Avery Cafe Restaurant - Richmond

AMAZED! WOW! This place is filled with Disney Magic! There is a self playing real white grand piano that plays the most beautiful relaxing music. The service is amazing, just like Disney castle dining. The decorations, ambiance, details, are all like wow level and makes you feel like you are in a Palace in Versailles complete with a series of paintings with Napoleon. I'm serious! I was highly impressed. I mean, this is literally one of those immersive staycation, vacation experiences. They even had golden water cups! Now the food is also absolutely delicious. The menu is so complete and extensive it covers not only most of the genres of Asian food and western food. To give you an idea, they serve pizzas, poutines, hot pot, cakes, Asian dessert food, steaks, soups, lobsters, fish, etc. They literally serve everything you could want except sushi. Legit! The prices are also super fair! It averages around 15 to 16 dollars for a main which includes a soup and a drink. The portions are very generous too! I tried the baked ox tongue spaghetti and it was superb. There were 3 mini steak size portions of tender and juicy ox tongue on top of perfectly cooked spaghetti with cheese and tomato sauce baked to perfection. Seriously, I have had a lot of baked ox tongue spaghetti and this was the best I've had in the area with the most amount of actual ox tongue meat included with the dish. The vegetable soup was also superb and loaded with fresh vegetables. The fried noodles Avery style was also so tasty and high end chinese restaurant worthy. And dessert? Tried the Lychee Rose thousand layer crepe cake and it was hands down, for real, one of the best tasting cakes I have ever had in my life! It was a taste of fragrance, light, creamy, floral and fruity bliss in my mouth! It was topped with gold leaf and real edible flowers. One of my new favorite restaurants, will definitely be back, and this people is a hidden Gem for sure! What a great discovery!

Lunch with friends. My dreamy decoration. Safe me a trip to Europe to enjoy the unique decoration. Great food, price point and good services. Will go back again.

Staff May and Helen served us well. Food taste good and the "hotpot" style dessert is a must! Priced better than reasonable for the portion. You just have to be patient not in a rush since we were there while full house only one server and one cashier also is the order taker. 0 star to management. How can you not getting enough manpower and give them proper training?

Interesting cafe with some special decoration. There are people just coming in to take selfie photos! Lots of choices of drinks and desserts. Good Hong Kong cafe style food. When I was there, there was only one server looking after every single table. Service was very slow. Also another person working at the drink counter just to make hot drinks. Lol, everyone was ordering hot coffee or milk tea. Yet the dude was just taking his sweet time and not helping out with busing or taking orders. Hope the quality of the food and it's unique decor will keep this place going.

Don’t mistake this cafe as just a regular tea /coffee place. It is a full fledged dinning restaurant. But they do have a huge list of teas to select from. Food menu also has great selection of food items. I didn’t try a-lot of food so can’t comment a-lot except , the interior is beautiful like a fairy tale.

Like the decor of this place which is why I decided to try it, heard their mille cakes are really good, they were so popular it's sold out every time I went to dine in. The food selection and price is great. Lots of fun things for kids to see and take photos of. Will definitely come back!

Dreamy decor from the days when they had afternoon tea here. Great selection of food. Enjoyed the pork hock which came with pasta and salad; you will leave feeling full and satisfied. Service was lacking.

I have an African-style fried chicken for lunch. The chicken is fried meticulously so that it will not be too dry and that the meat juice can be kept. The seasoning on the chicken is well mixed, giving a delightful taste of herbs. The soup is creamy and tastes well. The iced milk tea is silky and not too sweet. The decoration is excellent. What I appreciate most is that their floor is super clean and not greasy. This marks a big difference from conventional HK style cafe. The attendants are polite and patient.
