"This place is such a little gem of the community. The food is simple and good, and exactly what you expect. The owners are genuine and kind. I enjoy coming here and occasionally drove across the city to satisfy a craving for their food."

"This place is so cute! The service was great, food came out hot & was well prepared. The atmosphere is cozy diner meets shabby chic. We ordered the almond chicken and beef and broccoli - both rices were cooked nicely. Our favorite was the Beef and broccoli. Really extensive menu choices as well."

- Katrina S., Calgary

"Classic Chinese Western Style Cafe. If you know you know. Dont come for the decorations, just the very cheap good eats. These cafes are a dying breed and I'm glad this one is STILL here. Daily Special for $15? 3 items? Just WOW! Food was fast, hot, and delicious!"
