  • 3.5 stars Disclaimer: I read Yelp before coming to this restaurant and was prepared for the price of the dishes being expensive so my rating isn't based on the price. Parking is confusing but basically if you can't find a parking space at the front, you can park at the hotel parking for free because you are going to the restaurant. Reservations is recommended. This place was packed! There are many private rooms if you want to book for a group. The restaurant was bright and designed with a Chinese modern feel. Washrooms were surprisingly clean. There are two washroom locations, one inside the restaurant, individual rooms, and one at the hotel (you walk outside of the restaurant to get to the). I recommend the one in the restaurant because it is closer. Could be confusing! My bro went to the one outside and took a detour. We ordered: 1. Shredded lamb - moist and flavourful. 2. Ma po tofu - very spicy for me, but my family liked it. 3. White eel with black bean paste - too much black bean paste, but eel wasn't bad. 4. Inside out fish - crispy and no bones. Pretty good. 5. Duck $88 - we got a small plate with neck skin and sugar first. The skin was super crispy and nicely seasoned. We got two places of duck. One white meat and the other dark meat. The duck was juicy and tender. Pretty good. The server was cute because he hit a gong and said words of well wishes before serving the duck. We had 24 pieces of wraps that were super thin. The hoisin sauce tasted like black bean sauce, which was interesting. I wished they gave more condiments because there just wasn't enough for 24 wraps. I spoke with a server that said the duck comes from a free range Ontario farm hence there is hardly any fat on the duck. The duck is cooked with the same technique as the one in Beijing. I have to say, it was good. There was a good amount of meat and I was pretty full after. Tip: ask for the duck Carcass to take home. There was a lot of meat on it and you can make soup. They do not use the left over meat and put it in Fry rice. Dishes and quickly. Duck was served last. The servers were efficient and answered all my questions. A lot of people complained about the service on Yelp. Honestly, it's on par with most Chinese restaurant service so I was totally ok with it. They aren't proactive but did respond to our request to switch plates and get ice water. Overall my tips: 1. Ask for the duck carcass. 2. Get the $88 duck, not the $118. Not worth it. 3. They accept credit cards. 4. Park in the back for free. 5. Washrooms are better in the restaurant. 6. Reserve in advance. The prices are more expensive than other places but they do give big portions. I say have the mindset that it will be pricey and treat yourself. It was a good experience for me. $55 per person for 6 people. I would save this place for a special occasion though.
