Overall, the experience was okay, but there are a few areas that could be improved. Our server was friendly, but there were times when communication was a bit difficult when we had questions. We also weren’t informed that ordering was done online; we were only asked to scan the QR code, so we had to figure out the ordering process ourselves. In addition, no one checked in on our table during the meal to see if everything was satisfactory. The lamb chops were enjoyable, but the vegetables served alongside them seemed undercooked for our taste. We were also a little surprised that the dish came with spaghetti rather than noodles, as we were expecting something more in line with the restaurant’s Asian cuisine. That said, we finished our meals and found the food decent overall. With a bit more seasoning and attention to flavor, the dishes could be improvedz We appreciate the effort and wish this new place the best!

The food was overly salty, oily, and disappointing. The chicken contained a lot of fat and was undercooked, which was unacceptable. The pineapple fried rice was also poorly prepared, as the rice was mushy rather than light and fluffy. The service was equally disappointing. According to the restaurant's website, they close at 10:00 p.m. We even called ahead and made a reservation for 8:30 p.m., yet no one informed us that they would be closing at 9:00 p.m. We arrived only 10 minutes late due to traffic, and upon arrival, we were told they were already closing. To make matters worse, our table was dirty when we were seated. When we raised our concerns, the staff member simply stated that the owner was not present. This gave the impression that good service is only provided when the owner is there, which is not how a restaurant should operate. Although the restaurant serves halal food, I would not recommend it. The food quality, cleanliness, and customer service all fell far below expectations. Overpriced for no good reason.

I never write google reviews but this place was so terrible to the point where I just felt like I had to. This is some overpriced bull... 25$ for the smallest unseasoned portions. Calling it "authentic Chinese food" is so misleading as the food here was literally just Americanized Asian food (at this point just go to Manchu Wok, it would taste better anyways). On top of that the service was SO bad and the person on the phone when I was making my reservation was so rude and dismissive. After reading other reviews it seems like this is a recurring problem. The whole experience was just so disappointing. For 200$ you can afford much tastier Chinese food that's actually worth your money anywhere else. The dishes here not only looked visually unappealing but it also tasted mid. No joke, their best dish was fried rice. Yikes. Anyone rating this lace above two stars is getting paid to lie. Don't go.

Hi, thank you for sharing your feedback, even though we're sorry it came from such a negative experience. We take all reviews seriously, including the difficult ones. We do want to clarify that we are not an authentic traditional Chinese restaurant — we are a Halal Hong Kong-style Chinese restaurant, which is a distinct concept that blends influences in its own way. We understand that may not be for everyone. Regarding the service and the phone interaction, that is something we do not take lightly and will be addressing with our team directly. We are still in our soft opening and have a lot of growing to do. We appreciate the honesty and hope that one day we'll have the chance to change your mind.

Hi Amari, thank you for visiting us and for sharing your feedback. We're sorry the food didn't meet your expectations. We are a Halal Hong Kong-style Chinese restaurant, which tends to be milder and more savory in flavor compared to other Asian cuisines — so if you were expecting bold spices, we can understand the surprise! We are still in our soft opening and are actively working on improving our dishes. We hope you'll give us another chance and explore more of our menu — there's a lot more to discover!

This is not an authentic Hong Kong 茶餐廳, not even close, it is a Halal Chinese style restaurant. I ordered a Curry Lo Ding with beef brisket that is watery, and no taste. Baby carrot and cherry tomatoes in curry? I do not recommend this restaurant for anyone expecting an authentic Hong Kong style experience.

Hi Wallis, thank you for your feedback. We are a Halal Hong Kong-style Chinese restaurant, which means our menu is inspired by Hong Kong cuisine while being adapted to Halal standards. This naturally involves some creative differences in ingredients and preparation, which is part of our concept. That said, we hear your feedback on the curry and the flavor profile, and we are continuously working to improve our dishes during this soft opening period. We appreciate you visiting and hope this context helps set the right expectations for future guests.

We arrived at 6 pm on a Saturday and we were seated right away. Our waitress was very nice , she brought special dishes for all the kids. We ordered four dishes the HK beef noodles and the scallops were excellent. The general Tao and beef curry were missing flavour. I think they have space for a lot of improvement but we had a wonderful time.

