needs improvment

i occasionally eat at this restaurant. but i avoided coming, due the fact that the tall woman always makes you buy her food on her car and puts the price higher than it should be. cleaning up the washroom would be a lot better. the cashier always in a bad mood. sometime taking 20 minutes to take the money. i do not like the fact that sometime they do not give you the change expecting all of it is tips.

Long-time customer

I've been a long-time customer of this restaurant. I'm satisfied with the service overall. But many of my friends are unwilling to go there because due to extremely poor service and poor hygiene. Actually the waiters have told me that their tip is extremely unfairly allocated, as management has the largest share of it, causing the waiters much unhappiness & inability to offer quality service. I see many comments posted here criticizing on the waiters' service, well now you know why. I stopped going to that restaurant now because the food prices keep increasing very frequently - when I inquire about food prices with the manager, he just makes a funny face and walks away without giving proper explanation. This rudeness expressed toward a long-time customer says a lot about management quality. Also, the bill was "mistakenly" inflated on many occasions (this happened to many people I know including myself) - I assume management was hoping people do not check the bill content and want to suck more money out of their customers in a dishonest fashion - so I suggest anyone going to that restaurant to please check your bill. Other than being advantaged with a good location, I do not see any other benefits this restaurants has to offer to its customers. I have now found many better restaurants to go to (like Summit Garden).

Good selection for Dim Sum but has its flaws

My boyfriend and I often go here because it's the only Dim Sum we know that uses carts in Mississauga. We particularly like it as they seem to have a much wider selection (e.g. crab claws, suckling pig) than normal restaurants which serve Dim sum. In terms of quality, I don't think they are best. I have had much better quality of food at other restaurants. Also, even though the selection is vast... What happened to the shui mai? How do you have crab claws and not shui mai?!?! (Edit: Found out you need to order the shui mai... I did and it was not good at all) I noticed the cart ladies seem to be a bit more strange than at other restaurants... Some will FLY past you, others will scream food names right at you. It is kind of fun for me and my boyfriend to laugh about. (I should note we are both Chinese and both have gone to various restaurants for Dim Sum, and we notice the cart ladies here are particularly strange) What I found particularly interesting is how many non-Chinese people eat here. I think it's the only Dim sum place I have seen to have such a variety of people here. I should note that this place gets amazingly busy around noon. My boyfriend and I tend to go around 10:30 or 11 and usually find a seat quickly. If you come at 12 (especially looking for a larger table) you are doomed! haha So to sum it up: -Amazing and sometimes unique selection... except that the shui mai has disappeared! -Decent food quality but not the best. E.g. The shrimp in the ha gow tastes fishy, the dough fritter in the chun fun is soggy sometimes, the spare ribs in the black bean spare ribs w/rice are so boney ahhh! -Strange cart ladies lol. Sometimes rude, sometimes friendly -Get there before 12 if you don't like waiting! It's actually more normal to eat Dim sum earlier in the day anyway :). Also, it seems one reviewer on here stated that the adults and kids are noisy. This is normal for a Chinese restaurant, especially as one as big as Emerald.

A few good items

I have been going to this restaurant for some time now but I only order the food I know is good because when I stray from certain items I find their food to be bland and salty. I thought the fried rice was good, it was a bit different as it has shredded lettuce in it which some people may not like but I found quite enjoyable. We also had a noodle dish which was also pretty good but aside from that I don’t really like anything else I have tried there. The service is quite inadequate as I found the servers rude and unfriendly. I know the place can get quite crowded but I think paying customers deserve more than having their money practically ripped from our hands. A smile and some polite service would go a long way. I also thought the eels, fish and lobster tank was in desperate need of cleaning. Some of the fish looked sickly and were floating sideways barley moving, it was quite a disgusting site.
