Food Street

70+ delicious restaurants over 3 blocks

Alexandra Road, aka Food Street or Wai Sek Kai, is a three-block stretch, a foodie’s dream. It’s part of the Golden Village, a commercial district in Richmond with a high concentration of Asian shopping malls and stores. Here are a few suggestions to get you started.

Note: If you are visiting during peak hours, save yourself from gridlock during peak hours and take the Canada Line instead of driving and walk from Aberdeen or Lansdowne Station.

Leisure Tea & Coffee
8391 Alexandra Rd #1110
This long-standing bubble tea café serves fresh and creative takes on a range of tea-based—green, red, black, herbal, and milk-based drinks. They also feature East Asian desserts like Japanese cheesecake and baobing, a Taiwanese shaved ice dessert covered in toppings including fruit, jelly, and taro pearls.

G-Men Ramen
8391 Alexandra Rd #1160
Get your ramen on in this thriving, trendy Tokyo-style eatery. From classic ramen with tonkotsu (pork bone broth) to brothless takes with a range of toppings and donburi (rice bowls) with spicy cod roe to chopped octopus.

Claypot Hot Pot & BBQ
8291 Alexandra Rd
This eatery’s unique approach features a three-tiered hot pot ‘tower’ at your table. There are two broths on the bottom, a grill in the middle, and a steaming basket at the top. We love seafood in the broth, meat on the grill, and dumplings in the steamer.
