighbors gave us strong support, but now that the market is recovering, we have the appearance of a rogue shop that never comes to visit. No one is there to pour tea and water. They serve cold dishes and rancid rice an hour after placing orders, telling them that the dishes are just like this. When paying the bill, he changed his face and looked like he was asking for a tip and not leaving. If our negative review is biased, please feel free to contact me for clarification. If you ignore it and do not review such a low service level, you will surely be spurned by more regular customers.

Terrible service. We check the food listed on the menu. There are dishes (2) that didnt arrive. The server never told us it is not available. Another thing one dish arrived when we are already done. We have this one removed from the bill. Also their washrooms is not available. This is not acceptable they should have call the repair company to have it fixed asap since customers usually uses it before and after their meal. The supervisor said to go out and use the Best Buy washrooms. This is unacceptable. We came there Saturday lunch and its a busy day. Most of the servers doesnt speak much English probably thats why we ask for a soy sauce it didnt arrive until we finished our meal. Parking: Parking at the lower floor.

Showed us the bigger one and charged us for the heavier price, but do you guys think the cooked one was 8.9lb for real? I know seafood trick is pretty common in Vancouver, which you are charged slightly more for what you actually eat, but I didn t expect to be scammed for 3.5+ lb and that s $94 + 18% tips.

We dined at this dim sum place a few times before and every time we paid 10-20% tips according to the service we received. And this time they added a 2% surcharge for credit card transactions and we were also not very pleased with the dining service today. So my husband paid in cash and didn t want to add a tip, just left some coins. And then the server told us the tip wasn t enough which was super rude. If tips are mandatory please put it on the receipt.

Food is just okay; I expect better at their price level. Service is good. Im giving one star also because they charge 2% for credit card payment. A big business like Neptune cant pay the 2% to card companies? The payment service is used by businesses not by consumers. Ill give my business to other restaurants who are not stingy.

December 21, 2023

Tried a few Neptune Restaurant locations but still feel that their customer service is still bad. The staffs are eyeing for rich and generous customers so they can ripped off them and give them generous tips. The rest of the customers are mediocre and lack of customer service because the staff thinks the mediocre are not so generous

I went to eat the Peking Duck on Tuesday night, which was disappointing. The duck meat was dry and woody, and the portion was insufficient, which was much less than others. In addition, I ordered a seafood fried rice, which tastes good, but the price is also very expensive. It costs $36.80 per serving. The point is that the price is also calculated at $39.80 per serving when checking out. My friend told us to pay attention to the bill before, and it will be wrong. In addition, it should be noted that there is a 2% fee for credit card payment, but they have never notified the guests. I went to this restaurant for Dimsum before. In addition to the expensive price, the taste of the Dimsum was much worse than when it was just opened. The service was average. Except for the convenient location, I strongly not recommend it! Went to eat sliced duck for two on Tuesday night, and it was particularly disappointing. The duck meat was dry and woody, and the portion was insufficient, much less than other restaurants. I also ordered Typhoon Shelter Seafood Fried Rice. It tasted good, but the price was also very expensive, costing $36.80/portion. The important thing is that the price was marked as $39.80/portion when checking out. I don t know if it was intentional. My friend told us to pay attention to it before. The bill will be wrong. Another thing to note is that there is a handling fee for credit card payments, but they never informed the guests. I went to drink tea at his place before. The price was very expensive.

I paid my bill by a foreign debit card but the manager insisted that it was a credit card and demand us to pay back the 2% credit card charges. Kinda of regretting paying them the 10% tips at the first place because they didnt deserve it. Like others comments, better off going somewhere else.

December 21, 2023

Had dim sum last Saturday and had a very bad experience. The service was total very badpaid by credit card and give 12% tips on top. The lady from cashier was not happy about the tips. She said it very loud that so little tips and were pointing at out table scolding behind the cashier. I will never return to this place.

They do not take credit card so please make sure to bring cash or pay with your debit. Great food, but ordered the BBQ Duck and it was not worth the price. Tasted quite old whilst been covered with sauce to deter how old it tasted.

