Review from Joey B.
Montréal, QC
This is one of my favourite restaurants to take special friends. They have a counter where you can eat and watch the cooks work GIANT woks under a whimsical dragon head. The real fun happens if you can snag one of the sit-down tables, since you have to take your shoes off, step up onto tatami mats and then sit cross-legged while you munch. How fun!
The restroom is always clean and pleasant smelling.
I recommend the Gado Gado, for the peanut blast. -
Review from Chu Z.
Hamilton, ON
I expected it to be somewhat inauthentic, but the result was even below my expectations. The tom yum soup reminds me of coconut-flavoured instant noodle broth, completely missing the hot and sour elements, and the yakisoba resembles chowmein, and was broken-up and too salty. I couldn't finish my food and I'm the type that always cleans the plate! However, service was friendly, the idea of sitting on the tatami mats a cute idea but felt gimmicky when you took in the rest of the restaurant's decor.

Used to be such a great little restaurant but it has gone down. Food is tasteless, portions are small, service is ordinary. Don't know what they did but it ain't what it used to be.

Review from Ivan P.

What a great, charming little place! I've visited it about 5 times and each time I order a new great unique tasting dish ( so far all were great!) I might not be a food expert but i know what tastes good- not a professional (ahem, snobby review). For a small place, my expectations are perfectly met by friendly staff, warm amiable atmosphere, quick service and an inexpensive meal. TOTALLY AUTHENTIC.
