I'm surprised no one has mentioned Lucky Gate.... I don't like chinese food, but this is the authentic stuff.... szechuwan food. Most amazing chinese food I've ever had in my life. I can't tell you enough how great their food is. From hot and sour soup, to the pork pancakes, and spicy beef... you need to try it for yourself. So so good.
1139 Austin Ave Coquitlam
Also, Kirin Seafood Restaurant has great dim sum. It's pretty pricey, but to be honest I don't really remember their food... just the egg tarts. I live for their egg tarts. They only make them on occasion but I've never had a better egg tart.
I just had a look at their website and it looks like the Coquitlam location is closed but there are 4 other locations to visit. Closest one to Coq is in New West at the Starlight.
