    Bad service attitude, collect tips on your own initiative. The meals take a long time.

Intoxicating, mouth watering aromas from the kitchen, I am impatient and cannot wait for the dishes to arrive at my table. This is my fifth time coming here alone and with friends. I've never had an issue with the wait or the service. Everything is tip notch and I just absolutely love this restaurant. Today I ordered, the green beans and it's simply the best I've ever had. Just the right amount of salt and garlic, and what a crunch. The hot and sour soup, authentic and better than Chinatown. It's salty, spicy, vinegary, bamboo shoots was crushy too. The roasted duck was spectacular, crunchy skin and flavorful meat. Perfect seasoning. The orange chicken is a must. Crunchy and so so tasty. Every chicken pieces were crunchy and no bad pieces in this batch. This is not your panda Express orange chicken or Panda Inn, this is your Mr Chows Beverly hills orange chicken. The quality is un-matched. I don't know what these noodles are but they are crunch and delicious. I am so satisfied, and I also love the prices too, very good for this quality. I'm getting such a great deal.

Chicken dumplings had a good filling to wrapper ratio, but the filling needed way more seasoning. It just tasted like wet, mushy stuff inside, and drowning the dumpling in chili oil barely helped. And the two fried dishes weren't flavorful either--they weren't dredged very well, so they just tasted like oil. This was especially disappointing for the scallion pancake, since it looked nice...but didn't taste of scallions at all. Overall, really disappointing. I might give it a try at a different location if the opportunity comes up, but with the menu being rather small, I'm not even sure it'd be worth the time.

    A casual and inoffensive eatery offering Chinese cuisine. Most times I've visited, there has been…read morelittle to no wait, and I've been seated almost immediately. Many of the dishes are meant to be shared, making it a good spot to order a few plates for the table. The cucumber salad is a solid starter. It is something refreshing to snack on while you wait for the rest of your food. I ordered the Cheese and Chicken Rolls along with the Golden Prime Beef Soup. The rolls were rather greasy and indulgent, and I would probably skip them next time. If you must try them, I'd recommend limiting yourself to one or two pieces. The Golden Prime Beef Soup, on the other hand, packs a serious kick. If you can't handle much spice, definitely let the staff know. Those bright red chilies aren't just for show; their heat permeates the entire broth. My conclusion is about the same as my introduction: the fare is inoffensive, but it's consistent and good. It's a dependable option when you're looking for a casual Chinese meal without much fuss.

The menu is relatively simple which I think helps with the wait times, and it also makes ordering nice and easy.

I shared 3 dishes between me and boyfriend and thought it was a perfect amount of food to fill us up Spicy XLB: 4/5 I liked this but I think the seven grams XLB is better Beef roll: 5/5 I love how crispy the scallion pancake on this is Wonton w/ chili sauce: 4/5 this is always one of my fav dishes

I got the rice noodles with chicken, egg, cabbage and carrots (I opted out of the mushrooms) and my sister got the Mongolian beef rice plate. Both were so good!

In terms of the food, here's what I tried: Taiwanese-Style Beef Noodle Soup - It was good, nothing special, but the meat was tender. The soup was average--not overly flavorful, but nothing terrible either. It's not bad. (3.5/5) Shrimp Lo Mein - A very basic dish, and the flavors were just okay. It's simple, with a reasonable amount of shrimp. Nothing too crazy, but it fills the belly. Overall, it's not bad, especially since there aren't that many Asian food options in Ontario Mills. Come with low expectations and you'll probably enjoy it. The price was okay, about $16 per dish after tax, which I guess is about average for mall food.

The kitchen cuts off around 8:30 (sometimes earlier), so when they say 9 pm close, they mean they're walking out the door at 9. Get there by 8 pm at the latest if you want to order, or politely expect a "have a nice day." We walked in at 8:23 on a Tuesday and the kitchen was already mostly shut down. Luckily I got a regular-customer/birthday dinner exemption. They made it clear this was a one-time special and we could only get dumplings... which worked out perfectly because dumplings were all I wanted. The monster was briefly terrified at the thought of being denied, but the second they said yes -- OH MY G!!! We ordered three rounds of the classic soup dumplings, one order of the black truffle dumplings, and one order of the chocolate dumplings for dessert. This was our first time trying the black truffle dumplings and I felt like I was at a blackjack table. I kept saying "hit me again, hit me again, hit me again" until they were gone. Definitely worth the little extra. Then came the OGs. After demolishing a small country's worth of black truffle dumplings, I moved on to the classics -- perfect like always. Those poor little guys didn't stand a chance against me and my crew of dumpling assassins. Russia, eat your heart out. Last but not least, the chocolate dumplings. I didn't have much room left, so I had to take a strategic approach... more like a sniper. One careful bite at a time. The monster ate, ate some more, and then ate even more. So satisfied there's only one thing left to do: go home, lay down, and not move for several hours. Classic dumplings: 10/10 Black truffle dumplings: 10/10 Chocolate dumplings: 10/10 Dumpling monster -- sleepy and full.

The prices were comparable to other similar places but this place also offers all you can eat (except holidays) but we did not do this as we did not have the appetite. Plenty of parking and close to Ontario Mills. Staff were very friendly. Restaurant could use a facelift in some areas like the restroom but overall relatively clean. We ordered 2lbs medium spice house seasoned whole shrimp with corn and an egg, cucumber salad, and Cajun fries. The cucumber salad has a soy/vinegar sauce. We ordered it mainly to cut the butter/salt from the other stuff, it was decent, there was a little bitterness from the cucumber. The shrimps were nice and plump, only 1-2 were overdone at the bottom of the bag. The flavor was tasty, though I would have liked chunks of garlic in the bag to enhance more flavor. The basil was different than most places we've frequented, a welcomed surprise. Although we ordered medium spice, I think it was more on the mild side. The Cajun fries had a nice bite to them, but were simply fries with seasoned salt/Cajun seasoning on top...I've had better but they went well with the shrimps. Corn was sweet and egg was fine.

Sam did a great job taking care of us throughout our entire meal. He regularly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, including refills, extra lemons, and pepper. The service was excellent from start to finish! My wife and I ordered 2lbs. of shrimp at $17/lb, with add-ons including corn at $1.95 each, potatoes at $2.95, and 1/2 sausage for $8.95. We also had a soda for $4.50 with free refills. Our total came out to $59.05, including tax. We chose the house mix with the spicy flavor, and it was delicious! The shrimp was flavorful, and we were completely satisfied with the both the food and the service. We're definitely adding this place to our list of go-to spots and will be back again!

I'm a little selfish in saying this, but I'm thankful that it's not as busy because Service is probably faster because of it I could see how this might get not so good reviews because the service. But if you understand Cantonese culture, you'll understand. That's just the normal rude which they're not rude. It's just the culture. The environment is not the cleanest and is also probably why it doesn't give the best stars. But if you get past all of that, best comfort Cantonese food in town without going to Monterey Park or Chinatown. Also, the best Chinese tamales if you grew up eating them at home

Was brought two sticky menus.. gross. Then server came and brought hot tea in a small tea pot that seemed to have never been cleaned. While she did this she was on speaker on a phone call? What the?? Food came out... greasy, flavorless and a waste of money. Server never came back until we went to counter where she printed our bill. Receipt prices did not match menu prices and she said "that's old menu price went up" okay then say that when you hand them to us OR update your menus? So when I complained she corrected and tossed the receipt at me... RUDE service. Never going back, and telling anyone I know to not waste your money here.
