Maison Kam Fung draws crowds with authentic Hong Kong style dim sum and a wide range of dishes, offering generous portions and good value that make it a go-to spot for family lunches and group dining. Carts circulate and food can also be ordered directly from staff, which helps some guests get hot dishes quickly, though during peak hours service can feel rushed and some staff appear hurried or not very polite. The ambiance is lively and bustling, with a large dining room and a rotating cart system that adds to the experience, while language barriers and occasional mixed service leave some guests feeling overlooked. Dishes praised include fresh steamed fish, braised eggplant with pork and shrimp, a variety of dumplings, fried lobster, soups, and Cantonese classics with several reviews calling the portions generous and ideal for sharing. The restaurant is described as family friendly and a solid value, though a few reports note longer waits during peak times and occasional inconsistency in the pacing of service or attentiveness, especially during lunch or weekends. Overall, it remains a popular and dependable spot for authentic dim sum and Cantonese cooking in the area, celebrated for its breadth and flavor even as guests hope for smoother, more consistent service.
First time we tried to visit, we arrived with the entire restaurant fully booked for a private event. We tried to call ahead but line was busy…
Second we visited it was around 11.30am on Sunday. The wait was 45mins!!!!!!
Food was 💯 legit. Everything we ordered were authentic . Our favorite was fried shrimp wanton & crispy taro. Push carts service. Some items were lukewarm instead of hot. The century egg porridge was delicious. As well as the fried noodles were also very tasty.
I misunderstood the way the bill was lay out. Unlike in the states where you put the dollar amount you want to tip, in Canada you tip a percentage of the total bill.
I wished I wasn't mixed up.
The service group was very good. Nice ambience & lighting.

Got here right at open at 10am. First food cart didn't roll out of the kitchen till 10:30. It's now 11:15 & half the traditional dishes one would expect to be on offer have not surfaced on any cart. In the first hour here there have been no green vegetables, no turnip cake, no taro dumpling, no steamed bbq pork buns, no crab of any kind. Quite the let down. In all the cities I have had Dimsum the meal is a rapid attack of food & it doesn't need to be a 2 hour dining experience. I requested the items above & the server told would come later. How long must a person be here to have the full dim sum experience? The plus side here is that the food was wonderful.
