We ordered a HUGE amount of food for my wife’s birthday and this restaurant did NOT disappoint. A friend recommended them and we are so glad they did.Big portions and very tasty.

Excellent food and a fair price. Help keep this local business going strong!

It's a good place to sit down for a bite to eat is you want some good Chinese food

First time trying this place and was highly disappointed. We ordered chicken fried rice and it smelled fishy and did not taste good at all. And it also tasted really weird. Not like normal chicken fried rice. We also ordered almond soo guy. The gravy was tasteless and very watery. And the chicken was over cooked and also tasted weird. The only good thing about this place was the prices. We will not eat here again!

Their food used to be so good. Ever since the old owners left a couple of years ago it has been declining, faster and faster as we go on! The portions have gradually been getting smaller, there is now almost no flavour to the food and the quality is that of a dumpster garbage bag. We have been going here for over 15 years through name changes and owner changes and it has always been decent. It’s now gone totally down the tubes. One can only hope they’ll do the community a favour and sell it to someone who can make decent food that is of some sort of quality. So disappointed, after over 15 years we will never be returning.

I wanted to try this place again because there are no good Chinese places in Sarnia proper, and the place in Corunna is vastly overpriced. So, I drove out to get food from here. First, the good: The service is polite and professional. The prices aren't nearly as astronomical as they once were. $20 for an entree and a fried rice, including tax, is eminently reasonable. The food was prepared as I asked for it (slightly spicy and with extra onions). Now, the bad: The food is premade. I ordered, and I had only played one hand of bridge on my phone before mine was ready. That's less than five minutes. There is no way they made fresh fried rice and beef lo mein fresh in five minutes. I get that restaurants prep certain items, but this was unusual. Still, I chalked it up and headed home. To be fair, the lo mein was above-average. My only complaint was that it was a little too greasy. The fried rice, however, was a huge disappointment. It seemed as if it had been made hours before and simply thrown into a wok with some oil to heat it up. I get that Asian rice dishes don't usually include separate grains, but this portion clumped like golf balls. It was very, very greasy, and I could only stand a couple of mouthfuls. So, in short, with a maximum of five stars, I rate the service four, the beef lo mein 3.5, and the fried rice a one. 8.5 divided by three categories rounds up to three stars overall.

The best Chinese food! We called in our order at 2.30, with a 4.45 pickup. they open at 3pm.When we picked up they were telling callers order would be ready at 7pm.Remember to pre-order!!!The best Chinese food. 10% discount for takeout paid in cash.

Used to be a 5 star but since Covid quality is way down so I have switched to another Chinese restaurant

First time ordering here, quite disappointed. Ordered fish in ginger, they fried the fish and it was really only batterbeef and snow peas. Still waiting to each a piece of beef, only snow peasChicken in black beans. There was some SMALL pieces of chicken.Mixed veg: onions and broccoliIn fact all the meat dishes had lots of onions and broccoli but very little or no meat.They got a 2 star because the flavour was not bad but when I order a meat dish i expect meat with some veg not veg and a sprinkling of meat.
