Gah Lok Dim Sum Ltd

Great place to buy frozen dim sum to enjoy at home. I love their shrimp and garlic spring rolls, and everything else I’ve tried so far is really good too!

Their in-store frozen dim sum & steam buns (pows) is not any cheaper than those sold in Asian grocery stores like in T&T. Though they do carry some special dim sum that's not available in T&T. This is the difference. Anyway the dim sums are produce assembly line in process production style that taste quite different than those in an al carte authentic Cantonese restaurant.

I'm sure their food is good but unfortunately the shop is disorganized and they lost my order. When I went to pick up they tried to assemble my order, most of the products I wanted were either sold out or they couldn't find it in their fridge. Drove a long way to pick up a bulk order and left disappointed.Tried the BBQ pork bun was dry and salty. Garlic shrimp spring rolls were very yummy however!All in all, I will not be returning as there are many other competitors out there.

Great dim sum, wonton and other food. It has stayed the same for almost 30 years.

Gah Lok Dim Sum has been a main stay in our family freezer for decades. I love buying direct from the wholesaler.The dim sum experts in the back are all masters of their craft, having hone their skills, handmaking each dumpling for years.They are a supplier to many supermarkets and restaurants in the Metro Vancouver area.Everything is fantastic here and I love being able to have restaurant quality dim sum in my very home. A personal favourite of mine is the shrimp dumplings and their shrimp siu mai is top tier.

We went to their new location in Richmond, behind Ikea, to get the marinated chicken feet (fong jow), but they had none at that time. Aw! Anyway, we bought their frozen pork soup dumplings (suilongbao) and were able to compare them with the ones we had bought from T&T - same price except T&T included steaming paper and had the dumplings separated in a flat tray; Gah Lok had theirs altogether in a plastic bag. Well, we found a lot of other differences. Gah Lok’s dumplings had thicker wrapping, more meat and less soup. So, T&T dumplings won over theirs. It’s a matter of taste.

They are very old time dim sum makers. They have a good variety of frozen to steam at home. Prices are fair. They also have limited variety and stock of non-msg dim sum. Need to contact ahead of time to order. But at least that is an option.There are many dim sum makers and frozen dim sum sold at T&T.This is a good place if you want to buy in bulk.Their are two locations. The Powell location is ancient, the factory - but the location is kind of run down and need to pay for parking. If you prefer a more safer feeling location with free parking, go to the Richmond branch next to price smart on Ackroyd road. But expect to speak Cantonese only very limited English by old lady and bring cash. It is CASH ONLY. No debit no credit.

Just Great .Came over to buy dim sum as I know Gah Lok always delivers quality product

A hidden place for frozen dim sum. They have lots of varieties to choose from. The quality is on the average side, but it’s not bad for the price.I think their xiao long bao can use a bit of improvement, the wrappers were too thick to what I would call XLB. On the other hand their siu mai is not bad. Great for a quick breakfast, you can steam them from frozen.They only accept cash or e-transfers. So prepare yourself beforehand.
