| - I'll admit I was surprised with the current average rating (2 stars). My wife's uncle took us here. I think that since he knows the owner and the staff, we had a good dining experience here. The food was great overall and I would rate it 4 stars. However, as others have stated, the decor is very dated and odd. As a combined experience, I felt 3 stars is appropriate.
The Peking duck was excellent. Crispy, tasty, very well prepared. You make your own roll. The sliced cucumbers and green onions were not finely sliced/chopped like you see in other places. But once you put them in a roll and take a bit, it doesn't really matter.
We had a great white fish (not sure which one, I didn't ask). It was topped with a sauce of minced pork and preserved vegetable. We also had fried tofu, lettuce wraps with minced pork and nuts, and gai lan with garlic.
The staff were prompt and efficient. The only complaint was that the backs of the chairs were sticky, which I attributed to old chairs with a worn paint stain in a humid environment (it was hot and humid in Toronto that day).
