First time ordering from Lum's since I'm in Victoria for the week. I ordered some plain chowmein just chowmein with beansprouts and some spring rolls. I'll start with the chowmein which was good on flavor, a great portion size, but the noodles were slightly too thick for me. Now this is more of a personal preference but I prefer skinnier noodles as its easier to eat. I'm not knocking the dish, just that thick noodles isn't my preference. The spring rolls however, oh dam, they were delicious! Not to mention the low price they are, I should have ordered more. Highly recommend the spring rolls.
This place is great, I ordered typical fair, Pork fried Rice, Chicken Chow Mein, some Ginger fried beef and sweet and sour pork. We had a shell fish allergy in our party and the chef was eager to accommodate and removed the oyster sauce. The people were super kind and grateful everyone behind the counter was working like crazy, Awesome food, worth the price.
We recently got take-out from Lum's and the Chinese food was very good. The portions were fair-sized and the prices were reasonable and affordable. We particularly enjoyed the crispy, ginger-fried-chicken and the house-special chow-mein. My only small quibble is that it would have been nice if there was more chicken in the kung-pow-chicken dish. The kung-pow was mostly veggies and nuts "George likes spicy chicken". Nevertheless, I'd definitely return to Lum's for more Chinese food.
The sweet and sour pork was hard as rock. The chicken was way more breading than actual chicken. The noodles were meh, but not bad. The food could definitely be better, but it could just be that one time. I will come back to give it another chance when I’m in town but for now... 3 stars.
I ordered Chicken Chowmein and Sweet and Sour Pork. Both were ready very quickly as they were having a slow night and were normal sized portions. The chow mein only had about 3 small pieces of chicken and was quite heavily doused in soy sauce but the noodles were good quality and well cooked. The Sweet and Sour Pork was all pork, no vegetables, which was a surprise but not unwelcomed and was quite tasty. My only issue was later that evening I suffered a pretty devastating bowel movement and felt quite painfully sick. This was the only food or drink other than filtered water I had consumed for many hours and would have been the only cause of my upset stomach. It was a shame as this could have been my go to Chinese food place in Victoria but I'm not a fan of restaurants that give me food poisoning.
Great price and generous portions but food lacks flavour. The main flavour was salt. The Szechuan beef I ordered was more like Szechuan green peppers, with no beef in sight. Lums special chowMein has some beef and shrimp on it but they use the tiny micro shrimp. In the end you get what you pay for. These dishes could easily be priced twice as much at a place downtown. The staff is very friendly and kind.
Very tasty food. I won’t eat Chinese food any place else. Decent prices too for the amount of food that you get.Recommended dishesGinger Beef, Chicken Chow Mein
I have been going to Lums for 5+ years and I have never been disappointed. The food is amazing and the chef that works the wok is always consistent with his product he works 7 days a week. Keep up the great work Lums. I’ll be coming back again and again. Thank you!
Quantity 4 stars, Service 4 stars, Quality 2 stars, Flavour ?!?! 0 star... Mixing premade store-bought sauces in a random way that clash... Authenticity 0, there is nothing authentic, or chinese about this. If you're looking for a cheap priced meal, it is ok, but a cheap price comes with cheap quality ingredients, paired with poor flavour profiles.
My wife and I read over some reviews before going to Lums. The reviews were not wrong... amazing food quality, tasty, hot, fairly quick had to wait a bit as they had many orders, and plenty of food! We ordered 2 dinner for ones, and substituted a pork to chicken, which was yummy! We couldn't finish off the portion size! We got to enjoy it again for lunch the next day. I highly suggest checking out Lums! I gave it 5 stars because they deserved it! Well definitely eat there again.
