Ha Long Bay

5 stars for service and ambience. 4 stars for food. This is a sit down Chinese restaurant. Our server was very nice and cheerful.My husband had the General Tso and I had the pad Thai. The pad Thai noodles were fairly soggy, and there wasn't much flavor. However, my husband enjoyed the General Tso and said the chicken was very fresh. We plan to return, and this time I will order a Chinese dish.

I was craving some dim sum. We arrived at 430 only to be told they stop serving dim sum at 4. I'm like "plleeaasse!" Nope Ordered veggie eggs rolls, which were great for a spring roll. Not an egg roll. The sweet and sour chicken was excellent. Very tender. Sauce was sweet and a bit tart. We ordered pho. Broth was a tad boring but has plenty of noodles and steak. Ended up adding soy sauce. That helped the flavour. Also had a small bowl of hot and sour soup. It was just ok. Not a ton of flavour. And we ordered the House style rice noodle with added veggies and chicken. It was beyond boring. Absolutely no flavour. I don't think it even had sauce on it. We loaded it up with soy and oyster sauce. That helped but we shouldn't have to do that. I'm sure we'll be back again to try some other stuff. I'd love to get there for dim sum.

Really enjoyed my food here and great service all around.Started with crab Rangoon which was very tasty. As for our entrees, I ordered a clay pot with seafood and tofu and also had mushrooms, carrots, and baby bok choy. This was so good and everything I love. It was also very light and flavorful and I couldn't stop eating it. It came with a small bowl of rice.My husband had a chicken pho with egg noodles. He's not a fan of rice noodles and it's nice that they have the egg noodles here which some places do not. He was happy with the flavor and ate it all up as I did. Meanwhile, our server and others working here always checked on us and made sure we were good to go. Would definitely come back here for their many options of Chinese and Vietnamese. They also have dim sum from 11-4pm.I've been here years ago which it was Ivory Chinese Bistro and it has been updated since then.

This is a hidden gem! Everything we've tried to far has been delicious. The staff is friendly, the food is great, and service is fast.

One of my favorite spots due to the taro boba being the best that I've had. I like the chicken pho and tofu vermicelli noodles, the chicken vermicelli isn't all that good.Dine in isn't as great as take out, I strongly dislike to say this, but if their friends and family come in they completely ignore other tables. My brother and I sat for 30 minutes waiting for our food, when their friends came in with a large party; they ordered their food and it came out before ours and a couple other tables. One thing I can say is the inside of the restaurant is immaculate, super elegant and welcoming.

Our favorite is the Shanghai fried noodles with chicken..we are allergic to seafood. Egg rolls are good. We come often while visiting in Dunedin. It's authentic. B

As a heads-up for those who like some good fried rice, Ha Long Bay makes a pretty good one. They don't just "doll-up" the fried rice that you get with the meals, they prepare it from scratch. I ordered the House Fried Rice and it was great.

Got back in touch with friends we've little of since COVID since the wife was immuno compromised. We were delighted to have lunch with them. They suggested Ha Long Bay that they highly recommended.We arrived a little after lunch hour and were seated right away, presented menus and gave our drink orders. The place was decorated very well for an Eastern atmosphere. We ordered steamed Pot Stickers for an appetizer. My wife ordered the Kung Pao Chicken with Peanuts, my friend's wife picked the Chicken & Shrimp Combo, my friend chose the Moo Goo Gai Pan along with Hot & Sour Soup and I went for the Beef & Meatball Pho. The Pot Stickers came hot and delicious. I did manage to get a pic before the last one was gone. Soup also came, some shared and said it was great, but not my taste. Our food came and was great. My Pho was great, plenty of meat and crisp veggies. I just wished for spice but the Sriracha helped a bit. I was a bit jealous of the Moo Goo, my fav, but I wanted something different. All the food was great and service was excellent as busy as they were.

So for those of you who don't know let me put you onto one of the best things about Asian cuisine. Dim sum is authentic Asian food made to order and served small plate style. The possibilities are endless and ha long bistro does it well, I did enjoy the shrimp and chive dumplings more than the shrimp ones. Everything I tried was excellent but I would advise you to eat the chicken feet last because they are crazy flavorful and should be eaten last or possibly with something to reset the palate before trying other things. The service was what I'd expect from any dim sum restaurant , friendly and quick paced. Overall I had an awesome experience and highly recommend you try ha long bistro for some dim sum !!

Amazing food takes a moment to make. It's great fresh Chinese and Vietnamese food. I love there spicy shrimp and you can go wrong with their veggie and noodle dishes. They care and it shows. Delicious.
