Ordered lo mein noodles. Asked if they could make it spicy. Person on the phone taking my order says "ok" and we left it at that. After the call it dawned on me "he didn't ask me how spicy" I knew I might of been on trouble. Went to get my food staff friendly. Got home. Opened food. Ate food. Face turned red from spice. I kept eating cause I made my bed I gotta lay in it. Didn't even eat half before I gave up. They weren't playing when I said "make it spicy" overall 10/10 would do it again

We had ordered takeout from here the other night.I have to say the prices weren’t bad and the portions were generous.The egg rolls and spring rolls were good.I was not satisfied with the Wonton soup,did not like the broth.The house special fried rice was alright but needed a little more flavour.The chicken chow mein was a little boring it needed more flavouring as well.The beef with broccoli like the chow mein didn’t have that bite.The honey garlic spareribs were good.The general chicken good and the spicy beef was good.This is a corner takeout and delivery service that has been here a long time and not a full restaurant.

This is I thought would have been a solid 5. But only rated a 3 to my taste buds as I write for my 24 million plus readers. I want to give you the true review when picking a place so you can have a enjoyable meal while you spend your hard earn dollars 💵 The food here was just average and lacked the bold flavors I was hoping for. It almost seemed like there wasn’t enough salt in the dishes. As we know that enhances and intensifies the flavours more. Not salty but salt on the right note. • Wonton Soup: The broth was darker than I’m used to, which threw me off, and the flavor didn’t stand out. • House Special Fried Rice: A disappointment—there were only a couple of shrimp and tiny, almost invisible pieces of chicken scattered sparingly. The rice itself was a bit too al dente for my liking. • General Tso’s Chicken: Not bad, but leaned too much on the sweet side. • Beef and Broccoli: The broccoli was overcooked to the point of falling apart, which made it less enjoyable. • Spring Roll: It had a nice crunch, but the filling was bland and underwhelming. • Spare Ribs: Overly sweet, which masked the flavor of the meat. • Beef and Spicy Pepper Dish: One of the better dishes—nicely spicy, though the peppers were slightly overcooked. • Egg Roll: Soggy and uninspiring. Overall, the food was just “meh.” Nothing stood out as particularly bad or amazing, but it wasn’t flavorful enough for me to return. If you’re looking for bold, fresh Chinese flavors, this might not be the place. They could have been having a one of. I always say to my readers. Your luck could be better than mines is they were having an off day. 😇

I ordered a dinner for 4 and placed it for delivery. I gave them my address and they told me 1 hour. 38 minutes after ordering they called me and said I lived too far away to deliver. This would not have been an issue if they told me right away and I could have called another place to order. I really suggest they either tell people when they call right away or put something on your website to say you only deliver in a certain km. The drive to my house is only 15 mins, it’s not that far. Extremely upset as now I have to wait another 1 hour likely to even get food from somewhere.

Great takeout. Try the Cantonese-style sweet and sour pork, it was delicious! Friendly staff and reasonable prices.

After many disappointing Chinese food on the Mountain (Hamilton in general) , I think we found a spot (hopefully consistent) where we're happy with the food and service. The price, taste and quality of the food was good. The soup wasn't the greatest, but rice, wings and spicy chicken stood out.
