The best Wonton Soup in Kelowna! Definitely recommend the special Wor Wonton, which has pork, BBQ Pork, shrimp and chicken in the soup. Broth is decent as well!

Very good restaurant, the portions are exceptional, I highly recommend the braised pork, just the best Chinese food I've had in kelowna.The location of the restaurant is a bit out of the way, but the wine is good, I recommend it with 5 stars!

My second time dining here. It is without a doubt not only the best Chinese food in town but also one of the best restaurants in town. While other chain establishments have downgraded quality of ingredients and expected more money, LVS is both reasonable in price and the quality of ingredients is noticeable. This is authentic cuisine make with the complexity of flavour and texture you'd expect. I haven't had one thing that I didn't enjoy thoroughly. Owner is super polite and accommodating. Highly recommend. I don't think you'll find better Chinese food in the Okanagan.

WOW! There's no comparison in kelowna when it comes to contenders for real authentic Chinese food. The owners are so wonderfully kind, & caring. We ordered the pork belly stir fry & basa fish hot pot I've never had anything like it 🤤 I recommend all to come give LVS a try.

I ordered the spicy boiled fish, which was a big portion and very delicious. If you like spicy food, you should definitely try it!!! I also ordered the Chinese style braised pork before, which was also super delicious! It is one of my favorite restaurants in Kelowna, very authentic Chinese food which is also very delicious!

We ordered catering for our Chinese tea ceremony themed wedding. Fanny was very accommodating and understanding of our needs. The food was fresh and delicious and the portions were plenty. Everyone at our ceremony was impressed. We did not have any experience with hosting and Fanny was graciously helping us with portion sizes and dish suggestions as well as being fully transparent with pricing. We consulted a different Chinese buffet restaurant and were quoted similar prices but for half the variety of food. Fanny also personally delivered our food and helped us set up, bringing along serving utensils and food trays. We are beyond pleased with our experience. We strongly recommend LVS Restaurant for their authentic flavour, quality of ingredients, portion sizes and the amazing customer services. Thank you for making our day just that much more special!

Best Chinese restaurant in town by a mile. Will beat most of the Chinese restaurants in major cities as well. The owner and waitress are super friendly and willing to accommodate to the best of their ability. The noodles here is very authentic. Honestly if you just stick to the dishes with Chinese word next to it, it’s never gonna be a bad choice. Every dish that I tried here was never a disappointment.

Man, they don't screw around. Authentic Chinese dishes, proper mala flavor profiles, just... Oh my God I'm so happy this place exists. I cook a lot of this at home but they do a lot of dishes I wouldn't have time or patience to prepare. Amazing food, staff and service. Order from the authentic menu and don't bother with the rest. I recommend everything.

We were very satisfied with our dining experience this time. We ordered three dishes, which tasted very good and perfectly matched the taste of Chinese food. Each dish is full of delicious flavors, exquisitely seasoned and rich in texture. The portion size was just right (a combination of dishes), making us very full. I really recommend this place, especially for those who love Chinese food!

We ve ordered from LVS before and have always been happy with our order, but tonight was extremely disappointing. We ordered the Zha Jian Mein, described as minced pork with carrots and cucumbers in a spicy sauce. However, what we received was noodles with ground beef, bok choy, and absolutely no flavour no sauce or spice at all. Additionally, the Spring Onion Chicken was lacking green onion, and, most importantly, the chicken itself was very dry. It s unclear what went wrong tonight, but both items were poorly made, and one wasn t even the correct dish. I will be giving them a call to discuss what happened with our order.

I ordered pork Chow Mei noodles and Prawn curry fried rice .it was no taste at all. Wasted our money. It was not chow mei .just boil noodles with no taste and the rice is just turmeric and frozen vegetables wil never order from here again. Also when i came in to pick up the food a staff was sleeping on the restaurant couch with no shoes ita so unsanitary.

