Tried the salted crispy chicken with noodle soup, the pan fried vegetable dumplings, and the steamed pork buns. I would say everything was okay but tasted very average and standard. Nothing was spectacular but everything was acceptable. The pan fried vegetable dumplings were unique with lots of veggies inside but the food quality was just okay. The prices are fair.

This is a family-owned Shanghainese restaurant that offers a variety of authentic dishes, including classics like Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings) and Sheng Jian Bao (pan-fried buns). The food arrived quickly and was served piping hot, showcasing the kitchen’s efficiency. The Xiao Long Bao were exceptionally juicy, with flavorful broth and perfectly seasoned, firm filling, although it does have thicker skin than Wangs in Vancouver. The Sheng Jian Bao, a delicious pan-fried bun, had a crisp bottom and was packed with savory soup, offering a wonderful balance of textures. Another bonus was, it wasn’t too oily. I’ve tried the dan dan noodles and the peanuts were crunchy and provided an enjoyable contrast to the softer dishes. The noodles were slightly overcooked. Bean paste noodles - huge portion and really flavorful. Overall, the meal was satisfying, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and location. This restaurant is truly a gem for anyone craving authentic Shanghai-style cuisine in the area. I’ll definitely be returning to explore more of the menu!

A very simple , family owned Shanghainess restaurant. Offering typical dishes like Xiao Long Bao and Seng Jian. (Soup buns and pan fried buns) Plenty of parking in the Henderson mall, this small restaurant is located in the heart of Coquitlam center. Food came out quickly and hot. XLB was very juicy and tasted good. Stuffing was firm. Seng Jian is a yeast type of pan fried buns. Not much juice inside, yet very crunchy bottom. We tried a couple of the appetizers. Both of them are very good. Beef tripes and beef stomach are very tasty with enough spices which are suitable for most customers. Personally,I can take a bit more heat on these dishe. Peanuts were crunchy and gave a very good contrast of texture. Overall, very good meals. Prices are acceptable for this area. One waiter was working during the non peak time. He got it under control. This restaurant definitely is a find of Shanghai style food in these areas. Will come back to try some other dishes.

Juicy and relatively big xiao long bao (steamed pork bun), I believe it was 6 for $9.99, but a bit lacking in taste. The spicy wonton in chili oil was a bit better and it wasn’t too spicy and much tastier. The beef noodle soup had no much taste but the meat was soft and plenty. Overall, the food and service was just ok. It’s conveniently located by the Coquitlam Library and Coquitlam Centre. There is a covered garage for your parking needs.

I’ve passed by this area quite often and only recently realized this place has a new owner. The inside is not quite big but enough to take about two dozens of people at the same time. Typical like many Chinese business makes you feel the floor is sticky and greasy. Server is super nice and friendly. We ordered the Dan Dan noodle, spicy wonton, cold pig ear appetizer and fried bun. Overall tasty food👍 Dan Dan noodle is not authentic Sichuan style but cooked right with a hint of shrimp sauce. Fried pork bun is very juicy inside with crunchy bottom. Cold pig ear with the garlic sweet and sour sauce is perfectly balanced in flavour and also cooked right to maintain its crispy texture. Spicy wonton is also adequately seasoned and the stuffing inside is tender and moist. Compare this with the other similar restaurants in the Coquitlam centre area, this one so far I think is my favourite. Highly recommend ✌🏻

If you want to taste delicious and authentic Chinese noodles, this is the best I have tried in the Greater Vancouver area. The owner is very enthusiastic and uses high-quality ingredients. Each person can eat to be really full with an average spending of 15-20 CAD. There is also an indoor parking lot nearby, so you can park your car and walk there within 1 minute. If you don't know what to order, I highly recommend trying the pan-fried dumplings (item A7) on the menu. It's worth driving for half an hour just to have those. The second recommendation is the steamed soup dumplings (item A1). If you like noodles, both the beef noodles (item B4) and the spicy dan dan noodles (item B2) are great choices.

Reminds me of Wang's Shanghai cuisine near Joyce. Affordable meals. Good food. XLB - the skin is a little thicker but I didn't mind. Dan dan noodle - gigantic portion. Great value. Not very nutty. The noodle could be less cooked to provide a bouncier texture. Zha jiang noodle - also gigantic portion. Lots of meat sauce. Same noodle note. Salt pepper chicken - $15 is pricey for a side dish but it did come with plenty of pieces. Taste was ok but fried very well with light crispiness. The waitress was super friendly. I would like to come back to try their pan fried buns too. One thing I am wary off is that they already raised the prices even though they recently opened. I hope this doesnt come frequently.

