“ This is a great place to enjoy some Peking Duck at a reasonable price! Around 38$ for half a duck and 65$ for a whole one. The portions are large and filling and the food is great as well. I do wish they would have more skin and less meat for the duck slices but it was still tasty regardless. The sauce was flavourful and the toppings were nicely prepared as well. I do feel like the amount of cucumbers were lacking a bit for the amount of pieces duck. The service was fast but they weren't really friendly nor welcoming at all. ”
“ We had the Peking duck, crab tofu, yam with blueberries, and the fish. The food was very delicious overall, though a bit on the pricey side. The restaurant and washrooms were very clean. ”
