The food was good and all the dishes came out around the same time. Unlike a previous reviewer, I did not notice any over saltiness in the food. I’m giving the food rating a 4 star since the taste is more or less the same as their competitors in the area
The service is where they should improve.
when ordering, the waiter was constantly trying to upsell us. Despite telling her we wanted some simple, she acted like she was getting a sales commission.
unlike their nearby competitors, the dishes were served in smaller plates or larger plates that were only 70% full. It was very noticeable and puzzling since the ingredients in our dishes were not expensive.
they calculate tips on top of tax. The government is clamping down on this shortly and I hope they stop soon.
I asked if they had complementary dessert, they said yes. Minutes later, 1/2 a small bowl of red bean dessert was served and we were all supposed to share it
In summary, on the surface, this looks like a family style restaurant, you want to help to be successful. The food was on par but, the portion size could be larger. However, multiple hints of greed and cost cutting erases any nostalgic feeling one might have from eating at a smaller...
Read moreAll the dishes taste okay, but they are a bit on the salty side. The flavors are not as good as what the Google reviews suggest.
Probably because there are not many great Cantonese restaurants in Montreal, this place can still survive here. However, if this restaurant were to open in Toronto or the Greater Toronto Area, I think it would struggle to stay in business due to the high competition in the Cantonese restaurant scene in Ontario.
The prices here are also relatively high compared to other restaurants. The service is not very good, to be honest. The waitress was quite pushy in recommending seafood dishes, even though we had already said two or three times that we were not ready or weren’t interested at the moment. She still insisted on pushing the dishes she wanted us to order. While I do see that this restaurant has quite a few customers, I personally wouldn’t come back again, especially since it’s quite far from downtown. If I lived nearby, maybe I would, but I wouldn’t recommend it as highly as the...
Read moreThe food is good, however I'll have to echo everyone else's comments here.
The waitresses are extremely rude and condescending. When asking if the food will be coming out soon (politely), after waiting at the table for almost an hour, they snap back at you. When asking to add another dish to our order and we didn't necessarily know what the dish was called, they make fun of you and tell you to say it more clearly next time.
About pricing. If you don't order off the menu, you will never know what the real price is, because they make up the prices. We knew this, and asked for the price of every single thing we ordered, but then waitress got annoyed and started to say she doesn't know and to ask the boss yourself.
It is true that they will try to push for more expensive items, but they still wont tell you the price of it lol.
After getting all our food that night, we just lost our appetite because of how we were treated. Sadly, this will probably be the last time...
