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!
Me & my husband rate this restaurant 1 star we very disappointed as we ordered steamed seabas but they give different fish taste like tilapias we very familiar with the taste of sea bass & the price is very expensive not to recommend this restaurant better to eat in kung khe Chinatown the price is worth & food very good quality
I came here with my friends, expecting it might be a bit of a gamble, but it turned out to be surprisingly good. The Mao Xue Wang & Kung Pao Chicken really showcase the skill of Sichuan cooking - the chicken was tender & juicy, & the shrimp chips, shrimp, & squid in the Mao Xue Wang were all fresh & flavorful.
To be honest, the eggplant with green beans was just average, but the big-eyed staff member was very attentive. Although his Chinese wasn't very fluent, he kept trying to communicate with us & patiently suggested that since we were only two ladies, we didn't need to order too many dishes & could go for smaller portions to avoid wasting food. You can tell the owner runs the place with honesty. Highly recommended - definitely worth a try!

This restaurant is a nice twist of Chinese cuisine with innovative creation, where new ideas are unleashed to blend in harmony with typical menu.
Even the atmosphere feels different, with a warm welcome so noticeable that makes you really feel at home. Staff are very attentive without being overly intrusive. There is a high presence of hospitality where you never feel watched, only looked after. They rely on visuals & a quiet presence to ensure everything is progressing perfectly. Tea pots are swiftly being refilled. A variety of different size rectangular tables, as opposed to the typical round tables, to accommodate large groups.
Getting back to the dishes:
- We started with crispy shrimp balls with the filling being bouncy with a savoury paste made from minced shrimp. The outside is deep-fried rice sticks (?) puffed up to become incredibly airy & shatteringly crisp, creating that'nest' look.
- Meat balls enrobed with white rice, where the meat is so deliciously seasoned.
- The next dish is a Szechuan style fish soup with pickled cabbage buried at the bottom. This is a relatively thick broth with a luxurious mouthfeel & I can tell that fish head & bones were fried & simmered intensely to create this creamy white base. The soup is finished by pouring smoking hot oil over the dried chilies. So delicious, but if I had to re-order it, I would ask the chef to go easy on the salt.
- Beijing roast duck. This is quite a large plate as it looks like the entire duck was carved. This is served with pancakes, cucumber sticks & the sweet salty sauce. If you are looking for the imperial taste of B?ij?ng k?oy?, then this is not the place, but nevertheless very acceptable.
- Mince pork & beans. I occasionally cook with these ingredients, but the taste is truly unique & well worth a try.
- Sweet & sour chicken. This is the typical dish in balancing sweet & sour flavours, accompanied by large chunks of green onions & red bell peppers. The glistening, reddish-brown glaze is probably made with sweet bean sauce.
- Fried rice. Not the typical Cantonese fried rice I am used to, as the taste & even the rice is different. It is well seasoned, savoury & aromatic. But so different.
Thanks to the host family who invited us to this truly unique restaurant which is a place I would greatly recommend.
Just had one of my best experiences in a Chinese restaurant. Highly recommend the squirrel fish dish, it's very authentic & crispy. The service is excellent, they even proposed setting up a background birthday song as we had the birthday cake. Will be recommending this place to friends & family.
Ce restaurant est une vrai merveille! Nous sommes allés dîner & avons reçu un accueil chaleureux. Le service, explications & suggestions de Virginia, notre serveuse, étaient exceptionnels. La nourriture est délicieuse & le décor très joli! Je le recommande fortement!
