Hao's Lamb Restaurant — Restaurant in Richmond

Hao’s Lamb Restaurant is Chinese Cuisine. My dad's friend's family invited us for the Christmas dinner at this restaurant this year. It was our first time having Chinese food for Christmas in Canada. It was such a great experience having food with a group of people during the holiday.

Location Hao’s Lamb Restaurant is located in Richmond McKimWay and Garden City. Because of the location, there are so many Chinese people having lunch and dinner at this place every day.

Interior Design Hao’s Lamb Restaurant is a traditional Chinese restaurant. Everything inside the restaurant looks very traditional. Tableware, decorations, table setting are all traditional Chinese style looking. Mainly blue and white ceramics. Inside the restaurant, it’s medium size. As soon as people sat down, you will feel that this place is so crowd.

Food Hao’s lamb is famous at its nicely cooked fried lamb, lamb shanks and soup. We have ordered lots of food. For example, Sautéed Spicy Mutton: Roasted dry chili peppers, fresh scallions, Szechuan peppercorn, and the mountain of delicate, bone-in lamb meat. Mutton Soup: it has slices of lamb and vegetables inside. The lamb broth was flavourful. Hap’s Stir-Fried Cauliflower: crisp and flavored with bacon. House Special Eggplant: one of my favorite dishes. Asian eggplants cooked with chili heat and vibrant green cilantro. Besides, we also had, Pan-fried Trip, Stir-fried potato, Chile beef appetizer, Mutton and fish dumplings, and etc. We had ordered more than 15 dishes for dinner. The taste of the food was awesome.

Price The price of food is not expensive. Mostly the dishes in this restaurant are around $15 - $20 dollars. But, some of them, such as Roasted Lamb leg or New Zealand Lamb Ribs are over $50. It’s just right for the amount of food they serve. One bad thing about this place is that the servers are not very friendly. The servers who served us is the owner of the restaurant. They are not very friendly. By 7:30 pm, you haven’t finished your food, they will let you go. So...

A restaurant I'm glad I went to. I went by myself. Had a chow Mein and steamed rice dish. The chow mein was a non North America chow mein. It was a spice I wasn't use to. I wish I was with larger group. They had dishes on the menu that were 50 to 80 bucks. Theses could feed a group of 5 to 6 adults easy. I went there about 4:30. There were about 4 families of about 5 to 8 people at each table. For the larger tables theres a lazy Susan on the table. Having a bunch of dishes on a lazy Susan is great. The lazy Susan brings back fond memories of eating Chinese food with my family. The dishes at other tables looked delicious. The restaurant is very spacious. Service is great, the food took a little long but the restaurant is nice inside I didn't mind. If you went there with 5 other people, you could have awesome meal there, with nice pork chops, seafood, some other Chinese dishes, some drinks for under 300 for the table. My recommendation to the restaurant is to have some standard north america Chinese dishes on the menu. In closing I appreciate that even through my bill was under 20 bucks and there were other tables order much more than me, I still had three servers checking to see how I was doing, taking my...

I love lamb and this restaurant certainly knows how to cook their lamb. Our entire dinner was lamb cooked a dozen different ways and all of it was delicious. Due to dietary restrictions, I couldn't try all of the options available, but there were ribs, stew, chops, spicy, braised, hot pot, shank, etc. Every dish I tried was fantastic, even if I'm biased.

Service wasn't that great. The owner was there and she was lovely, but some of her staff were quite slow to serve. At one point, our tea pot disappeared and never came back, no matter how many times we asked. We tried to order beers and soda and those orders got confused as well.

The restaurant was a very basic Chinese family-style restaurant, not very classy, a little rundown. This type of restaurant is very familiar in Hong Kong or Chinatown. The chairs were so soft that I think most of the seat cushions are broken, as I sunk a good 3-4 inches into the cushion when I sat down.

Parking isn't too much of a problem, as is usually the case in Richmond, because the restaurant is attached to a multi-level parking lot. I've been told that the lot can fill up quickly, but no one in my party had trouble finding parking, and there...
