“ Don't judge this book by its cover! The building is a little out of date and it may lead you to expect not very good food, but you wouldn't be more wrong. Honestly think it's the best Chinese food I've ever had. I haven't tried many dishes but the ones I have tried are very delicious and I don't even see a need to check out any other Chinese place in town. I usually get chicken balls, rice, and won tons and it's such a great price. The chicken balls are mostly chicken (unlike pretty much every other place I've eaten at), you get lots of rice, and the crispy won tons are delicious. It's even cheaper if you go for lunch! If you want great Chinese food in St. John's support local and come to this spot. ”
“ Food was to die for, best Cantonese spot I've gone to in years in Atlantic Canada. The staff were so kind too, great people to have a chat with. The service was wonderful as well. I definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for American Chinese food, or authentic Cantonese food. Literally, like I said early, it's TO DIE FOR lol! ”
“ I have been eating here for at least 15 years, and given a choice it's the only Canadian-Chinese food I'd purchase. The classics are all great, and the more 'authentic' (though I hate that word) offerings like Singapore Style Noodles are excellent as well. I've never had anything bad from here. Also, the Wonton soup is phenomenal. P.S. Get the special filled wontons. Deep-fried dumplings served with dipping sauce? Yes please. P.P.S. Assuming they bring it back once this Covid business is done, their lunch menu is insane value. EDIT: The lunch menu is back, and it is still EXCELLENT value, and they now also offer two types of HUGE noodle soup bowls that are also awesome for a great price. ”
“ always delicious, great portions for the size. best fried rice ever. ”
“ We’re from NYC and somewhat picky on Chinese food. After a few searches, decided to have lunch here, the waitress was super friendly, we ordered some traditional food out of the menus and it was so so good food. The area was clean and spacious, easy to park your car and near downtown. ”
“ This quiet little chinese food restaurant is a hidden gem. My favourite dish is the spicy fish/cod. I love the noodle dishes and soups a lot too. The north american chinese food is always delicious too. They're open for lunch now and I couldn't be happier. ”
