The food was just okay for me. I found most dishes too salty, & overall it felt like low?grade Chinese cuisine. Not terrible, but definitely not something I'd go back for.

Amazing food, generous portions, & excellent service! We ordered the fried wontons & vegetables rolls as appetizers, & they were delicious. I especially recommend the classics, like the General Tao chicken & sesame beef. They also served chai, oranges, & fortune cookies, which was a nice touch. I'll definitely come back!

Rien d'exceptionnel, ce n'est pas mauvais mais c'est assez simple. 60 $ à 2 pour deux plats principaux & une entrée avec du riz vapeur. Les portions sont généreuses.

Le service est bien (thé à l'arrivée, on vous resserre l'eau, on reçoit une orange découpée à la fin). Beaucoup (trop ?) de choix à la carte. On vous donne un papier pour noter ce que vous souhaitez.

L'ambiance est froide & pas très romantique.

Je pense que c'est plus sympa en take away pour dépanner, il ne faut pas s'attendre à une ambiance restaurant

Not impressed. I haven't eaten hear in almost 20 years. Food in Montreal is declining but I figure this is expensive but reliable.

Why did I just order shrimp & lobster on Uber Eats sauce for $25 & it doesn't come with rice?? ($40 after taxes & tips)

Just a container with nothing to pour it on. Everyone has gotten so greedy. I shouldn't have to cook rice to eat my food! Very displeased with this nonsense.

Fantastic food at low price, great for families with tables for 8-10. The atmosphere is simple dining, nothing pretentious as it is all about dining.

Some of the best Chinese I've ever had. Fairly priced for the quality, 45per person with lots of leftovers. Plenty of options on the menu, we went with hunan/peanut butter dumplings, spring rolls, sesame beef, Cantonese chow mein, & shrimp in lobster sauce. Quality of the shrimp was fantastic, lobster sauce was delish poured over rice & noodles. Sesame beef was so tasty large pieces with good coating that is not too thickz Everything came out piping hot & the service was extremely attentive. Will come again for sure
