Reviews of Kan Yon Restaurant and Tea Shop (Fish Shop)

Adrian Mandy

The staff here were friendly, other than that this place had no redeeming qualities. The food was probably the most tasteless and bland of all the "Canadian and Chinese Cuisine" greasy spoons I've been to that every small town across Canada seems to have. I gave this place a chance based on the many good reviews it had. I can't explain the good reviews except that the reviewers must not live in a city like Vancouver with exceptional Chinese food to compare it to. If you do decide to eat here, get a burger!

When all the other large restaurants are closed or crazy busy in Hope this restaurant is a secret haven. Generous portions of simple tasty food. Good prices and nice family staff. Interestingly they have a small portion set aside as a tea shop with over a hundred varietys of loose tea and tea accessories.

Greg Proudman

Never disappointed, and I go there fairly often.

Kevin and family are the best!

Libby Kirkland

4.5 stars really. First time eating here since the old owners came back after a few years to serve up their Hope-famous Chinese food. Rice, vege chow mein prawns, chop suey, and egg rolls lived up to the legend I had heard about. Glad they are back and haved fixed up the dining room after the last owners made a mess of things.

Food is always hot and tasty

Andrew Elliott

Get the "More Wanton"! It's delicious!!! BBQ Beef, Shrimp, Celery, Carrot, Green Onion, a delicious broth, cauliflower, broccoli, and delectable wantons! A big portion, too, for a very fair price! Served to me nice and hot, fully cooked in only ten minutes! I'm glad I decided to check out Kan Yon today!!! 5 stars!!!

Ray Chernoff

Ross Ferguson

Lee Ross Edmund

Awesome food.. very nice owners and the seafood is fresh.. my wife and I enjoyed every bite ????

Leah Moser

Very good food and large portions

Domanic Charlie-Francis

Sweet and sour sauce was orange ish yellow? Tasted fine though, the spring roll was like curry or something? Not my favorite, but the chow mein was pretty good. They even let me use the dine in menu so it was cheaper than the dinner menu they showed me first. Very friendly

Lorrie Berg

She forgot my fortune cookies I specifically asked for.

(Translated) Hope is a small town. On the way to the Rocky Mountains, lunch is stopped here. I didn't find any restaurants on the road until I found this one! !! The clerk was pretty nice, ordered "Curry chicken with rice", and the taste was okay. The only small suggestion is that there are too many vegetables in the curry. I hope the meat can be more delicious! !! !! (Original) Hope 是ㄧ個小城鎮，前往洛磯山的途中，在此中停用午餐，ㄧ直在路上沒有找到什麼餐廳，直到發現了這家????????！！ 店員蠻nice的????，點了「Curry chicken with rice」，味道還可以，唯一的小建議是咖哩裡面的蔬菜有點太多了，希望肉可以多ㄧ點！！！

Kev and the fam bring the yum yum here at the Kan. Glad to have it back!

First time. It tastes great????????????????????????????

Jackie Boucher

The food was edible but bland. Think 1950s cuisine. The service was very good but the bathroom lacked TP and the floor was disturbingly sticky.

Lee E

BBQ Beef wonton is delicious!!!

Kyle Anderson

Wow so good we had it about a month ago and it was really bad but amazing this time round keep up the great work !

Rob Feeny

They are only open for take out at the moment but the friendly proprietor hooked us up with a 'dinner for 2' that could have fed 4-5 people for a reasonable price.

Vanessa Nellis

Buffet on the weekend is very good. However there is NO TIP option on the debit machine, be sure to have cash for your server.

Chad Toop

A lot of grease, little flavor and over priced.

Michelle Stephens

Great food one of 2 and the best in hope. Sweet n sour comes in either a yellow or traditional red sauce mm good.

Eric

Kind owner gave me a full 5 minutes of his time explaining where I could visit in hope and handing me magazines. I wasn't expecting Hope to have good bbq duck - but it was decent! Enjoyed my meal and will come back.

Sierra Sheers

Amazing food! It was my first time trying War Wonton soup and I definitely have a new favourite! Never disappointed with service either!

