| - I'm not sure if I should even bother taking the time to write a review since yelp NEVER recommends my reviews but nonetheless, let's see what happens.
I ordered from here tonight and the delivery was quite fast. Their menu is extensive and there is a lot to choose from. I ordered the green beans with ground pork which was delicious, the special fried rice which honestly was quite possibly the best chinese rice I've ever had, the leek pancake which was quite good, the wonton soup and the salt and pepper tofu.
I feel that I should elaborate on the pros and cons of the salt and pepper tofu and the wonton soup. First of all, the salt and pepper tofu was really quite flavourful, the problem is that they use plastic containers to pack their food and anything fried should not be packed in plastic because it loses it's crispiness. It's the second time I order something crispy from this restaurant and it arrives not as crispy as it should be but I can tell that it was nice and crispy when they packed it. I'm going to have to either remember to only eat their crispy foods in person at the restaurant or ask for a different kind of packaging. As for the wonton soup, their wontons were yummy and the broth was fantastic, the problem with the wonton soup is that it is supposed to be a large meal sized soup for $8.50 and I felt like for that price I should have gotten more than 9 wontons, the rest of the container was packed with some kind of noodle. Their small sized soups only cost $2.50 and if you order dumpling (which are basically the same thing as the wonton) you get 18 for $9.99 so I just don't thing that the $8.50 I paid was good value compared to the other items on the menu. It left me wondering if I might of gotten more wontons if I had ordered 3 small sized wonton soups for $7.50.
One other thing I think I should mention although, they may have now resolved this issue or maybe not, if you order over the phone it can be quite difficult to get your order across since they have several different menus. I don't even bother ordering over the phone anymore, I just order online so there are no issues with having to explain what it is I want to order.
All in all, the food is really quite good!
