Oriental Chu Shing Restaurant

Old-School hall setting serving classic dishes at very reasonable prices. One of the better "no frills" Oriental restaurants in Ottawa. Don't expect to be wooed by the decor or plate design. If you go with an appetite, you will be satisfied.

Came here specifically for the salted fish fried rice. Was not disappointed. Fantastic service and a more authentic menu. Parking is free on weekends but be prepared to do a bit of walking for a parking spot. Highly recommended and would not hesitate to return.

Best dimsum in the city. Go on the weekends. Finding free parking is sometimes difficult, but there are cheap paid lots with weekend rates nearby. There's the usual favorites and newer items, lots to choose from. Best if you go in a large group to try more food and share if you don't like it. Crowded at times but more options and more staff going around at peak times as well.

Chu Shing is a decent stop for dim sum. Across the street from Yangtze Restaurant, it offers a wide selection of small dim sum dishes, both on roll-by carts and the menu if you don't see something you like. Service can be mixed, so don't hesitate to flag down servers. Mango pudding is a favourite, but go for the tripe if you are feeling adventurous!

Was here on a recent Sunday. Can't beat this restaurant for being great value - a bargain. Huge portions. Eight dishes for our group of nine was enough. Though some of us were small eaters. Cash discount. If you eat here every month, and they recognize you, ask nicely for free fortune cookies or rice. Be nice and nice things may happen. No guarantee. Total bill came to $140 before tax and tip. So like $14/person.
