Service très agréable & efficace. Temps d'attente très court. Les plats sont extrêmement bons & authentiques. Petite perle de Chinatown. Recommande vivement
!! Attention ne prends que en CASH !! + tips obligatoire sinon le serveur vous le rappel
Le lieu ne paye pas mine mais les serveurs sont très agréable & attentionnés. Les plats sont peu chers & vraiment excellent. Je recommence pour les nouilles & les raviolis à la vapeur.
I've never been to China, but the food felt authentic. So cozy & delicious. The only'negative' is the atmosphere, it's quite old & not spotless clean, but the food was so yummy that it does not matter 💖
Insane noodles, good portions.
Got the classic Stir Fried Rice Noodle with beef (#29), also tasted the Singapour Noodles with shrimp (#30) which is my favorite!
Service super quick. Atmosphere did feel like we had to eat quick & go, but over all really good experience
After reading the reviews, I was expecting the food to be better, especially the xiao-long-bao. But it wasn't, which is unfortunate. Their shrimp fried rice & fried shrimp (batter coated) were ok. But their wonton noodle soup is also disappointing. Luckily, the price is very reasonable & service is superb. Hard working crew for sure. I did see the kitchen fry for their staff meal shell-on prawns, now THAT LOOKED delicious & is what I was hoping they would sell. Coming from Vancouver, I guess it's a hard comparison. Again, hard working & very friendly staff.
Stumbled upon this place for dinner & it was excellent! The food came out amazingly fast, & it was great. We had the cantonese chow mein, general tao chicken, pork noodle soup with vermicelli noodles, & spring rolls. It was very affordable as well. The staff are very efficient & the service is incredible. The second our water was empty they replaced it with a new one. They were very attentive & kind. Very glad we came here!
This restaurant is close to the metro station Place d'Armes (100m). It excels in simplicity & has very tasty & affordable food. The menu is not very big, but there is enough variety to choose from. The food comes with complimentary water, & if you want something else you have the choice between a coke regular or a coke zero. Payment is cash only, but you can withdraw money from an ATM across the street inside the Holiday Inn hotel. The staff is very friendly & the food comes quickly. I would definitely go there again.