We were a group of 11 people and had made a reservation the day before. Unfortunately, the experience started off poorly. The welcome and customer service were almost non-existent, especially from the owner. When we arrived, we had to wait around 5 minutes just to get an answer about where we should sit. After that, the owner led us to our table and started dragging chairs around in a way that felt unprofessional and as if he was annoyed to be serving us. We ordered 11 dishes. To be fair, the Pad Thai was very good. However, the General Tao was disappointing, as it contained strange pieces that did not seem to be chicken. They looked more like tofu or something else. Another odd detail was that half of the water cups were plastic while the other half were glass, which made the service feel inconsistent. The most frustrating part came when it was time to pay. An 18% tip was automatically added to the bill, even though the service was minimal. The staff simply brought the food to the table; they did not even serve water. Overall, the food was mixed, but the service was very disappointing. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this restaurant.

Hi Firas, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize that your group's experience did not reflect the welcome and service you deserved, especially for a party of 11 with a reservation. We hear you on all fronts and are actively working on improving how we greet and accommodate our guests — this is something we take very seriously. We understand it can feel frustrating when the service didn't meet expectations, and that feedback has been noted by our team. We're glad the Pad Thai hit the mark! We are still in our soft opening and have a lot of room to grow. Your feedback goes directly to our team and helps us improve. We truly hope you'll give us another chance down the road.

We had a wonderful treat tonight. We were the first customers here on their opening day, and we just came back. We tried the pad Thai, Curry Beef Udon Soup, General Tao’s chicken, and HK style Beef Noodles and we really enjoyed all of them. Their beef is very tender and the chicken is the most tender chicken I have ever tried. Taro milk tea and mango passion slush were amazing and Waffles are a must try. We will definitely go back inshallah.

Came here with a group of 7 and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. First, if you’re even a few minutes late for your reservation, your table will been given away. The attention to detail was lacking throughout the experience. The plates were served so wet that we had to dry them ourselves before using them. The biggest issue was our first appetizer, the chicken wings. They were severely undercooked - the inside was still red and bloody. We brought it to the server’s attention, he immediately agreed that it was unacceptable. At that point, we had completely lost our appetite. We told the staff that we would pay for our drinks but wanted to cancel the rest of our order and leave. To their credit, they offered the drinks on the house, which was appreciated given the circumstances. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience, and unfortunately not one we would repeat.

Hi Mahnoor, thank you sincerely for your feedback. We are so sorry you and your group had to go through this — it's truly not the experience we want for anyone. We want to be transparent: we are still in our soft opening phase, and while that doesn't excuse what happened, we are actively working for better service and holding ourselves to a higher standard every day. Undercooked food in particular is something we take very seriously and have addressed with our kitchen team directly. We're grateful for your honesty and hope you'll give us another chance once we've had the opportunity to improve. We'd love to make it up to you.

Great first impression, chinese food halal in the west? Yes please and alhamdullilahhhhhh Loved the shrimp and chicken general tao the pad thai noodles and beef hit the spot and something else we ordered a bunch of plates for the table they were yummy! My 2 cents : only for nostalgia I wish the spring rolls came with a plum sauce it was a stronger sauce not my favourite. For a new resto the kitchen and serving staff are clearly hard at work much appreciated and ill be coming back again! 1/1001 nights completed 1000 to go! Parking available, easy ipad system for walk ins and reservations, clean space. Happily stuffed. Thank you!

Update 5/30/26: the owner answered my review. It cannot be a coincidence that myself and multiple other people (in the reviews) also had a bad experience at this restaurant. Despite me not being Muslim, I wanted to support a halal based restaurant based on the owner's kindness and food online. I hope he takes my comments and of those before/after me seriously, as whoever is working at the reception is representing his restaurant (for us, a lady who was on her phone when we came in and left), as this will affect their business in the future. Had I not insisted we stayed, we never wouldn't spent money at this restaurant. I sadly did not read the recent reviews before coming here. I started following the owner on Instagram before the restaurant was even ready for opening. I wanted to support him and I asked my family to come with me from downtown to his restaurant. We came May 30th, to dine in. The minute we were coming in, the girl at the reception area immediately walked away, while talking on the phone. She went all the way to the back, where the owner was. We had to get his attention and even asked him if they were open. We waited more than 5 minutes for him to come and we were the first customers of the day. We only stayed because I wanted to try the food I saw online. We had to be after the owner/waitress for individual plates, napkins and water. Not once did they check on us without asking for something.The food was alright, but not worth the almost 25$ per plate (100$ total for a fried rice, general tao, beef noodles, diet coke and spring rolls). My mom and I let the owner know that the customer service was non existent, but he seemed to be at a loss for words, as he stayed in a state of shock and then walked away without saying anything. We are a non Muslim family, and the Muslim customers coming in were warmly greeted and welcomed, while we weren't even greeted or explained to how to order (via printed out QR code). I will not be coming back and will think twice before supporting a business I find on Instagram.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Ryan. We’re genuinely sorry your visit on May 30th didn’t meet your expectations, as we always strive to make every guest feel welcome. We’d like to respectfully provide some context. Muhammad, our owner, personally attended to your table that morning — you were our first guests of the day. He assisted your family with your requests, including accommodations like ice and other items, and did his best to ensure you were taken care of. We also want to address the comment about differential treatment based on religion. We want to be very clear: we greet and welcome every single guest equally, regardless of background, religion, or ethnicity. This is a core value of our restaurant and something we take seriously. We’re saddened this impression was left. Regarding the feedback on wait time and service flow — we acknowledge there is always room to improve, especially in our early days, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We wish you and your family all the best, and our door remains open if you’d ever like to give us another chance. — The 1001 Nuits Team