We made a reservation for King Crab set dinner B advertised on Ming Pao newspaper for $688. When we went today, was told it is $738. We told the staff that it is advertised for $688. The manager came said the NEW price was there for a long time. We left immediately as It is so call bait and switch. Can t believe this is well known Chinese restaurant group in Vancouver. BEWARE!!! If you don t mind get scam, then go head. This is deceptive marketing under Competitive Act.

Very delicious! We ordered pork loin porridge, loin pork ribs rice rolls pot and soy sauce chicken. The pork tenderloin and pork loin are processed very cleanly, have no peculiar smell at all and are very delicious. The meat of the soy sauce chicken is very tender and tasty. Its a pity that I didnt get the rice rolls because I waited for too long. I will definitely visit again next time I go to metrotown.

Always delicious food. Usually its crowded its why noisy, thats bothering, but makes sense due to their food, especially that its not that expensive however various. Staff is good people, but their service not this that we are used to when visit other fancy restaurants Vegetarian options: A lot of options without any meat. Like their eggplants Dietary restrictions: A lot of options for keto-diet, especially my favourite is their duck, extremely good

The afternoon tea set is very cost-effective. Both are very convenient for ordering. There are many choices. The set meal plus drinks does not exceed $20. It is a large plate. It tastes good and the snacks are also of good quality. The sugar water is just a little bit bad. The sesame paste I ordered last time was broken. You need to switch to almond tea. The set time is from 10 am to 5 pm, and the arrangement is very considerate.

What a disappointing dining experience. The Chongqing boiled fish, which is older than 10 years old, uses frozen Longli fish pieces. The fish meat is as hard as a stone. The birds nest and shark fin soup smells overwhelming. The only edible thing is a garlic bean sprout. The service staff... We only recommend king crab and geoduck at the beginning. It seems that if you don t order it, you will be poor. This is what you need to order when you come here. I ordered squab and I was told that I need to make a reservation, but it didn t say that I needed to make a reservation on the menu. I ordered kale and said that I didn t have it. I forgot what I ordered and half of it was missing. It is said to be recommended by Michelin. Is Michelin blind? You can still buy it with money!

The waitresses displayed immediate attitude when my friend and I sat at a table. While I initially thought it might be an off day for them, their tone escalated as they continuously pestered my friend, who has an accent, while explaining their order. This behavior seemed particularly rude, especially when I observed their friendliness with other customers.

We went in to experience it and we wont be doing it again, thats for sure. The staff seem unphased or unbothered to help diners, rude at times. The meal itself was nothing above ok, some of the dishes were cold and one of the crab dishes had a long hair in it, we sent it back of course. The desserts were wonderful though. We paid for the meal but they had overcharged us for crab and lobster even though we only chose the crab selection. Thank you but no thank you

Went for the all you can eat crab and lobster for $98.00 and had a fantastic experience. Contrary to some reviews, the service we received was fantastic. They changed our plates very frequently for the lobster and crab shells we generated. It was truly an all you can eat lobster and crab experience where we were literally allowed to order as much as we wanted within the time limit until we ate until we could barely breath. Each lobster and crab was made fresh and delicious. The fried lobster with rice cakes in soy sauce was my favourite here. The only downside was that their egg yolk fish skin was soggy and not crispy or warm like the Grand Neptune location. Otherwise, everything tasted awesome and they offer more variety of desserts than the Grand Neptune location for ayce including milk pudding with coconut jelly and lychee and osmanthus gelatin in addition to the standard mango pomelo sago. We all enjoyed this meal very much and for what you get, it s a great deal for $98.00.

We tried the AYCE crab and lobster meal last week, the food was delicious, portion is good and arrive promptly. Deducted one star because 2 of the lobsters are not fresh out of a total of 12 crabs and lobsters we ordered. Servers are enthusiastic and we feel their kindness and patience while we have more kids than adults. Special thanks to Ming who provided unlimited patience and exceptional service during our time in the restaurant. We had a great time.

