This place is a classic Chinatown institution. Great for late night eats as well as lunches. Portions are huge and the food is good. Shanghai noodles and Sichuan chicken Chow Mein are bomb as well as the oxtail hotpot. The owner's friendly and the wait staff remember their regulars as well as their 'usual'. What more could you ask for in a resto?

Great food super fresh. Simple deco but the place is vibrant with poeople and we will go back. We ordered General Tao; it was crispy and excellent. Dumplings (pork with chives) were freshly made for our order and had Singapore noodles which was one of the best I have had.

This is the place I usually go and trust whenever I organize big group lunches. This time we had 20 people and 10 dishes per table - not a single dish was bad. Very authentic Cantonese food with dishes that some other restaurants don't make anymore. My favourites were the lobster and the bird nest made with taro (very crunchy). The steamed tilapia was fresh and tender too. Service was amazing, every single staff including the owner were friendly and caring.

Did take out and even after driving 30 minutes back home, the food stayed hot and fresh! Everything was so tasty, and it did not disappoint at all. We ordered a LOT (as you can see), and it was all so good!! Our order consisted of: lobster in ginger and green onion sauce, lobster in black bean sauce, salt and pepper shrimp (this was also spicy) satay beef rice noodle, young chow fried rice, green beans with minced pork, snow pea leaves with enoki mushrooms, Szechuan style crispy chicken

The pan-fried egg with oysters was pretty good, and so was the salt and pepper shrimp. My favourite, however, was the deep-fried crispy chicken.

I can't speak to delivery or even takeout experiences because I always dine in (they have quite a few large tables available). Every time, I'm impressed by the price, portion size, quality, and flavour of the food. The best hot and sour ...

been eating here since university days ( 2012) and quality and consistency has never changed! dishes are flavourful and portion sizes are huge! prices are still very reasonable given the recent inflation

I went here for a staff lunch and all of the dishes were delicious, it reminds me of the restaurant in would go to as a kid with my family. From the clear broth soup at the beginning and the dessert at the end of the meal was a treat.
