The hint of 5-spice amongst other aromatic spices including chili oil, garlic and preserved Chinese condiments are sublime. The noodles are perfect, good QQ. Meat perfectly prepared. The Chinese beef "jerky" is my go-to here. Never disappoints. My hubby loved his beef brisket bowl. The smashed cukes in Xiaoxing vinegar were perfect and the smoked taofu a delicate, refined accompaniment to this five star meal. Restaurant is spotless. Staff are busy but pleasant. Highly recommend their plum juice too. I bought one before I left and it hit the spot. Plummy and authentic. Barely sweet - the way it should be. This will be on our usual list of regular restaurants. And very reasonably priced.

You do not feel crammed and I like the windows everywhere. Be it to people watch as they walk by or to look into the kitchen. I like the open kitchen where you see the staff stuff all the dumplings in front of you. I truly enjoy the pan fried dumplings and the egg roll with Chinese cruller. I have found the dumpling skin to be the perfect texture and thickness to offer a good tooth feel but delicate enough to allow the filling shine. The egg roll is so refreshing. The flavours are rich and complex but oh so good The staff are plenty friendly and efficient from order to expediting the food to your table to enjoy

The owners always greet us with a smile and serve up piping hot freshly cooked food. So far we have tried curry chicken on rice, ginger and scallion beef, and salt and pepper squid. They don't skimp on portions and season well too. I especially liked that the squid was pineappled(?) making sure the batter and seasoning stuck really well to all the nooks and crannies. The prices are so reasonable too, for 2026 as well as for the neighbourhood. If you stay while they cook, your hair will be full of wok hei :) We are so looking foward to trying pretty much everything on the menu!

Overall, I was hoping that the buns at this place would be above average especially given the…read moreratings and reviews however, I was really disappointed. I tried out types of buns. Specifically I tried the specialty and seafood bun. I found them to be quite average tasting. The bun wasn't really the soft texture I was looking for and the filling tasted pretty bland. As this place specialized in their steamed buns, I had much higher expectations for their flavours. Especially located in the core Chinatown area, you can find better buns at other places such as the bakeries nearby. Unfortunately, I would not revisit again.

After a survey we decided to try some potato noodles - something we haven't had before. We didn't know if we were going to love them so we got one soup to share; potato noodles with ground pork and a fried egg. To start off the noodles are very thick and very chewy. They are a sensation unto themselves. The ground pork was really flavorful but we jazzed it all up with some hot pepper oil - available at a condiments station at the counter. The fried egg was a great second protein and a smattering of bok choy gave the soup an occasional hint of veggie freshness. The soup just got better and better as we ate it. My eating partner noted that the noodles get a little softer as they sit in the soup for longer (which she liked) - but they retain a big chew till the end (which I liked). It was delicious. You have to be pretty comfortable to share a soup, and by the end, as the soup disappeared, we were butting heads to get down into that bowl! The sign of a good soup is tussling over the final bites. In the end the one soup was big enough for the both of us, which was kind of sad because we wanted to try more things. So now we definitely have to come back here soon.

We ordered beef with Chinese broccoli (gai lan), fried chicken (half), stir fried shrimp. They also gave us complimentary soup. The food quality was mediocre, but the portions were big for the price they charged. They definitely didn't skimp out on the beef in the gai lan dish, nor did they skimp out on the onion for the shrimp dish

**Ordered through UberEats so can't make any comments about the restaurant's atmosphere or…read moreservice** We ordered the green beans with minced pork, sweet and sour pork, and salted egg chicken wings. Surprisingly, the green beans were our favourite!! The beans maintained its crunch, and worked very well with the salty savoury black bean sauce. I feel there could've been more ground pork but that's just my personal preference. (8/10) The salted egg chicken wings were also a winner. Crispy, salty, wings with the pungent flavour of salted egg. They were delicious! I will say that it was kind of odd we only received flats, no drums. I didn't mind though because I'm more of a flats person anyways but I can see some people being disappointed about that. (8/10) The sweet and sour pork had many raving reviews online but I was unfortunately let down. Not sure if it was just a bad batch but the sauce was overwhelmingly sweet and lacked flavour. (5/10) Overall, it was an enjoyable meal and I would definitely try dining in in the future!

This take-out only place is in a small plaza across from Leacock school. The plaza itself is plain looking and the takeout joint is tucked into a small corner on the east end of the plaza. We got there and we were greeted by a lady who is friendly and cheery. We placed our order for noodles and shortly after we got our food. We took the food home and started feasting. Add all the oil and other condiments is a must. My wife highly recommends the chilly oil, very aromatic and not as spicy as it looks. We were thoroughly satisfied with the yummy noodles! And yes we plan to come back soon.
