An amazing Expierence. Staff extremely friendly & very welcoming. Great at suggesting good options. The food was quick & tastes outstanding by far the best Chinese food I have had in a long time. Incredibly fresh. I highly recommend to anyone looking a great meal. It was not too expensive & the portions were a good size.
Highly recommended! The flavor profile here is incredible. What impressed me most was the contrast of flavors; you can really taste the distinct notes in every bite. It's a perfect balance that makes the whole experience stand out. If you're looking for something authentic & packed with flavor, this is the place!
The food was delicious & the service was excellent. The servers were very friendly & worked hard to accommodate our group of ten on short notice. Highly recommend stopping here if you're looking for a bite in Chinatown.
I came all the way from Nova Scotia & had one of the best meals here. The portions were generous, & while the prices felt a little on the higher side, the food was absolutely worth it. I especially loved the fish dishes. They were so flavorful, & I haven't found anything else quite like them since. I still crave them! I also tried Soju for the first time, which made the experience even more special. Highly recommend this place.

We ordered delivery to our hotel from Chez Chili. We got the ginger scallion chicken, pork meatballs, & green bean with minced pork. All the dishes were excellent. Totally satisfied our craving for Chinese food. Authentic & affordable. Highly recommend!
I was genuinely impressed by the level of service at this restaurant. Despite arriving just before closing time, the staff welcomed us warmly & never made us feel rushed. They were incredibly patient, allowing us to enjoy our meal at a comfortable pace. Even after closing hours had passed, they continued to refill our water & check in on us with a smile. It's rare to find a place that balances efficiency with such genuine hospitality.
Highly recommended for both the food & the exceptional service!
