I recently visited Asian and had a fantastic experience! I ordered the beef and mixed green combo along with their Bon Bons, and I have to say, the Bon Bons were absolutely delicious – crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The beef and mixed greens were fresh and well-seasoned, making for a satisfying and balanced meal. On top of the great food, the customer service was excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure that everything was to my liking throughout the meal. The atmosphere in the restaurant was comfortable and welcoming, which made the dining experience even better. If you’re looking for a place with authentic asian food and outstanding service, I highly recommend Asian. I’ll definitely be back for more of those amazing Bon Bons!
Have not had a bad meal to this day. Large portions. Fast and friendly delivery. Always the best.
Ordered a noodle bowl. It wasn't very good. Ordered coffee, the waitress only refilled it once. Left my cup out empty and she would walk by it. I had to remind her to refill it for me. The owner also wasn't very friendly. I asked about french fries for my child and he said no we don't have any. Even though there is french fries on the menu. He seemed to be offended that we wanted french fries. After some time spending there eating the sub par nooble bowl, I realized the cooks are all east indian. So they are hired to save money/subsidized wages. No wonder this food doesn't taste as good as the rest of the places around town.
One of the best, if not the leading, oriental-style restaurant in town. It's basically Vietnamese-Chinese cuisine with a variety also of international cuisine. We held a huge birthday celebration for the family's grand matriarch here just before Christmas last year and everyone of us loved the food and service they extended. Excellent-tasting food, large portions, good service and all at a very reasonable price. Will always highly recommend!
The lemon chicken and the fried rice here is amazing! Definitely a comfort food for me. The Vietnamese spring rolls were also amazing and perfectly crispy! Would definitely go back for these dishes!
Was on my way home from skiing on a Sunday evening. Wanted Thai food but the place I was recommended/would typically go (Thai Kitchen) isn’t open on Sunday’s. Unfortunately, this place was. Order pad thai over the phone for pickup. At $22.50, it’s more expensive than Thai Kitchen by quite a bit but my options are limited and I’m hungry. Pick it up, get home and open the box to find what is essentially a regular stir fry with about a pound of bell peppers and onion on top, and some cashews, plus the tofu and noodles. Call the restaurant to let them know my orders’ wrong, and they inform me that it’s ‘their take on a pad thai’. …what?? No bean sprouts, no peanuts, no scrambled egg, and their ‘pad thai sauce’ just tastes like somehow worse VH sauce from the store. The noodles are congealed at the bottom, with half of them not having any sauce at all. What it boils down to is that it’s not pad thai, it has none of the components that would make it pad thai. At best, it’s a poorly done regular stir fry. The rep, who was rude the whole time, tells me that it is pad thai and that just because I don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s not pad thai. He said they’ve changed all these components for ‘allergy purposes’. I tell him none of this is on their website, nor in the menu, and they can’t just change every part of a dish and call it the same thing. I ask for a refund, and tell them that this isn’t what I ordered. I’ll waste my time/money, bring it back, and go somewhere else, or they can make an actual pad thai. He refuses telling me they don’t do refunds, and that not liking it isn’t a valid reason anyway. I tell him that beyond not liking it; it’s not what I ordered. We do a little more back and forth before he says something like. I’m not going to change my mind, and you won’t be getting a refund or another meal, so there’s no point to continuing this conversation. At this point the conversation ends. I don’t typically leave reviews, but the terrible customer service from this place convinced me otherwise. Especially when there are so many quality alternatives. Honestly, Thai Express does a better pad thai at half the cost. Thai Kitchen does an amazing pad thai at slightly more than half the cost. With the multitude of other options, I really can’t understand why anyone would go here. To the owners, good luck.
A great little gem of a place to eat. Clean and neat. Very nice staff. Food was served hot and on time. Reasonable prices for most dishes. Worth a try if your looking for a place to dine. The pad thai has there own twist and it works well. I will return again for more great food. Update! Got the dinner for 6 and wow was so good! All food was pipping hot and fresh came to about $120 clams but we had left overs for 2 days that depends on you family size.... we have 5. Well worth it and will order again!
July 2024, my spring rolls have been disappointing the last 2 times I've ordered them. They are over cooked and very greasy. The shell is cooked for so that long parts of it are almost burnt and not edible it's so hard...... What happened?????? I have to drop from 5 stars to 3....... and try someplace else next time The best spring rolls ever!!!!!! Vegan selections - which are sometimes hard to find, extremely attentive waitress without being intrusive and reasonable prices. I recommend this restaurant to everyone.
