Cold, not-tasty food with subpar service and poor atmosphere. The sweet and sour pork was mostly batter, the pepper beef was 20% beef, the honey pork was almost all fat and tasted unlike every other honey pork I've had in my life (it was like icing), the rice was dry, the tofu had a weird texture, and the oong choy vegetables were incredibly oily, and all the food was cold at worst and room temperature at best. The cups and cutlery were oily and dusty and we had to wipe them down. The service was subpar with missing cutlery and confusion. The restaurant was also incredibly cold and it made the dishes cool even faster. Overall, it might be the worst Chinese food I've had in a very long time, from a Chinese person.

The food was room temperature, utensils were dirty, cups were oily. Ordered the sweet and sour pork and it was just batter, the black pepper beef was mostly mushroom, the honey pork was all fat and tasted like cake icing (way too sweet). The bucket of rice was barely warm and they had to microwave the soup for us and it was still warm.

Went there this evening, we haven’t been there for a long-time, but we were not disappointed, the food was plentiful and fresh and the service was good. It was well worth the price, we will definitely be going again.

Ordered three dishes and some spring rolls for entree. Spring rolls came up still cold inside — probably were deep fired when they were still frozen. Good portion size for the three dishes. The flavour was ok. The Sichuan twice cooked pork was a bit chewy and had way too much vege but much less pork. Like the complimentary soup they served before the dishes. Environment could have been better. Overall, an ok experience but a bit on the pricey side.

Good food, good price, good friendly staff, No car park outside the shop have to walk to side street but plenty space for a minute walk away..

It was alright. The food was good but the service isnt. Felt like they have never seen a non Canton person walking in the restaurant.
