just had an awful experience here. staff did not understand any english which made ordering a challenge.
after slow service our tasteless food arrived. the broth was tasteless and the meat (bbq pork/chicken) was insipid with a unpleasant aftertaste. after 10 mins the rice finally came at the end of our meal without apology. we paid and left and were chased down the street as the server hadn't checked our table for payment.
one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had - save your wallet and pallet - go somewhere else.

next up we had some deep fried fish filet with garlic chips. the batter was pretty light and the fish was moist and flaky. it was also not overly salty either.

the food here was good and filled our craving for chinese food. quality was a little hit and miss with dishes being underseasoned and veggies not as crisp as they should be, but overall we were pleased with our meal as a whole. the tofu was very tasty and anata brought the leftovers home and they turned out to be a hit with his parents.

waitress asked for more tip. my friend went their for dinner and ordered their dinner combo. while the food was pretty good, it wasn't anything spectacular or extraordinary. the total, without tax came to over $29, and with tax, it came to just over $31. i'd say the prices weren't extremely cheap - but fair and quite typical. we tipped slightly over 10% on the amount before tax, and the server mentioned that we hadn't tipped enough as we were supposed to tip on the total amount, which included the gst. i told her that this wasn't the case as tip is calculated before tax. besides, the difference was only about .20. but it was the principle. i didn't think a restaurant should argue with the customer on how much tip is given. it is not good ettiquette. in retrospect, maybe we could have tipped 15%. we have done so before. but again that is not the point. quite surprised at this server's manners.

where's the wonton?. for a restaurant that calls itself a wonton house, i don't see a lot of wonton options. aside from a lot of squab dishes, the menu looks similar to most chinese restaurants.

the friendly service (rare in chinese restaurants) are quick and efficient. the servers dart efficiently from table to table, as organised as bees in a hive. our server speaks no english--and when i say no english, i mean none. i ordered off the menu by numbers but she didn't know any of the numbers. fortunately, i speak cantonese, otherwise, i'd have to point at the menu and grunt. no worries, your food will still get to you.

the food here looks a little different than the norm. the egg foo yung sits in a round dish/bowl, and looks a bit like a quiche. the top layer tastes a little crispy while the innards are ooey, gooey good. i would have liked to see a bit more barbecued pork but what's there tastes fine.

the roast pork comes with wonderfully crisp skin and great flavour. the meat is not too fatty, which can often occur because the roast comes from the pork bellies.

the curry vegetables have a bit of spice, but not enough to intimidate the mildest of eaters. the vegetables taste crunchy and cooked well.

with two dishes ordered, you get the rice and a bonus bowl of chicken feet broth. a lot of people i know won't want to eat the feet--at least taste the broth, it's delicious. dessert comes with dinner too, which is a sweetish bean bowl.

however, there really wasn’t anything special about the chicken that i couldn’t get at other similar restaurants.

after six months of relentless recipe testing, scwh has modernized two traditional chinese dishes to suit today’s palette: chinese roast pork & peking duck. gone is the excessive saltiness and greasiness that leave us feeling gross.

we frequently come here as the food is good and the prices are not bad. their specialty is chicken (if you couldn't tell by their name) and they serve free range chicken in a variety of styles. we started off with two half chickens, ching pin and soya sauce but added a third crispy skin half chicken when we decided that we needed more t

i have to be honest that every time i planned to try this restaurant, i couldn’t help myself to pass by it and go to the shanghai restaurant next to it. the signage is actually pretty attractive since not many restaurant use chicken as their theme. ching pin free range chicken is one of their signature. nicely done but not very outstanding since there are lots of restaurant in vancouver serve yummy chicken dishes… the price is reasonable. everything is good, though not outstanding.

recommend to those of you who love chicken.

yummy!. we got 3 dishes, rice and sweet soup for only 30$. the chicken was very good and the pork soup was like my mom's cooking. the soy sauce chicken was good but the garlic/onion chicken was the bomb. the skin is perfect! this place taste great and very good price. great cantonese style food!

the mui-choy was extremely tasteless, we suspected it's either the quality or it's been used repeatedly.

i would be very interested to know what the average age of a restaurant is in metro vancouver, particularly in richmond. it doesn't seems to me that there are many restaurants that are older than 10 years. i don't know … it seems to me there are a lot of
