Review Summary

Reviewers describe Foo Lam Restaurant Maison as a place with a strong contrast between excellent food and uneven service. The menu earns praise for variety, freshness, generous portions, and solid value, with favorites like hot and sour soup, jade tofu, crab maw soup, house specialty fried rice, shrimp in lobster sauce, and Szechuan beef often highlighted. Family dining is a recurring theme, aided by friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere, even when the dining room looks a bit old. Takeout and delivery are seen as reliable for speed and temperature, though several comments mention communication hiccups or rude treatment at the phone or pickup counter. On the downside, some visits report dirtier conditions, a few staff members who come across as unhelpful or stressed, and inconsistent food preparation that seems to depend on the chef. Overall, the consensus points to a solid, affordable option that can deliver great meals for groups or weekday lunches, with dim sum at lunch and much praise for the food despite the varied service experiences.

Great chinese food (variety, fresh, generous portion, quality, nice cooking). Good price. Their crab maw soup, house specialty fried rice, shrimp in lobster sauce, Sechuan beef tasted pretty good.(edit 2026: food preparation is inconsistent, looks like it depends on which chef is on duty)

I was initially apprehensive after reading some negative reviews. However, I decided to give it a try, & I'm so glad I did!

What truly impressed me was the speed at which they prepared the food without sacrificing quality. The first time, I got a hot & sour soup only. A single large portion is more than enough to serve three people. On my first visit, I requested it to be spicy, but I found it to be milder than expected. Undeterred, I returned another time & asked for it to be'very, very spicy,' & that's when I finally hit the mark. It seems they cater to a large customer base that don't eat spicy.

I've only opted for take-out, & each time, the quality has been consistently high-fresh, hot, & ready in no time. My only minor complaint would be the person who answers the phone. Their English can be a bit difficult to understand, which can lead to some confusion when placing an order.

I read reviews & thank goodness i didn't rely on them ! The food was fresh, generous, tasty & most of all everything came out at the same rime !! Our server was super friendly & always there for us. We went on a Sunday for dinner at 5:30pm so it was quiet with 4 other families in the dining room with is. Its in an obscure location & i had a hard time finding. Parking was abundant. I'd go back for sure !!

Hidden gem dim sum restaurant at the marché central, I often go there during the week for lunch. Everything is prepared as you order & arrives at your table very hot. You can taste that they use fresh & quality ingredients. Prices are very affordable compared to other places.
