    The food we had was beautiful (oysters Kilpatrick, duck and salmon). The bowl of fries were overdone too crispy and not hot. It was a busy night and staff were run off their feet, but very friendly. The noise was so loud my husband and I couldn’t hear each other to chat. But, we would dine there again- maybe on a dumpling night.

    We had a wonderful Chinese New Year dinner. All the food was delicious and plentiful. We have been to this restaurant a number of times and have enjoyed the food every time. Highly recommend booking a table so you don’t miss out.