Relaxing dinner With superb service and delicious food Highly recommend Food : 5/5
Awesome dishes unique flavors, I highly recommend this eating establishment.
Always excellent..
Nice portion size Very good Chinese food Fair price Parking: Good parking Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access
My husband and I were greeted with a welcoming smile before we even fully stepped inside the dining room, the food was fresh and the servings were hot and huge, huge servings of freshly prepared fresh food. The best food I ve eaten in a long time, the next time I m in Thunder Bay I ll definitely come back!!
Great food, great service we ordered the spare ribs and the lemon chicken could have easily been split into 4+ meals
Very impressed with the quality of food and level of service.
I ordered the pad thai. It did not taste like pad Thai but it was a very good dish. The portion is huge. Keep in mind when you order from this restaurant you are ordering family style. Youre not getting individual portions. I also ordered mine low spice but it was quite spicy so might want to be careful about that. My partner ordered stir fried vegetables with shrimp and it was very very good.
Great service, friendly ppl Dietary restrictions: Can make food for any diet Parking: Easy to see Kid-friendliness: Everyone is welcome Wheelchair accessibility: By the front door
The Food is Absolutely Delicious. Anything Ive tried has been 10 out of 10! The Bon Bons are Especially Tasty!
Excellent food and service!
We ate at the Asian fusion tonight and we had 6 egg rolls, which were excellent, and we had 2 special soups which were also excellent, but the Chinese food rice not too impressed with. Its probably cross contaminated and it was very bland it tasted kinda weird and I certainly wouldnt order Chinese food rice from there again or a Vietnamese. Whatever they are. Yeah, not again, sorry.
They seem to put thought and care into everything on the menu. A notch above .
Order from here regularly and it is always top quality.
Was craving Pad Thai and not having ordered here before I was shocked with their prices and food. 2 orders of Pad Thai $70 ! Got the food home and it was not what I ordered. No peanuts, lime, green onions, cilantro or fish sauce. They werent even rice noodles! It had a bit of shrimp and chicken and mountains of greasy red and green peppers. When I called to complain they said that it is their take on Pad Thai ... seriously? There is not one single ingredient other than chicken that is in this dish that is in traditional Pad Thai. At least tell your customers when they order this dish that it is not traditional. Not everyone has eaten here and knows their menu. Plus extremely rude when I questioned them! Will never order there again!
Was a fun time with friends. Had a GREAT server- Monica Food always great. Food : 5/5
Amazing food. Great service. Best Asian food in the city. I recommend highly. Try the pho.
Great Asian food...try the orange chicken...I mean really! Try the chicken. Great staff, very attentive and helpful. Only place we have been since everything opened back up where a party of 4 can eat for $100.00 Vegetarian options: They definitely had vegetarian dishes, try the vegitarspring rolls, youll love then. Wheelchair accessibility: We had a family member who was in a wheelchair and they very accommodating.
Was Really good.... their food is hard to beat in Tbay.
Parking: Easy access, very good food, highly recommended Food
Very delicious and the staff are amazing! The Tom Yum soup is to die for and the Pad Thai is great.
Quite expensive. Ordered a medium Pad Thai, it was borderline unedible due to spice level, and I eat spicy food quite a bit. Would order mild in the future and spice to taste at home.
great foods!
Authentic Vietnam food, delicious and very good service
Zero rating . I called to order fried rice and asked to put extra scrambled egg and the told me straight no . I dont mind if they charge me extra . Me and my boyfriend always ordered from here and asked for it they always use to do . I person i spoke to was not even saying okay let me see or ask or even put efforts to fulfill my request . He is like straight no . Thats not how you attend a customer . I also worked in customer service fir 7 to 8 years so rude . I will never order here also Pho Umami is soo much better than them . Huh .
Excellent food, great service.
Great take out meal
Chicken fried rice & bbq pork fried rice were affordable & delicious A+
Would not recommend this restaurant. A lot of deep frying (overdone,). The stir fry was fresh and tasty. Bon bon is tough pork ribs deep fried too long.
Great, tasty food and service.
Great food and amazing portions for great prize. I ordered the pad Thai and it was delicious. But now I know for next time that the portions are more of a family/sharing portions.
Good pad thai
Orderd a few items awhile back when they opened on a Sunday . One of the items was shrimp. Well this must of been from the day before. Looked like it was put back in fryer, full of grease, just awful. I texted the restaurant and told them and they didnt care. They lost my business. If I didnt live in the country I would have brought it back but didnt feel like going back into town.
