Wow! Amazing service! A rare find in Yellowknife. A small error was made with our delivery and they fixed it super fast (in 20 min) with no extra charge!!! We have been here for 20 years and haven’t found any better Chinese food. Always fresh, always piping hot. Recommended 100%

Had the Szechuan beef, asked extra spicy and it came just right. Vegetables were crunchy the way I like them.

My go to place for quick chinese food since the 90s and it never dissapoints. I was surprised this time though, the rice and deep fried shrimp were so good.

Surprisingly excellent Cantonese-style cuisine! We had the eggplants, sweet and sour pork, steamed veggies, lamb stew and the Taiwanese egg and shrimp omelette which was incredible (such juicy succulent prawns in a soft steamed egg scramble). They are Canto-taste buds approved Friendly and kind service from the waitress. Thank you for a good meal!

The server was really friendly and the portions of food were huge! A little be too salty for us but still worth to try.

Staff are nice, friendly and welcoming. The food is tasty and the quantity is big enough for sharing. The location is good and easy to find. The price is reasonable.

Located in the basement of the Scotia Centre this nice sized Chinese restaurant offers lots to choose from in their Buffet. I really enjoyed how they were efficiently set up to ensure you can get in and out quickly during the work day lunch rush. Decently priced for being in Yellowknife. I found everything in the buffet was made hot and fresh. Highlights of the buffet were definitely the sauteed shrimp and the homemade pie for dessert. I definitely recommend coming here for any meal as the staff were friendly, prompt and courteous. This will now be my go to place whenever a craving for chinese food comes around.
