This place is close to a pub we used to go to all the time! We were over in no time and walked in. It was pretty empty but it was raining pretty hard when we dropped in. We had a scan at the menu and they had some specials. You could get a main but you could also make it a combo where you get a side and a drink. After having a quick look through the menu, I definitely wanted a scallion pancake with an egg. I combo'd it so I got a hash brown as well as a milk tea. We grabbed a seat, the seating in here is limited but I can't see people sitting in here for too long. I just wanted to give you a heads up in case you come with a large group. Our order was out in no time in a bunch of wrapped paper wrappers. I ripped open all my bags to check out my breakfast and they looked alright. The pancake with egg was decent as well as the hash brown I got. The milk tea wasn't overly sweet. This place has quite a number of different breakfast options and interesting ones that I'd definitely come by to try something else. The items I ordered were decent enough I'd grab them in a pinch if I was in the area. The service was super friendly and prices weren't bad!

SO GOOD. The food is DELICIOUS…read more This small Taiwanese place is great for a to-go style meal. The seating section is small so not the best for big groups or hanging out. We ordered: Braised Pork Rice Traditional Taiwanese Rice Ball (the fried egg one) Ham Puff Pastry Sandwich They were all around $10-$12 each The problem was the incredibly long wait time. For these 3 items to go, I probably waited 15-20 minutes which is too long, but I forgave them after tasting the food

Atmosphere was very chill, still great for people hanging out or who just want to study in a nice cafe.

Small but convenient location with a good amount of seating bar and table height seating. It was quiet on a weekday afternoon so I got my order in around 10 mins. The chicken was great, very crunchy, well seasoned both on the outside and the inside, and the chicken was juicy and tender. Since the last time I ate Monga, admittedly quite a while ago, they've changed the chicken from bone in to boneless. A nice touch for making it easier to eat on the go. The portion size is similar, well enough for a hungry single person or 2 people to share as a snack, and pricing is very fair given the downtown Toronto area. Only area for improvement would be letting the chicken sit a bit longer post frying, as my chicken was very greasy. I let it sit a while to drain so no big deal. Staff were nice and explained the chicken types differ by breading - crunchy being a type of potato starch, the original fried is flour, and the lazy chicken a crunchy powder. I'll be back next time I'm craving fried chicken and am in the area

There are also daily deals from Monday to Thursday, with my favourite being the popcorn chicken on Thursdays. Due to the name, I had expected a snack but what you get instead is enough for a full meal - especially if you add on the $1 fries. The spice powder is addicting and adds quite a kick. The wait times can be longer during dinner hours, but they usually tell you at the time of order so you know what to expect.

This is a Taiwanese restaurant serving dishes in Bento boxes. The soft opening was on 2022-12-09…read moreand grand opening will be on 2023-01-29. It is mostly a takeout restaurant (small interior space) but there is counter seating for 2 and you allowed to stand at the other counters to eat if you wish. Each Bento box comes with your choice of 3 veggie sides along with pickled radish. There some snacks available too. Overall, the food looks and tastes great and the service is courteous. Most of the food is in heated serving pans. A few items (like fish fillet) are kept in the back to preserve their crispness. 1. Chicken Leg Bento ($15.95). 2. Red Braised Pork Bento ($15.95). 3. Fried Fish Fillet Bento ($15.95). 4. Taiwanese Sausage Share Box ($8.99). 5. Popcorn Chicken Snack ($8.99). It is $1.00 with any Bento box during grand opening day. The Chicken Leg is a thigh + leg and chopped into a few pieces when pit into the bento box. The Red Braised Pork was perfectly cooked showing the various delicious layers. The Fish Fillet breading has plum powder giving it some sweetness. I love that sweetness. The two snacks we had were plentiful and worth the $8.99 price. For the veggie sides (spread over our 3 bento boxes), we had fried tofu, eggplant, broccoli, tomato scrambled egg, green beans, cabbage with fungus, potato strips. Every side was delicious. The green beans and tofu had a hint of spice. The "C" of C-Block stands for Clinton St, the intersection on Bloor St they are on. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible but there is no door-open button. There are no customer washrooms. There is free and paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2023-013

The restaurant is very small, with a small ledge near the window with three seats and a bench on the side to wait. Best to plan to take out. They specialize in Taiwan style Bento boxes, where you get a tray containing different items of your choice. They also have a selection of snacks. I got the red braised pork Bento with some tofu, eggs and tomato, and cauliflower. Flavours were excellent. Overall the sides were somewhat spicy as well which I didn't expect, but it wasn't crazy spicy like a previous Katsuya challenge and I enjoyed it. The popcorn chicken is also very nice. It's chopped up salted chicken 鹽酥雞 so a lot different from the stuff you might get at Popeye's. Unfortunately no picture cause I finished it on the subway

For my trip today I got the Taro Milk Tea - the drink was well blended and very tasty. There is a nice drink to tapioca ratio and you won't feel like you inhaled an entire container of tapica nor will you feel like you drank an entire tub of juice. The shop is run by an older couple who are super friendly and are great to talk to, a good break from the commercial bubble tea shops which give a less "homey" feeling. As the other reviews mention the shop takes Credit, Cash, and Debit. I have run out of change sometimes and the owners sometimes take off the excess for me. Small gesture but very nice of them! Overall I definitely recommend this place if you want to satisfy your sweet tooth but also get your bubble tea from a place that will give you a more personal touch!