Tried calling to order food for delivery, they are to busy to deliver so I asked to order for pickup. The lady asked if I could wait 2-3 minutes as she put the phone down, 15 minutes later I decided to hangup. Needless to say I havnt tried their food! Edit, I ordered a second time and they said they dont deliver over 3km away unless I spend minimum 60 dollars, and even after I gave them my address they forced me to order more food (I live 1.7 km away) I ordered in person this time and brought it home myself. I found a huge hair in my wonton soup. 3 strikes your out. (Wonton soup is bland anyways)

This was one of the best chinese restaurants weve been to, in any place. Their customer service is unparalleled; the waiter served us even after closing time. The food was extremely quick in serving: just after ordering we received our first dish shortly. Despite how we came after closing time, their quality didnt lack, nor did they slack because their open hours were done. If youre in Kelowna, I highly recommend this place. I deeply promise it wont disappoint you.

LVS Chinese restaurant in Kelowna offers a mixed dining experience, blending traditional Chinese flavors with contemporary twists. The restaurants ambiance is inviting, with modern décor and a cozy atmosphere perfect for both intimate dinners and family gatherings. The menu at LVS showcases a wide variety of Chinese dishes, ranging from classic favorites like General Tsos chicken and sweet and sour pork to more adventurous options like Szechuan spicy hot pot and crispy duck. Each dish is prepared with fresh ingredients and skillfully crafted to deliver authentic flavors. Service at LVS is attentive and friendly, with staff members knowledgeable about the menu and eager to assist diners in making their selections. However, wait times during peak hours can be slightly lengthy, so its advisable to make reservations in advance. While the food at LVS is generally well-executed and flavorful, some dishes may lack the boldness and depth of flavor found in more traditional Chinese establishments. Additionally, portion sizes can be inconsistent, with some dishes feeling slightly smaller than expected for the price. Overall, LVS Chinese restaurant offers a pleasant dining experience with a modern twist on classic Chinese cuisine, making it a worthwhile option for those seeking a taste of China in Kelowna. Parking: covered and spacious parking Kid-friendliness: Thank goodness they have high chair for my daughter! <3

Although the menu is limited, if the food is anything as good as the lunch we had, I will be more than happy. If youre looking for good Chinese food This little gym is the place to go.

I recently dined at a fantastic Chinese restaurant in Canada and was thoroughly impressed! From the moment we stepped in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The menu boasted a wide array of authentic Chinese dishes, each bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu and offering excellent recommendations. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the exquisite dim sum selection, which was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Overall, it was a delightful culinary journey that left me eager to return and explore more of what this gem of a restaurant has to offer. Highly recommended for anyone Chinese .

Service was slow and food was mediocre on a Sat afternoon at noon. We ordered the bbq pork and rice dish and the rice was lukewarm which was surprising since they have a rice cooker. Then we got the beef brisket noodle soup. That was okay in flavour but it was a bit oily. We also got the 3 dish combo with fried rice and ginger beef. There were pieces of the ginger beef that tasted moldy and had a suspect greenish speck to it. I m not sure how you screw that up since it s fried pieces of beef. Maybe it was an off day but we wouldn t come back based off our experience.

I went in, and I smelled home. I moved to Kelowna from a great late night cantonese food paradise. Everywhere else i have tried was awful & overly whitewashed. I ordered the beef chownfun, stir-fried porkbelly, and boiled sichuan chili fish. The beef chowfun was the only dish lacking in depth of flavour & the neef was not velvited, but it acted as the rice dish to hold the flavours from the other dishes anyway.

This chef knows what they are doing! Not only are the flavors fantastic, but everything was cooked to perfection. The Buddha s feast was excellent, with vegetables that weren t over cooked. They have, by far, the best hot and sour soup in town. The salt and pepper squid was melt in your mouth instead of the over cooked - rubbery stuff other places serve. I will definitely be going back for more.

So far (in Kelowna), the most authentic Chinese food Ive had other than my moms kitchen back in the 90s. Food is pretty good, but you do have to choose the right dishes to match your palette; some of which might not even be on the main English menu. Tell them you speak Chinese even if you dont and youll get access to the bonus menu of real Chinese food (dont start with chicken feet). We went on a Saturday at lunch and it was absolutely empty from 12-1. I guess theyre busier at night and maybe on weekdays when all the Landmark office workers are hungry. When ordering we went with the owners recommendations off the Chinese menu, garlic prawns and sizzling beef which they were great. Then, not on the menu, I asked for some fried Chinese greens and she said they had Bok Choy, so we went with that on the side and rice for two (enough for 4). The only disappointing dish for me was the $38 crispy skin chicken ( ) which took 30+ min to come out and was super dry (unlike previous ppls photos). Maybe I need to order on a better day because this was desert dry. All in all, the place was better than I expected and Ill go again. I recommend to go in a group so you can split the cost to try more variety of dishes together. Ill try some other dishes next time.

