Reviews
– Plastic found in the food
– One of the worst Chinese meals I’ve had in years
1. Shredded Pork in Garlic Sauce
: There was a sharp piece of plastic inside this dish. It was thick and hard, and someone could have been seriously hurt. This shows a serious lack of food safety and kitchen control.
The taste was completely wrong. This dish is supposed to be savory, garlicky, and slightly spicy, but it tasted like sweet and sour pork. Everyone at the table thought the wrong dish was served. The sauce was overly thick and gluey, and the pork had a bad smell.
2. Peking Duck
: This was not good Peking duck. The skin was very greasy and not properly prepared. Sadly, this was still the most edible dish we ordered.
3. Jumbo Shrimp with Cashew Nuts
: Way too salty to eat. The shrimp were not jumbo at all, and the dish was mostly vegetables.
4. Dry Beef Chow Fun
: The noodles were swollen and not properly stir-fried. There was a bad smell, and the dish had almost no flavor. It smelled like uncooked packaged noodles.
5. Orange Chicken
: Very sweet and very bland. No balance, no flavor.
I hate wasting food, but because of the safety issue and how bad everything tasted, we threw all of it away.
I called the restaurant about the plastic found in the food. Their only response was “sorry” and “we’ll be more careful.” There was no refund, no compensation, and no follow-up.
This level of response to a food safety issue is unacceptable. I do not recommend this restaurant.
We drive past this restaurant whenever we go to Annandale. We always thought this was like a fast food Chinese, but it is a hidden gem of authentic Chinese. This place is small, with a few tables only. It gets busy quickly, and parking is limited in front. There is a rear parking lot that I can’t get to because 2 SUVs blocked the entrance due to the way parking was marked. They need to eliminate one of the parking spots by the entrance to make space for cars to drive in.
The waiter was very friendly, she reminded us that we should drink the soup before eating any other dishes to make sure we can have the best dining experience.
This restaurant also provides 大閘蟹, but it’s pretty tiny and does not have much meat.
Food took some time to come out at as well and my friend had asked for more water but they never brought it. We had to flag someone down to get bowls of rice which do not come with the meals.
The pork Chops were delicious and pairs very well with rice. Loved the Yu Choy and the E-Mein as well. Spring rolls were okay in my opinion. Kind of wish the E-mein had a little more crab meat. I would come back for the food. At the end when my friend paid for the meal, the server hovered over her while she filled out the tip and signed the receipt.
The food has been without fail, delicious. Usually do chicken fried rice and chicken with mixed vegetables. Both very solid, but recently tried the Singapore Rice Noodles and it was exceptional. Fragrant, hint of spice, but not overdone.
Highly recommend if you are looking for a quality Chinese/Asian restaurant.
