Reviews for John 3:16 Malaysian Delights in Richmond, BC

I came here with friends for dinner. We made a reservation for around 8-10 people. We arrived at around 6-7 and there was a lot... of people. The parking lot has a lot of space for people to park if you arrive early enough. The restaurant seemed really busyeven when eating out was permitted during the pandemic. This is a great sign. Although first time trying this place out coupleof months back, we will be coming back here again to eat the Hainanese chicken with rice among other dishes. Funny story: Iremember two friends looking at the large portions of rice alongside their dish. I think they order something along the rice asit was not separate but actually integrated with bits and pieces of something else. They had to get the takeout container tobring the food home. Maybe prepare for that and expect large portions when you order with your family? Read more

the food we ordered were delicious especially beef rendang was so tender and flavourful. Fried rice was fragrant, dessert... sweetness was just nice. if the coffee is thicker would be perfect. Service was good and place was clean. Read more

One of the best Malaysian restaurants I have been too!!! Food is simply amazing, there's no other way to describe it. Full of... flavours, the food keeps your taste buds satisfied and craving for more. Great menu selection that is clear and direct but morepictures would help deciding on dishes as visual is important. The curries.... just wow absolutely delicious. Service isgreat!!! Fast and friendly and professional. Restaurant is clean. Atmosphere is relaxed but busy busy. Read more

This is Malaysian comfort food at its finest. Flavors were amazing and easy to digest. Spice level was perfect as we opted for... medium spice. The food was very delicious and very filling! Excellent value for our small group of 3 grown and hungry men - weended up extremely full and had a few left overs at the end. The servers were also attentive and friendly. My favorite disheswere the hainanese chicken and the mamak mee goreng. But to be honest I loved them all! I plan on coming back in the future totry their other items. The location was easy to get to and there was plenty of parking space at the back of the restaurant. Therestaurant got busy fairly quickly right when it opened up for it's dinner hours, so I recommend either reserving a table orarriving as soon as it opens. What we ordered (group of 3): - ROTI CANAI (x3) - MAMAK MEE GORENG - BEEF RENDANG - HAINANESECHICKEN (Half Chicken) - HAINANESE CHICKEN RICE (x3) Overall I highly recommend this restaurant if you are craving authenticMalaysian food! ????

Great little place that serves pretty authentic Singapore/Malaysian cuisine. The beef rendang was very tender and generous in... portion. The hainanese chicken rice was legit. We also tried the satay and roti prata, both were good. We also tried the HokkienMee, unfortunately this one wasn't very authentic - the flavor was good but it is not Hokkien Mee, the sauce was kinda dark.Will definitely try the Laksa and other goodies in our next visit. Highly recommended. Read more

Good food and service for lunch. Reserved this place via Google Maps Reserva a Table option and reconfirmed before arrival.... They answered my call pretty quick so good service on that end. The parking lot was pretty big but a large puddle occupied afew spots. I did manage to get a spot though. The dining room was nice and seating was either a small table for 2 or booths forup to 6. Staff were really nice and attentive. We came for the Hainanese Chicken Rice but I liked the sound of Special CurryRice (curried chicken with braised pork belly). The Satay skewers looked good too. We also ordered the stir fried eggplant forthe table which was really tasty. Those sensitive to MSG should take note that I had a slightly dry mouth and felt slightlytired after lunch. So there was probably a small amount in either the curry or the eggplant dishes. The curry came first andamazingly fast (like maybe around 5min)! Then the skewers and then the H Chicken Rice. Eggplant came last but was soon after thelast chicken rice. Would definitely recommend this place for weekday lunch. Although we were there for more than an hour, thatwas mainly our not being quick about ordering and then chatting after eating. Read more

Delicious laksa and item R1. We forgot the real name but it's fried chicken, anchovies, beans with rice. The yam rolls were... sweet but not too full in filling. We had that as an appetizer but I think it could be a dessert too. We were amazed by how muchpeople were ordering to dine in and the same people ordering more to take out. Great service! Read more

Sad their north van location closed but willing to drive for this! Such aromatic flavours and variety of authentic Malaysian... food. Not many places have pie tee but the shells are nice and light and crispy. Must try everything! Read more
