lobsters!. Peach Farm apparently was exceptional, but it never appeared on my radar for a while until one day when I stumbled upon it with a friend after a heavy night of drinking. The food here is exceptional Chinese fare.

My entire life I had been kind of sketched out by mollusks and crustaceans bathed in various Asian sauces, but as I matured I slowly eased myself towards an acceptance and a liking of it. Peach Farm's lobsters in ginger/scallion sauce were quite probably the last step in my transition towards a full appreciation of it, and I'm glad I went there. We also had some sort of spicy fried calamari dish that was particularly memorable as well.

Quite probably some of the best Chinese food I've had since I've moved up here and very few restaurants can give it a run for its money.

My go to Chinese place. I've been going to Peach Farm for years. How many? More than 10. The place hasnt changed a bit. Still family run and delivering plate after plate of consistently good Chinese food that doesn't skimp on flavor or portions. Though you can order American Chinese staples like General Gau's chicken , Peach Farm truly shines in seafood. Best to ask whats fresh today or try for one of the set menu options in the smaller yellow menu supplement handed out with the larger green menu. Whether it's ginger and scallion lobsters, fresh river prawns, or orange flavor beef, Peach Farm will get it to your table before you finish that first cup of tea.

decent chinese food. typical cantonese restaurant. cheap eats, good quality, reasonable price. reasonably clean place. worth a try. it's well hidden in basement level. you just have to look at their canopy and go down the steps.

Popular Chinatown seafood restaurant serves both the familiar and the bizarre.. In Short
Peach Farm's seafood is impeccably fresh and creatively presented, including steamed scallops on the half shell, with either black-bean or garlic sauce, and steamed jumbo crab with ginger and scallions. Among the more unusual dishes: crispy-fried bean cake stuffed with shrimp paste; spicy, salted soft-shell crab; and stir-fried geoduck with bean sprouts. Adventurous diners must try the sesame-tossed jellyfish with sweet daikon pickles.

I had a toothpick in my food. From what I have been told, this place used to be the best in Chinatown, but it started going downhill with change of staff in 2005. The food was average, until I ended up chewing on a toothpick in my seafood.
