Fire food. The combo #7 is a value deal. The sweet and sour chicken balls and general tso's chicken are delicious and fresh. I finally understand the hype around Cathay's egg roll too.
🏴 Flag as inappropriateThe upside of the restaurant is that they hand prepare many of their products. I think almost anything breaded and their egg rolls are made fresh here vs some Chinese Food restaurants are purchasing wholesale in bulk from Sysco and other suppliers. When you visit you can see a bit into the kitchen and it does not look like a disaster which is a plus.
The downsides are the staff are not friendly at all - I would give them at best a 4 out of 10 for demeanor and helpfulness. But the biggest detriment is the portion sizes are small. Your going to be paying $8 to $13 for what amounts to less then 2 cups of food. We found their portion sizes are much smaller then other Chinese Food restaurants we have tried in Ottawa. Their full order is like the half order at other places.
So we cannot recommend. There are simply better choices that provide equal quality but better value for the money.
Best Chinese Canadian food in Ottawa. Clean kitchen, healthy food. Low/fair pricing, large menu, VERY HIGH QUALITY!! Love everything from here!!

Finally a place that has good black ended eggrolls. So hard to find in ottawa. The lemon chicken and crispy beef were really good. I only wished the fried rice would be a little bit more flavourful but worth the try.
