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)

Didn't enjoy dim sum at all. Taste is average. Not too many choices even in weekend. Pork sticky rice wrap was over cooked.

We were one of the only tables here for dinner. Got a few items along with a large fish maw soup & rice on the side. The service took a while for the food to come & brought about one dish at a time. The lobster dish was overly priced for the amount that was given. we sat next to the station & the lady working was banging dishes so loud & clearly didn't care. We always use to come for dimsum & dinner every now & then but lately it seems like the service is going down

Horrendous customer service. Plates & chopsticks came dirty & greasy. Bathrooms were disgusting. Kitchen & dining area were extremely unsanitary. Food wasn't great, nothing special. Waiter who looked like the owner took the order, was inattentive, rude & wouldn't make eye contact. They did not bring water or condiments which we had to ask for. We were disappointed with the overall experience as the food wasn't great & the service was terrible. We paid for the 80$ tab (which was for 3 dishes = ~22$/dish) which was quite expensive for what it was (rice & noodles) & chose not to leave a tip. The lady at the register then began to yell at us saying that we were required to tip & started yelling to call over her coworker & began to threaten us. She said that she was going to charge us separately for the tip & that we had to pay again. She proceeded to make a huge scene calling the owner & continuing to insist that we had to tip when we calmly explained that the tip was optional & would have been more than happy to give one had we have enjoyed the experience. We generally always tip generously but decided not to as the overall experience was really not enjoyable. Would not recommend at all.

Got a bunch of dim sum dishes. Delicious & very filling. Pork dumplings, shrimp & vegetable cakes, lotus Lord sticky rice, stuffed eggplant, scallop dumplings, & bean curd roll were all as described & good portions.
