On Thursday March 7th i ordered Cantonese fried noodles through skip the dishes for my lunch. Soon after I became extremely ill, this went on for 2.5 to almost 3 days. When I was able too I made the call to the restaurant and spoke to a lady to advise them of my illness, she made no apologies and she advised me to contact skip the dishes. I feel like they didn't even care about he fact that I was sick. I then contacted skip the dishes and they completely ignored me. i can say that I will never be ordering from this restaurant again. In this case who takes the blame. The restaurant or skip? Either way I am very upset and do not recommend this restaurant.

We enjoyed a delicious tasty lunch. Friendly and efficient service. Cauliflower was crispy and well seasoned. Eggplant was fabulous. Spicy chicken was excellent and not too spicy.

Even though the food was fine… but the hospitality was terrible.They being Asian themselves still treat you as racist here … just a small snippet of this is attached below. Everyone was served in a proper steel kettle. However as only Indian in restaurants our kettle was a beaten and broken kettle with tapes on it.

Worse service ever. Deserves ZERO star. Gave us overcooked food with weird taste and when we asked to change it for another dish, the server (a skinny woman) questioned us with anger, blaming us for wasting the chef’s timeBecause the dish was mushy and we asked for a change, we were told clearly that we could have shredded pork or pork elbow, so a fatter waiter agreed to help us ask. As a result, the thinner waitress rushed over and asked us very harshly, "We have exchanged, so which one do you want to change? The shredded pork is almost off the pot." Then after waiting for a long time, the elbow was served and left on our table with a stinking face?Anyway, don’t go there, it tastes bad and you’ll get scolded, you spend money to pay for it and you’ll suffer.

I feel the food got worse since they changed the cook. I had a diner here with my few friends, but one of the dishes was overcooked and tasted burnt. I told the waitress about this and asked to change the dish, but she was being very impatient and giving us attitude.

We ordered take out for the dinner, with the spicy pot, garlic broccoli and stir fried cumin beef. However, the portion is really small. Much smaller than dine in. The spicy pot is only half-filled while during dine in it’s much fuller, and the broccoli just tastes bland and hard. Avoid at all

I only ever order in from this restaurant and I only ever get dimsum. This place genuinely never disappoints; their buns are soft and pillowy, the filling is delicious, the dumplings are flavourful and juicy. The wonton soup is a favourite of mine, the broth stays hot for hours and its flavourful yet light. Truly one of the best restaurants for dim sum in the region
