It's a beautiful restaurant. Almost a bit of a high end pub feel. It was Happy Hour so I ordered a draft light beer and California Rolls, followed by Chicken Lettuce Wraps. The rolls tasted fresh and delicious. The Chicken Wraps were tasty but had way too much crispy wontons for my liking. Wish there was more chicken instead. Regardless, they were tasty. The staff were friendly and attentive. A Manager even came by to greet me and check up on me just as I received my food. Overall was a very pleasant experience and I look forward to trying other menu items including their Dim Sum.

Friday night date-night turned out spectacular after choosing to dine at JUU KU!!…read more This place was unexpectedly impressive. It had a moody vibe with red ambient lighting and an upscale edgy sushi bar with really unique, oversized art all around. Prices were fair ranging between $12 - $35 per dish depending on what you order. Service was impeccable. Our hostess, server, and all of the staff in general were warm and friendly. Our server was able to articulate the specials and entice us to try the mango salmon roll which was smoky, creamy and tropical. Sushi tasted fresh as we also ordered the salmon sashimi. Watching the sushi chefs interact with each other and have fun while preparing such meticulous meals was entertaining and mouthwatering. My absolute favourite dish was the Rock Shrimp Tempura in a creamy spicy garlic chili sauce. These were perfectly cooked and the prawns were huge and juicy...came with a hearty salad underneath them too. The dim sum deserves a shout-out as well. We ordered the Truffle Lamb and Prawn Shumai Dumplings and it was the freshest dim sum I've ever had in Canada. Reminded me of when I was in Singapore. We will definitely return!!

It was a good first experience and now I would like to go back there to experience the rest of their menu and other side of the restaurant.

The food is very unique and a Fusion of 6 countries surrounding the mountains. I personally loved any of the soups, any of the momos, the cottage cheese dishes and the curried goat! We tried most things on the menu. And the famous items seem to be the steamed momos, chicken lollipops, the Kung pao cottage cheese, orange chicken, naanza and the parathas. We left stuffed both times with enough leftovers for 2 meals because the portions are deceivingly large. . Located in the Southside. The place is in a new building with beautiful pictures and videos of Mount everest. It has a beautiful unique charm to it and I think it would be a nice place for a date or a bunch of friends since it has a cool atmosphere. Definetly a must try if you want to try south west asian food!

I went to this place today and tried a few dishes with my friend: crispy tofu, tomato beef noodles,…read morepork intestines, beef noodles, etc. The food was delicious, well-made, and the only thing was my beef noodle, which I didn't take a picture of, was not salty enough. The service was very generous and kind. The overall environment is very traditional Hong Kong Chinese. And, it was not pricey at all! Six dishes in total costed me 65 dollars plus tax and tips. Recommended!

This is the second time I visited the restaurant. I have reviewed this place during my first visit…read moreand I decided to leave a second review. I ordered the Curry Beef Brisket Noodle again during my second visit because the dish left a great impression on me during my first visit. The Curry Beef Brisket Noodle is a must-try and I definitely recommend this if you are visiting this restaurant. During my first visit, I did not have the chance to try their satay skewer and I decided to order a chicken satay skewer to try. The chicken satay was good. The meat was tender and nice, and not too burnt or tough unlike some of the satay that i tried. It came with a satay dipping sauce, but the sauce was not as good as I thought. Perhaps it did not contain peanuts due to possible allergy concerns so the sauce was not as fragrant as I expected satay sauce to be. But still it was good, and the skewer wasn't too expensive as well. Great restaurant and definitely one of the hidden gems in Edmonton.

Our server Karla was fantastic she was prompt with our drink order and taking our food order. She even packed up what we wanted to take home. We loved the decor of the restaurant inside and out. Very well planned. For our drinks, my wife had the Coconut Mojito and I had a Rising Dragon. Amazing libations!! Tasted so good. Our food order was Changs Spicy Chicken with fried rice and Pad Thai with shrimp extra spicy. The spicy chicken had a sweet chili sauce and the most tender of white meat and the fried rice tied it all together. My pad Thai was balanced for flavor, nice and spicy and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. Loved that. We will definitely be back even though we live 40 minutes away.

She kept checking in and filling beverages. establishment: great parking outside. Nice large venue with great decor. Would be beautiful for a special event. Lots of tables (booths and stand alones). food: my first time here. And I have heard so many good things about this place but I thought it was just ok. For an Asian restaurant I expected more flavour and even more spice. Food was quite bland all around. Portions and presentation was nice.

Honestly, I was a little toasted by now so I am hesitant to give ratings. We tried: Baijiu barbie: 8/10 Strawberry Yum Yum: 7.5/10 Pisco Sour: 9/10 boyfriend thought it was better than at the Alchemy (smoother). Ha Long Bae: 9/10. Boyfriend loved it and gives it a 10/10. Drunken Dumplings: too spicy for me but boyfriend loved them. 7/10 for me. Very small portion, just a small bowl with 6 dumplings in it.

The bad dragon drink was nice, layers of flavor that ginger and dragon fruit go nicely together.

Love the 63 Ave location, so decided to come here to see if it's any different. Had the lunch…read morespecial which is 5 items for $15.95. I think the major difference is getting a free vegetable basket, which is great so you can load up on the other items. Was pretty stoked they put pumpkin slices in there. Love those! You still get a free ice cream dessert as well. They also offer the AYCE for lunch. I didn't check the price, but I'm sure it's the same as the other location ($30-$32). We had the bone broth and Thai curry broth. Both were flavourful and the curry had a good kick to it. So good! And I love the peanut butter paste! The peanut sauce at the 63 Ave is a bit watery compared to this one. The staff were also great and friendly. The only issue I have is that it's farther away for me... but you know, for the price, quality, and experience... I'll make the trek out for sure! Also, there's a bubble tea place right next door, if that's what you're into. PS. Don't mind the sketchy area... area seems a bit runned down, but you definitely won't notice once you start eating. This is the same for the other location coincidentally lol.

The location is not the best, but if you can get past the crowd and the front door it's worth it…read more We came late at night, right before the kitchen was about to close (which we didn't know about until we walked in). And we also came with a very large group. Honestly they had all the reason to kick us out, but the staff took care of us regardless. Since we were late we just picked the soup broth and 5 add-on's. I got the Herb and Lamb broth. It was delicious, savory, and hearty. And for the add-on's, I picked the sliced Beef Sirloin, Enoki Mushroom, Napa Cabbage, Fried Tofu and Flat Rice Noodles. They didn't have Fried Tofu so I asked to substitute for Fried Bean Curd instead. Looking back at this now, I'm glad (and I'm sure the kitchen was too) that we only picked 5 things. AYCE would've been too much and too overwhelming with all the options there. And honestly, they gave us so much for the 5 things we ordered. It was a whole spread of meat and veggies. I was actually very impressed. Portion size was huge. I was also impressed by the service we received. It was late, but they really took care of us as patrons. It's a 4.5/5 for me. Definitely one of the best service I've received at a sit-down restaurant/food business and I wish this place success.
