Went in at 3am after a night out drinking. The place was buzzing and the food was great. Must try is the beef and vegetable birds nest and the salt and pepper pork chops. We had also ordered the bbq pork fried rice and a tasty dry beef chowmein
Tuesday dinner was at Maison VIP. The outside of the restaurant could use some restoration, but the inside was ok.
Yay! A restaurant that understands that single diners need to eat dinner too. Boo! The choice is limited to only one full course dinner. For $13.95 you get:
- Won Ton Soup
- Egg Roll
- Dry Spare Ribs
- Chicken Lo Mein
- Chicken Fried Rice
- Almond Cookie
The quantity of the food was abundant, and I barely finished everything. While the food was ok, it was a bit too "Canadian" for my liking. If there is a next time, I would probably stay away from the fixed menu.
Service was very good.
I have only been to this restaurant once, and tasted three dishes, but so far Maison VIP is offering the best Chinese food I have ever eaten. The food was fresh, and lacking that "muddy" dulled/tired flavor a lot of Chinese food has. Sauces were delicately and really deliciously flavored. Meats were tender and succulent. Portions are generous too, great for sharing several dishes around, which is what we did. If you are in or around Chinatown I can strongly recommend that you Maison VIP a try. If you come during lunch hours, I strongly recommend that you ask for the dinner menu. They will be happy to provide it to you. Enjoy.
