" Jade Fountain is absolutely the place for dim sum. It’s authentic, priced fairly, and the taste is incredible. I celebrated my birthday there last week, and it couldn't have been better! The waitresses were extraordinarily sweet and the food was divine. We ordered the full range from dumplings to buns, and everything was delicious! The bustling atmosphere made it all the more enjoyable. I do recommend going early to beat the rush, as the line can get long. Overall, a fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Jade Fountain exceeded my expectations regarding authenticity and flavor! The dim sum was a joyful experience, especially the deep-fried taro and shrimp dumplings, which were crispy on the outside and bursting with flavor inside. The server was delightful, quickly taking our orders and turning our table over promptly. The only downside was the long wait for a table during peak hours, which I would suggest reserving ahead of time. The atmosphere is lively, making it an excellent destination for families or groups. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my first time visiting Jade Fountain, and I was looking forward to trying both their dim sum and other dishes. The food overall was quite good, and I had high expectations for the, which I found to be authentic. However, I noticed that the service, unfortunately, missed the mark as I felt somewhat ignored throughout the meal. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated, creating a pleasing setting for a meal with friends. I had heard great things about their dim sum, so I will likely return to give it another go, hoping for a more attentive service. " (*Curated Review*)

" After numerous visits, I can say that Jade Fountain is my favorite dim sum spot in the city. They serve the catalan's best pork dumplings, but what's truly special is the environment they create. The inside feels traditional and adds to the authentic dining experience. I usually don't rush when I dine out, but I felt somewhat hurried during my last visit, which was surprising. I hope that they can find a balance between busy, efficient service and giving diners time to enjoy the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Returning after a long hiatus, I was hoping that Jade Fountain would still hold up its reputation. Unfortunately, the dim sum felt lackluster this time; many options were served cold despite our eager anticipation. The service was definitely a letdown as well; we waited ages for someone to take our order. It’s disheartening because I remember having a much better experience before. At this point, I may explore other dim sum options in the area moving forward. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Jade Fountain after hearing so much about their dim sum. While I could taste the authenticity in the food, the service left much to be desired. I felt overlooked not only by the waitstaff but also by the environment as they pushed past our table. I wish the service matched the quality of the food because it could make this restaurant fantastic! I'd give it another chance but I'll keep my expectations in check. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a dim sum enthusiast, I have been to plenty of places, but Jade Fountain stands out. The variety available captures the essence of what dim sum should be all about - fresh, hot, and flavorful. I loved the dessert dim sum, particularly the egg tarts! My friends and I enjoyed the entire experience. However, I must say the service can sometimes feel a bit rushed, with servers moving around quickly without taking the time to explain the dishes. Despite this, it remains one of my top picks in Victoria for dim sum. I can't wait to go back again! " (*Curated Review*)
