Best Chinese restaurant in Canada

K	Kristine Harper on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really good. Honestly super lucky to have a place like this in the valley. Everything is cooked perfect, technique is aced, tastes fantastic, generous portions. This is the best of the best. Anything below 5 stars probably reviewed before they had time to eat here. One of The Valley's Gems.
A	Anthony Moore on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As a first nations. I did not feel comfortable in any restaurants or hotels in Courtney. And I'm a big guy and takes a lot to make me uncomfortable.
Y	Yue Mei on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ First time trying from them. Order 2 dishes and one soup. The canton chow mein and soup was salty, the beef chow fun was not beef chow fun was beef chow mein. And the soup and little black stuff in as well in noodles too.
V	Virginia's Soap-Deli on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We usually have good food here. We order off the menu and have never had the buffet. The service is usually good and the food hot and fresh. Tonight - the Monday of Family Day weekend - they were full with 2 huge tables of Kiwanis Courtenay members celebrating Chinese New Year, a couple of other reserved tables and lots of to go orders. They found us a table in the back of the restaurant more than big enough for the 3 of us. We said if they had to seat more people we'd happily share the table. The food was excellent. The best deep fried wontons we've ever had (as you can tell by the photo of the best empty plate). They had red table clothes and oranges on the table for New Year's and little shrimp crackers. (So sweet) We ended up sharing the table with a lovely couple and had a great time at dinner. Thanks to Robert from the Kiwanis for the the yummy cake and happy birthday to the gentleman celebrating his 94th birthday! Thank you to the very attentive and friendly staff.
D	Donna-Marie Woods Contrads on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Grabbed some take out last night. I ordered the Golden Carriage Hot Pot, it was loaded with Shrimp,Chicken, BBQ Pork, Tofu +Ginger, it was enough to feed 3 people. And I had an appy of Chinese Sausage was perfect. The Food was So Good!!!. I'm definitely going back
N	Nikki Starr on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Heard good things about thos place so we took a shot. BLAH. The wonton soup broth was good, and the noodles were (just) ok BUT the amount of cabbage in the food was unreal!! At least half the soup was cabbage! For $14?! It wasn't even Chinese cabbage, it was just plain old stinky cheap cabbage! The veggies we ordered was the same, half of it was cabbage and past its prime brocolli too. Yuk. Not one mushroom either. The fried rice was salty but ok and the lemon chicken was super thin way over battered and greasy (double fried?) The lemon sauce was good tho.prob the best thing g about the whole $79 order. Finally the "egg rolls" we ordered were just actually larger spring rolls. Very greasy and had 5 spice (YUK!!) Cinnamon doesn't belong in Chinese food!
M	Miko Ma on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Old school, nostalgic family run restaurant that offers the popular Chop Suey Nation fare (Southern Chinese cuisine adapted to suit the tastes of small towns and not found in traditional restaurants), and also authentic favourites many CBCs will remember from their childhoods. Food - The portions are absolutely massive for how they are priced. We had the Singapore curry vermicelli and asked them to kick the spice up a few notches. It did not disappoint - springy noodles with a bit of crispiness, clocked full of eggs and shrimp, and just the right level of curry for us. Also had the mapo tofu, which leaned more heavily towards the numbing ma than the hot la and had a good amount of chilli oil, but could have had bean taste. Lastly we had wonton just because who doesn’t love wonton, and ordered a small bowl. The bowl that came was not small. We asked if there was a mistake, and nope their small is really just that large. The wontons were plump and juicy, and the skins were thin and smooth. Surprisingly it came with some barbeque pork and broccoli. Service - The dishes came out quickly, and service was attentive and friendly. We appreciated that they looked over every so often to make sure we had enough water for the tea, but otherwise left us to our meal. After we had finished they came over to chat, and shared a bit of history and asked about ours.
S	S Blaikie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Consistently hot, fresh, and delicious. The staff are friendly, and the restaurant clean. I love the BBQ pork fried rice, and the boneless honey garlic pork. You will not be disappointed. I love going to the sit-in buffet too. Best Chinese in the Valley, and no one even comes close.
