★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great dim sum place, we came around 3PM with no reservation, it was not very busy. Love everything we ordered other than the spare ribs which was too fatty.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great dim sum place in the heart of Vancouver. Nice and clean restaurant with presentable menu items. Service was good and we got there close to 3PM. We felt a little rushed with ordering which was understandable but then they didn't rush when eating which was nice. There's also not as many options for dim sum but the classics were all there. Siu mai and steamed shrimp dumplings were decent but I really enjoyed the squid ink bun with custard. Overall, a nice restaurant to have dim sum in the city. Would definitely come back.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fantastic food. Great service.
The array of items was something I was not prepared for.
It was a dining and cultural experience!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Warning, reservations need for Sunday Dim Sum. Was walking in the neighborhood deciding on what we should eat and on the spur of the moment decided Dim Sum was going to be my Sunday jam.
Went inside, encountered the front reception staff, oops, "sorry no tables, restaurant full, no reservation, no food" I put on my biggest disappointment frown and threw out my "Thai card", "but I came all the way from Thailand to try out your dim sum"' lol and behold they managed to squeeze me in, great service.
Dim sum was top qualify. Their dan dan noodle soup was especially savory, nice peanut flavoured broth, noodles perfectly cooked al dente.
Har Gao filled with big plump crunchy shrimp, other dim sum dishes just as good. Nice leisurely way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Might be the only dim sum place in DT?
Small seating, but clean and modern interior. Service is okay, food is a bit above average. Most of the clientele is non-Asian here, so food quality should be pretty good for them.
It’s just very convenient for us, no need to drive to Richmond for dim sum.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Delicious food! Enjoyed all the dishes! My favorites would have to be the spare ribs and the calamari. It does get busy but the food is fresh. I will note that the food didn't all come at once and there was waiting time between each dish. Will definitely come again!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Kirin showcases Chinese cuisine in an authentic atmosphere. It has 4 branches in Downtown, West Vancouver, Richmond, & New Westminster.
❗️ If you don’t know authentic Chinese food, whether don’t go there or go with a Chinese friend.
❕So, if you are on yourself there, order many dim sums with different tastes which is a safer option.
? Menu is huge and there are dozens of food there. This high number causes confusion and probably wrong orders.
?? Servers are all surprisingly men. They try to be respectful, yet not that nice.
✅ Kirin is an award-winning restaurant renowned for its dim sums.
Suggestions (Lunch Menu):
* Numbers 1, 14, 15, 16, 17, & 18. They are all generic dim sums with less risk.
* You always have the option to choose different noodles like number 58 (Shanghai style noodle).
? Numbers 33 (steamed pureed egg yolk) & 37 (egg custard tart) are delicious to have as dessert.
Enjoy!?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ While the food was noticeably of a higher quality (with the exception of the spare ribs, which were very fatty) it is also very apparent that some of their staff don’t like their jobs given the attitude and snarky comments we received. As much as I enjoyed the food, I would not return due to the disrespectful service provided.
