The main theme of the dim sim "Umami!" Been a long time since I dim sum that it was good enough to remember. This place is expensive though and if your once of those people that prefer quantity over quality, this ISNT the place for you. The flavours came together really well and balanced but the GEM was in the fine details like thin shell of dumplings, right amount of salt to bring the flavours together without being overly salty, durian pastry that melts i. Your mouth. Im inspired to try their dinner set now !
Prince’s Seafood Restaurant has many innovative dim sum dishes. Of particular interest to me were the scallop dumplings which had sweet corn in them and the truffle fungus dumplings. We went in on a Thursday - and found the place PACKED; turns out that if you pay the bill before 11:30am you get 15% off of the bill - which is nice, for the prices are quite steep. Also of note is that they offer several different options for tea.
This place was packed during dinner, and people were waiting for tables throughout the time we dined there. Not surprising as the majority of the food was exceptional. But bear in mind, the quality of the food is matched by the price we paid. It was definitely on the higher side, but in hindsight we didn't need to order the banquet menu and should have went a la carte. However there is no denying that the Alaskan King Crab was out of this world. Thick, juicy, sweet and tender flesh and great flavours. The fried rice was one of the most fragrant and tasty fried rice I have ever had. The only thing we didn't like was the chicken (too dry and lean) and the noodles (too bland).
The service, while very attentive, was not very friendly. We had our plates replaced at least 5 times throughout the meal, but there was nothing approachable about the servers who served us.
值得推薦的溫東茶市
茶市推介:早茶11:30前結賬離座點心85折兼免茶 (六、日及假期除外)
評語:停車場經常爆滿,茶市為免輪候請提早訂座
鄰近溫哥華東區Renfrew Skytrain車站的王子海鮮酒家2005年開業至今已有11年了,在溫哥華中菜飲食的激烈競爭下能維持多年確非易事,何況生意保持很好,特別是茶市更是一位難求,九時半開市還未到十時已經坐滿八成食客。王子的小炒和廣東中山菜色均備受食客讚賞,茶市點心價錢平均會較其他同業貴一點,但仍不乏捧場客。王子於2012年經過全面裝修後煥然一新,更設有三間VIP房方便團體或家庭宴會包場之用。酒家近年積極在茶市點心方面下功夫,加入了不少創新及健康元素,例如使用野菌、五穀、野米、蟲草花等健康養生食材入饌,令人驚喜的「軟心脆皮金燕盞」都值得一試
Not too long ago I had dimsum with Jess and her family at Prince! I've been here previously for dinner but never for dimsum, so I was curious to see how it was. . We had quite a few items but I'll feature a few select items here. We had the Steamed Spareribs which were not bad here. I don't usually go for this dish but I was hungry so I had some. I found them to be mediocre, but not special in any way, and to be honest, Jess' mom makes them better!
Went for dim sum and everything was delicious. The place was packed but we were still served quickly.
Prince is one of the higher-end Dim Sum restaurants. Since I've been to so many different Dim Sum, I don't remember if I have been to Prince or not, upon walking in the place was packed, every table full. It makes sense why I couldn't find parking and I had to park blocks away. I thought we were going to have to wait but there was actually one table in the back. Typical, every time we go Dim Sum we always get the mahjong table, 95% of the time. Why did I even think we were going to get something else?
The menu had Pea tip caviar har gaw and I had to try. To be honest, I never had caviar before and It tasted like cigarettes. The quality and the value was there, making the price of this restaurant not so expensive. Seems like a nice place to bring your parents for a nice lunch.
Higher end Chinese restaurant in Vancouver that is perpetually busy! The dim sum dishes are unique (think truffle and caviar), but delicious. Come early on the weekends to avoid the dim sum rush!
The food was good, I don't mind the price is little bit more. But the only thing we dislike is wait way too long for a table, even I called ahead day before to book a table.
Prince Seafood Restaurant is located right by Renfrew Skytrain and is one of the top Chinese Restaurants in Vancouver. They always draw a crowd for dinner and dim sum. Make sure you have reservations or else you may be out of luck. Crab Meat with Fish Maw Thick Soup 金湯鮮蟹肉魚肚羹 ($20.80) it’s always good to start with soup for a Chinese dinner. My family usually orders this type of soup and it’s very delicious. If you don’t know what fish maw is, it’s the air bladder of a fish that controls its buoyancy. The taste and texture isn’t weird at all.
