  • I find the negative reviews perplexing because I've been a regular customer since 2008 and aside their occasionally slow service and the annoying door chime, this restaurant is amazing, at least when it comes to the food. To all the people complaining that this is nothing like traditional Chinese food: that's why it's so good. It's an adaptation of Chinese cooking techniques to South Asian (Indian and Pakistani) tastes. It's pretty close to Thai food, I would say. The Hot and Sour soup is a good starter. Small is good for one person but for a group of people I would recommend a medium. When I'm feeling fat I get the chicken pakoras because they are good to nosh on. Everything on their menu serves about 4 people. If you're dining alone, you will naturally have left overs. The fried rice here is nothing like the bland, greasy converted or parboiled rice you get at a lot of North American Chinese joints. I recommend getting the chicken egg fried rice. If you're feeling adventurous, get one of the Chinese Biryani varieties. It's packed with flavour and other stuff. Hot Garlic Chicken is probably my favourite. You can ask them to make it with white meat. It's an extra dollar but well worth it, in my opinion. Chilli chicken, Manchurian chicken and Salt & Pepper Chicken are also good. I liked their Orange Chicken but it's nothing like the stuff you get at other places (not sweet and crunchy) so if you're seeking that flavour, you won't get it here. I've never tried and their beef, fish, and shrimp dishes but a lot of them are variants of the chicken dishes so I imagine they're great. Now the noodles: they're the best. I have brought several people here and everyone agrees that they've never had noodles like this. I recommend the Szechuan Chicken noodles. You can add shrimp for an extra dollar if you're me. It's pretty good. Manchurian ones are also excellent. I wouldn't bother with the desserts here but the mango lassi is pretty epic. Other stuff: decor is whatever but not terrible. It's not embarrassing to bring people here. Bathrooms are relatively clean. Sometimes it's pretty noisy. After 6:30 pm it gets quite busy. Weekends are busiest. If you can, sit away from the door, especially during winter. That door chime is pretty irritating. Music can be that way also.
