After a long day at work I wanted to treat myself to a really nice dinner and saw this place across…read morefrom my hotel and I said I've got to go check it out. To be honest, it was a little hard to figure out where the restaurant was cuz there are three different restaurants in the building, so I went through the front door and then found the entrance. I decided to sit at a table rather than at the bar, and I'm glad I did. My waitress, Sadia was awesome! He was attentive, made great suggestions. And was very very gracious. I started off with fried calamari, which was a little bit underdone, but still very tasty. Tasty. Next up was a side Caesar salad, which was very good and on point, on to the main course which was the steak frittes which was cooked perfectly. I also had dessert, which was the lemon tart and that was the perfect capper for a meal. Bottom line? This was one of the most delightful meals I have had, perfectly paced, well cooked, and served with a smile. I will definitely be going back anytime. I am definitely coming back to this restaurant when I'm in the area!

Chose the restaurant for a holiday party for the team of 35 people. The reservation experience was…read moregreat with good menu choices and good communication from the restaurant. We had a private dining area with Michelle, as our Host with Mary & Lauren in her team. She made sure all our needs were met, provided exceptional service and was attentive at all times . Everyone in the group enjoyed the evening with delicious food, tasty appetizers, great wine and delectable desserts. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, several dining areas and a central bar with an inviting atmosphere.All dishes including Chicken, Salmon and prime rib were delicious as the Main course and the chocolate brownie and crème brûlée were decadent. The soup and salads were on point.

Finding street parking was a bit hard on a Friday night. Club next door, does not help. Patrons…read morefrom the club were allowed to use the washroom while we were there. Service is good, the staff knew if noodles did have eggs in them (they don't we were told). The interior clean. The Hot and Sour Soup was OK. Nothing that stood out, if I were to say less spicy and less tangy than we were expecting. The Medium Size was also smaller than we expected. The Manchurian Pakoras were way mushy and did not stood up to the gravy. A good sign is that they are still bit crispy. The Noodles, fairly good. Good amount of veggies however the overall quantity of the noodles were probably half of we get elsewhere. It would be nice if they could amp the flavour a bit and quantity as well.

Just ok! The Schezuan rice had flavor but not as much as…read moreother Hakka places. The garlic chicken was ok but not as flavorful as others I've had, positives, it was hot and lots of sauce! The Shanghai noodles were just ok too. The place does need a little attention, the wall where the booths were had scratches on it so you could see the old paint so the look was just ok again. Now the service was slow! We were the only ones in there and it was slow, when 3 other tables arrived wow even slower. They need to pay more attention to the customers. The table behind us and I had to constantly call over the server. The fried banana was not good, the dough wasn't cooked but also had no flavour. Not sure if I would go back again!

Had earmarked this place as we surprisingly found a Hakka restaurant in Guelph. The best way to try…read moreis with the lunch special for $10 + taxes you get a dish from a long list, steamed rice, a soup and two mini spring rolls. Not a bad price Inside is quite cozy and we got a nice booth. The service is quick and servers seemed to wearing street clothes and not a "uniform" We had a Paneer Chilli, Veg Manchurian, Spicy Stir Vegetable (the last two being Vegan) with steamed rice and egg free vegan fried rice. The Paneer Chilli a bit on the spicy side the way it needs to be. The Veg Manchurian, very good pakoras with still crispy on the outside and soft inside. The sauce needs a bit of a work - a little more seasoning and a bit of spiciness. The Stir Veggies was spicy just the way it was requested. Fantastic sauce and seasoning. The downer? Most the veggies were perhaps were frozen kind. So instead of a crunch or a bite had a strange texture to it. The Veggie Hot N Sour Soup was OK. It needed a lot more spice and seasoning as well. The Spring Roll same freshly fried, but being made from frozen it had a flavour that was not pleasing.

This was one of the most disappointing dining experiences we've had in a long time…read more Our server seemed miserable from the moment we sat down. After bringing our food, she disappeared completely and never once checked on us. We ran out of water and spent about 15 minutes trying to find someone. When we finally got another server's attention, we asked for more water and a few additional side dishes since the portions were so small. He only brought one small dish and never returned. Throughout our meal, not a single staff member asked how everything was or if we needed anything. When we left, the person at the front didn't even acknowledge us or say goodbye. What was even more noticeable was that the other tables around us weren't receiving much attention either, so it didn't appear to be an isolated incident. We work in the service industry ourselves and are usually very generous tippers because we understand how demanding the job can be. Great service goes a long way, but unfortunately this restaurant completely missed the mark. There are plenty of excellent Korean restaurants with friendlier service, more reasonable prices, and much more generous side dishes. Sadly, this won't be a place we'll return to.

The perk was ordering 10 mins ahead and they saved our order which got our food earlier, we were very hungry and appreciated the advance notice option. The ambiance is fun and buzzing with people. Must try!

For the four of us we ordered a Brisket plate with the rice dun up, the ribs with Mac and cheese & a sandwich lunch combo with fries and a pop. The bark on the brisket was sooo flavourful, it was juicy and still had some fat on it which kept it moist. The ribs were fantastic as well, we thought the rice was our favourite and the Mac and cheese was great too! Fries were tasty and crispy, honestly everything was fantastic. I wish it was priced a little lower but I've paid more for food that wasn't this good. Highly recommend, we can't wait to go back!
