So thanks to Netflix and Seth Rogen and David Chang I found this place ! I always wanted to visit Canada and when going to Vancouver was possible I already had this place in mind! It’s in an shopping lot in Richmond area. Plenty of parking but be aware it is busy so chances are you even with a large lot it’ll be packed. The restaurant is big! Way bigger than I had imagined. It was clean and also had a tv panels against one wall to make a jumbo screen! I was pretty impressed by that. Something I’m not use too at an dim sum spot. The restrooms were also decently sized too to match the restaurant Volume. It was quite busy for a Thursday afternoon. Nonetheless, we got to ordering a TON of food. Like enough to where you knock out the first round or two or orders and you are left with a table that looks like no one ate off of it. Wow it was good and fresh and the sizes of the dim sum were larger than what I was use to. Quality wise I think the Asian community that lives here can be proud of this place ! I highly recommend it since it’s set up family style for a good time with the family or friends. The shrimp dumplings and shrimp egg rolls were amongst my favorites ! Make sure to ask for extra soy sauce and condiments ! Service was good! But since they were so busy it was difficult to get the attention of our waiter. It’s probably a good idea to have a laundry list of things for your waiter or waitress to do every time you see them. It’ll make your life easier. I would recommend if you are able to try this place !

Food wise has some of the best Chinese food in Vancouver. Parking here is a little bit better than some of the other Richmond Chinese food restaurants because the parking lot they have allows for more cars and doesn't have a 1 hour time limit in their parking lot. The restaurant is fairly large and we had to wait 20 minutes for a table which was fine cuz it was busy on a Sunday afternoon at around 12:30 p.m. The actual restaurant was very loud so if you need to want to have a quiet dim some lunch or brunch with the tile floor we found that it accentuated the talking noise very much so and it was fairly difficult to hear each other talk during the time we had as dishes pretty much standard dim sum fair. We had to eat har Gow, sui Mai, mushroom & green pea shoots, egg custard tarts, vegetable bean curd, beef noodles, and deep fried milk. The deep fried Mil is a dessert with liquid milk on the inside and battered exterior. It tasted exactly how it sounds, not overly sweet while the egg tarts were also some of the best I've had from a dim sum in some time. We'll come again here as the food is good and we could get a table in Richmond. I'd rate this a 4.5 stars.

Just happened upon Sun Sui Wah for dim sum & considering the amazing experience we had recently @ Wah Lun (see previous post), I have to say Sun Sui Wah has seen better days. We ordered the following: Dried Shrimp & Scallop Rice Rolls - These were so much thinner than the ones I'm used to. There was however a good number of them, the presentation was nice & it was overall tasty. Deep Fried Squid - I've definitely had better elsewhere, most of the pieces were very tough & chewy. Steam Morels w/Shrimp Paste - I was really looking forward to this dish as I've never had it before. It was very underwhelming. The flavour was bland & the morels were cooked beyond recognition. Steamed Beef Balls - I haven't had this in quite a while & I'm sorry I decided to order it here. They didn't pour the usual sauce over it, so again it was bland & just didn't taste like it should. It did come with 4 pieces when usually it comes with 3 & normally that would make me happy, but it made me sad because I really didn't want to finish it, but I don't waste food. That being said service was great & they have pretty good COVID-19 protocols. The fact the restaurant was not busy on a Saturday though should have be a red flag that we were better off going to our usual goto dim sum place in Richmond. C'est la vie. @inspiringfoodie

Whoa genuinely awful food here, gave the both of us dining a huge stomachache. The shrimp 河粉was okay but I do not recommend the beef noodles, pork, or dumplings, it seems like the ingredients have gone downhill since we began visiting this place in 2019. Service was also awful. Chili was extra charge and we had to ask four separate times to get a single serving of hot sauce (I think it contributed to our stomachache). One of the four servers outright told us to ask someone else as they were busy (…?) They charge $0.50 per flimsy container and their tip machine starts at 15%. When I declined to tip on account of the issues with the hot sauce and the quality of the food, the manager asked, “are you new to Canada? Do you know about tipping?” Excuse me…?! Can I decide not to tip as a decision based on the service received? Honestly some horrific internalized racism. We have been here multiple times with many family members but we will never return and will strongly warn others from visiting any Sun Sui Wah Restaurant.

Must try Roasted Squab(燒乳鴿). Dim sum are good. Free parking. I would recommend to make reservation for lunch on weekend. Sun Sui Wah(新瑞華) has been around for decades. It always famous for their Roasted Squab. I can confirm with you that it is still great. It is one of the the best that I even have for a long time. We came for dim sum on weekend and there is line up for table after 12pm. Overall their dum sum are very good. They have special on Roasted Squab for $21 with $50 purchase. It is a must try. We also have Sui Mai(燒賣), Chinese Donut Rice Roll(炸兩), Pan Fried Rice Noodle with Beef(乾炒牛河), Spring Roll(春卷), Taro Dumpling(芋角), Steamed Fish Maw Dumpling with Shrimp Paste(釀魚肚) and other dum sum. All of them are well made and tasty. Their services are similar to other dum sum restaurants. Food serves hot and fast. Price is reasonable.

3rd time here for dinner and always for the king crab. When its just the 4 of us (2 kids), we just order 7-8lb king crab with 1 shark fin soup, and a bottle of white wine. Don't do the noodle, fried rice is much better. Not cheap, $60 CAD/lb, but still cheaper and better than US. They always bring it out for you to inspect it first and I love it. Last time I was here we had a large party so we ordered some other stuff as well. But honestly I don't remember the quality of those as I was fixated on the king crab... lol! Staffs are always friendly and plenty of parking out side. I never have to wait but it was pretty packed this time around. They serve dim sum as well and pretty good too. They have another one in Vancouver but have never tried that location. Most definitely will come back!
