The mutton soup is super spicy and has a strong taste. It doesn’t have the flavor of the mutton soup at all. I almost vomited after taking one sip. The overall price is too expensive and not worth it.

The food was alright, not the greatest either. Not something I'd get under normal circumstances. For more flavour I'd go elsewhere.

It's so outrageous. Today, on Christmas Eve, I went into the store to order food. There was no customer in the store except for a chef. I asked for pancakes and fruit, but before I could finish my words, I was rudely interrupted and said that the landlady had returned to China and she couldn't make pancakes and fruit. I said that's it, and then the chef said to himself very loudly: I still want to eat pancakes and fruits during the holidays. What kind of pancakes and fruits can I eat? There are no pancakes and fruits. I can't make them. At that time, everyone was dumbfounded. When a customer comes to order food, you sell something you don’t have and you teach them a lesson? I said no, I don’t have it. What’s your attitude? The chef said that’s what I said. If you want to order, just order. If you don’t, just leave. He also said let’s not fight. This is the first time I’ve seen a chef want to beat a customer. I used to see chefs having mental breakdowns when there were too many customers and too much pressure. It was really interesting that even one customer was so arrogant. If you are celebrating the holidays and don't want to cook, just don't open the door. There is absolutely no exaggeration or distortion in what is said above. I wish it will close down soon.

Small establishment with only four tables. The food is made well with simple clean flavors when compared with cantonese cuisine.

I asked my friends, Charlie and Alice to take me to an authentic Chinese restaurant. This was where they told me. The food was outstanding. Very tasty and delicious. The service was excellent (although I didn't understand the conversation). Charlie and Alice were delightful hosts. They taught me Chinese style manners, which make so much sense when you eat with chop sticks.Parking: Right in front.Wheelchair accessibility: I think it was okay but I'm not 100% sure.

Finally a restaurant i feel will be here for some time. Great tasting food, for real. And when I come here it feels cozy but really I am here for the food. So nice to see it busy as well. A good sign of a place that has something great going for them. I will be back for sure.

The owner is very authentic and kind. I highly recommend anyone who loves Chinese breakfast to come and have a try. The Tofu (豆腐脑)is specially tasty. The buns are really yummy too. And the quantity is really full. My husband loved the place a lot and we will definitely come visit again. We’re from another city.

The cook and everyone else I see that works here smokes cigarettes constantly. Right outside the door (which is illegal within 5 metres and extremely harmful to the other businesses literally right next to them). This is extremely unprofessional and unhygienic, especially outside the front of the store. If they want to smoke they should be going out the back and walking away from the building. Not standing outside the front entrance to not only their business but 7 other businesses. It seems they have no respect for any other humans’ respiratory heath as this is the only entrance and people are forced to walk through a cloud of smoke half the time. Please take into consideration the health of others and properly direct your employees. I truly hope the chef washes their hands after but I am doubtful. I frequent the other shops in this little area and have to be in the parking lot (where they decide is the right place to smoke) often, and this has made me never want to come to this restaurant, and I have told pretty much everyone I know this.

Regardless of paying by cash or credit card, remember to tip more, otherwise you will be ridiculed by the proprietress.

I agree with a previous reviewer. The food was OK, but "No formal printed receipt with prices written." I believe we also overcharged. That is annoying. Not planning to go back for sure.

I had the unfortunate experience of visiting this restaurant, and I must say it was one of the worst dining experiences of my life. It's quite clear that the owner has no interest in running a successful business and is simply wasting valuable resources. In fact, I have my suspicions that this establishment is being used for money laundering purposes.The restaurant is frequently closed, and when it is open, there are no servers present. The person who answers the phone is extremely rude, and it seems as though they view their customers as a burden rather than an opportunity to make money. I have attempted to visit this restaurant on multiple occasions, only to find that it is closed despite the advertised opening hours. When it does eventually open, the owner is often late.If you have no interest in running a business, why bother opening one in the first place? I strongly advise against visiting this establishment and wasting your time and money.
