Review: Hakkasan Place: Hakkasan Location: 110 - 2188 No.5 Rd, Richmond Website: http://www.hakkasan.ca/ Food: Went there for their lunch. Great offerings for lunch specials during the day. They have an "eel burger" special which consists of a really interesting "burger" done with eel and the bun made with Chinese "man tou". I also had a curry pork cutlet rice dish and that once again was really well prepared. The pork was done just right and al dente with the curry sauce complementing the dish really well. Dessert: Fusion style offerings. Geared more towards traditional Chinese desserts. Very light creme brulee. Service: Sweet CBC-looking girl served our table. Very nice, and spoke accented Cantonese. Nothing over the top but generally well serviced during the meal. Atmosphere: Can't say too much about where it's located. I mean, it's on No.5 beside Bridgeport. Inside, however, is totally a different place! You can check out their gallery in the website I posted above. Overall: I'd highly recommend this place for something different to try out. Their food is well prepared and done in a way that usual Cantonese style cooking does not offer in those big "seafood restaurants". Pricings are close to those places, but I'd much rather pay that price to eat at Hakkasan than to eat at those big "seafood restaurants" (i.e. Sun Sui Wah). They also offer "tasting menus". Will probably head back there one day to try those out. I'd give this place 3.5/5 stars ;) |
I go there quite often for lunch as I work close by, and my Gym is just across the street! :) I've also been there for dinner twice. Great food...good service. If you like different dining experiences give it a shot! Lunch is fairly responsibly priced...dinner is a bit fancier, but still worth a try! |
at dinner, it's a little overpriced for what you get imo, but it's a nice place and the service is good. |

they do have some unique things. i've been there many many times for lunch. it's more on a pricy side but it's still doable. i would rate it 8/10 for lunch. they are very very nice and professional so it's good to see. their demographics / target audience are for people like me who have lot of customers aroudn that area but can't take customers to burger king / starbucks. it's location location location. |

I have been there 10+ times and lunch is always very good for their lunch combo. |
I really enjoyed Hakkasan. Went with my family, we ordered the set menu, and it came with quite a lot of food! The atmosphere was nice and modern, the staff were friendly. And the food was really good! Overall it was a pretty good dinner and it was quite a change from the usual chinese food. Haven't been back any other time, but probably gonna try the lunch sometime since everyone's raving about it. |
damn I think ill try it out. I didn't even know there was a reseraunt... my uncle was building fireplaces in that same complex. |
thanks for the review sounds like a great place |
I was just about to post a review of this!!! I ate the B Dinner Menu with my girlfriend few days ago... Including a drink each and tips of tax... it came up to $180 for the two of us The best 2 dishes was the Curried stuffed Whelk.. and the Kobe beef They were simply amazing! Also the Lava cake was done JUST RIGHT!! It was really good All together the meal was amazing, but $180 seems really steep but will go back again also when the bill came, they gave us 2 coupons for Saturday afternoon Lunch good for 10% off Cheers! |
Finally got to try it today. Had the 8 course tasting menu for $39.99/person (have to order one day in advance). Also added the fresh uni fried rice and wok kobe beef. Overall was very impressed with the food and service! Would definitely go again. |
