We have ordered skip the dishes before but it’s been going downhill. Tonight was actually the worst food I have ever ordered from any restaurant. The chow mein was a box of old dry noodles and the cashew chicken dish had two pieces of chicken and the rest was ALL celery! Disgusting! Sweet and sour was old or just dry, bad cooks tonight or just a huge change? No idea but this was their last chance, no more.

Excellent GF Chinese food!!!

All of these dishes are gf and taste as good as they look (they don’t look gf 😉)

Huge portions - two people already full and it looks like nothing is missing. Even included sesame seeds and top shelf GF soy sauce!

+ I’ve been GF for over 15 years and the size of this gluten free menu is unmatched!

Talk about hit and miss!!! After our first amazement at a great delivery meal, we were totally disappointed in the second!!!! The Ginger Beef was very good, but everything else seems to have fallen through the cracks of the kitchen floor and resold!! The first Special Chow Mein was JUST NOODLES! Nothing else! I phoned and they promptly delivered a new one, with the same result! A very few tiny pieces of chicken and a couple of pieces of onion. I will be taking it back tomorrow to sgiw them their complete and utter failure. The Wor Wonton dumplings were bland and all the veggies overcooked and unpallatable...After the first time where there was plenty of crispy veg and two prawns ( standard ) and mushrooms, this time only one prawn and very few limp veg and ZERO mushrooms...McDonalds at least is consistent in their terrible offerings but at least you know what to expext

Pros
It's better than subway.
The potions felt a little large.
Boba tea was great
Clean washrooms
Friendly staff
The meat was well cooked.

Cons
I didn't like the cho mein/noodles. Tasted dry, not enough veggies.
Sriracha tastes like spicy ketchup.
I've had milk spicier than the dishes they call hot/spicy.
Ask for tip

The Roast duck they make is one of the most famous in Victoria, excellently prepared and very delicious. It's our first choice for dining here or for takeout whenever we crave Peking duck.

Basically like your typical mall food court Chinese food eatery. A little pricey but I guess what isn't these days.

The beef stew and sweet and sour pork are fantastic

I've been getting meals from the hot table for a few years. I sometimes order separate dishes from the menu. The food is always good and the service is great!
