Ordered roast pork rice and roast pork + BBQ pork rice. Roast pork was good... Skin was crispy and meat had a nice balance of lean and fat. BBQ pork was juicy with a bit of sweetness. For a Chinese BBQ place... It was very clean and tidy. Lady at the front was also very nice. Have seen some of the other negative reviews and oddly I didn't have any of those issues.

Love their takeout, simple dishes but taste just hit the spot. That's hard to do. Will definitely get more takeouts from here. Good packaging, maybe sellcmore nestea pop types, it usually goes well with this type of food.

Fairly clean place and convenience as there are few BBQ places in the area. Food is made the traditional way, have some cold drinks available as well which other BBQ places do not have. Price on the higher side compared to the food courts, but they are having some discounts right now.

We tried this place due to an Instagram post and it’s close to home so thought to take advantage of their 40% off deal. We didn’t love it but for the price you pay, you do get a lot of food. We ordered the beef brisket noodle soup - this was a good value! We ordered the large size which gave a lot of beef brisket and vegetables. Most places only give you a few pieces but the large size was packed with beef. For $21.50, that is what I’d expect though. The half roasted duck was ok but had a lot of bones. Could have just been that one as I’ve seen other photos that look better. Shanghai Noodles was full of cabbage and some decent sized shrimp. Only about 3-4 but the container was super full so you do get your value here though the taste was a bit bland. BBQ Fried Rice was decent. Also packed full. This was actually not bad. We also ordered the honey pepper chicken - I had thought this was wok-cooked but it’s lightly battered and deep-fried. It tasted fine - the kids liked that it was fried and sweet. Finally, I had a lunch portion of bitter melon and beef with rice. It came with soup and a spring roll. This was a good value - lots of rice, beef and bitter melon. All in all, pretty decent but nothing spectacular and some dishes were a bit bland. I think there are better options around, and it’s a bit confusing - are they trying to be authentic Chinese, or Canadian-Chinese food? There’s a little bit of both but neither really shine.

Tried this place because of the 40% discount. Ordered BBQ pork, roasted pork, and soy sauce chicken. All of the items were underwhelming. The roast pork had so many pieces that were just fat. The soy sauce chicken and BBQ pork was dry and the sauce was off. I wanted to like this place as it's very close by, but I'd rather drive a little further to get much better Chinese bbq.

Came here today to try out the new place. Their sign says 40% off all items. I went it and ordered half a roasted duck and when cashier told me the price, she said roasted duck is only 20% off and would not honer the 40% off which clearly states on the signs. Not coming back again

40% off on bbq, price is reasonable $12 for a box of meat but quality is not good. Ordered bbq pork, fatty meat and overly cooked. Skin is burned and hardly to chew. Place is for take out only and it’s a bit chaos when gets busy. No designated space to separate wait line and pick up line.

Ordered four mains and an app. Sweet & sour pork, Belachan beef fried rice, Chinese broccoli w/ beef, Cha siu and 6pcs of shrimp rolls. Total after discount came to $53. Sweet n sour pork was good but the pieces were quite huge. I like to eat meat but even for me this was a bit too big. Not too much battering so it was a good balance of both. Was not soggy too so they probably double fried the meat. Belachan fried rice, you can taste a bit of the spiciness but it's not spicy for all you spicy lovers out there. But the fried rice was fried well since each rice was separated and not sticking to each other. Chinese brocoli was cooked perfectly, not too soft and crispy still. Beef is alright. The cha siu is standard ordering, so you can't pick what part you want and how many pounds. The piece we got is half lean half fat, overall the dry parts were still somewhat moist not too dry. The shrimp roll was soggy by the time I got back home so can't give it a genuine review. However, did not get much shrimp inside the roll, mainly veggies. Comes with a side of mayonnaise dipping sauce. Classic. Overall the food was not bad. I had to pick it up during rush hour and going home was another 15-20 minutes. When I got home the food was still warm so definitely got the 'wok hay' (fire intensity) there. I'm sure if the food was eaten immediately after it was cooked it would have been much better. I forgot to take a picture of the food before eating so you can only see part of the food. What we ordered was more than enough for 4 people. And with the take out discount that they are promoting right now, it's definitely a bang for your buck. Noticed on the online menu, they have the group specials but don't list what is include. I have attached a picture of their group specials. There is no indoor seating so there is absolutely no atmosphere here if you are looking to dine in. Its literally a kitchen and a small pick up area. But this category is not important for me. There is enough parking but getting into the plaza is a little tougher depending on what time of day you go as it's located next to the GO station. Overall, definitely worth the try! 8/10
