Lovely people, owners & staff. Very welcome atmosphere with open kitchen. Place is clean. I'm nice you order it does not take too long for dishes to be served at the table. Their shumai (dim sum) was tasty & light, some of the pork was a little too chewy. General Tao chicken. Found it to have too much breading & the sauce was not the typical general Tao sauce I'm accustomed to as it seems to have a strong citrus to it but I am really not sure. I actually can't describe what the flavouring was for that matter. Crispy fried sesame shrimp also has an odd sauce that we were not used to & as such was the weakest dish we ordered. Shrimp were properly cooked & not too much breading & nice & crisp on the outside. Chicken in black bean sauce was very tasty but lacking sufficient veggies & not much of them except tons of onions. Luckily the onions tasted fantastic. Chicken was what appears to be white meat & was juicy. Spring rolls were way too greasy & the oil smelled off. The spring roll itself was lacking any real flavour or for that matter sufficient amount of meaningful ingredients & as such we left them over. Their white rice was cooked perfectly The tofu general Tao was surprisingly good. The tofu was cooked to a gentle crisp & then covered in general Tao sauce - the same from the other dish. Oddly the sauce was not too bad on the tofu dish The real star of the were the peanut butter dumplings. This was perfect toy cooked, delicate outer dough, filling was proportionate to the size of the wrap, & the sauce was fantastic. Tip. If you have leftover sauce pour it over your white rice it's awesome. I could just go there for plates & plates of the dumplings.
I will be returning here to try other stuff because, based on the rave reviews for some of their other dishes, I suspect that what I had is not one of their specialties. The Singapore noodles were ok, but could have used more spices & meat. The sweet & sour soup was very good. Friendly staff. Large portions & very good prices.
La caissière nous a obligé a donné un pourboire... Ordinaire pas mal, surtout que ce n'est pas elle qui nous a servi.
Exceptional food with great taste, & very good service, the only negative thing was that it was cold & there was no music. Other than that, I do recommend.
Très bon, bonne portion, service rapide, restaurant tranquille
Excellent Général Tao. Surprenant. Ambiance correcte & bon rapport qualité-prix.
I am a traveller from Edmonton & I have stayed in Montreal for 4 days. As Chinese, I can say this is such an authentic Chinese restaurant, & I think this is the best Chinese food I've taken in Montreal. We ordered 五香牛腩饭 & 鱼香茄子the price is so fair & food is very delicious! Love it. 🥺
The food was very good . The portions were big & the price was very reasonable.
My favourite place that stays open late to bring my friends to after a night out. A lot of authentic dishes & the usual stuff you see at dim sum made to order at a fair price for big portions. Open view of the kitchen from the dinning area so you can see & hear your food being tossed in the wok. Clean tables, plates & utensils. Servers are attentive & speak English, French & Chinese, including a less well known dialect from my family's hometown.
Good is very good for what you get Portions are very big It can be a little too oily & service can be slow but they're SO nice & the PadSew is delicious. Plus if you want leftovers it's a great quick fix for a Chinese food option I highly recommend Wok if you're hungry & downtown It's our favourite place to go aside for Chinatown
