    雙菇雞 Chicken with black mushroom and bamboo
    Jeani K.

    This restaurant is like a factory churning out run in the mill Chinese food at a fast pace. Most of the dishes are mediocre at best. It gets super crowded at lunch time during the weekdays but you get your order fairly fast. Good for those who only have an hour or less lunch break from work. Most of the patrons are suits anyway due to its prime Enge train station location in the business district. The chef's recommendations are a hit or miss. Best to pick out a couple of stables in the menu and stick to them. They could serve better rice like jasmine rice with their dishes but they don't to keep costs low. The house tea at 5.50 a pop is definitely a rip off considering how stingy they are with tea leafs. It's like drinking boiled water with a slight hint of tea taste. There's also a takeaway cart in front of the restaurant if you're just looking to grab a quick bite. But I wouldn't recommend it.

    I gave this place 3 stars because the food was reasonably priced, considering the fact that this place is within Zurich. The interior is clean, the restaurant closes at 11 pm (which suits our later dinner schedule). The restaurant is separated 2 sections, the section to the right of the bar is cheaper than the portion to the left of the bar. Here, each dish comes with a bowl of rice, with the price ranging from CHF 14-22. On the left of the bar, each dish is about CHF 10 more expensive and comes as a traditional plate of food without a side of rice. We ordered 6 dishes to share amongst the 6 of us and the portion was just right. The chef is a Cantonese chef, and the dishes were mostly very well done. We had the stir fried beef with onion (pretty good), sze Chuan pork (very tasty- would recommend it), red cooked fish (which wasn't that good), mushroom chicken with bamboo shoots (pretty good, then bamboo shoots were not foul smelling), char siew pork (wouldn't really recommended it as it came with a funny smell), stir fried pork with mixed vegetables (just ok). Food came out very quickly. They don't serve tap water (so do bring your own water). I would recommend it if you want a decent Chinese meal for the night.

The dishes were freshly made and great portion. It's fun coz most of their tables are long and there's a chance you're sharing that table with someone else so it's kinda fun meeting people!!

Within an hour the whole place was full, and rightfully so. The menu is very expansive. Over 100 items. Started off with a bowl of chicken and sweet corn soup. It was delicious. Umami with the contrast of the sweet corn. Would def recc. Dim sum combo platter. Came with a variety of dumplings. It was unfortunately the least favorite item. Could be a different type of region or style of dumplings that I ma not used to, but did not love the taste overall. The wrapper was very thick and flavor was a little bland. Flat Rice noodles: Delicious. Big portion, flavorful, came with lots of protein and veggies. No complaints whatsoever. Forgot the name of it, but the serevr said it was one of the most popular dishes they have. Some sort of beef dish that our server said was North Chinese style. Flavorful, a bit saltier then would like, but not an issue once you pair with rice. Just note that tap water is 2 franks per cup. Overall would definitely come back if I was ever in the area.

The outdoor seating was wonderful, especially for us first time visitors to Zurich - to "street watch" - especially on a lovely summer evening. Service was friendly and we were extremely appreciative of the fast service - we were hungry !!! I had been very specific that we wanted "regular water" but they charged me and my colleague for mineral water (4.00€ per person) which was disappointing. We ordered one order of the Veggie Spring rolls (8.00€) Super Small portion (see picture) & only 2 pieces. My colleague ordered the Khao Suey with Shrimp (29.00€) which was extremely well presented and delicious. My red curry (vegetarian - 23.00€) was pretty to look at BUT I asked them to make it spicy and it wasn't very spicy. However it was warm and comforting and I was hungry enough that I pretty much ate everything that is pictured. In all, I went in with not very high expectations but left satisfied and wonderfully full and it was a great way to end my Day 1 in Zurich.

Small rolls & only 2 pieces. My main was the Sweet & Sour Chicken (27.00€). That was delicious. Very tasty with a side of white rice. I would have preferred brown rice. Our small group of 3 ppl (2 alcohol servings + 3 mains & 3 apples) cost a mere 142.50€! That's almost $215 Cdn. Very costly meal for Cdn standards! BTW...it was 4.00€ for tap water!

There were a couple of things I didn't care for. Dogs were welcomed into this tiny little place and there was a dog wandering between our tables. As I am somewhat fearful of dogs this was concerning. At one point another dog entered and the dog near me ran over to the entrance. The two dogs were barking and growling. Finally the new dog was taken out and the patron near me went over and retrieved her dog. It had a leash but she wasn't holding the end. There is a sister restaurant across the street and prepared food was being carried uncovered across the street to be served and some plates were brought in for service on our side. Fortunately my food was not carried open across the street. I would have had a serious issue with food handling procedures if that had occurred. Overall our food and service was fine. I would likely select a different Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood instead of a return visit. There are plenty of other options available.

    Same as the owners at Ach'i, but with more touches in its decor and also located in the seedy,…read morered-light district area right in front of the Militär-/Langstrasse bus stop, across the street from Gregory's Pub. A perfect stop before Friday night karaoke, one would say? ;-) Fun times ahead! There are lots of similarities in the offering vs Ach'i (to keep this simple pls look at my review for Ach'i), but then I'd say that this menu, unlike Ach'i, sticks to mainly the authentic Chinese food dishes (Northern inspired). Also there are a few dishes that they offer here that I don't see on the Ach'i menu, like the spicy noodle soup with minced beef that was suggested and it turned out to be pretty good. Quite spicy so if you have a sensitive stomach, save it for something else! Also the menu is a bit hard to follow here, haven't really figured out the classification system to efficiently find things (I.e. where's the fried noodles section? Where's the soup noodles section? Where's the stir fry section?). That was a bit annoying vs at Achi I felt I could find things easier. Prob also at Ach'i the menu had photos and this place being more upscale style, doesn't showcase photos of food. The decor here is also a bit more risque than Ach'i. I'd like to say it's more upscale than Ach'i, while a bit meeting borderline kitschy. Last time I was here, they have the best servers from Ach'i now working here, so I guess this is a place they are investing their best resources at.

    The food is quite good here. Surprisingly good, not 100% authentic but close enough. And obviously…read moreyou don't have other choices for Chinese food in this area.
