Aside from the cha siu pork, which was juicy & tender, I would not recommend this if you want authentic Cantonese cuisine. The soy sauce chicken was cold & the skin was slimy. The fried rice was small in size & its taste was reminiscent of Panda Express. Prices were reasonable.

I'm disappointed to post this review as I'd like to support this restaurant & gave it several opportunities to find a customer for life. First off, I would say I visited half a dozen times previously with mixed results including closed without notice, & out of bbq meat by 6pm. My most recent visit will likely be my last try. I rsvp'd (through Instagram & confirmed with the person running their Instagram) for a special dinner offered for Chinese new year. The menu sounded delicious & I invited friends & family to come along. When we arrive, we're informed that they are sold out of all the dishes that were part of the special menu & were not even aware of our reservation. The hostess was very apologetic & offered a slight discount on our meal. We should've walked out because the food that followed was not worth the hassle. More brown gravy than food, more rice than any other component, each dish was a disappointment. Worst example: We ordered eggplant & beef, a pretty traditional Chinese dish. We got 2 pieces of eggplant to share across 6 people, & probably a handful of pieces of beef. Add 2 cups of plain brown gravy & a bowl of rice for $20. I rarely leave bad reviews. But I wouldn't want others to be blindsided like we were.

We went there on a Friday night, around 7h00 pm. I was expecting a big crowd, but it was pleasantly calm to see we didn't have to wait long (less 5 min) to get a table. The waitress was friendly & welcoming. Compared to other asian restaurants in Chinatown, the staff speaks excellent french/english. Decor has pretty cool vibe, mostly inspired from Bruce Lee & other movies/videogames from the 90's. Restaurant was ok in term of cleanliness, I have seen much worse in Chinatown. The menu is not extensive, but has enough items to please most crowds. We were a party of two, & we decide to take a speciality combo : Fried rice + combination of 3 meats (roasted pork, char Siu, & duck). The rice was very tasty, had that charred flavor that only a wok under gas grill can accomplish. A bit greasy (watch out diet followers), but that is to be expected. - Char Siu : very good, the meat was juicy & delicious. Maybe I would have liked a bit more browned/cooked on the exterior, but overall very good. - Roasted pork : the crispy skin is umamic! Meat was juicy, not dried at all. Maybe the best meat of all 3. Wished we had a bit more of this one! - Duck : less crispy skin than the roasted pork but still very good. The meat was slightly dried, but the taste was there. There was also green onion sauce with ginger, & pickled vegetables on the side, which were appreciated. It costs us 20$ + tip, & we have enough food for 2. Probably one of the best value for money in Chinatown. The only downside (& major upside) is that it's located inside a building. Not on Viger street. So you gotta know where to go. Takeout is also possible. Overall, the food was better than most of Chinatown restaurants where I've been, & it has an exceptional value for money. Will certainly go back. Perfect to bring a date, while showing your foodie personality!

My favourite restaurant in Montreal, the value you get for your money is difficult to beat! Love their bbq pork (siu yuk), It comes by default with a delicious scallions sauce. Make sure you order three meat choices if you're really hungry, also some rice on the side, it will still be quite affordable. Ps - there is a relatively affordable parking in the basement of the building.

I had a hard time finding this place but I asked some Chinese kids & they pointed me in the right direction. The young last who greeted me also took my order when I told her what I was looking for & brought my food out to me. Haha I literally only wanted a small portion of the crispy pork belly & char shui over some rice & it was delicious! At to the fact that they were playing Taylor Swift's Red album & I was in heaven! It was a very simple meal that I wanted & got. Also my first meal in Montreal after checking into my hotel. I would recommend! *Sorry about the pic. I always forget to take one before I start eating!

Hits the spot for a particular type of Chinese food craving. Fried rice was better than expected.

Duck fried rice was good & the garlic dumplings were amazing. I have to admit the decor is a little funky & just not my thing but it does not detract from our experience.
