Nous sommes revenus pour une 3e fois ; nous avions aimé la nourriture qui est vraiment bonne ! pour celà , je donne 5 étoiles . Les 2 dernières fois nous avons été très bien servis ; par contre, cette fois & malheureusement la dernière ! nous n'avons pas senti cette belle courtoisie du début.... Après avoir consommé à 2 pour une somme bien ronde de près de 80$ , avec un 15% de pourboire , le serveur qui nous a servi ne nous a même pas remercié ni dit au revoir . C'est inconcevable & fort impoli ! Dommage on aimait revenir , & cette attitude nous a vraiment déçus. Ils ont perdu 2 bons clients !
Nous sommes allés à ce restaurant à quelques reprises. La nourriture y est toujours vraiment délicieuse. Cependant, le service est toujours long & peu courtois.
Malgré la qualité de la nourriture, j'accorde un deux pour le service car à notre dernière visite, les employés ce sont attablés 30 minutes avant la fermeture du restaurant & l'un d'eux fumait à proximité de nous pendant que nous mangions. Étant accompagné d'une personne asmathique, j'en ai parlé à mon serveur attablé auprès du fumeur. Il a simplement nié ce dont nous avions été témoin.
Dirty, the place smells really bad, we couldn't use the washroom because of the smell. It was very cold in the restaurant,we had to wear jackets while eating. & the food was discussing, the worst experience ever.

Gardez votre argent!!!
Patron CHEAP & aucun service à clientèle. Refus de compenser pour le temps d'attente.
J'ai appeler à deux prises pour me faire rassurée que la commande était parti alors que c'était faux.
Plus jamais !
Very Disappointed with the Service, took 45 minutes to get seated & another hour to have our order taken. Noticed that two couples that were behind us in line were served before us, the waiter actually came back to the table to ask us what we had ordered When our meal finally arrived, It had shrimp mixed with the rice, this could have been disastrous if someone had an allergy.
Food was Average, nothing special. I blame a lack of Personnel, Waiter was trying but over extended. Did not offer any compensation for the extreme delay & poor service.
Wow, quelle belle découverte ! La qualité de la nourriture, l'abondance des plats à prix plus que raisonnable, la qualité du service, la gentillesse du proprio, la propreté & l'aménagement des lieux, TOUT ÉTAIT A1 !! Le resto vient de gagner de nouveaux clients, je vous le recommande chaleureusement !!

Vraiment le meilleur restaurant chinois à Laval. La nourriture y est excellente, & les portions plus que généreuse.
Le service est très courtois (apportez votre "anglais"!). Ils avaient l'air un peu débordé, mais ils ont tout fait pour que notre repas fut agréable.
À essayer, & ré-essayer!
Have been enjoying Ken's cooking here since January 2013. The restaurant is clean, with fabric beige coloured tablecloths. Ken always comes out of the kitchen to greet his customers & then returns to your table to make sure everything is just how you like it.
There are many "a la carte" dishes to choose from. The wonton soup is always hot with shrimp filled won tons. The hot & sour soup is good also. The egg rolls are full of pork & less cabbage with a pungent plum sauce. Last time we dined, we had sweet & & sour shrimp, comes with a very light batter coating, not to heavy., braised chicken in a pot, delicious. Also had the sesame chicken, & chicken fried rice. The dishes are generous, we are always four, & always have leftovers that they pack up for you. Prices are very reasonable. One dish I really like is the Cantonese noodles, I don't know how they make it, but it is better than others I've had most recently. Reservations not required & is also a BYOB. No uncorking fee, but I don't drink wine with Asian food. They have there own parking which makes things easier than going down to china town. Al al in all, strongly recommend to others.