I visited this restaurant expecting authentic Chinese halal cuisine based on its branding and reviews, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing. The quality of the food overall was poor and did not meet expectations. The Hong Kong beef noodles were extremely watery and lacked the depth of flavor typically associated with this dish. The pineapple shrimp fried rice was underwhelming and did not stand out in any way. The lamb chops were particularly confusing — the dish seemed like an unusual fusion of Italian, South Asian, and Chinese influences, making it difficult to identify any authentic Chinese culinary roots. Having dined at many Chinese restaurants over the years, I found several menu items unfamiliar and unlike dishes commonly found in traditional Chinese cuisine. While the halal concept is appreciated and fills a niche in the market, the food itself did not reflect the authenticity that is being advertised. The restaurant has a nice concept and atmosphere, but in my opinion, its strong ratings appear to be driven more by the halal Chinese concept than by the quality or authenticity of the food. Those seeking a genuine Chinese dining experience may leave disappointed. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

Hi Kimberly, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback — we genuinely appreciate it. We're sorry the experience didn't meet your expectations, and we'd love to offer some context. Our cuisine is specifically Hong Kong-style Chinese, which is distinct from mainland Chinese cooking. Hong Kong food is known for its creative East-meets-West influences, which is why dishes like our lamb chops may feel like a blend of different culinary traditions — that fusion is actually very characteristic of authentic Hong Kong cuisine. We understand this style may not be what every guest is expecting, and we wish that had been clearer upfront. We are still in our soft opening and are continuously working on improving both our food quality and how we communicate our concept to guests. We hope you'll consider giving us another try with this in mind — we'd love the chance to show you what Hong Kong-style dining is all about!

The service was really bad but honestly because it was a new restaurant we didnt think too much of it. The food was very disappointing. We got the general Tao chicken, the sakura fried rice and the noodles. It did not taste fresh at all, the chicken was alright, but the fried rice was dry and tasted bland. As for the noodles, it was missing a bit of everything. When you go there just order one dish first to see if you like it.

2* because I respect what this place is doing, but my experience was poor and they need to work on some things: - we were asked to wait to be seated even though tons of tables were available because "there was 2 large groups waiting to be seated". That would be fine, but there were 2 people tables available and they don't know how to load balance, so they still had us wait until the big groups were seated to seat us on one of the several empty tables. - doesn't seem like many of the workers have restaurant experience. They don't greet you and the fact that you pay at the front after means you wait a long time before being acknowledged because other people are paying - we were finally seated and we waited 45 mins and our food didn't come. We asked about it multiple times. Turns out at the end that the wrong QR code was put on our table so I guess the food went somewhere else? Either way, the staff loosely apologized, but mostly just explained that "we ordered for the wrong table". We didn't choose the QR code that was put on our table. We decided to leave. Would like to give it another chance some day, maybe when they get more experience.

Hi, thank you for the 2 stars and for respecting what we're trying to build — that genuinely means a lot to us. We are deeply sorry for the string of issues you experienced. The seating situation, the wait, and especially the QR code mix-up — that last one is entirely on us, and we completely understand how frustrating it must have been to wait 45 minutes only to leave without food through no fault of your own. A loose apology from our staff was not enough in that moment, and we sincerely apologize for that. We are still in our soft opening with a team that is learning, and you're right that many of our staff are new to the restaurant industry. We are actively training and working on all the operational details you pointed out — from seating flow to table management to how we greet and acknowledge our guests. Your feedback is incredibly detailed and helpful, and we will be using it directly to improve. We truly hope you'll come back one day and see the difference. We'd love the chance to make it right.
