This Restaurant has good comfort cantonese food. There are QR codes on the table for ordering. They do have a menu if needed. The service was quick and friendly. Food was good for a quick lunch and arrived timely. The small restaurant is located in a outdoor mall with plenty of parking shared by all the businesses. Will be back to try more dishes.

The ambiance is good, carrying a sense of street food from Southern China. The waiters are fast as they use QR codes for digital ordering. The taste of food is average. The rice pot and black sesame are disappointed.

This review is for delivery order of rice roll. Got the beef & pork chang fen & were very good: silky & thin wrap, beef & pork were both tender & silky, the meat were thinly sliced chunks instead of ground meat. IMO The rice rolls are comparable to Yinji chang feng, Joe's rice roll in flushing, Hei Hei rice roll in Vancouver Richmond, and def better than any dimsum restaurants.

Came here for a quick lunch. Tried their shrimp and youtiao. The chang fen here is cooked all in one sheet and covers the whole dish. As a result, the actual portion of rice pancake is quite generous and it is more solid with more of a bite than other places (where it is more gooey). Their sauce is lighter and less sweet than usual. They don't serve it on the side or with any additional on the table. Super yummy and wish we had more sauce!

Glad to have another great spot for rice noodle rolls in the area! FOOD // Mingkee Deli's rice noodle rolls are thin and silky. Every bite was a delight. Variations we tried: + Shrimp & beef rice noodle roll + Beef brisket rice noodle roll + Chinese donut rice noodle roll + BBQ pork rice noodle roll with egg add on The two porridge that we tried were decent. The Sampan porridge (which we got with preserved egg added in) needed more salt/flavor. The preserved egg & pork porridge had enough saltiness from the pork. We also got the Spareribs Rice Clay Pot, which was decent but not particularly amazing. I did like how much green veggies they included though. Also, we really enjoyed their hot tea, which was richly flavored. SERVICE & AMBIANCE // Casual dining. The inside looked clean and well-maintained. The tables are sufficiently spaced out that it doesn't feel crowded. Service was efficient and helpful. We ordered via the QR code at our table. Overall - the rice noodles are a stand-out here, and I'd definitely come back for those.
