I ordered a lemon chicken combo with an eggroll ... and chicken balls... what I got was chicken with NO lemon sauce and spring rolls... and other dish was chicken with NO sweet and sour sauce.. soooo what I got was two chicken an rice dishes with no sauce for either... no plum sauce.. this is the driest most bland shit I've ever had I'm my life..

I ate there in 1989 or 90 I think it was. Long time. Do you still have a Maritta that works there? She was a friend of mine from a billion years ago. She worked there I think in 1990.

Delicious cheap eats. Get there early while they still have everything. Big fan of the pork buns.

This place is dirty and unorganized! The owner/cook dropped a take out container on the dirty floor and picked it up and used it and didn’t even wash her hands! Dirty pots and pans everywhere, the dept. of heath already paid them a visit a few years ago! 🤮 REPLY: I wasn’t there today it was in the past and I witnessed this with my own eyes. There’s also a report with the health dept. attesting to it, it’s all on record!

The food is reasonable price! Dumplings, chicken, noodles are only $10 including tax. And the host was so kind but the noodle need more seasoning..it's too bland But I like this place!

It's good to have a quick bite or get some cheaper but fine coffee there. The female boss is a good guy. She is very enthusiastic to share her outcomes with me when I visit there. I am happy to slide by there and talk with her. 😉

Love this little gem! Warm and friendly service and food that tastes homemade. I can vouch for the soup & biscuits being my favourite. Large portion of delicious soup and a fresh biscuit puts a popular coffee chain to shame. Also love the BBQ pork steam buns. Good prices for generous portions!

I definitely recommend checking them out for breakfast or lunch... Or just a coffee and a snack! They have affordable and tasty lunch deals (and decent portion size too). They have good coffee and baked goods in the morning which are the most affordable in Dartmouth. This is my new favourite spot in Downtown Dartmouth and recommend you check them out!

We ordered through uber eats, we waited 45 minutes or so for the food which isnt a problem. Except when it got here, half the order is missing and the woman on the phone hung up on me, twice. Super upset and probably wont order from here again. Giving this 1 star because its the lowest I could give. I get this is a tough time, but dont keep hanging up on customers because of your mistake.

It was so salty we couldnt eat it, we got the braised beef and Kung Pao chicken. The containers were neat and serving was decent. Unfortunately it went to waste.

Egg Roll had large hard pieces of cabbage in it....dumplings were overcooked...pork was too salty to eat...vegetables were mushy. The only thing I enjoyed was my Diet Coke.

You get what you pay for, I paid 8$ for a combo and got the saddest almost unseasoned white rice with peas and carrots Ive ever had, Uncle Bens microwave basmati has more flavor. Looked forward to the steamed buns only to find out theyre so cheap because you grossly under fill them. I guess I got my steamed bun, as 99% of it was nothing but bun. Pay the extra 2-4$ and get real chinese food basically anywhere else.
