Landmark Hotpot House Vancouver

Landmark Hotpot House: Vancouver's Original Hong Kong-Style Hot Pot Since the 1980s

Landmark Hotpot House on Cambie Street is Vancouver's original Hong Kong-style hot pot restaurant and a Chinese dining institution that has been running for more than 35 years. It ranked No. 4 on the Chinese Restaurant Awards' first Elite 30 Canada list in 2025, ahead of many far newer and flashier restaurants, and it has won Best Hot Pot from the same awards.

Here's how hot pot works at Landmark and what to order.

About Landmark Hotpot

Landmark was founded by Chef David Li Hon-keung, who immigrated to Vancouver in 1979 and worked in Chinatown before opening the restaurant. Now in his eighties, he still oversees the kitchen.

Landmark is known as much for the quality of its seafood as for its broths. Its kitchen has won Chinese Restaurant Awards signature dish honours, including for salt and pepper Dungeness crab, and it is also a favourite for late-night dining.
