This place has a lot of haters but i dont mind their dimsum coz its pretty decent and cheap. A rice bowl with spare ribs and chinese chorizo for $4.50 is my go to and the fried taro pastry is a must too. Usually with a side of xo sauce. And they are already open by 8:30 am which is good for people like me that starts work at 11am.
Surprisingly Good
Went there for an early Dim Sum Lunch on Sunday. Waited for a while to be seated. 20% off before 11:00 a.m.
Ordered Steamed Shrimp Dumplings, Pan Fried Turnip Cake, Braised Beef Tripe, Steamed Rice Rolls w. Beef, Baked BBQ Pork Buns, Preserved Veggies & Beef on Rice. All of them were pretty good - tasty but not salty and hot enough. Service was attentive. Nice environment (not too noisy). Nice menu with good variety of choices.

足料抵食禦寒三寶套餐
北京王府井小吃街以薈萃中國及各地風味小吃而聞名中外，在溫哥華的列治文也有一家叫王府井的京川粵食肆。列治文是加拿大華人居民比例最高的城市，市內遍佈各色風味的中國餐館，到處都有掛著中文招牌的商家超市，曾經有西人遊客攪笑的說到“中國”旅遊了半天，離開時才知道是列治文。可想而知中菜館要在這裡生存就必須擁有過人之處才成，而「王府井京川粵名菜」在上址已經營多年仍然䇄立不倒，堪稱是這區的中菜老字號。加上它位於列治文SkyTrain終點站旁，對不駕車的人士也非常方便。
「王府井」的室內裝飾在設計上極具歐洲宮廷色彩，除了地方十分闊落外、座位配置也甚為寬敞舒適，完全沒有擠迫的感覺。早上提供粵式茶市，全部點心11時前落單8折、11時後9折優惠，另茶市粉麵飯一律$8.95。晚飯時段的套餐選擇也很多，其中更有季節性的美食如皇帝蟹、蛇羹等，由於取價老實公道，所以都極受食客歡迎。我每年都會來光顧這裡的皇帝蟹套餐，今次改為品嚐店家的禦寒三寶 (包括乾隆五蛇羹、枝竹羊腩煲、生炒糯米飯) 足六位用特價$35元，附帶條件是要額外惠顧兩個小菜

King Crab Heaven!. This is my go-to place for King Crab. I loved this place so much that we went here 2 times in one week and had 2 10+ pound King Crabs, 1 each per visit. I guess it doesnt hurt when you also have 2 family-visits from out of town and you have to entertain them!
First of all the price is VERY reasonable for King Crab. They have the big ones, and at 14.99 per pound, it is a very good deal. The only catch is, that you have to order 2 entrees, which is also not bad, because EVERYTHING I have tasted there is good, EXCEPT for the Shark's Fin soup, which was below par, and probably wont order from them again in the future unless they change their quality/recipe.
We always order it 2 ways, Garlic steam the legs, and Spicy-fried the body. We dont order the baked rice in the shell, as we like to eat other fried-rice/rice dishes, which would make it too much in the carbs section.
They use fresh garlic, and what can I say, I have tried King Crab at The Prince Seafood and Grand Honor at Oakridge this year, and I find Imperial Court to be the best in terms of taste and value.
Also, try their Sauna ribs as one of the entrees, you wont regret it. Once again, this is my go to place for King Crab Chinese style!
I really enjoy this place. The food is wonderful and the price is reasonable. Their chow mein though is a bit bland and could use some more flavours.
My mom’s favourite is the deep fried taro dumplings with duck meat: crispy outside, fluffy inside, and bursting with flavours.But it is hard for me to pick a favourite dish. All the dumpling dishes are good here. The seafood and vegetables are always fresh. I never forget to ask for a a little plate of they specialty chilli oil, it just brightens everything up on your taste buds.
Imperial Court is one of the more affordable places to go for dim sum in Central Richmond! BBQ Pork Pastry 4/5 stars These were the best thing we had that day! The skin was perfectly flakey and had notes of citrus. The char siu filling was definitely much sweeter than other BBQ Pork pastries. Fried Shrimp in Eggplant 2/5 stars These were alright. The shrimp filling lacked flavour and was rather flat toned. On the plus side, the eggplant wasn't soggy. Chicken Feet 3.5/5 stars These were standard. The skin was soft and flavourful, and had a subtle spiciness. There were also noodle bunches on the bottom. Chive & Crab Dumpling 2/5 stars The skin was ver delicate and skin, and there was an abundent amount of filling. However, these were rather lacking in flavour. Beef Rice Roll 2/5 stars The skin wasn't as soft as I would have liked and was a tad bit g