December 22, 2023

Ginger chicken (more Chilli than ginger, we love Chilli just wasn t expecting it to be so overpowering). Sweet n Sour Pork tasteless in a yellow sauce. Both dishes extremely over cooked to the point it was hard to cut through the meat. No serving spoons with dishes, white rice isn t on menu had to ask for this extra. No ambiance should have had dinner at a mall !

Had a lot of expectations but sadly it didnt meet. Ordered Pork dumplings, Chicken Chow Mein and salt and pepper Prawns. Didnt like dumplings at all. They were fried gyoza but very different from other places. Taste was weird, outer coating was different, very very light like theres nothing inside. Had a bit of smell. We ended up returning it. Chow Mein should have been cooked for a min more, it was a tad hard plus bland, no taste at all. She offered us chili oil which made it palatable. Salt and pepper prawns were good. Service was good but overall very expensive. Will I return, probably no.

Our favorites were the Sichuan chicken and Sichuan fish. We will definitely be back to try more dishes!

Unfortunate experience. They were super busy, so had to wait an extra 20 min after the 30 min quoted over the phone. That would be fine if the food was amazing but nope. The deep fried prawns were so over fried and hard you could cut your gums. Great looking veg in the chow mein but it was extremely salty like I wondered if I could save it if I rinsed it. Shredded lemon chicken looked good but had a lot of gristle!! and ice cold after the 5 min drive home. Chicken fried rice was good so 1 out of 4 is horrible for 75$.

We have read many reviews of this place so finally decided to try it (generally I am not fond of Chinese food but my husband loves it). Well we BOTH really enjoyed our meal! The vegetable chow mein might have been my favourite - fresh, not over cooked and there were lots of veggies (so often you have to hunt for the vegetables). The sweet and sour pork was delicious but perhaps a bit over cooked and while the ginger chicken wasn t as ginger as I expected the kick of spice was perfect. We had our own rice at home to top off the meal. With the rice, there was enough food for 2 dinners for 2 very big eaters (we definitely ate more than we should have). We will be back again, thank you!

I stopped by for a meal on the way to Penticton. The portions were so big that four adults and three children ordered five dishes and didnt even finish them. Every dish is delicious, the lemon shredded chicken is especially delicious, refreshing and appetizing. The price is also very cheap. recommend! When we went, some friends didnt want spicy food, so they didnt order the traditional Sichuan dishes. The salt and pepper shrimp is not very flavorful but very crispy and fragrant. The sizzling beef, braised eggplant and fried noodles are all good. There were not many people, so the food was served very quickly, and the waitress was also very nice.

When it comes to Chinese food outside of China, authenticity is often a very murky subject. That is because Chinese food outside of China is adapted to suit the palates of the locals they are serving. So one can t put authenticty together with chinese food outside of china because it will never work. But there is nothing wrong with less authentic chinese food if basic cookery is executed well. LVS has mastered Wok Hei - the rest such as flavour - is adapted to the local palate. I enjoyed the food here as a Taiwanese Canadian but relatives of mine who visited me from China feel there is still a difference in flavour, especially Chinese spices and spiciness level. To each their own but do not write off this place. Big portions, tasty dishes, fresh ingredients and very good prices.

We came here from Edmonton on vacation and came here to eat after a friend recommended it. The taste of the food was quite good and the portion was sufficient, except that the fried large intestine was a bit salty. Also, there are too few types of soups. There are only wonton stew soup and hot and sour soup. In fact, I just want a tomato and egg soup, but there is no soup. I can only eat and drink water. I hope I can order soup when I come on vacation next year.

