Phenominal! Went there at 845p and they closed at 930p. We just beat the crowd because not more than 4 minutes after we walked in, I kid you not 14 people walking behind us lol We were greeted by an employee named Charlene who was one of the sweetest, nicest, friendliest employees we had met on our trip! She introduced the menu to us and how we would pay first then be seated and they would bring everything out to us no problem. EVERYONE loved their food; udon steak to spicey ramen to fried rice. I had the udon which was a huge serving, the noodles were thick and chewy and perfectly seasoned as well as the steak and the broccoli. This, made for one hell of an amazing breakfast the next day as it tasted even better! All of the staff were incredibly friendly and took care of us, and I forget her name but the young lady with large round glasses helping in the dining area was super sweet and friendly as well. This place is an amazing spot and prices weren't crazy either. Also, dining area and bathrooms were spotless. What a gem! A couple people scoffed at the notion that they charge a mandatory tip for dining in? I see no problem with this as the mandatory was 15% for parties under 6 and they're probably getting a lot of people that dine in and don't leave a tip. Well in america, this is the Tipping culture and that's how some people get paid. No need to leave bad reviews

The food was amazing, even better than we expected! We loved our private seating and the overall vibe. The upfront tip was totally worth it because the young lady who looked after us was fantastic.

Whatever you do, don’t go to red Dragon Chinese restaurant the food is not even Chinese. The service is nonexistent and the atmosphere is literally African. If you’re looking for Chinese food literally any other place is better. Do not go here. It is terrible. I found hair in my food if I could give this a zero star, I would. ONE STAR.

Great gem near the falls. It was a perfect place to get away from all the tourists, relax and have a sit down meal. Udon noodles were amazing and the Steak Teriyaki fried rice was cooked perfectly and full of flavor! Worth the extra money (15% tip up front) to chill out, use clean bathrooms and have the best service! The 3 women were AMAZING!! So kind and sweet. Highly recommend.

Busy with dine in patrons. We order take out, they were very pleasant while we place our order and took the time to go over it prior to payment. Told it would be 10-15 minute wait, it was close to 25 minutes. When we got back to our hotel we noticed our order was wrong. I ordered a noodle bowl and up with a rice bowl. Large portions but lacking some real flavour, decently priced. Overall a good take out option.

Let me just say me and my family were having trouble trying to find a nice place to have dinner after a tiresome day walking around Niagara Falls and we came across this place, and let me say, this is such a beautiful and outstanding place, we arrived and were greeted by 2 workers who were literal angels and treated us with nothing but kindness, the food here was impeccable, and might I say any time I come back to Niagara I will be coming back here

Very Polite Staff! Even though they were short staffed, food came at a reasonable time. Cooked to order, and real, authentic chicken.
