This is one of my go-to places to eat when I really don't feel like cooking. They have so many options available for tofu and vegetable dishes. You only need to specify vegan (no fish/oyster sauce) when ordering and everything should be good! It is pretty affordable for the portions, so I have ordered food from here on multiple occasions. My favorite dishes are the Kung pao tofu and the tofu with broccoli.

First time and was very confused because I didn’t read the reviews before coming. It’s like a fast food restaurant, you order at the counter, they give you a table marker, get your own drinks, sit down and they bring you your food. No waiters or waitresses just a $1.50 cleanup fee. Food was okay. No background music so it was very quiet and you could hear everyone chewing and talking.

This is a very good place, and has very good food. The only nit is that the pork dumplings are not to my taste, but that’s my opinion. I got the General Tso’s chicken, and it was very good. If only there was a bit more rice…

Good food and seems to be authentic. Service could be better but pricing is great.

Oh man! What can I say.. lots of menu items. Probably the most I’ve seen in my life to be honest. The food we ordered was absolutely delicious. Authentic beef curry, pork wontons, beef with brown sauce oof I wish I ordered more. We were just passing by this nice town and ordered take out here! Absolutely amazing.

Well if you want Chinese food you will definitely get it. I would not say it is the best Chinese food I’ve had… or even the most decent.

Everything is self-service which is completely fine if not more streamlined (ordering, getting water, getting menus). But food is delivered by a waiter so that is good! Server was very nice and service was very quick even when busy, our food came out in less than 15 minutes (and we ordered a lot).

I will say to use the ‘Americanized’ menu if you are not familiar with Chinese cuisine, then the Taiwanese menu, and lastly if you are adventurous try the attempt the read the 1000 item Authentic menu. RECOMMEND FOR BIG PARTIES: Order $120+ (pretax) for a free entree

The food were all mostly meh, with a few outliers: the king mushroom dish, triple chicken dish, and the sweet pork-chop. Everything else was quite oily, lacking in salt, or flavorless. DO NOT order the wonton soup, unless you want a bowl of hot water.

There is a reason why this place is ranked as one of the best, more authentic Chinese restaurants in town. Everything is prepared perfectly. Tender meats, balanced sauces.

Restaurant/dining style is self served. Which I don't mind at all.

Highly recommend. Bring your hunger, generous portions. ❤️

Best,

Our 4th time of coming... coz of good authentic food... unfortunately.. this might be our last... prices went up ridiculously.. and they charge you $1.75/person for cleaning fee for dinning in???! Wow ! It seems you are not welcome to dine inside.. instead of giving tips to the server, since they already charged us.. so no more tip !

Giggy Sprinter

Amazing. Cheap, huge selection of menu, authentic (it's not just the flavourless american food), lots of flavours, and they even have hot tea for free! Also the portion is big enough. If it says spicy then it's spicy, not the western level of spicy.

Overall the food is good, but not worth the price that we paid. They charge $1.75 per person if you dine in to clean the table. I would be ok if the table I sat at was not sticky and bits of rice were on the seats. I would think twice before going back.
