The staff are pleasant, the food is great and in large quantity, one combo 2 plate can last me as a widower for pretty much three meals, and I find the prices are great compared to other places I've gone to, the only thing I would like to see and I will not take a star off for this, is more sweet and sour chicken balls in the Combination 2, I only got 3 sweet and sour chicken bslls and you guys make them great.

I love shrimp, but to discover that I couldn't eat it, that's a huge letdown. I would give 2.5 stars but I rounded it to three because at least a lot of the food was good.

Good experience overall. My son & I stumbled upon this place while driving around looking for…read moresomewhere to eat with decent ratings (I would give it a mid four... 4.5 to be exact... we need some intermediate marking options Yelp!). Here's why: PROS: Location - off a main road, easy to find, parking is free Menu options - Good selection of items Taste & Presentation of food - Very good... food was tasty (with the exception of the Pad Thai in my opinion) and the seafood was fresh. Portions were good too. Service - Very attentive, quick and professional staff; conversation toward the end made them even better! Value - Price for all you can eat was very reasonable, worth it if you ask me! CONS: Ambiance - Floor was slippery (literally the entire floor surface, as though it had buildup of substance, it was odd.). Also the seating and general look of the place is quite old & outdated. IN SUMMARY: Overall ambiance is a factor in deciding on a restaurant, but is more important to me for a special occasion or on date night. When I dine out, taste, service and value are what mean the most to me. As for this restaurant, I would for sure go back! It's a great little local spot. As I upload the pics I'm also getting hungry again and that's always a good sign!!!

I was looking for a bite in the downtown area with someone and at 8.30pm is the worst time to be…read morehunting for a bite. Unlike the Toronto area that has night owl establishments prepandemic open from 11pm to 2am, Guelph does not offer these services. So one of the few places open was this establishment, when you walk in, you're invited by a hot serve bench, ayce options starting at $4 (if you est two kinds it goes up to $5 and incrementally increases by $1 with more selection. I did not try this. There are some seatings around for 2 and 4 patrons. We ordered the red bbq pork with pineapple and baby bok choy with rice. The rice tastes like it was recooked from yesterday (not spoiled but certainly would not last night -could be from sitting on the rice cooker all evening), the bok choy some had some...squishy sides and it could just be bruising from handling, it was garlicky and slightly over cooked. The red bbq was edible, more on the sweet side. The whole variety came up to be $20 easily feeding 3 to 4 people. I am an Asian patron, ordered in english, maybe I'll try in Cantonese next time? Its definitely a hidden gem if you're looking for a $4 bite that's an ayce Canadian-Chinese, as an alternative to pizza, burgers, poutine, sandwiches... Oh yes they seem to have signage that they take University of Guelph meal plan.