I can confirm that this place offers real, authentic Chinese food in Kelowna. They do have a lot of dishes on their menu but I find that the cuisine style is more Sichuan/northern Chinese. They also serve all day dim sum but we did not try. The dishes were piping hot when they came and the portions were huge. I was quite surprised that the restaurant was not as busy as expected during dinner time. I guess that s likely due to the location which doesn t have a lot of traffic and the friendly owner also told me that they are new. Highly recommend to anyone to come here and give them a try.

Let me start off by saying this isn t terrible food. We got the Contonese Chow Mein and the Seafood Hot Pot. Firstly, they need to update all their menus so that they are in sync because all of them have different prices. There is a menu that flashes on the TV monitor that is MUCH cheaper than the menus you are given, PLUS the menu on the monitor has other items that are not available on the other one. It s hard to know what exactly you re ordering and what price you re paying. The chow mein was flavourless and too sweet. The hot pot was tasty but nothing special. I was excited to see that they offer dim sum because usually we have to travel to Vancouver for decent dim sum but I am scared to pay their prices and be disappointed. I will say that the wonton soup was excellent though and the waitress was very kind.

It s been almost a month since I came to Kelowna, and I finally had Chinese food that I hadn t seen in a long time. The taste is very authentic. Its hard to find such a good Chinese restaurant here. When the food comes, I just think about eating it and dont take much photos. Will visit again in the future.

I used to like this place, last time I ordered a chicken dish on veggies, (which I have had begore) it came out as bone in pork on hot peppers. I asked what meat it was, and I was told it was chicken. It was NOT chicken, I believe he gave me the wrong dish. Not that it was a substitute. But he insisted. The food was ok otherwise. I dont think I will be back. To respond to owner, I understand the traditional Chinese food. We come there for the authentic food. The item I ordered, i have had before. It was boneless and served on vegetables. I asked the server again if it was the dish I ordered, and I was told yes. I asked where the veggies were, I was told.. I dont know why they didnt serve them. Since we had ordered this item before, and knew it was boneless, my husband broke his tooth biting into it. So, we can chalk it up to miscommunication but since I verified a second time with your server, perhaps the break down is with them. Either way, Im sad that I wont be back, I thought your food was amazing, and now I dont. Not sure if you have a new cook.

For context, Im Cantonese, grew up in Richmond, so Im pretty picky about actual Chinese food and Kelowna is... sorely lacking in this department. That being said, LVS is definitely hitting the right notes here. We ordered 3 items: #5 stir fry pork belly ( ), #24 beef chow fun ( ), and curry beef brisket w/rice ( ). The pork belly and beef brisket were great, flavours were exactly what I was expecting. We ordered an extra bowl of rice as the items without rice/noodles dont come with any, and overall the main dish + rice portions were very generously sized and delicious. However, Im knocking off a star as the beef chow fun was Not It (no pic cause we got it to-go). I suspect the chef doesnt understand the dish fundamentally; it is a pretty Cantonese-specific dish. The color of the ho fun was too light (needs dark soy), there were unexpected veggies (peppers, cabbage) but somehow missing bean sprouts? It was pretty underseasoned as well. Based on the pork belly and beef brisket Ill definitely be back to try some of their other items, for anyone else craving beef chow fun, Mekong still seems to be the place to go.

We have tried so many Chinese Restaurants in and around Kelowna over the years. Some are OK, but thats pretty much it. When it comes to authenticity of the food...you are usually out of luck (We have been spoiled with great, authentic Chinese Food while we were living in Vancouver). But then we found LVS! This restaurant has become our go to Chinese Restaurant in town. The food is great and the flavours are very good. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to any of our friends. Give it a try. Its such a great addition to our local ethnic food landscape. Times for restaurants are not easy. Lets support the good restaurants...LVS is definitely one of them!!! Vegetarian options: There are great Vegetarian options on the menu and LVS is always helpful when it comes to provide Vegan options of certain dishes. Dietary restrictions: My wife has a Dairy Allergy and wherever we order from we have to make sure that the items for her are save for her consumption. Many local restaurants do not pay a lot of attention, especially when it comes to cross-contamination, we found that LVS is very accommodating and has always been helpful when it comes to our special requests (modifying dishes for us).
