Just had dinner there with my husband and the waitress recommended the most delicious sizzling oysters in our life! The seafood was exceptionally fresh and service made me feel like I’m at home. Eggplant was very clean and healthy. Red bean soup for dessert made just like my mom. Cantonese person here. Highly recommend!
Food was delicious with balanced flavors. Today, the giant clam sashimi special was definitely a highlight. On top of that, the staff are incredibly friendly. Bonus points if you speak Cantonese :) Definitely the most authentic Chinese restaurant in this area.
For around 20$ per plate, you can pick from a wide variety of items in their menu. The portions are pretty big. The food itself is pretty normal in my opinion. Nothing was outstanding but nothing was bad either. The flavours were good and the quality was fine. I do feel like the duck was a bit dry, especially for a dish that cost around 70$ for 2 plates. I was hoping for the quality to be a bit better. The service was friendly but a bit slow. Even though there were only 2 tables that night, us included, it took around 20 minutes for the food to start coming out one at a time. Moreover, the waitress was mocking us a bit when we were picking our items from the menu. We did change our order a couple of times and we are sorry about it but I feel like it was a bit disrespectful to let out those mocking comments. The restaurant is pretty spacious and pretty cosy too so it was an overall good dining experience.
Beautiful experience, food and excellent choice. [Original] Belle expérience, nourriture et choix excellents.

Felt rushed by the servers
One of the best Cantonese style restaurants in the greater Montreal area! The food is delicious and very authentic. The restaurant is quaint and very nostalgic. Also the washrooms are very clean.
Highly recommend!
Great Chinese family food. The cost is on the high side, but it's worth the price.
We'll be back.

I ordered black pepper beef and Hokkien rice. It was a bit salty. I hope it’s not so salty next time.

Restaurant offers a menu which is good value. However, the servers often try to upsell by suggesting alternatives to what you intended to order. These may be a similar dish which may not be on the menu but the servers do no tell you that their suggestion is multiple times the price of the original order. You feel scammed when paying. I will no longer be patronizing this restaurant.

Did not expect to find one of the best Seafood restaurant in this little commercial place. There is only one small restroom here for about max 50 clients. This place has minimum decor and you will sit right on the wood seats of old chairs.
Despite all, you will not regret to have a chance to try very special seafood meals in Brossard.
For those who loves to drive six hours long to find the best seafood restaurant in Toronto, save yourself a trip and let me know how you love this restaurant.
This is a great authentic Chinese resto... set seafood meal for 10 costs around 500, but amazing quality.

The food was good and all the dishes came out around the same time. Unlike a previous reviewer, I did not notice any over saltiness in the food. I’m giving the food rating a 4 star since the taste is more or less the same as their competitors in the area
The service is where they should improve.
1) when ordering, the waiter was constantly trying to upsell us. Despite telling her we wanted some simple, she acted like she was getting a sales commission.
2) unlike their nearby competitors, the dishes were served in smaller plates or larger plates that were only 70% full. It was very noticeable and puzzling since the ingredients in our dishes were not expensive.
3) they calculate tips on top of tax. The government is clamping down on this shortly and I hope they stop soon.
4) I asked if they had complementary dessert, they said yes. Minutes later, 1/2 a small bowl of red bean dessert was served and we were all supposed to share it
In summary, on the surface, this looks like a family style restaurant, you want to help to be successful. The food was on par but, the portion size could be larger. However, multiple hints of greed and cost cutting erases any nostalgic feeling one might have from eating at a smaller family restaurant.