Dim sum is good but a bit pricey. Comfortable seating and tea was refilled when empty. Washroom is always dirty and slippery every single time we come. For the price of lunch this should be kept much cleaner and safer. Someone could slip and hurt themselves. Overall decent place for dim sum if shopping in the Metrotown area.

Quite a busy place; have to wait at least 20 mins to get a table for dim sum during the brunch rush hour if you dont have a reservation! The service is good. But with inflation, be prepared to pay an average of $9 per dim sum dish. Overall food quality is good.

Great dim sum, some items might seem under salted but when u add the proper sauces that pairs w them then it is properly salted. The thing w Chinese food is season to your own liking. Great service and great variety. Not too busy earlier in the morning which is good for parking and w parents who have social anxiety. Getting busier after 10am make sure to make reservations

The 2 stars is for the location and decor for being newer. The floors leading to the washrooms are extremely slippery. Id be surprised if no one has slipped there yet. The food is decent, but thats where the positives end. The main issue with this restaurant is their lack of honesty. We came here for a family dinner, and had ordered the King Crab set meal for a specified price. On top of the King Crab, there was also Ling Cod as part of the menu items. These 2 dishes were where things go awry: 1) They told us there was no Ling Cod ( ) available, and would be substituting Tilapia ( ) as a replacement. For anyone that knows their food pricing, theres a big distinction on Ling Cod and Tilapia pricing. We asked whether there would be a price adjustment to factor in the lower quality ingredient, but they said no adjustment will be made. Imagine going to McDonalds and wanting a Big Mac meal, they say theyre out of Big Macs and will substitute a regular hamburger instead, but you still get the privilege of paying for the Big Mac meal price. Strike 1. 2) I didnt know this before, but apparently the standard King Crab weight (as part of a set meal) is around 7 lbs. Prior to preparing the King Crab, one of the Managers came over and showed us the King Crab, claiming its a beautiful 8.5 lbs. We thought that after point #1s blunder, they were offering us a larger sized King Crab to off-set the inconvenience of the Ling Cod substitution. Boy, were we in for a surprise. Rather than notifying us upfront, we were unpleasantly surprised to see an extra $100 charged for the 1.5 lbs difference for the King Crab. Strike 2. Honestly, these 2 strikes are enough that a 3rd strike is not needed to blacklist them from our dine out options. Be sure to educate yourself on seafood pricing (whats considered more valuable). If we were taken advantage of despite knowing price differences, I can imagine them preying on uninitiated individuals/groups. Stay safe out there everyone!

This tea house is in a good location, close to the Metrotown skytrain station and bus terminal. There are not many ground parking spaces in the mall, but there are enough parking spaces in the basement. The teahouse is newly renovated, and many seats have a view of the street. It is very comfortable, but a little crowded. The Tieguanyin tea tastes very good, and the dim sum is good, especially the beef rice rolls. The beef portion is generous and comes with cabbage. However, the fried spring rolls had a salty filling and the overall taste was satisfying.

The location of the restaurant is good, but unfortunately the indoor density is too high and there is too little space between tables. It is quite crowded, so the noise is loud. Also, some of the dim sum wasnt as good as it should be. If the spring rolls are too salty, the sauce for the prawn horns should be served separately instead of pouring it directly on the prawn horns, otherwise the shrimp horns will not be crispy.

Dined in (weekend in December 2022) with a party of 11 plus toddlers and were kindly seated at a spacious table. We ordered the set menu and everything was well done. A few standouts: -the lobster was fresh and perfectly prepared - no need to dirty your hands or the lobster fork! -the eggplant and beef dish was nicely caramelized and surprisingly tasty -food came out at a good pace so never had to wait for the next dish nor have a dish brought to us and sit, becoming cold -restaurant and restroom looked clean though they really should install diaper changing tables! -staff were attentive (tea was always filled and hot) and patient (when making group decisions) This was my second time dining here and I would definitely return to give them my business.
