They've definitely tried to make this place more welcoming by revamping the interior. It's now bright and modern looking. Heck, the washrooms are even pretty decent when before I was scared to go down the steps!
The food is quite good for downtown standards. The BBQ pork was very moist and flavourful. I'd order that again any day. Duck was pretty good too. Stick with the BBQ options and the congee. We liked the noodles but really, the wontons were the biggest let down.
Pay at the cash register and leave your tip with the cashier. She will put your tip in the communal tip container.
