We were in POCO Wednesday evening and hubby said that his brother gave the place a big thumbs up. I'm going to stop going to restaurants that my brother-in-law recommends.

We weren't extremely hungry so we just had 2 dishes and rice. Prawns in black bean sauce were lacking in flavour. The prawns were so bland and very unappealing. Beef and broccoli was mostly broccoli and not much beef. The beef that was used was a very poor quality beef.

The ambiance is very nice but when I go out to eat the food is number 1 and Wah Wing definitely does not deliver as far as food quality. Service was decent not outstanding. One thing I did find towards the end of our meal while my husband was still eating the waitress came and stood by our table and watched, she then took just a small step away but continued watching us (pressures on to hurry up and eat). As soon as my husband put his chopsticks down she swooped right in and cleared the table. I thought it was really rude especially since there was only one other table there.

There are way better restaurants around. For what we had I felt it was overpriced.

Not recommended.

We have got take out from here a couple of times now. All I can say is the quality and taste of the food here is exceptional. Their spicy wontons in peanut sauce are to die for. Their ginger beef is just as good. Whilst we sat and waited for our take out we did notice we were well attended to. You can't go wrong with this Szechuan food. 10% off your bill if you pick your food up.

My wife and I just came from the Wah Wing Restaurant. We're pretty new to the hood....but one thing we've noticed is that Poco has an abundance of eateries. The wife was craving some Chinese food so we thought we'd try this place out.

The Service was excellent....I am not a Chinese food conneseiur. I ordered a chow mein dish which was not what I had envisioned. When it arrived I explained my ordering error to the server and asked to order another dish (willing to pay for this mistake dish of course). The server was nice about it, explained that we should order this other dish instead, and then took the plate away to return 10 mins later with my vision of a Chow Mein dish.

The food was great, We ordered Sweet and Sour Pork, Hot and Sour Soup, and the Chicken Chow Mein dish modified with soy sauce. Our bill was about $30 and there were enough leftovers for both our lunches tomorrow. The best part.....they didn't charge us for the mistake Chow Mein dish. One thing that stuck out on the bill was my can of Ice Tea which cost $2.75....thats a bit steep for a can of Nestle Ice Tea even if it is lemon flavored and has no preservatives.

The ambiance was surprisingly nice...from the outside you don't think much about this place. Once inside you can appreciate the decor and the mirrors really make this place feel bigger than it is. I've eaten in enough dives to know a good thing when I see it.......it looked very clean, and the staff seemed to genuinely care about our dining experience.

For two people, I would suggest the small offerring of Hot and Sour soup, the bowl was massive and could have easily fed 4-5 people.

I would definitely go back.

I've been to WW a bazillion times with friends who live in PoCo. They have lots of Chinese dining favourites, but some of their best items are the crispy Peking duck, the salt and chili deep fried squid, the spicy pork and eggplant, and their steamed Shanghai dumplings. The place has an eclectic mixture of southern Chinese cuisine, but it all works. They always have tasty tong (soup) of the day and some kind of seafood special.

The ambience is a little nicer than for example Hon's, and they have real tablecloths, etc., but at busy times they use the traditional layers of plastic cloths :). I find the restaurant is reasonably clean. The service is good, and once the servers recognize you, they will suggest dishes you've eaten before.

This is a mostly Chinese family restaurant, but they get a good proportion of gwei-lo diners, and the friendly servers or manager are eager to help if you need menu assistance. Plus the liquor store is next door, so you can buy some beer for later.

Recommended.

Went to Wah Wing years ago (several years ago) and used to order the ginger beef, szechwan beans and shanghai noodles. It was a favorite. Decided to order the exact same thing today and it was as good as i remembered it!

Ginger beef was super lean and not "battery" - very delicious. Spicy green beans were delicious also, with a nice kick but not too spicy, and the shanghai noodles were also very tasty.

We also ordered 2 wonton soups - great flavor!!! Not salty at all and a great ginger flavor in the dumplings!

All three dishes and 2 soups came to $47! Considering how much food you get, that - I think - is a reasonable value!

I would definitely order from there again!!!

I came here for lunch with my mom and her friend.

Tan Tan mien is great. Warm, chewy noodles, a right amount of heat. My mom's friend is Shanghainese and she said it was done right. You have to give it a try for something different! You'll have a lot of soup left over but ask them to pack it for you and now you can mix this with some noodles from t&t.

We also ordered a chicken broth noodle. Loved the broth. Could have been more veggies not so chopped up.

The juicy porkbuns aren't very good... the skin is too thick. Said friend also said she's had food court buns better than this. I bit into it and it was just all wrong...

Ambiance.. well it was a little chilly but the place is nicely decorated.
I can't believe I used to loathe this place as a kid.
bill came to ~18+tips

Definitely not a place to order chow mein or sweet and sour pork though. I haven't tried it but well... there's so many other great things on the menu!

I have dined at this superb Port Coquitlam eating establishment on numerous occasions and it is time to post an update.

I dined here on the evening of 8 August 2008 and the experience was utterly outstanding. The food was as good or better than on any previous visit, which is to say, marvelous. Not only is the food truly outstanding but the consistency of excellence is a thing to behold. I have never had a mediocre dining experience at this restaurant in several years of dining there. The food is flavorful, appropriately and delicately spiced, absolutely fresh, and most savory.

The service is attentive without being solicitous or overbearing. Water glasses are kept filled without fanfare, empty dishes are removed promptly, the proprietor is in attendance asking if everything is to one's satisfaction (which it always is!) and there is a general atmosphere of joviality and satisfaction.

Additionally, the restaurant is appropriately roomy and well decorated, especially since the recent renovation which spruced it up considerably.

Denizens of the greater Coquitlam area are indeed fortunate to have a dining establishment of this caliber in their midst. It surely ranks with the finest Szechuan restaurants in greater Vancouver and I am sure could hold its own with Szechuan eateries anywhere including China.

Kudos to Michael for a job well done!

We wanted to try a new Chinese food restaurant, so we heard some good things about Wah Wing. Boy were those other reviews wrong. We got Sweet and Sour Pork, House Chow Mein and Chicken in Black Bean Sauce. First, the chow mein was soaked in sesame oil, no taste what-so-ever! Second, the sweet and sour pork (usually a staple in Chinese food around here) was chewy and bitter not sweet or sour. Third, the black bean sauce also tasted like sesame oil. How does that happen?!?!

We will never eat here again, 3 strikes and your OUT!!! Oh and the food was fairly expensive too. Just a heads up if you wanted to experiment...

We had dinner here on the weekend for the first time after reading all the positive reviews. The only good thing was the service. Ordered sweet n sour pork and Beef chow mein. This beef was the most flavourless we have ever had anywhere. It tasted like it was boiled, not fried. The sauce lacked any sort of flavour as well. It came with bok choy and mushroom slices. Didn't taste like chinese food at all. We will not return.

good food. going to try the dim sum next time I go. Some of the lunch special items were borderline like the lemon chicken and chicken with cabbage. Lemon chicken, the batter did not seem cooked and the chicken with cabbage dish was too salty. Love the hot and sour soup.
