The best chinese food in town

Food was so good, serving sizes are huge especially if you get dinner for 2/3/4 menu item. Service was great, servers were very attentive.

Overall, the food was good, but the service was lacking. I waited about 10 minutes in front of the employee to pay for my pickup order. He saw me but ignored me. I understand that he may have difficulty counting (closing cash or something) , but it would have been more respectful to simply let us know that he was busy & ask us to wait a little. Instead he only waved that he didn't care. They also need to improve the entrance. Poorly designed

La nourriture était bien, sans plus. J'ai été déçue d'être servie en anglais. J'ai informé la serveuse ne pas parler l'anglais, elle a tout de même continuer à s'adresse à moi en anglais. J'ai demandé de m'envoyer un serveur pouvant parler français. Elle ne l'a pas fait. Elle s'est plutôt dirigé vers une autre table. Il a fallu que je trouve moi-même un serveur pouvant parler français. L'utilisation du français (au moins pour pouvoir discuter du menu) devrait être obligatoire.

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
