Wonderful food, quick service, generous portions & fair price. The staff was extremely nice, even though the place was busy. Two things sold out or in the verge of being sold out, unfortunately: Tsingtao beer & lajiaoyu (chilly oil), it would be nice to see the restaurant restock them next time :)

If you are looking for a nice Chinese place in China town Montreal, this is the place to go. You might have to wait a bit but believe me it is absolutely worth it. They have a lot of variety to choose from. I personally had the eggplants & the veggies noodles, but I was with friends who had several other plates like the cucumber salad, dumplings, & many more. The food was great, the service was quick & would definitely go back.

Hands down best Szechuan & Hunan cuisine in Montreal. Each dish is so flavourful. Service is also very friendly & helpful. Would recommend the Szechuan chicken bone in & hunan style beef & the green beans. Ugh, just amazing

One of the best Szechuan restaurants in Montreal! Ate here with a friend who was very disappointed at the quality of Szechuan cuisine in this city but this place completely changed her mind.
The Hunan pork belly, cumin lamb & fried eggplants are a must get! Definitely a hidden gem of Montreal & easily one of the best restaurants in Chinatown.
As an American chef I can honestly say this is the best authentic Chinese food I’ve had outside of New York City. In fact, I dare say it’s better than most of the places in NYC. My biggest regret is not coming here with six other people so I could have ordered half the menu. If you’re in town stop here. You won’t be disappointed.
Not sure about hype. Salt & pepper squid was soggy with no hot peppers & no salt. General Tsao chicken needed heat. Super fast service. Fine but certainly not worth the hype.
