Luk Foo Cantonese Kitchen

I've eaten at different branches of Luk Foo but this one kind of rubbed me the wrong way. We ordered Hakaw, Beef & Wonton Noodle Soup, Salt & Pepper Spareribs, Xiao Long Bao and the Steamed Garlic Fish Fillet w/Eggplant. Everything was going fine until we received the last 2 items of our order. We've eaten at the Shaw Blvd branch of Luk Foo and when we received our fish order it was firm and large portions of tilapia fillets. Different story here as the fish we were served were scrawny and mushy pieces of the infamous "Cream Dory". Disappointing, but not a huge cause for alarm.However, when the XLB arrived, we were surprised to see the soup from the dumplings leaked all over the serving plate in the steamer basket. We both examined the XLB and saw that they were either poorly wrapped or not properly handled during cooking hence the leakage. When we voiced our concern and asked if it could be replaced, our waiter took our plate of XLB away. He promptly came back and told us something along the lines that "this is how it's prepared and/or the steamer had something to do with it".Two things wrong there. #1 Bringing food back to the kitchen and bringing the EXACT SAME dish unaltered is a big no no. It's a way for get food contaminated in the confines of the kitchen. #2 I'm no Chinese food expert but the whole experience of eating a XLB dumpling is to bite into it and have the flavorful broth burst into your mouth and not be sitting there on the plate with your dumplings wading in it. The fact that we were told that this is how it's SUPPOSED to be prepared just made the girlfriend and I feel insulted as we sadly ate our dry and broth-less XLB dumplings.Also, during this whole visit it was really hard to call the attention of the waiters as they seemed really busy with some "important" conversation on the other side of the restaurant. We literally spent about 5-10 minutes of our dinner trying to flag them down or get their attention.End of story: it's our last visit to this Luk Foo.

Food tastes great; malalaki rin ang serving. I just got a bit annoyed that the staff kept taking empty plates and things while we were still eating. Nevertheless, service was swift, food delivered fast, place is neat, worth the price.

The place was very clean. Staff was polite and accomodating. But they should pay a little more attention when the customers are ordering. They forgot the Cold Cuts that we ordered.Food was tasty. Serving size is ok if you are not a heavy eater. The Hot and Sour soup was too sour, I suggest balancing the flavor because I can really taste the overwhelming taste of the vinegar.
