The shop is a cute little space that's tucked in a quiet neighbourhood and can be busy at times. The pasta is very al dente, and has just the right flavours, not too overpowering or heavy at all. Only thing I would nitpick would be the service, coming from a hospitality field before, I would look for 2 things - attentive with the water refill (especially on a hot day) and just asking once how the food was, this allows the customer to let you know how it is and to provide feedback if any to the staff. Unfortunately, this visit, both were neglected and I noticed that the workers were just standing around. Other than just dropping off the food since you order on their order sheet now, I don't see what other service is provided.

They were all very tasty. The portion sizes were good and the prices were comparable to other Chinese style cafes. The service was friendly as well. There is pay parking on Fraser and some side streets unless you wanna walk a little further, then you can find some free parking. Overall it was a very pleasant dining experience. If I'm in the area I'll be back for sure.......

Been awhile since I came here. First two things we ordered was their daikon cakes and coconut rice…read morecakes because we remembered how good it was when we came here 2 years ago. And I'm happy to say they were as good as I remembered it to be!! The coconut rice cakes are soooo crispy on the outside but literally melt in your mouth. We also tried their crispy fish fillet, no idea what the "fish fillet" were made of, but whatever it was I LOVED IT! It felt like the same texture as actual crispy fish fillets. It was flavoured so well and came with a side of rice and salad. For drinks, we tried their lemon leaf Collins which had gin. It had a strong flavour of lemon leaf but it was very well balanced with the gin. It was also sweet which balanced the citrus flavour pretty nicely. Their space is pretty cozy, I don't think they can accommodate large groups but a great place for date night. They don't take reservations so we just walked in at 7pm on a Saturday and got a spot but it did get crowded around 8pm so might be better to call before going during rush hours. I'll definitely be back again!

As the weather gets warmer, I am craving something fresh and refreshing. After browsing the menu, I…read morewas convinced the mango salad was exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, the menu doesn't have side dishes, so I ended up ordering the lemongrass vermicelli along with a guava juice instead. The guava juice was a bit of a surprise--not quite the freshly made tropical drink I had imagined. It turned out to be the same bottled guava juice you can easily find at the grocery store, just served in a glass and at restaurant prices. Then my lemongrass vermicelli arrived, and the server warned me to be careful because it was very hot. That definitely caught me off guard! When I think of vermicelli bowls, I picture cool noodles, crisp vegetables, fragrant herbs, and a refreshing meal perfect for a sunny day. This version was served piping hot, making it feel more comforting than refreshing. That said, the dish was still packed with flavour. The fragrant lemongrass aroma filled the bowl, the vegetables added plenty of texture, and the savoury components came together nicely. It just wasn't the light, cooling meal I had originally set my heart on when I walked in, dreaming about mango salad on a warm day.

I've been wanting to check out this restaurant for a while now and was finally able to. There is…read morefree parking in the little plaza, but it's quite limited. The restaurant's menu was vietnamese fusion. They offer happy hour from 3pm to 6pm. We ordered Sweet Chili Heat Chicken Wings, Banh Xeo Ebi Tempura, Aburi Crispy Rice, Umami Bombs, Creamchi Udon, Mussel Motoyaki, Curry Bean Curd on vermicelli, and Bo Luc Lac to share amongst 3 people. The Wings were super flavorful, but the first couple of bites were a touch too spicy for me. I couldn't taste the Banh Xeo batter flavor in the tempera, but still found it enjoyable. The crispy rice was good, but I think it would have been better if the protein was either salmon or tuna instead of imitation crab. The Umami Bombs were really good. I enjoyed the acidic flavors. The mussel Motoyaki was full of buttery goodness and flavor. I was surprised by how much I liked the Curry Bean Curd on vermicelli. One thing that didn't make sense to our table was that the spring roll had meat in it. This dish seemed to be catered towards vegetarian, but instead of including a vegetarian spring roll, they defaulted to a meat one. We found the pairing to be quite odd. That being said the spring roll was delicious. The Bo Luc Lac was also tasty and flavorful. Customer service was good and attentive. Prices ranged from reasonable to a bit pricey. 4.5 stars

New Filipino gig in lower mainland, small place approximately houses 15 heads the whole eatery…read more Mostly Filipino customers lining up. I went here with a friend to try, well not bad actually, the carrying product is Lechong Cebu,a rosted pork. There are only few dishes in the menu,the server claimed they are coming soon. they also do catering service thats what the waitor told us. we wish to have a bulalo its a beef soup but sold out that day, so since we were already here and our cravings for this day is Filipino cuisine we ordered other availble dishes. First one is the pork sisig, it was good,we both dont eat liver so we asked the server to exclude it.oh how i missed home(Philippines) on first bite of the sisig,it was delish,the flavor of the spices,the lemon and the egg while it was smoking hot on a sizzling plate,very good. we ordered appetizer includes 2 Pork bbq, 2 feep fried spring rolls(lumpiang shanghai),and 3 pcs of chicken wings well i would say they were ordinary taste,we also got the beef caldereta,hmmmmm....another ordinary taste.plus we had the garlic rice and hot water with lemon. I am not sure if the dishes were pre-cooked. We havent try the carrying dish which is the lechon Cebu,for sure if we will come back thats the one we will going to order. Very small place,crews are bi-lingual and very friendly,you know friendliness is one of the best trait of Filipinos. They also sell some chicken skin chicharon and ube pandesal. Pricing is just okay,you pay for what you wil get. Theres no TV, but theres music playing while we were there.Wash room is available.(Needs a lot of make over and improvement with the interior design.) If am not mistaken this place is a bubble tea gig before,As per friends news it was sold. Wifi now is all over the city so i dont think that would be an issue. Parking is metered one unless you wish to park in some residential area and you will just do some waking...sometimes serious walking because it can be far. Most clients that day came for pick up orders..a lot of them so i feel that this place has a huge potential to bloom. Noise level is average and nothing i can say on the interior design because theres nothing at all, like i said it"s pretty new place. Good for small group and kids friendly. Im wishing the owner the best of luck...i hope they should incorporate more Filipino dishes in their menu. Accept credit and debit card and cash as well

