Our first time ordering. Food was deliciously seasoned. Nice n fresh. Definitely want to try some of the rest of the menu. For Chinese style food in Kanata, I've tried the rest, this one's the best.

Best Chinese food in the west end. My family and I go regularly now. It’s a local family business where the food is delicious and the prices are great. I always crave their green beans with minced pork and deep fried garlic ribs. They are my favourite green beans across the hundreds of Chinese restaurants that I have been to.

Amazing food. Everything is freshly cooked. The sauces are perfect. Amazing pepper beef -the best in town- and great chicken options. After many Chinese restaurants in Ottawa this is the best one. Even the tea is better than other places. The egg roles amazing too, and also the best ones in the last 20 years. I hope will it will keep the same amazing cooking for the years to come. Only minus, is not very clean, but with only one person it is understandable.

Review from December 2023: new restaurant location near the Kowloon Market. The interior is completely different and clean. Small note: This is a Cantonese restaurant not Canadian Chinese food, although there are some dishes that are westernized that I would recommend too. - Spring rolls are good. - sweet and sour pork was good. Tender. - Black bean rice noodles with beef are probably the best in Kanata Stittsville. Better than Rideau restaurant that closed down, Cafe Orient. Maybe better than Ng’s on Merivale. I have finally found a good restaurant with Xi Jiu Nau Ho! - They have dimsum all day except a few items like har gow (steamed shrimp dumpling) and dan tat (egg tart) that is also served until 2pm. The pricing was fine in the restaurant and the service was good and efficient. I will return to try more dishes. Old review from 2019: Tender pepper beef -good. Pepper salt porkchops - Tasted good... but not as good as the shrimp. Steamed shrimp balls (3) - very good! Cantonese noodles - very good! Lots of tender chicken, broccoli, bbq pork, etc... Pepper salt shrimp - best in town. Didn't have shells and the taste of the batter is delicious!

I got takeout from here earlier this week as I wanted to try somewhere different than I normally go to for Chinese. The food was so good I will only be getting from this restaurant from now on!!! So yummy and fresh.

We placed a large order for a New Years party. The food was fantastic, not only was it ready on time for pick up it was hot and fresh. We have been looking for a good Chinese restaurant for a while and this is the place.

I have only ever ordered in but this is some of the best Chinese food I have ever had. It’s always fresh, warm and delicious. I have ordered twice and both times I was very impressed. Portions are good and come with a mix of veggies and meat. I really recommend. Would love to see more sustainable packaging in the future (but that goes with most takeout spots).
