Nice, casual place for lunch or dinner. They seem to specialize in BBQ meats, which we didn’t get to try this time but would love to next visit.

Coming from Canada, this felt like a comforting, no-frills spot. We ordered the soy sauce chicken and wonton soup.

The soup broth was very light and clear, it a bit bland for my personal taste. But the meats and wonton were very flavourful, fragrant, and nicely salty. It made sense that the broth was lighter since the meats carried most of the flavour.

Overall, a decent place to dine at for comforting, casual food.

The names of the fried rice dishes are different, but they are all made with their meat. Another one has shrimp added. But they are completely different from Yangzhou fried rice.

The food is good, but the service is crap. I'm not paying to get yelled at for asking for a cup of water. You bring me the water and chopsticks without me asking. How hard is that? In future I will only order take out and leave zero tip.

I really like their Chinese BBQ and 酸菜鱼 — both are flavorful and hit the spot every time. Some of the other dishes can be hit or miss depending on the day.

Service-wise, it’s okay. It used to be a lot better when they had younger servers who were more attentive. These days, service is pretty minimal — don’t expect much beyond the basics.

The barbecue pork rice plate was tasty and generously portioned. Service was average. Waited about 30 minutes for a table. The ambiance was pleasant. There's a free parking lot with plenty of spaces available outside the restaurant.

A pretty nice hong kong style restaurant in the area! In fact, this whole complex is split in the two with this one focusing on barbecue pork and chicken and the other side focusing on spicy fish. If you can't get a seat on one side, you can always go to the other side because the menu is exactly the same and you can order from both sides as needed. Just don't mind the AI generated ads plastered in some areas... Waiting can be long especially during peak. Lunch hours around 30 to 45 minutes... Ordering was done easily through the iPad and when you are done confirming the order, the waiter will come to pick up the iPad. Depending on the dish such as the rice plates, they can come out fairly quickly, but even some dishes that are prepared in the kitchen can take a very long time 30-45 min wait for a chow fun... But at least everything is very tasty, including the chow fun that had a lot of flavor to it! I also like that they had lemon Coca-Cola with refills!

The roast pork and bbq pork were delicious. They were both tender and flavorful, and the roast pork had a nice crispy skin. These are the two items that stood out for our meal today that I'll definitely be back for more of these.

Other items we tried are clay pot rice which was good but still missed the mark compared to Asia, and pea sprout with garlic was delicious but the same as some other Chinese restaurants that I've been too.

Next time, planning to try their roast duck.

Pretty good bbq flavor, quite authentic love that they can chop in front of you.

Not a fan...the food was disasterously bland, and to add insult to boredom my dish was ten minutes later than the others at my table. There are some dishes that are a bright spot in this otherwise beige menu, but the central dish (soy sauce roasted chicken) is only slightly more flavorful than wallpaper paste. I feel like my sanity might have been saved were there some sauce, or even just salt...but lo, there's none to be had anywhere.

I've had good versions of this dish. This can be delicious. Roasted chicken and rice? Yeh man, find the right sauce and season it...but I think this place seems to have forgotten that seasoning exists.

Introduced by friend about this restaurant and BBQ pork simply is the best. Wonton noodle soup is also highly recommended. Broth is flavorful. Wonton and noodles are simply authentic. Would like to explore other dishes when returning next time.

The first time we went here we dined in and got the soup rice noodles and wonton and it tasted AMAZING! It had a very good flavor that came with vegetables and meats that quickly filled my appetite! The workers there were also very nice! They had a robot that served food also! It’s also really easy to find with large amounts of parking spaces.
The spaces was very cozy and the chairs and booths were very comfortable as well. This was overall a very great experience and I would definitely go here again!

Meat of Three kind of platters are little bit dry, stir fried lamb is ok and so is the YaoYao two kind fish. And Dry pot cauliflower. Service is below average.

The duck, pork, and chicken were extremely salty that I couldn’t taste the original food anymore…