Chikara produces food from a commissionary kitchen where you can order on DoorDash, or call in. If…read moreyou go to pickup, their phone number is in the commissionary kitchen's door and when you call up, they will give you the code to get in and pickup your food from the table just inside. You literally see no one. So far, my favorite is their Chirashi Bowl ($23.98) with their fresh sashimi and decent size portions. You can also Choose-Your-Favorite Combo ($19.99) that gives you a choice of Bowl (not the Chirashi though) and choice of 8pc Roll. I like their Unagi Crab Roll, its like a California Roll with Unagi on top. Their entrees that comes with the combos have tasted very bland to me though. I've tried the Scallop Risotto which did not have a rich/fragrant flavor I like in my risottos so I found this super bland. And recently I tried their Beef Rib Bowl which looked more like a Beef Tongue Bowl (there was no bone and it was super tender) and again, was on the underseasoned side. But it WAS super filling so their portion sizes again are good.

Our group was big enough that we ordered two sets, one with lobster and one with crab. The dishes were excellent for the price. Service was really good.

The restaurant is clean and spacious plus very conveniently located. The sauce bar had fruit and plum juice, which was a nice bonus. I got the chicken soup base and it was pretty good. I think it could have been a bit more flavourful. Also, food took a while, and I noticed that they had chopped up my veggies before cooking. While it wasn't a ridiculously long wait, it did take a while despite there not being many customers. I do feel like the service and ambiance was lacking a bit. While I was there a bit later in the evening around 8pm, one of the workers started vacuuming, and from reviews it seems like they do free ice cream but I was never offered or made aware. I'm not sure I would come back since there are better options in Richmond. Other fast food malatang spots have better service, consistency, and speed. Not to mention this spot is actually more expensive than Big Way at $19.90/lb!

This place is tugged in the busy foodie plaza on Captan Way. It's open and spacious with lots of…read moreseats, unless Bigway's space. Iykyk. The place is much like Bigway, you can get a pot and build your own hotpot to cook, or you can do their pre-set happy meal, which is what we did. We both ordered the beef set, with different type of broth. There were 12 different kind of broth to choose from. One of us ordered the original beef bone broth, which was very tasty. I ordered the spicy broth mild, which was what the cashier suggested. Guess what, their spicy broth is on a whole different level compare to other places. The mild level of spicy can be rated extra spicy in other places! It was so spicy that I could barely feel my tongue. I had a pallet for spicy food, but this one was a bit too much. They also forgot my noodles that was suppose to come with the set, and after I showed them, they made some and brought it out in a separate pot with some bone broth. I was very happy to pour all the extra bone broth to my spicy pot to dilute the spiciness? And thankful I listened to the server's recommendation to go for the mild. Over all, this place is very clean and organized. Parking has always been an issue for this plaza, so be prepared for the several loop around. It's not as busy as other individual pot restaurants, but it's a decent one. I'll definitely go back if I'm in the neighborhood. And I will learn my lesson not to order any spicy broth, unless I want my mouth to be on fire again!

If you're craving momos and spicy Chinese food, Hakka Momo Corner in Surrey, BC is definitely worth…read morea visit. I've been here twice, and both times the food has been flavorful and satisfying. Their momos are juicy and packed with flavor, and the noodles bring just the right amount of spice. The place recently made some changes, so the taste may have slightly shifted, but it's still a solid spot to satisfy those Indo-Chinese cravings. The ambience is simple and fuss-free, focusing more on the food. I highly recommend the veg chop suey--it's absolutely delicious and a personal favorite!

We ordered the chilli garlic fried rice and chili chicken and liked both of them a lot! They both had a slight kick to them which we really enjoyed. The only negative that I experienced was that they brought our chili garlic noodles first, which we let them know was not what we ordered, so we had to wait for the fried rice. Then we got the fried rice but we waited for about 10 min for a chili chicken to arrive only to realize they forgot to put that order in. I think this would have been fine if the place was busy or we had ordered many items. But we only ordered 4 items out of which 2 of them were wrong or forgotten so I think the service could be more attentive! The service was very friendly otherwise. We enjoyed the food and are looking forward to returning and trying other items.
