One word of caution, the hot water in the bathroom is extremely hot so be careful 🙂“

“This is the best chinese restaurant I have ever had! Super authentic and amazing tasting. Amazing service!

The fact that someone left this restaurant anything less than a 5 star review is mind blowing. I give this place a 10 star rating out of 5. Amazing. Thank you guys for the awesome service.“

“First time I tried this place was tonight and was truly not disappointed. Food was still very hot when I got home the portions were enormous and delicious. First time in a very long time there was actually chicken in the ball chicken and S/S was very nice and flavourful. Keep up the great work guys 👍“

“Great Pad Thai, fresh spring rolls, new ownership that has the right setup. Give it a try if in Stoney Creek area!“

“Very good fresh made food, very hospitable. Try the curry chicken with naan“

“Great food, great prices and great service. I highly recommend you try this place!“

“Decided to try this place out for dinner with the family tonight and this review couldn’t wait another minute. This was by far the best chinese food I have had EVER, our favourite chinese restaurant just closed down but honestly this doesn’t even compare. Their General TSO’s chicken is the most amazing I have ever put on this palate and I strongly recommend, broccoli cooked perfectly and everything else we tried was just delicious, definitely try this place out, deserves more than 5 stars!“

“1st visit…. Services was quick… food was HOT, fresh and portions were wonderful We are new to Hamilton and this is now our go too Chinese food take out Thank you we also like how you pack the orders … The Lang Family“

“Absolutely amazing food and excellent customer service, I wish they had a Mr.dumpling in Kitchener,“

“Authentic, fresh, and spicy Sichuan food with lots of veggies, served by a gracious and knowledgeable owner.“

“Just ordered uber eats from 25min away
Food arrived piping hot and delicious.
Pleasantly surprised after the reviews.
Chicken for the spicy chicken was proper white meat with limited batter.
The sweet and sour pork was lean pork pieces and limited batter
Fried rice was proper. Good shrimp and egg, good texture, not sticky, not dry, wok fried properly…hard to find.
Thank you for the good meal“

“Food has been just as good for the last 20 years and service has also been great!“

“Service & atmosphere I can’t speak on because I got takeout & the interior of the restaurant isn’t for dining in, but food was made on time for my pick up.

As for the food, overall pretty good.
General & Orange good portions & flavour with a bit of kick on the general
Breaded id really recommend a sauce like the sweet and sour with it
Mixed Lacked variety of good vegetables had a lot of onion but seasoned well
really good in taste & portion. Pro Tip ask for a side of gravy and put it on top of your noodles

Nothing that will blow your socks off but just a really solid Chinese spot that will satisfy your craving & deliver on its fair price point.“

“Delicious!!! Authentic noodles and dumplings. Pan fried pork dumplings were the best thing ordered. Noodle soups were piping hot: we preferred the thin noodles in the wonton soup compared to the beef soup. The noodles were the best part of the soups - intense flavour in the noodles themselves. Prices are more than fair.“

“Been ordering from here for years. Food is always hot and delivery is quick.. Always pleasant on the phone. No complaints here... 👌“

“Ordered For the first time tonight at 4:30 and the food was fantastic. If I had to be critical I would say cook those delicious veg for less time for that snappy crunch and crisp up those chicken balls a tiny bit more. Deeelicious! Good job guys. I will definitely order again.“

“Got takeout from South China because I was craving some legit Chinese dishes. I ordered the stir fried beef with flat rice noodles and fried fish with creamy corn sauce and rice. Absolutely delicious and will now be my go to when I’m craving those comfort dishes!“

“We expected a party of approx 20 people on Jan 24/26 but due to the weather we had 3 people that flew out early from Pearson to Logan Airport and around 4 went home immediaely after the 'due' because they were from out of town. That left 13 of us. Since we had reserved, we still had a round table for 13 in the back of the restaurant. We decided to go with a family style format and actually ordered way too much food. The portions were large and tasty, from the egg rolls + spring rolls to a variety of dishes that satisfied everyone. We were extremely well looked after despite the restaurant getting busier. We were happy to see other parties in and out as January is very slow in the restaurant business. I dealt with someone on 3 occasions before we arrived and he assured me he woud make our dinner worth while. And he did. We ended up with one extra at the table designated for a comfortable 12 and that was okay. We also had our beloved SIL in a wheelchair to boot. We thought that would not be possible when we were expecting 20. Needles to say, we were not rushed, our food was excellent, we had good conversation around a round table and to add,.....it was a great experience. If ANYTHING, the room we were in could actual benefit from adding material or whatever on the walls, ceiling in order to cut way back on the noise. The table for 12 was far better than having 13 seated in a long table but noise barriers would help 100%. Thank you DRAGON COURT for an excellent experience You were recommeded by one of the folks who was at our table and did not disappoint.“

