Affordable lunch specials! Yummy food for the marina area and very friendly staff! Super fast too.

Lovely atmosphere, wonderful service and very mediocre food. There's too many good restaurants in the City to settle.

A hidden gem, food was really good and arrived fast, really filling and budget friendly.Because the place is kinda hidden in a building, it was a little empty but the service and atmosphere was really nice.We ordered a beef chow fun, a garlic chicken dish (?) and assorted appetizers.The beef chow fun was so good we could have called it the best affordable in town, the beef is tender and tasty and the flat noodles are nicely sauced; the garlic chicken dish was our least favorite because of the amount of vegetables which we weren't a fan of, the assorted appetizers was a good sharing plate with a little of every appetizer, each tasty in their own way. The waitress was patient and really nice.The street it's located in has a bunch of stuff to do and more things a few streets away as well. We had a really nice time at the restaurant and afterwards as well.recommended.

Classic Chinese lunch spot. The braised tofu and mushrooms with tender greens was delicious.

Shocked by the good reviews. The only thing that was averagely good was the bbq pork fried rice.Mongolian beef didn't even look like beef let alone Mongolian beef (pic attached). Hot and sour soup was weirdly sweet like dropped sweet and sour sauce in it. Pork dumplings tasted like chicken.Seems expensive for the quality of food.Maybe something fried that is hard to mess up like Orange chicken could be good... wouldn't go back.

Everything is AMAZING here! From the mu shu to the honey glazed walnut prawns. All the way to the customer service! It's hard not to eat here like every day for lunch! Man I love them!

The food was ok. Mine a bit spicy, my wife's a bit too salty. Portions were big, for the price very ok. Credit cards did not work with their machine, had to go out to get cash with the very same card. The ambiente has a bit of a worn down touch. Overall ok, but not great.
