The fortune cookies were stale and the Wonton soup tasted like water…I tried to call them 3 times to let them know…they sent me to voicemail each time….

We used to come here all the time and it was great. Our regular Chinese place in welland closed and I was dying for some good Chinese food. Decided to make the drive back to poco. I ordered the combo plate with the chicken balls with a wonton soup. The soup was good. I’m almost positive the chicken balls are the no name ones you get at the grocery store. The sauce was more jello than sauce. They put my egg roll on top of the rice so when I got it home, it was soggy and fell apart when I picked it up. The chicken fried rice was just brown rice with nothing in it at all. No chicken, no veggies no soy. So disappointing

December 21, 2023

Tip them 10$ and they don’t remember I need soy sauce after I litteraly begged for it on the phone. They corrected the hiccup, but then proceeded to bother me -the next day- by calling me on the phone while I’m working, demanding I come take my tip back. As many other reviews and restaurant owners point out about this place ,very rude. And the food’s (lack of)quality isn’t worth putting up with it. After all was fixed, said and done.

We were pleasantly surprised that most of the food we ordered was good, especially the chicken balls and sauce. The chicken rice was good but could use some vegetables added. The egg rolls and spring roll were ok. I was somewhat disappointed with the beef black bean with rice noodles. I’ve had this dish so many times in my life I’ve lost count so I know when it’s good and when it’s not. This one is definitely not a winner for me only because I don’t like their choice of noodles which I’m not even sure were rice noodles. Authentic wide rice noodles should be the choice rather than the skinny ones used here. Not sure why they thought these were a good choice unless they are trying to save money but then makes it unfavourable for the customer. I would rather pay a couple of dollars more for the right noodle than waste my money on a bad choice. Still, the beef, veggies and sauce were tasty.

I've ordered from here many times over 100 dollars spent and enjoyed, however complain and I quote "you don't eat here no more." All it was is I live on the east side of town so of course there's this stigma that I'm trying to rip them off not the chase. The two orders of lemon chicken an one of General Tao where dry'n'crispy and very little sauce everything else was good called to rectify it and they tried to take the food back, thus breaking rules that existed before Covid. When told to call the cops because I refused to give the foul food sitting in my green bin they very threateningly said "We don't need them my husband is on the way." The best part the food they sent looked worst than what I had originally complained about quite literally floating in water. Clearly done in spite just look at pics and keep in mind its not sauce.

Our go to Asian food restaurant. Great food, the Special fried rice is a super star as is Tai dop voi. They use gravy that is gluten free so bonus for those who have an issue with gluten. Prices are reasonable.

Decent food. Ready fast. Reasonable prices.

December 22, 2023

They lost my order and then tried saying i didn t order ; after another employee already pulled up my order and verified. Said it would be prepared next as they were very busy waited a hour and finally left without my order. Staff was fairly rude about the whole situation , food is decent but it s run poorly and without taste

December 22, 2023

I used to go to this place once a week for years but not anymore. My last order, I placed an order for two combo plates. I got home and they completely messed the order up. When I called them to rectify it the owner was arguing with me about how that s what I ordered until a few minutes later where she said that she was wrong and to come back and get the right one but to bring back the old one. After driving 15 minutes back to the restaurant all they said was sorry ,nothing else, and handed me the right order. Then they took the wrong order I brought back into the kitchen. I don t know what happened to the food or to this restaurant as it used to be amazing but not anymore.

When called told delivery would be at 3:15, then that came and went was told 20 more min. That came and went and was told on the way it was another 20min. Then was told $2.00 delivery and it was $8.00 . A $10.00 meal cost ne$20.00. The rice was hard. Absolutely disappointing and sorry to say wont get it again!

Great wonton soup, love thier Shanghai Noodles (Curry Vermicelli on the menu). Pricing is ok, but right now everyone is increasing. Super friendly service. They have a generator, and were open during the last power outage. Will definiately be back. I believe they also have delivery.

December 22, 2022

Avoid the beef, as tough & chewy as leather!. Ordered various dishes including szechuan beef and beef chop suey. Both beef servings were as tough as cowhide. Such a disappointment with company over. Ended up throwing both beef dishes away

Wonderful food, friendly staff. My go to place for the last 12 years.

December 22, 2022

I don t understand how this place is a 4.2 star?? We ordered $100 worth of food which was our mistake I admit. We should have tried just a little bit to see if we liked the place. Opening up the boxes and containers on the table and just by sight alone I was disappointed . It all looked very pale, undercooked and boring. After taking a few bites of food I knew we had made a mistake. It is very bland. No seasonings, nothing in the fried rice other than the meat. And to be honest can t really say it was fried, more like some soy sauce on white rice and some meat bits on top. The chicken wings were undercooked, the fried wontons were barely fried, they were still soft and the pan fried noodles were nothing more than boiled noodles in a box. All in all I would say it wasnt edible. I can t say it was good or great or even just ok. None of us went back for seconds, in-fact all of us left food on our plates, which never happens with Chinese in this house. Now I have a lot of leftovers that no one wants. There are many great Chinese food restaurants in the Niagara Region, this in my opinion isn t one of them. The staff were very friendly and it was clean inside but sadly their food was not a 4.2 star. The 1 star I gave it was for the staff and cleanliness inside. I cannot give the food any stars.

kung po beef was terrible. tasted like rotten compost from what I believe to be the old veggies used in the dish. the mini corns looked grey and old. its listed as spicy, but was bland. ruined the meal since the sauce would touch other dishes on the plate.

Service is jot great, the egg drop soup is very good. But they dont tell you when they dont have ingredients for items you order. Example I ordered sesame seed chicken, and they brought it out and put it on table with out a word. But no sesame seeds, when I asked she said we ran out. No Apologies or anything.. never have drive is we want either for the kids. They have been out of milk ,ice tea, and root beer.

You guys, I just moved to Port. Order some zas for the moving crew and everyone left but my bf. We chilled for a bit and then too lazy to do groceries and cook anything so he offered to order something via delivery for dinner. This place delivered so they fit the bill. Ordered. Food came quick. Delivery guy was so nice. A good sign as a newcomer. Food was fresh. Best Chinese Ive had in a long time. And Ive lived in lots of cities. No comparison. My bf and his family will be visiting this weekend and theyve offered to get take out for dinner and Im like oooohhh yeah... Im thinking Tie Pink for dinner!!!

Very bad experience we had there. We chose this place nov 5 for my birthday party because we heard good things about this place. Where do i start.. they had run out of a huge selection of drinks. the server was horrible. She didnt seem happy at all.. she rolled her eyes at us on more then one occasion that my 11 year old daughter caught on to as well as myself. I own a restaurant my self for the past fifteen years in fonthill. I will never be back.. i as a owner myself would never stand for a waitress that treets customers like that. but i will say the food was good.

My husband and I ordered delivery and were displeased, The chicken balls were to over cooked to being d-r-y-y-y /crunchy,and there wasnt any sweet and sour sauce with it, the chow mien was either way over cooked or heated up leftover chow mien from earlier in the day, it was horribly soggy and mushy !!! ...what was good was the wonton soup and the delivery time of only like 20 minuts, maybe there was a reason it didnt take long. I never comment but this time I felt the need to . Sorry !
