Fantastic Chinese food, I would say it was the best I’ve ever had. The person who owns this place was lovely, genuine and she cares for her customers/food service. Very attentive. I’d definitely come here again. Bonus, there’s no nut dishes, which my partner has a nut allergy, so it was nice that they don’t service it.

From the outside it looks like a typical corner cafe BUT the chinese menu is the hidden gem, everything freshly prepared and cooked to order. The food tasted amazing, we were a party of 5 and only sorry we couldn't sample all the menu, I'm definitely going back for another try. Forget the big restaurants, treat yourself to some real chinese food.