How do people look for a Chinese restaurant to try out? Asides from selecting randomly, through word of mouth or an advertisement from a newspaper, perhaps some people call Chinese restaurants regarding the prices for live seafood? Well, that was the case for me. There are a few restaurants in Richmond that I want to try such as Fisherman's Terrace, Top Gun J&C (since I have a Top Gun membership card), Dragon View and Shiang Garden. But, since Imperial Court was offering lobster at $9.99/lb, we headed here. Imperial Court is a very clean restaurant and has a bit of an European touch; theme, color and detail wise. The restaurant is fairly large and the seating arrangements are not cramped. Also, there is a private room at the back of the restaurant. As for the food, Imperial Court is a higher end restaurant that serves shark's fin, abalone and sea cucumber. Furthermore, quality abalone and sea cucumber where prices range from $45.00-$80.00 PEKING DUCK TWO COURSE MEAL. FIRST COURSE, PEKI
This restaurant is pretty big. But it would be better to make reservations on the weekend for dinner time because it can get pretty packed.
Alaska King Crab (AKC) for $9.99/lb. How is that breaking news? Well, you see AKC is on sale at T&T for $10.99/lb, but you can have the exact same thing except cooked. To make the deal even sweeter, someone will also wash your dishes and take out the trash ;). The question 'where is it?', the answer 'Imperial Court restaurant in Richmond'. Well you see, Chowtimes did a post on AKC and listed a whole bunch of Chinese Newspaper ads, and Imperial Court just happens to be the cheapest one @ $10.88/lb. However we we got to the restaurant their sign read $9.99 and with the slogan "Cheapest crab in town" (of course in Chinese that is). Anyways, we were certainly happy with this surprise and ordered ourselves a
Service was phenomenal! They were very attentive and made sure to change our plates often. Good wise I would say it's a little better than what I've had in the states but not that much better. The abalone sauce was a little on the salty side for me.
I notice all the staff here are very friendly. I like the fact that there are Telsa charging stations within walking distance of the restaurant. The quality of the food seems to be fresh and everything we had was tasty. My favorite was their house fried rice. A bit on the pricey side but the theme of the place seems to be an upscale Chinese restaurant( fine dining).
The restaurant overall is clean, but the bathroom and hallway need some attention.
I will likely dine here again if I happen to charge my car in this area.
This review is about their dinner (as opposed to their dim sum, which I have heard is great too). The food and service for dinner were both memorably great. Their baked tapioca dessert, which you have to preorder, was one of the highlights of the night along with the tender and flavorful abalone. The service was attentive and friendly as well. They put up holiday decorations for December, making the dining experience festive. This restaurant is conveniently located beside Richmond Centre as well, so transit and parking are easy to arrange.
Apparently getting a reservation is a good idea... Even on a Thursday morning at 10 am lol. There was a huge crowd of people waiting to get in. They all seemed like locals as well. That said we got lucky and were seated, and boy was it delicious! Loved everything!
We recently moved to the area from NYC, so our standards for authentic Canto dim sum are high. Food is good quality! The environs are clean and classy. We got a reservation for 10am (opening hour) a day ahead of time, and the place was already packed when we arrived. The cons: the menu is a bit smaller than usual, and prices are understandably higher than usual.
Absolutely one of the best dim sum places in Richmond. A little bit pricier than most but definitely still affordable. Make sure to make a reservation and try out the egg tart!
Loved the softness of their steamed short ribs and their beef rice roll.
I have been coming to Kirin restaurant ever since I was a child and I am never ever disappointed by their dim sum.
Their ingredients are always the freshest and are so tasty and flavourful. I would highly recommend their shrimp dumplings as they are so succulent and the dumpling wrap itself is not too thick. As for desserts, their durian mochi and egg tarts are always a must-have and my family always makes sure to save a plate for the end.
The service is always really attentive as well, always making sure to change the plates whenever they get too full.
To anyone who's looking for some of the best dim sum in Metro Vancouver, I would highly recommend Kirin. Make sure to book a reservation as well as they are always busy!
