I would like to review the Eastern Pearl seafood restaurant in Port Coquitlam. We ordered a small size of crab and corn soup, shumai, pan fried shrimp and chive dimsum, rice flour roll with prawn and steamed gailan. Soup: It was a huge portion with lots of crab meat in it. It was very well balanced, not salty at all. Very delicious. After 5 helpings of soup, we had half the bowl left to take out.10/10 Dimsum: All dimsum we ordered today were phenomenal. The best dimsum I had in all of Vancouver. The portions were huge, with lots of ingredients in it. They were all seasoned well and not too salty. All of them were 10/10 Service: 5 servers were continuously walking around tables, checking what customers needed. We felt well taken care of. 10/10 Overall: I will revisit here 1000%. Best dimsum restaurant I ever visited. I recommend to everyone.

I gave a try to this place through Uber Eats (had a craving for Dim Sum) and I was very pleased with the result. Everything came well packed and hot. Portions are generous (had left overs for 2 more meals) and tasty. I will definitely order again from here.

I was impressed by the quality and portion sizes of the dim sum pieces. Compared to a couple of other local less expensive dim sum restaurants in Poco/Coq this place has better quality food. I was happy with the size and flavor of the shrimp pieces and the meat dishes as well. It was worth paying more for the quality of the dim sum. We came on a Sunday close to 2:30pm and it wasn't too busy. Service was prompt. Would return again.

We made it just before the lunch rush at noon and only waited about ten minutes for a table of 3. The hostess asked me if I would like Jasmine tea, I said no and asked for Chrysanthemum tea. She didn’t understand me and brought me jasmine anyway but it wasn’t a big deal. We marked off the dim sum we wanted on the paper and the dishes came out relatively quickly considering how busy it was, one at a time. The food was steaming hot and delicious. We had the egg tarts, fried tofu, shrimp rice rolls, beef balls, pan fried prawn and chive dumplings, chicken feet and beef brisket rice rolls in a clay pot. Everything was absolutely delicious, the shrimp rice roll was loaded with prawns! The servers aren’t the friendliest and don’t hide that they’re annoyed when you ask for other things such as hot sauce or a drink. I understand that they’re busy though and I’m there for the food so it’s not a big deal. The hostess also missed one item that I checked off on our order but we were full anyway. Bottom line, yes I would absolutely return for dim sum!

EASTERN PEARL SEAFOOD RESTAURANT is a Chinese Restaurant located on one of the busiest streets, Shaughnessy st, in Port Coquitlam. There are many restaurants and shops in this area. So, people could easy to find this restaurant and park cars. We always passed this restaurant on our way grocery shopping at Safeway. 20200819 My family decided to have a try at this place. Due to COVID 19, we decided to order take out dinner from the Eastern Pearl Seafood Restaurant. We have called in at 4:30 pm. The guy answered the call very fast and very friendly. I have ordered Beijing Duck two courses, Sweet sour pork, and Eggplant in spicy sauce hot pot, plus the duck flame (We always asked for duck bones when we ordered Beijing Duck. It should be free always). After 20 mins, my husband and I drove to the restaurant to pick up our meal. All the dishes have very nice representation even though they are in the to-go box. They all freshly cooked. Beijing Duck – Taste authentic, but only free pieces. I’m glad to ask duck bones, so we can cut off more meat from the bone. It was my mother in law first time having Beijing Duck. She was very enjoying the sweet black sauce too much. Sweet sour pork – One of my husband's favorite Chinese dishes. A Chinese stir-fry dish made with juicy pieces of pork tenderloin, bell peppers, onion, and pineapple. Battered pork gets fried until crispy then tossed in a sweet and tangy sauce. I am not the big sweet fan. But this dish is very tasty and delicious. We have served with our homemade rice that the whole family enjoys. Lastly, my eggplant in spicy sauce hotpot. It’s Cantonese style eggplant casserole. Mom doesn’t really like the tester of the eggplants. My husband and I love this dish so much. The eggplant is grilled until crispy and smoky, and then cooked in a rich savory garlic sauce. This dish is very satisfying, both as a side or a main dish served over rice. The price of the food is not too cheap and reasonable with a large portion. Highly recommended this restaurant to everyone. Hopefully, everything goes back to normal soon. Then, we can definitely dine in at this restaurant. Also, I would like to try its dim sum as well.

This place does not disappoint! It is on the pricier side but the quality of food is worth it. I usually come here with my family, but today I brought my little one out for lunch, and the service was amazing! The staff is always great, very friendly and they care about their customers. They are always good to us whenever we come here. I can't wait to come back! Thank you for the wonderful experience, especially with my little one and I today! You guys went above and beyond, thank you to the servers! great customer service always!

I have been getting deliveries and take outs from this restaurant during Covid-19. Loved the dishes that I tried before and finally dined in for dinner. Food tasted so much better at the restaurant. Affordable price. Large portions. My favourite everyday restaurant. Cons: restaurant was quite busy today and 2-3waitress. We were lucky since it wasn’t busy when we arrived. But later, I saw others had to wait for long time to get serviced.
