My friend recommended this place to try. We came here on Saturday for lunch and was somewhat…read moresurprised how quiet the place was. On the weekend, it doesn't open until 1pm. This restaurant serves Chinese Indian Food. It was pretty good. We got the Fish Pakora, Chicken Manchurian style Chow Mein, House Style Lamb and Naan Roti. The House Style lamb was the biggest disappointment. It was quite salty and kind of gamy. The Naan Roti wasn't good either. I really liked the Fish Pakora, it was super tasty. The chow mein was good as well. The flavor was unique and very tasty. The restaurant is located in a strip mall where there are plenty of parking. Prices are quite reasonable.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE, THE OWNER IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTINGAND VERY RUDE…read more During the pandemic, through encouragement of our local community, two times a week, we support immediately local to walnut grove, non chain businesses for dinner EMW used to be a regular for our household. our kids love their bubble teas and their noodles. If you look on our Uber eats app, they are probably the most ordered on our three accounts. Before we have had issues with inconsistency but never anything to really prevent us from ordering again. Until today. It wasn't even the inconsistency and lack of blatant concern for the special instructions. IT WAS THE OWNERS DISGUSTING BEHAVIOUR that made me leave this review and will PERMANENTLY remove EMW from my rotation. I ordered my usual today. 3 satee meals - one extra spicy and one chow mein regular. Now as I said before we order ALLLLLL the time so we are very aware of their menu and how their food should taste... might I also add we are from the caribbean, so we arent afraid of spicy food. I shared my kids dinner as I normally would, and my one year old started screaming and hollering gasping for air crying HOT hot hot.. I grabbed her and my husband checked the box and said no this is hers. Well they didnt make ONE spicy ... they made ALL THREE extra spicy.. and asian spice is of a different level of heat. even now shes still drinking water and crying, 30 mins after. I simply called them saying there was an error on the order and i was wondering how i could switch out the food, expecting that i would just drive and swap them out. The lady on the phone did not really understand what i was saying so she put a gentleman on the phone who introduces himself as the cook and starts to immediately go off and insist that he did nothing wrong. I said to him we eat there all the time .. the regular satee stylie is fine for us.. my husband is the one who eats the extra spicy without blinking an eye. he continues to say he did nothing wrong and i said to him this is ridiculous i have nothing to feed my kids now, i cant even eat it. THIS MAN LAUGHED AFTER ME and continued to say that he did nothing wrong and when i tried to answer he hung up the phone one me. I called back He answered the phone i told him he was very rude to hang up the phone and that i need to speak to the manager. He said he was the owner and cook, and that hes not speaking to me further. I told him id be making a formal complaint to UBER eats about this becuase now i have to spend more money to get my kids dinner. He simply couldve swapped the food out. I am pretty sure he cooked all the satee styles together, or did not switch pots in between ( they were the exact same order just one with a different level of spice) THERE ARE OTHER LOCAL RESTAURANTS MORE WORTHY OF YOUR DOLLAR. IN A UNPRECEDENTED TIME LIKE THIS PLEASE SUPPORT THOSE WHO CARE, HAVE MANNERS AND ACTUALLY APPRECIATE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE HELPING TO KEEP THEIR DOORS OPEN. I WILL ABSOLUTELY NEVER SPEND ANOTHER DOLLAR HERE IN MY LIFE. i DO NOT DESERVE TO BE YELLED AT AND MOCKED OVER AN ERROR ON A ORDER. THE OWNER IS ABSOLUTELY UNDESERVING OF THE KINDNESS OF THIS COMMUNITY!

I ordered the Cantonese Special Chow Mein (crispy noodles) and the portion was so generous. It was full of bok choy, barbecue pork, chicken, and shrimp. I still couldn't believe the amount of food I got for $11.60, which is several dollars cheaper than other places for the same dish. Their menu is extensive and the food is ready quickly and is piping hot. I will most definitely be back to try out their other dishes. Note: they only do takeout or delivery, no dine in

I recommend checking & opening the containers before leaving the restaurant, however. I asked for vegetables to be cooked until very soft for my elderly mother's weak teeth. They were not cooked soft. Perhaps communication error. Nice family-run place. I am used to Chinese-American cooking, which this is not. It seems authentic Chinese. A mandarin-speaking couple was dining in while I was there. Prices were higher than what I was used to for Chinese takeout. But I am new to the area and this is an upscale neighborhood. If you have a yen for Chinese food, give it a try!

The number of items are certainly more than the equally cheaper indian buffets in vancouver and burnaby. Manchow soup - no idea what that meant. It looked like the chicken manchurian but soup form. Green mango salad was just standard. Lightly dressed and tiny pieces of mango. It was just sitting in a container and not kept cold. Spring roll seemed hand made and not store bought which is a plug Crispy chili potatoes are fries coated with some seasoning. Flavor is not bad but they need to be fried better so much of them were soggy. Orange chicken tastewise is good. Again they need to fry it better. Some were crispy and some were soggy. Chicken manchurian was a dish I have never tasted before. I still don't know and can't describe what the flavor was. Fish hot garlic was not bad. I liked the flavor but again I wasn't sure what kind of flavor it was. Chili paneer had the same flavor as the chicken manchurian. Fried rice was fried well. Fried noodle was just ok. They came by and asked if we wanted naan. When it came it glistened with oil and had loads of garlic. Upon tasting it, it shockingly didn't have much garlic flavor. The texture of the naan was weird. Much thinner than I'm used to and not as chewy. Loads of parking as this is located in an outside mall. The decorations inside were super cool but very random.

We are big fans of traditional fare, but the Block is a place we are so glad we experienced and will certainly return utilizing the knowledge we garnered during our first experience. A big thank you to for helping us through picking one price fixe January exploration of your local restaurants and filling it with other ala carte additions. As we often do we ordered far too much food, wanting to explore everything off a menu that is far reaching. Not sure if our additions worked with the price fixe menu, but we sure enjoyed checking everything out. The interior is interesting with the addition of structural steel in the space to keep this heritage building (I think) standing tall for a few generations. We sure hope it's still here for a long while and will most likely come again the next time we are in Victoria. That is saying a lot as there are a wide range of restaurants in the neighbourhood, but you do want to check the Block out!

We knew we wanted spring rolls and wontons, so we ordered that when brought water. We decided on the seven flavor beef for the meal to split. The two apps came out quickly. The wontons were SO GOOD.

The beef is tender and flavorful with the crispy lettuce underneath and delicious spices. It went well with the rice, which was perfectly cooked average white rice. We had enough beef left to make one more meal with our own rice. We will 100% be back and are so looking forward to the beef, wontons, and perhaps something new!