Grand opening, so let’s go we’ve ordered pork chop noodles, dan dan noodle, salted fried chicken and spring rolls. The pork chop and chicken is really good, crispy coating with juicy meat, we like the noodle texture is al dente, We would like the dan dan noodle to be more spicy, and the filling of the spring rolls is a bit too wet, other than that, we enjoyed the dinner very much, the lady who serve us are very friendly and helpful, we would definitely refer this restaurant to our friends

The food portion is small and seems like its made from frozen food. Not fresh and the meat is tough.

December 1, 2024

The portion sizes are very small, and I feel I was definitely overcharged. The food tastes like it came from the freezer; the pork belly dish reminded me of frozen food from TnT. The beef noodle soup tasted bland, like watered-down soy sauce, with no real flavor. I would never return.

Love this place! My children love it so much thank you for making them super happy with the XLB and once again thank you for the spicy sauce!! My best gift today was this as it is my 12th year anniversary!!! I was soooo touched! This place will be my family to go restaurant from now on. We ordered spicy chicken , scallions pancake, XLB, chives and pork dumplings, mini wontons in soup everything taste sooooooooo yummy! They also sell their frozen dumplings and XLB too. Will go on Friday to buy. Once again thank you from my bottom of my heart for such a wonderful restaurant to take great care of the customer needs.

A good place to enjoy a quick lunch of Xiao Long Bao dumplings and Pan fried buns. XLB skin was not too thin/thick and the pan fried buns were light, fluffy, and crispy on the bottom with soup inside. Only thing is service could have been slightly better and waited a while for the pan fried buns.

We ordered Pork chop noodles in soup $14.95. The staff served the chopped pork chops first without noodles. After waiting for more than 10 minutes, we urged the staff, and waited for another around 5 minutes. Finally we were disappointed as the served noodle was very less, soup was tasteless and pork was not yummy. The second dish was Boiled Chinese Chives Dumplings with Pork Ears on Chilly Oil $16.95. Portions were small too and the taste was averaged. We won t recommend this restaurant to friends.

A little shop that serves Shanghainese food. Its not a big place so be mindful if you have a big party (call ahead to book a table so they can arrange for one in the back). Their XLBs are pretty good and juicy as well as their pan fried buns. Their noodles arent bad either but is a little bit bland. Just wished they had the pan fried turnip crepes as well. Their red bean crepe is good. I want to also mention they have a pretty good chicken nuggets and pork chops. Kid-friendliness: Its a small space but they have high chairs.

I heard someone recommended that I try it, and it turned out to be really delicious. The dumpling skins and fillings are both good, and the xiaolongbao are also very good. Unfortunately, they are arranged too close together. The skin will definitely break when you take them out after steaming, and the soup will be all over. The dandan noodles are OK, the noodles are soft, the juice could be richer, and it s not spicy for us. We have the dumplings as a set meal, and the red-oiled pig ears are not spicy either. My favorite is this small bowl of raw garlic sauce. It seems to have vinegar and sugar. Next time I will try the pan-fried buns and scallion pancakes. Parking: We parked in the parking lot on the second floor of Henderson Plaza, then took the escalator downstairs and walked outside.

We found this restaurant by chance yesterday. While waiting for restaurant to open, we were outside observing, the restaurant is clean and neat. Two ladies were preparing baos (buns) and pot stickers in the kitchen, the kitchen is very clean and tidy too. Went in at 11 oclock, we ordered a beef noodle, a Dan-dan noodles and pan-fried pork buns. The beef in the beef noodles is tender. The taste of dan dan noodles is different from that of Sichuan. The soup has a shrimp flavour and is smooth and not greasy. According to the clerk, it is Shanghai style. The pan fried pork buns are juicy and delicious, and beware of the hot juicy soup The clerk is very friendly said that the restaurant has only been opened for five and a half months (New management). I found on their menu that they have soy milk and Chinese fried donuts that I couldnt help being tempted to order one. The clerk said their Chinese donuts are northern China style, but without alum added. They came out hot and crispy, most importantly I dont have that alkaline feeling after eating. They say they use eggs, milk and flour for the dough, so its very healthy. Soy milk doesnt look like from a supermarket. Feel full and satisfied after. What I am going to try the next visit are: Jajang noodles (i.e. dry noodles with minced meat and cucumber) and Pork chop noodles.

I found the lady has lack of customer service. She is being deceitful while it comes out with the price. While we first came in she mentioned that the price increased $1.00 for all of the menu on the list. She even tried to charge more than the increased price that she mentioned beforehand at the time we would like to pay. I found out and she corrected. The Hainanese Chicken Rice : the chicken has bone in and it didnt come with the sauce and soup. (Youll get a complimentary soup but if you chose a drink they will charge an extra buck for hot drink and a couple bucks for cold drinks). Youll not get tea or water. I gave 3stars just because the food is decent but the lack of service and the greedy from the lady is 1star worthy. Edit : the previous review was intended for Lido. The new management is Afang Chinese Cuisine The owner is very friendly. Food just okay. 3,5 star.

