The decor might not be much, but it's my solid go-to for good, home cooked Cantonese food. Just a tip, order from the Chinese menu. What is it you might ask? The menu for Asian people who know what they're ordering. Yes I know it sounds horrible, but they have a standard "Western" menu chock full of "chinese" dishes known in North America. And I say that in air quotes cause most of that stuff were invented here and actually has little to no relation to actual Chinese cuisine. It just makes life easier that way. Ginger beef, sweet and sour pork.. Yeah the good deep fried stuff covered in syrupy alien sauce as we know it. That stuff is also delicious, but if you're trying to save on the calories and eat the good stuff, then you need to order from the Chinese menu. For example, when I make ginger beef at home, it is beef and broccoli with a gingery soy sauce sauteed, not deep fried. Without the disgusting amount of cornstarch and msg in it. So on to the food review. So far I've had the yang chow fried rice, sweet and sour pork, tofu with minced meat hotpot, oyster and onion hotpot, salted fish fried rice and the bbq duck. All fantastic. All reasonably priced for the portions you're getting. You're definitely getting at least 2.5 meals per person for a family of 4. Well in our house, it's more like 1.5 meals for a family of 2, only cause I like it that much and can't stop eating it. This place is comparable to any reputable small eatery in Richmond, Vancouver and I don't give that compliment lightly. If you're not feeling too adventurous, definitely start with the yang chow fried rice. They make it with baby shrimp, scrambled eggs and diced Chinese sausage...the sausage alone is reason to order it. The most important thing is you can taste the "wok hei" in the fried rice. That's the flavour imparted by a searingly hot wok to the rice. If description of this foodie term doesn't mean much to you, then all you need to know is the chef knows his shit and can work that wok. And therefore anything you order from that wok is gonna be goddamn delicious. The other thing of worthy note is the bbq duck. It has the right amount of sauce to fat to meat ratio, it blew my mind. I highly regret getting only the half order but hey, Chinese New Year is fast coming up and I'll be having it again. Note that the hotpot stuff might be a little to foreign to most in Regina, so maybe save that for when you're feeling adventurous. Hotpots can take on a jello-like consistency and look, so it doesn't look that appetizing but when you're in the mood, it can be healthy comfort food. Try it on a takeout night!

I've had two disappointing experiences at this restaurant. The first was a few months ago. I was…read moreexcited to finally find a place in Regina offering risotto as a main course. Unfortunately, what I received was nothing close to risotto--it looked like mashed potatoes with cream cheese. When I asked the waitress what type of rice was used, she didn't know and had to check with the chef. She returned saying it was Jasmine rice. For anyone who appreciates authentic cuisine, risotto should be made with Arborio rice, cooked al dente, and prepared with the right ingredients. Calling that dish "risotto" was misleading. Despite that, I decided to give the restaurant another chance because it's close to my workplace. Today, however, I had an extremely uncomfortable experience. I had made a reservation for two yesterday and requested specific dishes (soup and salad). This morning, due to work commitments, I asked the other person to cancel the reservation. Shortly after, I received a call from the owner. His reaction shocked me--he was rude, aggressive, and argumentative, even as I apologized. Instead of trying to understand the situation or find a solution, he kept escalating the conversation. When I tried to mention customer service, he was completely dismissive, so I ended the call. I overlooked my first bad experience and kept going back, but after today, I will never return. Think twice before visiting--if this is how the owner treats customers, imagine how he treats his staff.

This quirky and vibrant restaurant has a prime location in downtown Regina. It's also very family friendly. And the staff are very attentive, which makes me very happy to see. I ordered the Bacon & Buttermilk Waffle ($18). It was good but very sweet. I was in love with giant chunks of bacon IN the waffles. In addition, the presentation was very nice and the flavours worked great together. However, as a natural savoury breakfast lover, I'm glad I went out of my comfort zone but I don't think I would order this again. I'm happy to report that my family members that ordered other sweet items were saying how excited they were to come back again! They loved it and can't wait to try something new next time. Needless to say, my family and I will definitely be returning.

This was my first trip to Regina and man, am I glad my wife and I came here to eat. Everything from…read morethe food and cocktails to the service to the general decor and vibe of this place were superb. My wife was celebrating her birthday so we indulged in a chef curated four course meal with wine and cocktail pairings and everything was an absolute hit. For our meal, the courses were structured with a few appetizers for the first course, a pasta dish for the second, a fish entree (I requested no red meats) and then a dessert to top it all off. Our appetizers included the house whipped ricotta, the heirloom tomato and compressed melon salad and the seared albacore tuna. I have to say, I've never had melon as good as the melon in the tomato and melon salad. The depth of flavor they achieved with by compressing it with oils and herbs was remarkable, I would come back for that alone and I normally don't like melon. The seared tuna was exceptional, as was the whipped ricotta. All of this was paired with a light sparkling citrus cocktail, which I unfortunately cannot remember what it had in it, but it was my personal favorite of the night. For the pasta course, we had an agnolotti pasta that was filled with what I believe was a delicious ricotta filling and a light tomato sauce, paired with a Cabernet Sauvignon. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was fresh and herbaceous and it was the right amount to leave you satisfied, but not feeling too full. The cab sauv wasn't over oaked, like most California cabs, but still had that traditional peppery cab sauv taste that paired so well with the pasta sauce. Our main entree was the la ronge walleye paired with a Sauvignon Blanc. The walleye and potatoes were delicious, however I did feel like the fish was overpowered by the spring pea velouté, which was unfortunate but personally, I'm not a massive fan of peas. However, if you like them, this is a great option and the quality of the walleye was top notch. The dessert course was a pistachio & coffee semifreddo with boozy cherries and the cocktail I would describe as sort of a play on an espresso martini, but way better. Both were fantastic! I was really able to detect the pistachio, which I assumed would be masked by the coffee, but I was pleasantly surprised. On top of that, we were also generously given an order of the madeleines for my wife's birthday and we absolutely adored them. They had a light citrus note to them that really enhanced the flavor. Our server was also excellent and very kind. We told him we were from the US and it was our first time in Regina and he gave us a bunch of recommendations for things to check out around the area. The four course meal and cocktails were a wonderful value for the price, I would highly recommend it and I'm excited to come here again!
