Thier wonton soup is the best I've ever had and they come to your table and serve you. Which is a nice touch. The food is great. I've now tried many of the items on the menu and find I like most. Thier authentic this isn't american chinese food. This is actual chinese food which in Langley is amazing.

Decent Chinese food in Langley? I don't really know the Chinese food scene here, because it's not my neighourhood. I assume that the reviews for this place are a bit inflated due to lack of tasty competition. Still, Luxe isn't too bad. I went for Dim Sum, and if you don't know Dim Sum, look out. They'll give you a menu if you don't know how it works, but otherwise they seem content to just bring around a tray and visually offer you various choices. If you don't know the various shrimp bawls, prawn rolls or rice in banana leaf combos, you might not really know what they're showing you. It's not that their giving terribly bad service or aren't understanding, it's more that they except you to know the game and the rules.

The food's pretty good. Standard dimsum fair, maybe a bit better. Rolls came with a strange vinager sauce that didn't compliment it well. Banana leaf rice and beef was delicious.

Valuewise, it's fairly good. I had a tonne of food over two people, and we only paid 30 after tip. I suppose if you're in Langley and feeling like Chinese, this isn't a bad spot. It certainly isn't "Westernized" if that kind of thing scares you, and the location is clean, the staff is alright, and the dimsum is good. If I'm in the area again and craving Chinese, I may try their dinner menu. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to go back however; there are equally good options closer to home.

When they first opened, I actually bragged to my friends that there is actually a restaurant out in the burbs with good, authentic Chinese food. After a couple of years, I have gone back for a visit and it has certainly changed! The food tastes no better than what you get at a fast food joint and the portion size is so small for what you pay! I think the positive reviews have gone to their heads and let them think they have the right to rip us off! I will never return as there are now other restaurants nearby with better food and value. Hopefully, Luxe will realize that they now have competition and will work on improving their quality and value!

Tried out this restaurant on the dinehere.ca recommendations. It is a winner. Had the set dinner for 8. Crispy skin chicken was overcooked and the beef with black bean sauce was a little tough but everything else was excellent. Included in the dinner was a lobster and crab with noodle dish that was great. Whenever our side plates had shells in them they were replaced. From talking with the owner/manager we learned this restaurant has been in business for a year and a half. Dining area is quite nice but the restroom looks old and probably left over from a previous establishment. Will I be back? Anytime by brother-in-law Jerome wants to pay I will make the drive from Burnaby.

When I was introduced to this restaurant, I was relieved that I did not have to drive out to Vancouver or Richmond for decent Chinese food. I have been a regular customer for a few months now for dim sum, and look forward to coming in for dinner when the time is right.

The place is neatly decorated, giving the restaurant a sophisticated and authentic feel to it.

The food is not outstanding, as I suspect that some of the dishes were not made freshly in the kitchen (as opposed buying them frozen from a supplier and steaming them). But as I have tried all the dim sum dishes, I can say it is decent. This place can satisfy my dim sum cravings.

The price for dim sum is a little bit above average, but I'm fine with that, as long as the food, service and fact that I don't have to drive so far, is in tact.

Although I see mainly the same employees every time I am there, I feel that the service is a little bit inconsistent. It may be my imagination but I feel that the staff is less attentive and friendly if I enter in a big t-shirt, sweats and no make up. Today I walked in dressed rather professionally, and received really good service.

Finally got a chance to return for dim sum and I was not at all dissapointed. We were seated quickly and served right away. The food was hot and delicious. So many items to choose from, and the servers were constantly circulating with carts and trays fresh from the kitchen. They kept the tea topped up without being asked to, we really liked this.
I especially loved the pork pastries, flaky and tender with a slightly sweet filling, mmmm.......
Price was not too steep for 2 of us, we had 6 plates/baskets for $30.00 and even took home leftovers.

We went there for lunch. The deco is very nice, but we went for food. The dim sum did not taste fresh; we could tell that they were reheated -- the texture of the dumpling was mushy. We have tried dim sum all over the greater Vancouver area, and this place simply fails in comparison in taste and value to other good, authentic dim sum places in Vancouver or Richmond. The choices of dim sum are few and the dim sum is definitely over-priced.