Tim Conrad

Beauty By Eija Tobeautifyyou

This is good Chinese food with large portions , we’re going to make this our favorite takeout!

robert luchene

My wife is Chinese and wanted to eat some Chinese food on our two night vacation in Hope so we went to Kan Yon for dinner on our last night. The owner of the restaurant came to take our order, ordered some dish's not on the menu and the food was great the pot of tea you get with your meal was so good we asked for a second pot and ended up buying a package of the tea from him since part of the restaurant is a tea house. We talked to the owner for some time, he's very friendly, the restaurant was opened by his grandfather and has been in the family for more than 40 years. Would definitely go back if we get to hope again.

Robert Vogt

Always like trying the small town Chinese Food and Kan Yon did not disappoint. The Wor Wonton is very good, the honey garlic pork, chow mein, chop suey. Not as good as home but still excellent.

john martin

Good service

Joy Jeffery

Thank you for the amazing service and Yummy food!!!

sanjeshni singh

I found their food to be very bland!! I was also surprised that their large soup and rice was actually really small, 2-3 servings only compared to the usual 8-10 servings in other Chinese restaurants

Funky Geode

Wasnt an enjoyable meal! The noodles was basically mr noodles packs, It for sure wasnt sweet and sour sauce and the “chicken” was questionable.

Richard Roles

Excellent food and portions for a great price!

Mustafa Akhtary

Warning - Food made very cheaply. Skimp and save as much as possible. For example, big portions of rice but very little chicken and egg. Same with Chow mein, lots of noodles but very little chicken. Other items were very similar, very small amount of shrimp in the chop Suey. Lemon Grass chicken was average at best. Prices are high for such poor quality food. On top of that, the soap dispensers in the washrooms are watered down soap. So you can't even wash your hands properly. Don't waste your money!

David

This is the place to eat for Chinese food in Hope B.C. and the weekend buffet all you can eat is great variety tasty dishes lots of fresh hot food. More meat than batter veggies ate done perfectly Dinner for one depends who is cooking as to the amount you get it can be less or more on different days that why I went down a star !

Aaron R

Delicious wonton soup

Arthur Jin

Fiush & chip (fish & chips) and more Canadian dishes and Chinese dishes. Decent chow mein. Warning: these guys use dish soap for handwashing.

Chaminda J.

Due to Covid-19 protocols in place and takeout only. Good portions. They have packed the takeouts with extra paper plates and other cutlery. you can walk to the near by park use the park benches to eat the food.

D.K

You Lose Go Cry

Best Chinese food in Hope BC. War Wonton soup was Great!

Julia Polanco

This is actually the worst Chinese restaurant I've ever been to. The food is not tasty, not fresh, not nothing...

Yvr Foodie

Stopped by with friends from a roadtrip to Kelowna. Huuuge portion wor wonton and they even have poutine too! Poutine portion was massive and gravy was definitely made from scratch and not the Knorr packaged powder. It's a small town and I can tell the locals love the place. Kevin the owner is just very accommodating and friendly. Thank you for the quick bite for the road! :)

Kerry Burgher

Good food. Pleasant staff. Great prices.

Arnie Kuchar

Don't know why????

(Translated) I didn't dare to go in at first, but after I went in, the food was cheap, the waiters were kind and the Chinese food was delicious. Recommend (Original) 一開始看外觀不敢進去，但進去後餐點平價，服務員親切，中餐美味 推薦

Dale Johnnie

Great family friendly Retaurant. Foods good . Fast service

Corinna Oh

July 13, 2019. The worst Chinese food I have ever had in my life. Got the dinner for 3. Rice looked like it was reheat or fried. All broken and kinda soggy. All dishes were flavorless. Small portions too. Would never recommend.

chris mckinnon

The one piece cod fish and chips was delicious

Monica Parker

We ordered a dinner for to and got rice , chicken chow main with sweet and sour. Very little veggie and chicken or two starches and one meat. Terrible flavour of food but good service. Would not recommend to others!

Taylor Smith

Best Chinese food in the area. Great service. Love this place.

