We come from Hawaii, where there is a plethora of Chinese and or Asian restaurants, so we were quite picky about our Chinese food.

It was lunch so I got basically the lunch special choice of 3. I got vegetable chow mein, they use the very thin noodles which makes so much difference they are so much better than the big fat round noodles you get at a low of Chinese spots in America. The fried rice was good, reminds me of old fashioned fried rice. The honey garlic chicken was good nice crisp to it. Overall good meal, not super fine dining, not super authentic but good eats. The vibes were immaculate, the host had epic 80's rocker hair I loved it.

The wonton soup was to die for. So flavorful and fresh. The wontons melted in the mouth. The chowmein was good but felt a little bit over-sauteed. I enjoyed the chopseuy though. It was perfectly seasoned and nicely paired with the chowmein. The prawn tempura style side dishes were average. So was the honey chilli meatballs. The quantity was a lot and definitely sent us home with takeaways for the next day.

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE 3.5 stars: as fellow Yelpers have…read morenoted: the name of the restaurant is a bit of a mystery, as none of the cuisine comes from Hong Kong; they serve a very different style of Chinese food more reminiscent of the Szechuan/Sichuan region in China. While the family-run business serves dishes that are more authentic, one might find of it limited appeal if you're looking for non-spicy dishes (or you have young children), environment, or value. === 2. FOOD Green Beans and Peppers While the flavour is good, you cannot order this without spice/heat and so this makes it a bit of a non-starter for some (many?) young children. The crunch of the vegetables is there, but the portion size for $20 in a takeout container is not. Shrimp and Celery Thankfully, this is the least-spicy dish and mostly edible by young children. The Shrimp was nicely deep-fried with a thin coating of batter; this is a solid choice even if the portion size is small (well below fill line of a smaller takeout container for $20). === 3. SERVICE They serve you in English or Mandarin and overall it is pleasant. The food was prepared in a reasonable amount of time. === 4. ENVIRONMENT This is more of a hole-in-the-wall: you're not coming here for the ambience (which is limited to plain white walls, red tables/chairs, and fluorescent tube lighting interestingly mounted sideways on the walls rather than the ceiling). You could probably fit groups ranging in size from 2 through 8 but I'm not sure I'd bring anyone in a wheelchair or baby stroller in here easily. Parking is available in the back.

It may be a hidden gem tucked away in Gordon Head! === 2. FOOD For this takeout order we tried... Shrimp Swirl Egg on Rice: As you can see in the pic, there's not a lot of swirl egg in there, but over the dish was pretty good without being too salty. Szechuan Green Beans: They were decent; good flavour, and in my (subjective) opinion, not too spicy. === 3. SERVICE It seems like one can converse in English or Chinese; the staff certainly spoke Chinese to each other even if most of the patrons were non-Chinese. They all wear masks - in a respectful manner per the Chinese culture. Service was reasonably quick. === 4. ENVIRONMENT Was this a western diner-style family restaurant before? I'm not sure, but it doesn't fit the typical Chinese restaurant stereotype. Dark interior with the old-school lights over the tables suggest it was perhaps an ABC Country restaurant or some other diner-ish establishment before. Regardless, those with wheelchairs and baby strollers can fit in just fine and parking is somewhat plentiful outside in the shopping complex lot.

It took calling the server three times before she came to take our order. During the meal, when she was helping to portion the wontons for us, she deliberately spilled a large puddle of soup on the table. After serving, she walked away without making any effort to clean it up. I stopped her and politely pointed at the puddle on the table, asking if she had any napkins. She handed me three napkins with a blank expression, threw them down, and left without cleaning the table, and without even offering a simple apology. However, she was very warm and attentive toward the other nearby tables, and when serving them, there were no issues like spilled soup. Her behavior, which appeared to involve racial discrimination, seriously affected my dining experience. Therefore, I left her a zero tip and truthfully wrote about my experience on the app. What makes it even more absurd is that this was a Chinese restaurant.