They served us tea and charged us 80 cents per person, without even asking us what kind of tea that we want. Traditionally, for dim sum, we are supposed to choose the type of tea if we are paying for it. The service was okay, average -- we did not feel welcomed but the servers were responsive when we needed help.

It is too bad that there is no dim sum competition nearby, and maybe this is why they can still survive without striving for a better food quality and value. If you are willing to settle for mediocre dim sum and pay a premium for it, this is the place. Otherwise, it is worthwhile to drive out to Vancouver/Richmond for some real dim sum treat with the same price or less expensive.

First of all, I read all the reviews.We came here one evening for dinner. The restaurant was so cold and so noisy for there were kids running around with no supervision from their parents. Not restaurant fault I know.
We ordered the usual dishes like peking duck, appetizer combo,scallops with vegetables,crispy chicken,and more. We were not impressed with the dishes.Peking duck was so so, appetizer came to us in the middle of the meal, doesn;t it usually come at the beginning of the meal. The scallops were very small portion (not even to go around for our table of 8),chicken was over cooked and very dry. The soup was the only decent thing that we ordered. No "wok hay" as one mentioned.
The service wasn't great even.
We have been several times before. It was never my favorite restaurant but there is nothing around this area half decent. It never got any better. so why it is so popular? Every body must have different taste buds or was is a bad night again.
Dim is also very pricy for what you get.
No more for this place for me...

This place has become a family favourite. My 11-year old just requested it for her birthday dinner, and I was only too happy to oblige. Everything we've had here has been SOOOOOO much better than any other Chinese place in the area. The flavours are well blended, the rice is aromatic, the tea is plentiful and the portions are huge! Usually we get at least some extra lunches out of a visit there, so the higher-than-average prices are easily justified.

Service one time was a little slow, but in all of our recent visits it has been prompt and friendly. Food comes out as it is cooked -- some things very quickly, others slower -- so plan to share your dishes. It's a pleasant-looking place inside, nicely decorated, but basically one big open dining room, with a large party room attached. If it's crowded, it could be noisy, but it's never been very crowded when we've gone.

We went to Luxe today with a party of seven. We were seated promptly and the waiters were very nice. Complimentary tea was given to us at the beginning, so we sat down and relaxed while waiting to order. We ordered several dishes to share and the dishes came one after another. The first dish that came was pork, and I am a vegetarian, but I felt that since I am reviewing, I should try it. The pork was delicious and was gone pretty quickly. After the pork game the prawns with black beans and vegetables. What the menu should have said was vegetables with prawns and black beans because there was a mountain of veggies with some prawns and a little beans. The vegetables were great. The sauce tasted really good and it was very enjoyable. We ordered the prawns stir-fried instead of deep-fried and I regret it. Although, they were good, the prawns would have tasted better deep fried. When I first saw the dish, I thought the prawns were cauliflower because of the shape. I am a non-strict vegetarian, so I took place in the fish eating. After, the prawns, a dish came with vegetables, squid, and shrimp, scallops. The shrimp was good, the squid was okay, and I don't even think the scallops were there. The vegetables were different types from the ones in the previous dish, so they tasted different. After, the seafood dish, we had sweet and sour pork. It was good even though I only had one piece because I am a vegetarian. During all this food, the waiters were really nice. We seemed to have three waiters all focused on our table. They were great and they told jokes. Anyway, we finished off the dinner with chowmein, rice, and a hot and sour soup for myself. The soup was loaded with shrimp and all kinds of things, but the broth tasted funny so I only took a couple of bites. We ordered the chowmein crunchy and that was a mistake because nobody liked it. The rice was so good though because it had egg and vegetables and it was so fresh. All the stuff that I just said was basically our dinner
After the dinner, the waiter surprised me by giving me some cookies and deserts with a birthday candle in it. After all it was my birthday, so I blew out my candle graciously and ate the cookies with some of the complimentary tea. I was very surprised at the service and ambiance. It is a hole in the wall of the outside but beutiful on the inside. The service was great too. Overall, I liked parts of this dinner and didn't like parts. Some dishes were 4/5 and some were 2/5. Also, there was some pretty weird things on the menu like the shark fin soup which I was not daring enough to try. So, in the end, I would reccomend this restaurant to people who are willing to spend money on things that they are not sure that they will like. I liked this restaurant because it was SUPER FRESH and very authentic. Luxe has to be the freshest chinese food that I have ever tasted.