“Pays Homage to the OG Le Chinois downtown Hamilton with the flavours the Stand out is the Crispy Orange beef. I recall having this years ago in Hamilton and Burlington sit down restaurants. But happy to make the trek up near Limeridge to get my hands on this stuff. So crispy. Flavours bursting and enough zip to make your mouth a little spicy. Just wish they’d sprinkle some orange zest and add an organ slice or 2 to fancy it up. However well worth the visit alone. Owner is super friendly and funny. Always smiling no matter how busy he is. Very personable. Can’t say enough about this place. Hits in all the right spots !“

“We have been ordering from here for over 12 years. Consistently good food, friendly service and good portions!“

“I ordered from here via Skip The Dishes, where this place has a perfect 10 score. The food was amazing, great portions, egg rolls are SO good. We ordered the 4 person meal and we have so many leftovers - I can't wait for lunch tomorrow. My kids loved it, and so did the adults. Perfect delivery experience!“

“We had the Saozi Beef noodles, the Beijing dumplings and Braised Chicken on Rice. The food was really flavourful and delicious with a homemade quality. The beef noodles dish is on the spicier side so if you have a low spice tolerance order with caution. The atmosphere accompanied the homemade quality of food with a home like environment. Our server was very kind, water is self serve which worked really well for us. The tip is included in your meal cost but very well deserved.“

“I go back to this old restaurant every year for gatherings with friends. Memories from when I first came to Canada~ There is no need for a menu when ordering food. Recommended cold dishes: tiger dish and intractable diseases; vegetarian dishes: stir-fried cabbage noodles and meat dishes: chicken pot and grilled skewers. good“

“My wife and I were regular customers of their restaurant from the late 1980's to the early 2000's. We have always enjoyed their food . We occasionally get takeout from them and still enjoy their great food . They still have a great menu and great specials.“

“First time trying Cheung's Chinese,
Hands down the best , we even substituted for a different dish , the food was ready when I get there , we ordered the dinner for 4 and we have leftovers, we found our new Chinese restaurant. I wish I could give them a 10 star.“

“Very convenient and nice spot to grab a plate if you’re near by or just living in the neighborhood, food looks vibrant, eggroll is huge, tempuras are amazing here.
Most negative reviews feel like people who are just entitled, one is complaining about their DoorDash driver even though that has nothing to do with the restaurant, don’t think he’s smart enough to realize but that made me want to leave a review to justify this place“

“We ordered the full roast pig Filipino style and it was the best lechon we've had. It was pre-cut in perfectly sized pieces and it was delicious! This roast pig was the hit of our party and every piece was eaten. Thank you so much! We'll definitely be ordering again.“

“On this day 07/23/2025 about 4:00 P.M. we were at Cente Mall, dropped into the Food Court, we were both a bit hungry, wife got the consommé soup (it was piping hot and a nice tasty broth), I on the other hand went with the rice or chow Mein with (1) item for $11.59 + HST. I got the Sesame Chicken with the Chow Mein combined together. It was just plain Chow Mein, and Sesame Chicken was nicely batter with a sweet taste to the sauce that covered it. The food was tasty, but only thing preventing it giving it a 5 star rating, although the food looks heated and hot in their containers (stainless steel), the food was at best a tad warm? If this food was served hot, I would rate it higher. Nice friendly service on board, cheerfully serving the customers on their requests. Plenty of food served, I’ll have enough to take home and heat it up, to my expectations.“

“EXCELLENT. Ordered randomly being new to Hamilton - and it is the best Chinese food we have ever had. Generous serving size, piping hot and absolutely delicious! Will be our new "go to" and have already recommended to friends.“

“My experience was great. We haven’t been there for a while, and it was one of our best food orders from there. Nice Cantonese dishes. Efficient fast and well prepared. And a pleasant lady host who answered the phone took our order four combination plate orders (x2#3 )(1x#4 )and (1x#5) Friday April 4 2026 later in the evening. A nice local restaurant on the upper west mountain. Thank you“

“Ok let me start by saying my family had gone to one and only one Chinese food establishment for the last 25yrs. They sadly closed this year so we had to search for a new place and I can officially say we have found our new FAVORITE spot!!!

The service (I ordered pickup) was very professional and pleasant.
When I arrived to pick up food, had a nice conversation while I waited and it was just an overall great first experience.

The food was fantastic! Everything we ordered had great taste and the portions were good as well.

We will definitely be ordering more from them in the future!!!“