Darcy Carlson

When u go to a restaurant i look at a few things, and this place will become a nice stop to show people as im traveling or working near again. I look at the service, food, price and atmosphere and it did really well to my standards. The Service was fair for speed but great for interaction, it was about 6:45-7:25 when i was there and was 1 server but was very quick on his feet and was welcoming to everyone. The Food was great and was also amazing for the price-to-serving ratio, ended up with having lunch decided for next day. The Atmosphere was welcoming and simple, what would be your average local restaurant. It exceeded my expatations when i was finished, i would recommend visiting this place if you are in the area.

Zed Wells

Not even worth one star

Michael Vanzandwyk

Barbecue duck is amazing! Great service and the combos are well priced.

Fraser Hollmann

Great food and great people!

dave lincoln

Gross greasy muck, I'd dumpster dive before I ever ate there again. I live in town and I've tried it 3 times hoping it was just an off day for them. Nice people, but nice doesn't cut it when you pay good money for such low quality food.

Sandra Wouters

decent food at a decent price, not top notch like in Vancouver Chinese restaurant but not super expensive either and definitely palatable

Rich Smith

must have new owners very bland food noodles were hard we have been stopping there for years and the food was always awesome totally different now will not be going back 2 days ago

m wiens

kghope

Good food!

julie bosman

Good wonton

B E

The food here is amazing! The chicken balls were the best I ever had as they are not covered with a thick batter. Very flavourful food and would highly recommend. Plus the people there are so nice and kind.Thank you for a great food experience

Mac Placido

It's OK but they use too much oil.

Alec Mclaren

The same quality for the last 30 plus years. Excellent. Egg roll and chicken chow mein rule but the rest of the menu is good also.

Karen Alex

For me food is hit or miss.

Griffin Blue

Delicious food at a delicious price.

Brent Babcock

I stopped in for a dinner combo. It was terrible. Chow main was brutal. There were 6 pieces of pork and was mostly batter. Absolutely do not go there.

Mo flo

Good food, family establishment!

T Florence

Great food

Kailen Denam

Excellent tea shop one of the best in the Fraser Valley. At least a hundred flavors of green Rooibos and white tea as well as a large selection of herbal. Owner is very friendly and knowledgeable.

Caroline Credico

Fresh and delicious food here. Cozy place.

Island Don

What charming, simple and pleasant surprise this tiny restaurant was! This is NOT a fancily decorated eatery with golden Buddhas, hanging tassled lamps and ornate Chinese screens. What it is, it's a 50's something diner converted by adding Chinese food to the Canadian menu. We had battered excellent shrimp appetizers, Chinese Noodle Soup with BBQ pork for starters. BIG portions right off the bat told us there would be take home at the end of this meal! Next we enjoyed pork fried rice and rice noodles with BBQ pork. Both were delicious. Our charming waitress was low key, but attentive. In other words, perfect! The price was reasonable, especially when we left after lunch with dinner in hand!????

Casondra Murphy

Great Smorgasbord and wonderful service, very friendly.

Roni Romy

Not recommended, food was not good at all service is good though

Christine Hooper

Ordered dinner for 3, was plenty of food for the 5 of us. The ginger beef had such good ginger flavor. The chop suey reminded me of the good chop suey I had when I was younger. Tasty!!!!!!!!!

Kelly Dunn

The food is alright, and the prices are fair for the large portions you get. Service was good and fast. We got the dinner for 2 and could barely eat half of it so we had lots of leftovers to take home. My only complaint was the dinner for 1 options, im not a big fan of sweet and sour pork at any chinese resturaunt and litterally every option had some kind of variant of it or you can pay 2 bucks to swap something out. But other than that it was a decent place and i would go back again.

clay mcmullen

We drive in from Abbotsford to get some rolling pin treats and we stopped here...The food is spot on and the owner is super nice..He always offer tea while we wait for out take out... Love there chicken fried rice...We will make this out new take out place for Chinese !

Troy Peters

Great Food when I was younger still awesome ????

Wayne Kelley

Food was ok as was the price but not stellar

Shura

(Translated) I ordered fried rice and wonton soup, all of which are above the standard, the owner is very kind, and there are even discounts for takeout cash checkout, very recommended (Original) 點了炒飯，餛飩湯，都在水準之上，老闆很親切，外帶用現金結帳甚至還有折扣，非常推薦

Raymond Chernoff
