Four and a half stars is just about right here. Great value, good to great food, delightful service. The food was almost perfect, save for the blandness of the Singapore noodles. I'm guessing they cater to unadventurous suburban tastes, given their location. I'm going to ask that they kick it up a notch next order.

I've been here twice so far. I've always had a good experience. This hot pot isn't all you can eat…read more You need to order each dish separately plus pay for access to the sauce station. The broth is flavorful, the meat is high quality and with large portions. I don't like having to pay for the sauce station but overall this is my favorite hot pot in Ottawa presently. We got a two sided soup, 2 plates of meat, bamboo, tofu, lotus root, cabbage, mushrooms and access to the sauce and the price came to about $100 before tax and tip.

It ends up being more expensive than other AYCE locations when you tally up the dishes, but you do have the option to choose "half portions" (menu pricing is for full portion). Eating what we normally would at Happy Lamb, our bill came to about $187 with tip for 2 people. Note: $20 VIP card for VIP pricing does not apply to half portions, only full.

Having grown up in Markham, a city where every other restaurant serves Cantonese food, I have very…read morehigh expectations of authentic Cantonese food. Ng's has become the staple option in Ottawa and by Ottawa standards, is likely one of the best the city has to offer. I've been completely turned off by Ottawa dim sum so my review is based on their dishes. The standard go-to items are pepper salt squid, sweet and sour pork, seafood chow mein, stir fried king mushrooms with pork jowl and the taro duck. Most of the dishes have wok hei, the distinct charred aroma that skilled chefs capture through the ingredients and oil meeting the intense heat of a wok flame. The flavour and quality have been consistent through the years and the menu is large and well priced though occasionally the food is a touch more greasy or lacking in wok hei. Seafood specials can be found on a big chalkboard on one of the walls, though it is only written in Chinese so you'll have to ask about it if you can't read it. PS. 10% discount for cash payments!

The potstickers were fantastic and you could tell were made in house. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the price for just 4. I should've stopped my order there, but I made the mistake of adding some General Chicken. It was made using dark meat which is fine, but the meat itself was very fatty and grisly. The sauce had good flavor, but I couldn't get past the texture of the chicken. I ended up only eat 3-4 pieces and throwing out the rest. I wonder if there's an option for white meat chicken instead.

Literally unable to chew it. Fine, restaurants have bad days. Could be a fluke right? I call today to request a refund and the man refused to refund me, yelled at me, questioned whether I have ever had general Tao's chicken before and was generally extremely rude.
