The food is excellent. They bring it out as it's made, hot and fresh. The squid is amazing. The hot & sour soup is the best I've ever had, barr none!
The service is average at any time. Several servers speak little english, but in the end - the food makes the trip from Guelph well worth the while each time we go!

I used to adore this restaurant, mainly because it actually offers authentic Chinese food as opposed to all the chicken ball stuff out there. Unfortunately, their service and food have gone downhill. In recent times, you can really taste how unfresh the food and oil were, especially the seafood. The service was also horrible. Firstly, they forgot our order and we had to ask for it 5 times. When it arrived, it was almost 45 minutes later. The waitress ignored the entire time and complained directly to us that we didn't give enough tip even though her service was worse than horrible. When we said this she told us never to come back, which is exactly what I'm doing!
I have always enjoyed every visit. If there is anything really worth complaining about, it would be that the washrooms are deplorable. The only other thing, which has become a source of amusement rather than an annoyance, is that the soup and appitizers might come at any time, not necessarily before the entrees. The owners and staff are always friendly. Contrary to an earlier review on this site, I have always found the Dim Sum to be excellent, as compared to the many I have tried in Toronto and elsewhere. Overall, I love this place. I have been enjoying their food and hospitality for over 14 years now (both in their present location and in their former location (further down King St, near downtown Waterloo, where Loomis and Toombs Music is now).

Great food at great prices :). The service was a little slow, however the food was well worth the wait! This is definately a great place to go to if you don't like "Canadian Chinese" type food.
We had chow mein, beef in oyster sauce, and fried pot stickers. They were all delicious.
I highly reccomend this place.
