Being Jewish, it is a tradition to go to a Chinese restaurant on Christmas day. So we did the right thing & went to Chinatown & had supper.
We found parking within minutes. We left earlier than usual thinking parking would be tough, but it wasn't. We arrived at the restaurant, & took the last table.
For starters we had Single bowls of Won-Ton soup & the won-tons were firmly stuffed with pork & shrimp. Followed by (not shown) meat filled egg-rolls with Hunan Dumplings.
The main meal was Ginger Lobster, Shrimp with Chinese Broccoli, & Rice sticks with Beef, Green Peppers, & Onions, in Black Bean Sauce.
The restaurant was overloaded so there was a long pause between the starters & mains, but we didn't mind.
Servers were kind & friendly as usual.

Our food was terrible, with the excuse that the kitchen was busy with takeout orders (the restaurant was only half full). Dumplings arrived with the soup so were cold by the time we got to them. They replaced them with dumplings that were barely warm. The garlic shrimp were inedible due to too much salt (excuse: kitchen too busy). We agreed to an easy switch to anything but the shrimp so we pointed to the next table & suggested a meat dish with vegetables. It arrived without all the vegetables! (Waitress shrugged). Never again!

The wonton soup was good, but the "chicken" in the fried rice & noodles tasted weird.

We had the following: egg rolls, wonton soup, mushroom egg drop soup, Hunan dumplings, Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, bbq pork fried rice, chicken chow mein, diced chicken with Cashew Nuts & vegetables, & Mongolian beef (beef sauté). We ordered through Uber eats, so the price per item was pretty high, but comparable to other restaurants. Most of the food was good. Here are how I rate the items from best to worst. Chicken chow mein: Very Delicious. I was surprised at how crispy & crunchy the noodles on top still were by the time we got to eat. The chicken & vegetables were also in a delicious sauce. It was a pretty good portion & there was nothing about this we didn't like. I'd definitely order it again. Mongolian beef/beef sauté: Really good! If you are expecting anything like P.f. Chang's Mongolian beef, don't be surprised that it's nothing like that. It has other vegetables like red pepper, onion & snow peas. It is very spicy (for us) & the beef is very tender. We both liked it although I still prefer Mongolian beef from PF Chang's. I'd definitely order this again. Chicken with Cashew Nuts: This one was really good, except I was not a fan of the type of mushroom they used. The slice was really thick & chewy & I didn't like the taste. Besides that, there was a good assortment of vegetables & the chicken & sauce were also delicious. I personally also dislike baby corn which is also in the dish, but I know a lot of folks like it. If probably order it again & just pick it the mushrooms & baby corn. We both liked this. Egg rolls: These were just ok. They were a bit small, but well cooked. I love the egg roll wrappers, but the seasoning inside wasn't very good. I would probably will order it again because I love egg rolls. Maybe it would be better cold the next day. BBQ pork fried rice: I like that they offer the option of BBQ pork because not every place does. I like that they put so many vegetables in it, but overall the taste of the rice is just ok. Maybe the next day cold it would be better. I may or may not order this again if it tastes better the next day. Chinese broccoli in oyster sauce: I love Chinese broccoli & I sometimes prepare it at home or eat it at restaurants. The way they prepared it, it was too bitter. I would probably not order this again as it doesn't seem worth the cost to me. They sauce was good, but I'd probably order a different vegetable. Wok cafe does it better. We'll still eat it though, it's not that bad. Mushroom egg drop soup: This was just ok. It was very bland. Most egg drop soup is pretty mild, but because they used frozen peas & carrots, that taste really overwhelmed the soup. I think it would have been better maybe with just mushrooms, egg & green onions. Hunan dumplings: I normally love hunan dumplings. Every place has their own unique peanut sauce. Some are sweet, some are spicy, some are coconutty. I've never had hunan dumplings like this. I really disliked them to the point that I will not eat the rest. They didn't taste peanutty at all. The dominant flavor was soy sauce & some spice/flavor I didn't recognize. I also didn't really like the meat inside, although I couldn't taste it well because of the sauce. My husband did like them a lot though & said he'll eat them all, so I guess it's a matter of different tastes. They give a decent portion. My husband ordered the wonton soup, but he hasn't tried it yet, so I can't fairly review it. It did look good though & they didn't seem stingy with the wontons. Overall I rate them 4 out of 5 stars & I'd order there again. My husband thinks they're 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Super bon c'est un restaurant que je fréquente depuis 30ans. Les plats ont des bonnes portion. Nous étions 4 & 4 plats avec une soupe ont été bien parfait & on a même rapporté un petit restant. Sur le service c'était bien jusqu'à le serveur me dise que 15% de pourvoir c'est pas assez, j'ai pas aimer me faire dire que je dois donner plus nous étions sur une nappe en plastique. Alors pour me pas faire du bruit j'ai rajouté 5$ de plus, mais je ne pense plus y retourner.

The wonton soup & mixed vegetables with shrimp were really good. My only complaint is the small portions.

Restaurant fonctionnant sur le principe du partage de plats qui peut faire l'affaire sans être extraordinaire.

+ Très grand choix de plats (soupes, plats de fruits de mer, plats de boeuf, plat de poulet, nouilles, etc)
+ Grosses portions
+ Prix abordables

+- Nourriture bien : pas extraordinaire, mais assez correct (surtout pour le prix, je crois)
+- Thé qui vient automatiquement dès qu'on s'assoie, mais pas de verre d'eau (je crois qu'il fallait le demander, car sinon personne va en apportez à la table)

- Salle assez petite, donc pas beaucoup de tables, ce qui peut expliquer qu'il semble assez plein
- Service froid, très expéditif : quand on est arrivé le serveur nous demandait à tous les 2 minutes (sans exagération) si on était prêts à commander & il n'est plus venu plus nous voir du tout dès qu'un autre client est arrivé alors que tout indiquait qu'on était prêts à commander, pas de sourire, aucune formule de politesse usuelle comme "Bonsoir", "Merci", "Au revoir", etc, personne qui vient demander si tout est à notre goût ou si on a besoin d'autre chose pendant le repas,...
- Personnel qui dit à peine quelques mots en français quand on essaie de leur parler dans cette langue & qui revient assez vite à l'anglais
- Apparence générale assez "cheap" (ex : nappes en plastique)

Après avoir mangé là-bas pour la première fois, je dois dire que je suis assez déçue. C'est peut-être correct si on veut une bonne quantité de nourriture assez correct, servie rapidement & à bon prix. Mais si on a des critères un peu plus élevés (vouloir de la très bonne nourriture, une ambiance agréable & un service un minimum acceptable), je conseillerais d'aller voir ailleurs.
