This is a unique restaurant where you can get the regular Canadian Chinese fare, and also Authentic Chinese Food! Service is too notch and they are very willing to describe their dishes. We have really enjoyed learning about their authentic dishes and trying them. The food was so good that we dug right in before getting any photos!
So far we love the Szechuan Pork, twice cooked pork, veggie fried rice, egg rolls and spring rolls.
The most authentic Chongqing Spicy Chicken I’ve ever had! From the first bite I knew that this is an awesome restaurant and I will definitely be coming back for more of those chicken!
I'm not sure why there are negative reviews for this restaurant. This is obviously a hole in the wall restaurant with pretty cheap price with one front of house staff and a couple of kitchen staff. I wouldn't expect fine dining services. If it takes a bit of time, it is probably because they are making food from scratch vs. some fast food restaurants where things are pre-made and simply heated up.
I ordered a few traditional Chinese dishes, and the chef and staff were tentative and asked about my preferences. I lived in big cities like Toronto and Vancouver, and tried Chinese food all over the world. The portion was good. Flavour was as good as it gets given the limited Chinese ingredients available in this part of Canada. The hot and sour soup was the best I've tasted in years. The meat was well marinated and tender. Both pork and beef.
I will definitely come back :)
