Specialty Chicken & Wonton House - Richmond, British Columbia

Entered the restaurant with my vaccination card but the lady worked there said sorry new rules, she had to see my vaccine QR code instead. So fine, as I had this downloaded as well. I then showed her my QR code and she "scanned" it with her eyes and asked ... my id to match that- such high tech! The dinning area was actually quite large and there were only 3 tables of guests. But instead of being placed with a distance with the customers, the waitress decided to put me adjacent to the others, which I did not like. There were 2 people working as waiters, bussing as well as serving the take-out customers. I saw both of them using the same gloved hands handing the food to me right after clearing the other tables! I ordered chili pork chop and fried 4 season beans with 2 bowls of rice, total damage was $28.50. Food was just average. I will go some place else with better conscience about food-safe handling.

I had their Free Range Hainan Chicken Meal with soup and upgraded to yellow oil rice for an extra dollar. The meal cost $15.85 before tips. This place is decent and serves traditional Cantonese food including steamed tilapia and has so many types of chicken available. The presentation was good. The ... soup was delicious with pork bones and meat and tasted very homemade and hearty. The yellow oil rice was soft, fresh and flavorful. The free range Hainan chicken was quite overly salty but otherwise had good flavour and came with some veggies and roasted peanuts. Overall, good chicken and rice but just a bit too salty taking away from the enjoyment of the chicken flavor. Read more

Taste is very good, everything was great and authentic Cantonese style food that you would expect to find in Hong Kong. The price and service was why I gave them 3 stars. They were not very busy the morning we decided to go there and it took almost 45 mins ... before we got our food. I also cant justify paying almost $50 for 4 dishes, especially when the portions were not very large. Great food if you are willing to pay the price, but there are so many restaurants close by that aren't as expensive. Read more

Famous for their chicken, I’ve been wanting to try this place for quite awhile. We ordered their beef and lettuce fried rice, half a soy sauce chicken, and deep fried wantons. Food was very solid over all. I had high hopes for the chicken and it was done quite nicely. The ... texture of the meat has a good bite and flavourful. You can tell it’s a free ranged chicken. It was also poached perfectly, even though they reheated it in the microwave because it’s soy sauce chicken, the meat was not chewy. Due to COVID, they’ve taken good precautions and procedures. Staff and service was very typical of Chinese restaurants. You’ve to grab their attention but they are friendly. I think next time I’ll just got back for their chicken and try the other types of poached chicken. Read more

I Went there for lunch and dinner couple times. I found out that, their weekend chef's cooking and waitress are better than week days. Their portions are getting smaller than before with $17 + per dish. My favorite dishes are soy chicken, mixed chopped seafood on deep fried egg ... tofu, hot & sour soup and honey garlic ribs.