Edited to Add: if you check the other reviews, it looks like they changed ownership because the older reviews shows photos of food that isnt in their current menu. I think previously this was HK style cafe, now it is more like shanghai noodle house. We are happy with the new ownership. This place is so underrated, I cant believe there arent more reviews. We have only ordered takeout from Door Dash & Skip the Dishes, and everything we got was fresh and delicious. We ordered Beef Noodle Soup, Spicy Wontons, & Chicken with Chili Oil Sauce, all were fresh, even the bok choy in the beef noodle soup looked greener/fresher than the ones we are use to at other places. A big plus is that their takeout containers are thicker (not flimsy like other takeout places) & they use reusable cloth bags.

Amazing Shanghai cuisine run by a few ladies. The lady who serves also helps prepare dumplings in the kitchen so sometimes its hard to get her attention, but shes friendly and helpful. The buns and the dumplings are the star of the show here, especially the soup buns and dumplings. The only item I cannot recommend is the Dan Dan noodles. Needs more of the seasoning. Also tried the beef noodle soup, wontons in chili, beef and tripe in chili, and the fried pumpkin red bean cakes. All delicious. 100% recommend this hidden gem.

If you want some tasty food, dont go there. Their soups are tasteless and have very little beef and vegetables. And their green onions pancakes have very little green onion and tooo much oil.

The food is honestly okay. It is hard to find legit Chinese food in this area. But just a heads up, if your child is young or loud, it may not be good place to go. The lady just glared at my daughter with a shh when she was loud. I am not saying my daughter is right, but she should at least come and talk to me first before scaring my daughter with a stare and made her cry. I guess we are not coming back for a while despite the fact that their food is quite good. I guess it is a good place for students, singles, or elders but definitely not families with kids. Just thought to let everyone know...

First time here. Will be my last. Came in for wonton soup with noodles (2 orders) and fish balls on the side. Bill came to roughly $29 after tax. 1) fishballs tasted decent, but nothing you couldnt get from T&T to do yourself for 1/3 the price 2) Their version of wonton is a DUMPLING. You get about 4.. maybe 5 DUMPLINGS, some cabbage leaves and noodles. If a Chinese restaurant/HK cafe cannot even get wontons right, I would hate to see them try the rest. Do yourself and your savings a favor and just avoid this place

December 22, 2022

To start off, the food tasted absolutely bland and unseasoned. Come to surprise that the service is even worse than the food, the lady kept glaring at our table and made the experience very uncomfortable/awkward. Even when we tried to smile at her after being glared at, she got angry and looked away :| The chicken meal smelled and tested as if it was reheated in the microwave and the milk tea drinks we ordered tasted bitter. You re better off with ordering food from the mall food court or your local seven11

Tried this place like once a few weeks back. The lady owner was passive aggressive and forced me to tip more for her service.

Newly opened, small, unassuming restaurant with a friendly owner, good food and fair prices. Recommendations: - pork and chive dumplings - pan fried pork bun (be care, the soup inside will be hot even after sitting for 10 minutes.) - secret menu item: salty pepper chicken nuggets We also tried the dandan noodles, beef noodles, pork chop noodles, spicy wontons and steamed buns. All were decent. Slightly disappointing: the XLBs skin was thicker than I like and the beef rolls were a tad dry. There is limited seating, around 30 seats. Free parking in the Henderson lot.

Coquitlams go to for Chinese street food and snacking classics. Due to a focus on street foods from HK/Guangdong, the place is sized smaller than a typical chinese restaurant.

This is the worst restaurant I ve ever had. I didn t tip cuz of terrible service and bad taste food. Server told me it is mandatory to tip them, and her attitude was very rude. Don t waste your time on this one, unless you wanna experience the worst service and food. I will tell all of my friends don t go this restaurant.

This place is amazing. This little restaurant specialized in Cantonese food and traffic is convenient, 1 minute walk from Skytrain. Food is tasty and service is wonderful. Today i ordered some take out, during the wait time i went to do some grocery shopping. I didnt know they close at 8 but the owner still wait me back even they were close. I am so sorry for my careless and thank you for the good service.

The owners service was excellent, but I have to be disappointed with the food and drink. The sauce seemed like frozen and microwaved with a light and strange taste. The milktea also had a weird artificial flavor unlike any other milktea Ive tried. The machine automatically charged 12% tips for a takeout order, which I dont really mind because of the decent service, but at least I shouldve been given the options.

