New Chinese restaurant that serves dim sum and fresh seafood.
We came in search of Lucky King, which used to be in this restaurant location. Lucky King was open for less than a year before it changed hands to Spring Garden. At first when we arrived we were confused. It's the right place, but the wrong restaurant? The server came outside to greet us to let us know they changed hands, and handed us a menu. We decided to give it a try.
The service was prompt and friendly with 2 waitresses in the small restaurant.
The decor was identical to Lucky King, so it looks like they simply bought over everything. Everything was clean and the decor was plain but nice.
We ordered a few of our favorites from the Dim Sum menu. Har Gow, Chinese Doughnut wrapped in Rice Noodles, Sticky rice in banana leafs, and Spring Rolls. We were pleasantly surprised that everything was quite tasty and made to order.
Prices were on par with other Dim Sum places you'd find in the area, averaging about $3 per dish. For about $14 including a tip, the 2 of us were happy and full.
Definitely worth a repeat experience.
New Westminster, please welcome this 'new kid on the [12th Street] block'. It replaces "Lucky King Seafood Restaurant", which changed its name and moved to Vancouver.
"Spring Garden" is easily accessible by public transit and my husband & I always find parking in front of, or behind, the restaurant. During our first visit (of what is at least half a dozen visits now) my husband recognized the usual hostess/server from another Chinese restaurant in Burnaby that he frequents too. The familiar face belongs to Janice who is friendly and attentive. She speaks Chinese & English. Her husband is one of the kitchen staff. Sometimes he helps Janice serve customers. He has a big smile and likes to ask how we are enjoying our meals before hurrying back to the kitchen.
My husband & I have tried and were very pleased with "Spring Garden"'s "Hot & Sour Soup", "Congee", "Pan Fried Chive with Shrimp Dumplings", among other dishes. My dessert favorite is "Deep Fried Sesame Seed Flour Balls".
The restaurant is clean & has a bright atmosphere.
