The crispy roasted pork rice is delicious, but it’s a pity that the fat old woman at the cashier has such a bad attitude. She seemed to have eaten something unclean when she spoke Chinese. Then she didn’t give her chopsticks when she bought a set meal with soup. No, you are really lucky to have such a boss/employee

Take out soya chicken was rancid on the next day. Bbq pork wasn't the piece the owner showed us instead they substituted with odds and end miscellaneous pieces which we discovered when we got home. Expensive and dishonest. Rumour was that the owner was going to retire and close the restaurant but I guess he figured he can still scam more people.

Very old and long established chinese BBQ restaurant. They sell one of the BEST cha siu (roast pork) in Canada. Their chinese roast pork, duck, are one of the best in town. Many people buy take out. For dinner, their dishes are of good value and quality. Highly recommended

I went to eat last night, this restaurant obviously discriminates against mainlanders! The next table spoke Cantonese and served the soup before we got the menu. We waited for a long time and no one gave the menu. We waited for the first dish and rice, but no one served the soup when we were almost finished. Finally, I asked the waiter, the waiter It was only served. There was no plate during the meal, the second dish was served very slowly, and the quality was also very poor. A beef vermicelli pot was full of vermicelli. In the end, because the service was poor and I didn't want to tip, I left less than a knife. In the end, the funniest thing came. A woman in her 40s or 50s chased me out and yelled at me in Cantonese. I told her in Mandarin, and she said you haven’t tipped me yet! I'm really shocked, your service is so poor and you still have the face to ask for a tip? If we were foreigners or older Cantonese speakers, would you still dare to chase us out?

Ten of us came out here for dinner Sunday night and ordered from the set menu ($300 for 8 ppl), plus a couple of add-on items. Food came out quickly, tasted good - lobster was amazingly soft and delicious!

Why is the attitude of the aunt at the front desk very bad immediately when speaking Mandarin? If you don't want to sell to mainlanders, just say so, there's no need to ignore it!

It’s nearly $16 after tax, and I can buy three copies of the same thing. Expensive and unpalatable!

Because I saw the recommendation of eating snake soup, I didn’t expect it to be in the plaza of the milk tea shop I often go to~
Although I tried to identify it for a long time, I still couldn't find which one is a snake, but I have tasted it~
Although the waiter didn't speak Mandarin when ordering, he tried his best to explain it to us, and also reminded us that we might have ordered too much.
The soft shell crab was very pleasantly surprised. I didn't expect it to be so crispy, so fragrant and soft. When I swallowed it, I didn't feel my throat at all.
The bean sprouts and prince mushrooms are also very tender, and the oysters are fat and tender that I have never eaten before, which is very shocking.
The fried shark fin with osmanthus was actually deceived by the name, and I was wondering whether it was salty or sweet. It turned out that it was fried with eggs, probably because it looked like osmanthus. The boss even came to say hello to us, and introduced that this is 100% natural, unsalted shark’s fin~ but the taste of northerners will feel that the taste is relatively bland [Of course, shark’s fin has no taste at all. ]
The amount of dishes is relatively large, and I did not finish eating orz in the end
The main reason is that the shark's fin is expensive, but everything else is fine~

The food just ok, you can find it anywhere, price not particularly cheap.but the service is bad especially the owner. I heard her yell over the phone. Not even worth 1 star.

Definitely go for dine-in if you have the ability. The quality just isn’t the same for takeout. This place has been a go to for years and has some of the best Chinese bbq in Richmond hill.
