They need more staff. Those there do a good job but everything is pretty slow, no fault of current staff they are constantly busy. Food was good.

A succulent chinese meal. Review is for takeout order for two during a trip to Saint John. Five stars. Ordered combo 2 and 8. Delicious. Great prices. Good portions. Came with utensils and sauces. Thank you.

Love the Food very clean and Wonton soup is delicious

The pork with spicy salt is a must try for anyone who loves the spicy salt squid or shrimps. The spicy chicken is amazing.We normally do take out and are always very happy. Amazing customer service.One of my favourite place. A regular spot for us.

This restaurant is good for people who only want to fill up their stomach.

I’ve been eating food from here for 20 years! Since being introduced to the restaurant by friends who were students from Hong Kong and Beijing I’ve tried most everything from the buffet and menu and it’s hard to go wrong. Curry Chicken, Yeung (Yangzhou-style) Fried Rice, Fried Noodles with Chicken and Veggies, and combo 9 are a few favourites.

Were the first ones in for supper around 5pm. Ordered a dish of sliced pork, and a General Tao's chicken, with a won ton soup and spring rolls for starters.After 30 minutes of waiting after ordering, not even the appetizers had come out. We were assured our food was coming right out of the kitchen. After 45 minutes, we had still received nothing. Almost left with nothing, but right then, the server came out of the kitchen with our food to go.While we were waiting to be served, we could hear employees taking new orders over the phone for take out, and tell the customers that it would be ready within 20 minutes. There were roughly maybe 10 orders that were prepared and got out while we were there.The food was mediocre at best. General Tao's was soft and soggy, as if it was microwaved instead of fried, and the sauce was very spicy and unbalanced. Rice was basic rice with soy sauce. My partner's soup had no filling in the noodles, and the broccoli was not even blanched, it was put in the soup raw. Broth was from a generic mix packet. The sliced pork was also very spicy, and didn't have much of a flavor profile other than "hot". Best part of this meal was the spring roll, which were just ok.We also have been informed that their buffet is closed indefinitely, seeing as they are unable to get the product that usually goes in the buffet, because of supply chain problems.They need to review their priorities and organization, and we clearly will not be back.

Good for JUSTTTT Chinese food i was looking for a bit of seafood as in pics and when i search seafood…. VERY DISAPPOINTED. Also spring rolls are made of strong coconut oil vegetable oil would have been great. Of course noodle and stuff where great idk how you could mess that up. Slow service i had to strip napkins off the other placemats and empty water didnt ask for refill. Only one family was ordering and the service was crowded at the front desk talking.

The service is good. But the restaurant is cold- two doors that open directly into the seating area without any outer door. So cold air constantly comes in and you have to wear your coats on a cold day. The egg rolls tasted like the ones I buy and heat up. The food was not much better than a frozen one from the grocery store. Chicken balls that are hard to cut. Hot and ok- but not a great dining experience. It has been around a long time so thought we would try it but it was empty- and likely for a reason.

Best Chinese food for the price in the city