Clean relaxed atmosphere. Very friendly quick and attentive service. The food was amazing and the portions were very large. Will definitely be back.
Fast and Friendly service! Food was very good
Reasonable prices, awesome staff and not too busy unless it s dinner time.
I really liked this restaurant about 8 years ago but the past few years it has been lacking something. Vietnamese spring rolls are fantastic as well as the wings and chicken balls. General tao chicken tasted like the sauce was watered down and needed some spice or something was missing. The pineapple rice doesnt appear to have seasoning so it works better to mix with other food that has sauce or flavour. Id go back just to order the spring rolls any day -filling and tasty.
Had the beef chowmein and it was quite tasty. Good value for the money, definitely would try again.
My go to for Chinese food , last order was fantastic, the bon bons and lemon chicken were awesome and delivered ahead of schedule as usual
Very friendly staff; answered questions and explained options. Food came out very promptly and was quite tasty. Heartily recommend.
Very good service and good food
I got an order of BBQ Pork Lo Mein and S&S Shrimp. The shrimp was great and is probably cheapest in town for how much you get! The lo mein was not my favourite, the noodles were a bit overcooked (may be due to the drive home) and were bland.
Parking: Freshly paved with well marked parking slots Wheelchair accessibility: Level entry
Food was great.
Great food. Big portions
Was great food and excellent service Will go back there again
Fairly large portions and good tasting food. Lots of classic dishes and noodle bowls. Very similar taste to Mr. Chinese. Nice seating area. Overall good option.
The best oriental cuisine in town hands down! Great portions and prices!
Always consistently good. Also have very competitive pricing. It is unfortunate they are closed on Tuesdays as we seem to have big family meals on Tuesdays and always have to order from their competition.
Was quite unhappy with my consume soup being water with green onions in it.
Great food
Gross ! Poisen. Dont eat
We had spring roll, schezwan veg noodles and Chinese shrimp fried rice. We enjoyed our lunch although I felt the spring roll was overpriced.
Over priced and mediocre Chinese food. They sell dumplings as wontons. The fried rice is lacking in ingredients and taste. You would know what Im talking about if you know Chinese food. You are paying a lot of money for small portions food.
Really good food and portions, and their spicy options are actually spicy. They are also well equip for sanitary order pickup.
Excellent food! Great service and a reasonable wait time :)
The spring rolls are so good here. The pad Thai is different than I expected, but I feel like those are the ones I ve liked the most. Definitely coming back for the rolls.
Poor customer service. Food was ok.
Used to be my favorite Chinese place and after a recent review of the food on Eat, Thunder Bay group on Fb saying their food had multiple hairs in it, I still gave them another chance. Well, guess what, my food had hair in it as well. Are the cooks not wearing hairnets? Food is good but I hope they up their kitchen standards.
Stingy with the rice. An order of fried rice is a medium Styrofoam souo container. Stirfry comes with an order of white rice...2 stir fry orders got 1 small container of rice. Did price of rice go up? Food tasted good.
Always great food and great service.
Chicken Chow Men, Wonton BBQ Pork Soup, Asian Tom Yum Soup ( spicy and very aromatic with hints of lemongrass), Vietnamese Spring Rolls and Egg Rolls as take out items. Ordered while in their lot, prepared and picked up within 15 minutes, while watching 12 other vehicles arrive and leave with huge bags. The food was delicious, great value and its obvious the staff work well together to move those orders out so effectively as barely anyone waited more than a moment or two. Photos will be posted after the next visit and I dont eat half of it before remembering to take them.
Very good!
Very disappointing that they no longer have dine in due to covid, even though we are well out of lock down. Will not be returning until they have done in. .
Food is consistently great and generous portions!
They got my order wrong and wouldn t even go good for it. Just an order of noodles I asked for plain nothing in it no vegetables. Came with vegetables and stinky shrimp which were allergic to. Wouldn t replace the noodles. Never order here again. Terrible customer service. Have fun with my 50 bucks
excellent Springrolls and Shanghai Noodles
Food is good. Service is awesome. Price is a little higher than the average Chinese/Vietnamese restaurant in Thunder Bay though.
Quaint atmosphere good food.
Good, tasty Food. Small portions though.
Awesome pho. Probably the most authentic asian food you can find in thunder bay. Kind of a funny name but good food. Friendly staff too.
Always good food and friendly service. The noodle bowls are awesome.
Always the best food!!
Fresh food fast service, tasty chowmein.. If you are looking for a Chinese food fix... Look no further...
Ordered spring rolls and Vegetables stir fried and found hair in spring rolls. Not hygienic place at all.
