This is a decent size establishment in a conjusted strip mall.
Food:
There are so many items on the menu that it can be overwhelming. The lunch specials are very good. Prices ranging from 6 -8. The portions were suprisngly decent.
Beef with chillies - flavourful & seasoned well. Came with white rice and boiled broccoli and Kimchi.
The BBQ chicken kabobs (3) - though seasoned well, I didn't like how the fat around them was chewy (not barbecued enough).
Service:
Not the greatest. It's slow
I live in Mississauga. And I come to this restaurant with my friends and family every week. It’s great food, very good service, and very good prices. I love this place and all my friends do too.
I'd like to preface this with the fact that I'm not much of a fan of Chinese food (authentic or otherwise) despite having grown up on it. I came here for Mothers' Day. There was a small wait to be seated. The place is filled with loud conversation, the walls decorated with various Chinese stringed instruments and tapestry. Service was quick and friendly, especially attentive with keeping our pot topped up with tea. The Waitress was quick to recommend popular dishes. Meat skewers are a must-have here, especially the lamb (big plus if you can take heat) . A drawback to the menu was that all the dishes ordered seem to have the same flavour profiles just in different platforms (ex. Homemade noodles, naan, Chinese pancake etc). That said, everything was delicious. I will definitely return with friends.
Originally I was introduced to this place by my friend, and I immediately fell in love with it, their lamb, chicken, beef tendon... All the kabobs are absolutely delicious! And their home made noodles, are so good. I would absolutely recommend this place. I went for the second time today, and did the same thing I did before, I got so distracted and busy with eating, I took no pictures of their wonderful food. But don't worry, another nice point, their menus is full of pictures. :)
One of my favourite places for Northern Chinese food! With the VIP discount card, the lamb skewers here are the best deal here. I've been here a few times and have tried a lot of different dishes. I'd say most dishes are pretty good with only a few dishes where it's just decent.

I saw three people tonight who ordered at least 8 regular sized entree dishes! I would too...if I could.... Delicious, hot (temperature wise, but sometimes spicy-wise) food. Also cold food.
Came with Dad tonight. Paid $25 after tax and tip, and we had leftovers!
Had:
Preserved egg and tofu salad ($4.99) - This cold dish consists of cubes of tofu and chunks of preserved eggs tossed in a sesame oil mixture and garnished with green onion. It was a tad mild for me, and wasn't quite cold enough, but it grew on me. Not sure whether the sesame oil overwhelmed the taste of the tofu, the taste of the tofu overwhelmed the sesame oil, or there was not much sesame oil flavor or tofu flavor.
BBQ cabbage ($2.99) - This is 2 good sized skewers of square cut cabbage leaves (many, many cabbage leaves) slightly oiled and dusted with that traditional Northern Chinese BBQ seasoning (cumin, red pepper powder of some sort, salt, and perhaps some other things), then grilled. The result is this incredibly flavorful, hot cabbage that is still slightly crisp in texture, and the cabbage's sweetness still shines through.
Rolled onion pancake w/ sliced beef ($5.79) - Best green onion and beef pancake I've ever had, and I've had variations of this dish at a number of different restaurants. This one comes pre-rolled and still in tin foil, but cut into four pieces. The beef shank inside is super moist. The green onion pancake is thin enough that you don't just get a big mouthful of dough. The green onion pancake also manages to stay crisp in some parts.
Cool lowmein w/ BBQ lamb ($9.99 on the menu, but $5.99 tonight...see below) - I think this is what the last dish was. It's a cold noodle served in a savory, slightly vinegary sauce. It's topped with julienned cucumbers and chunks of bbq lamb meat.
Weekday specials!
Monday: some kind of cold, flat, noodle appetizer - $3.99
Tuesday: lamb dumplings (I can't remember the discounted price)
Wednesday: The cold noodle mentioned above - $5.99
Thursday: some kind of lamb in sizzling pot - $7.99
I would totally come again! =D
Great food. Recent dinner at this restaurant was a pleasant experience. Western Chinese cuisine with its Sichuan influence/flavours reflected in the dishes. Services was prompt and courteous.
The green onion pancake was delicious!! I’ve had many pancakes of this type before and this one was expertly made. It was fresh, hot, crispy, lightly fried, and rich in flavour in the right way — not too salty at all.

This place for me is definitely a hidden gem. From both the times I have been here, they didn’t disappoint with the lamb skewer and the fried pancake noodles =] Will definitely come back!
