From the atmosphere to the service to the food, everything was excellent. This is a great restaurant for Chinese cuisine. The portions were very generous-we had enough leftovers to take home & enjoy for dinner as well. Everything was flavorful & delicious. Highly recommend!
Très belle expérience culinaire .....qualité & quantité étaient au rendez-vous
La serveuse était très aimable aussi
Seul petit bémol.....Pas très facile de trouver le stationnement où on peut se stationner....mais pour le reste tout était parfait sans oublier le dessert .....mousse à la mangue
Some of the worst Szechuan food I've had in years. I honestly don't know what I was thinking coming here. The food somehow managed to be bland, greasy, & aggressively salty all at once. Every dish tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp since lunch & then reheated badly before serving.
The dumplings looked & tasted cheap, rubbery, & completely flavorless. The General Tao was basically chunks of fried batter drowning in thick sugary salt sauce. Even the vegetables were sad.
The whole restaurant also feels tired & dingy, with zero energy or atmosphere. Definitely not the same quality people remember from the old Peel location years ago.
Terrible location, awful parking, mediocre service, & food that made me want water for the next three hours.
Amazing food, one of the best Chinese restaurants in Montreal.
The green chili chicken, & chili beef are absolutely amazing.
Both on the spicy side & full of flavour. The portions are generous.
The service is very friendly & attentive.
Can't wait to go again & try new things on the menu.
