I enjoyed my extra spicy General Tao’s chicken and egg roll combo, food was very fresh and the sauce and spicy were very flavorful and authentic . Service was fast, food was hot, excellent choice and affordable. I will return when in Montreal.
This place is GOOOOD! I had the spicy pork stew and it was Very Spicy!! A very large serving too. Super-delicious! They also have lots of non-spicy foods for kids and anyone else. A great place to go with anyone because there are tame options for people who don't want anything strange, and lots of unusual options for people who want to try foods you would not find in common Chinese restaurants. Lots of interesting fish options especially. Also great service, great vibe, and great sweet tea options.
A really nice restaurant. This place has really good air ventilating, so even if it offer some spicy and oily dishes, you don’t smell it. For a small restaurant, it has a lot of seats. It also has a nice atmosphere with its light coloured wood structure. The food is delish and affordable. A fried rice and two drinks was less than 20 dollars pre taxes!
I visited this restaurant on a Monday evening because it was one of the few Chinese places without a long wait. I am Chinese myself, though Cantonese, and perhaps that is why the flavors here did not fully match what I was craving. This restaurant serves more Taiwanese style dishes, so the taste is different from the Cantonese food I usually enjoy. We had already eaten pho earlier in the trip and wanted something different, so we decided to give this place a try after reading some reviews. I ordered the General Tao chicken special for $12.99, which came with two spring rolls, a bowl of rice,…

Got grilled fish dish with rice while my family got noodle soup with fish and beef. I personally didn’t find my dish too great, but my family loved theirs. So mixed reviews.
Being a Chinese myself and having been to hundreds of authentic Szechuan Chinese restaurants, this one is not great. I ordered the Szechuan Peppercorn soup base with Snakeheaded fish and beef, lack of flavor and way too sour. Ordered shredded pork fried rice, they offered and put in a hot dog wiener as my “pork”?! You have pork slices for your soup, why don’t you use that instead of a hot dog wiener? Very strange. Their fruit tea lack in topping choices, there were no fruit pops? Service is blah, the young lady pretty much ignored you the entire time. All in all, it was OK, but not great.
Craving for spicy food and this place certainly helped! We came here twice in this trip, no need to wait , quick service. The food and menu is adapted to European western style but the level of spiciness in the spice dishes is still intense. Decent price, definately recommend for those want quick fix for a taste of chinese spicy food.
The “original” (highest spice) soup base is authentic and delicious. We have some doubts about other items on the menu, since the one less authentic addition (the sliced beef) doesn’t quite fit with the flavor profile— but we would definitely recommend the noodle soup with the original broth + fish for an easy and satisfying meal. For reference, the bowl pictured easily serves two