Amazing as usual! Hot, Fresh & Tasty. We had yet another delicious take-out meal this week. Lots of variety for all palates - Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese. Clean & good atmosphere. Excellent service. Thank You!
First of all, 5 stars for the Good Food. Down side is the person handing out the food. We ordered with friends of ours and had two orders. When we came 20 minutes later, only one order was ready. he told us bluntly to wait outside. I think they stapled the orders together and only did the top one. We waited outside for 25 minutes while my friends order was in the car with us and we saw numerous orders leave. We finally got my order, as I say, 25 minutes later and he just handed it to me and walked away. No sorry for the wait or anything. This fellow needs to learn some manners and get a personality. Very unprofessional and though its pretty good food, well have to see if we ever go back. Some things you cant get past and this rudeness and lack of respect for their customers may be be one of them. He would have got 0 stars if it was an option!
Great food and service. Food is always fresh and the prices are average. Fast delivery across town without a ridiculous fee. Always my top pick for chinese/vietnamese food
Where are the lemons ?
Very easygoing place to eat.
I ordered take out and when I got home and opened my containers I found a band aid inside the container sitting on top of my meal! It was freakin gross. And they didn t even seem to care. Weren t apologetic at all. Won t be going back there.
Pretty good had a noodle bowl ordered just before close
Best chicken fingers and fries around.
Fantastic.
One of the best Chinese restaurants in town.
There lemon chicken is really good. I found my new place for chicken balls. I live on the north side of town. Its worth the travel to go there. The servers are nice. Really large meaty chicken balls are really good there. All the food is good there.
Lovely atmosphere and great food
Good food fast service recommend this place highly
Fresh food Good sevice
Nice place, great service and great food.
Food was very good. Very nice atmosphere, staff was attentive. A good experience you should eat here.
The best Chinese restaurant I have in thunder bay.
Excellent food and service. Easy parking. Our takeaways were just as good or better the next day.
I used to be a staff here. This restaurant has very high standard of food processing. One of the best choice in town when you need yummy Chinese or Vietnamese foods.
Loved it, great food and great service. Wait time was around 20mins. Probably thats because of rush hour.
Great Asian food!
Best Chinese food in town!
Always delicious!! Huge portions too
The food was good; the service needed work. The young man who took our order was chewing gum... noticeably. He never came back to ask if we wanted more water or wine. In fact, he never came back. It took awhile to get someone to do something with our leftovers and give us our bill. The food was hot and tasty and there was more than enough for the three of us. Overall, this place might be better as a take out joint as they dont seem too welcoming to those who.come and sit down.
Fast service, delicious food, great lunch specials.
Great service. Fantastic food. Highly recommend. Staff wonderful with children!
Wasnt my favorite food choice. Had the dinner for 1 and it was disappointing
Nice restaurant
Great noodle bowl, 6 dollar spring rolls for the win
Nice, clean.. plus good food. A little pricey than other Vietnamese-Chinese restaurants.
The best place in town for Singapore Noodles!
Good eats
The best Pho in town.

I LOVE their fried rice and wontons
Decent food, I ordered lo mein, nice servers and good music
Really enjoyed the experience. Always good good.
horrible waitress. Waited an hour for a meal I could have made at home.
It aint bad but definitely not the most flavorful of dishes.
Good food. But a bit expensive..
We were very happy with the food and the staff was awesome.

Never had anything bad here, food is amazing!
Very flavourful food. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Their noodle bowls are amazing.
Food prepared to perfection, great service and not expensive. If travel back to Thunder Bay just to eat there again.
Wonderful food and great atmosphere
Just ok. Kung Pao chicken ordered medium heat had zero spiciness, basically chicken and veggies in brown gravy. Another guest ordered mild pad Thai and that was spicier. Waitress was asked for some chili oil, never came. Portions are very generous but that didnt overcome the disappointment in flavour..
Best spring rolls & barbecue pork wonton soup
Awesome service and good. Had to catch a flight and the cab was getting late so the owner offered to drop us at the airport. Staff was extremely nice and considerate!
The customer service is always great and the food is always fresh. You can taste the distinct flavours of each dish.
Good food, service and atmosphere!!
A real find for a visitor to Thunder Bay. Hard to spot but worth the trip. Staff is very pleasant and service is quick. Portion sizes are generous and value is great. Food quality and taste are excellent. Parking is limited but not an issue if you dont mind crossing the street.
Great food and the prices are comparably low.
I love the pad thai from here
Awesome atmosphere and food!
Great place great food