Libo is one of my favourite Hong Kong style restaurants in Coquitlam. The owners used to operate out of Crystal Mall (next to Metropolis) food court for many years. Decided to retire early and sold the business there. After traveling for more than a year and return to Vancouver. They found it Life is too boring without doing any real work in life. So they bought this former Taiwanese restaurant right next to Coquitlam Main Library and just right across from Lincoln Skytrain station. 1 minute walking distance! Best to park either upstairs or underground as the main floor is only 30 minutes to 1 hour the most. The couple who owns the restaurant is super friendly. I see a lot of students dine here because they feel the motherly care from the boss. Strongly recommend to try their authentic HK style milk tea and u would thank me for trying it out here! TRUST ME! If u dont like it just ask for FREE refill.

A great place for home style Cantonese cuisine with friendly staff. Our dishes were packed with flavour and it was clear a lot of attention went in to making these dishes. This place deserves more recognition. Will be coming again.

The day I seated and read menu. No tea no water. After 5 minutes, a group of 6 came in and seated again they have to ask the waitress for water and tea. Waitress bad attitude, no smile, disrespect. Food are soso. I ordered fried beef noodles with only 3 pieces of beef and lots of red and green pepper for 12 buck. I asked the waitress why only 3 piece of beef, she replied they got no more beef. I said why dont you tell me before I ordered. She called the chef out with a cleaver and the chef spoke in strong tone that 12 buck for 3 beef was decent. I was shocked with the cleaver on his hand and remain silence and sat down. then I ordered milk tea with condensed milk but waitress face was not good. Finished my meal, get the bill, they charged me for a dollar on condensed milk when it was not on menu. A dollar could buy a cold drink in the menu. Wow I asked her why you charged me a dollar for drink. She said due to condensed milk. So then I decided not to give any tips. She then asked why dont I tipped? I said you charge me condense milk, why do I need to tip you. She then call the chef out again, this time no cleaver. Chef was in strong tone again ask why I dont give tips. I asked is there a law stated I must give tips? They were silence. Bill was 15 dollar in total for lunch which was overprice for a hong kong cafe but whatever. I would not recommend the restuarant to anyone. I am in doubt with all these good comments. I did a little research and learned that they opened in crystal mall burnaby in the past. Read some bad chinese comments about how they serve customers. Maybe they have no business there so move to Coquitlam. But their way of doing business is no good. I would spread the words out to my friends.

Been there a couple of time, the owner is so hardworking! I went in at 9 am and ask if they have something else other than the breakfast menu she made me the most awesome Taiwanese beef noodle ! She also remembered what you usually order and likes judging from the interaction with her and repeat customers. Ordered thru skip the dishes a few time as well and the food are amazing.

Probably the most legit HK style cafe in the area at least from our first visit in their (very) early days. Friendly staff and tasty food. We tried the Portuguese Chicken Rice and Hainan Chicken rice. Both were delicious. The Hong Kong milk tea is also good. Hoping they keep it up!

Breakfast, lunch and dinner were excellent. Choose a place where the landlady is nice and the service level is the same as that of a hotel. Although there are few seats, it is more humane and the lady boss can take care of the needs of diners. The quality of food is hard to find in Coquitlam. For lunch and dinner, we highly recommend the steak dinner for two. Super delicious. Worth encore very friendly and tiny restaurant. servers are very kind and take caring. the food wise is very tasty, strongly recommend for the steak combo, i ate like two bowls of rice with it.

Staff are friendly and accommodating but some of the food items are just average at best. We got to the restaurant at 1115 which is past their breakfast time. Our son still wanted breakfast so the boss lady was nice enough to extend the time to the kids. The egg and spam was good, but th macaroni soup was very small. The hainanese rice was their specialty item but it was small in portion and lacked flavour. The baked pork chop had a nice creamy tomato sauce while the pork chop itself was more batter and bone than meat. The best dish was the sliced beef and vegetables on rice noodles - great flavour and quantity. The milk teas were decent but could be richer in tea flavour.

Friend and I have randomly discovered this hidden gem within the corner of Henderson Malls parking entrance! After chatting with the owner, I realized they were one of the previous vendors located in Crystal Malls food court! Their lunch sets are tasty and amazingly good! I would highly suggest to try out their grilled chicken and steak on rice with garlic sauce!

Excellent service the owner was very friendly and specially steamed some vegetables to go with our hainanese chicken rice when we asked. The hainanese chicken rice was excellent, my wife enjoyed it as well (and shes Chinese). Please note that the hainanese chicken rice is more Hong Kong / Chinese style, its a little different from the Malaysia style. Well definitely come back.
