Came on a Tuesday night and it was pretty busy. We were told to sit at a table in the back by one…read morehost and then another host made us get up and move to another table because she thought we sat ourselves. They dropped off water and didn't come back for about 15mins. After taking our order the server comes back and tells us the grill is closed and couldn't serve us any of the BBQ items. This wouldn't have been an issue but the fact that she took 15mins to even come check on us is what made it a horrible experience. If she checked in on us sooner, we might have been able to order BBQ. Overall the spicy beef noodle soup was amazing, food is very good but the service was not. I'll definitely come back but just not going to expect the greatest service.

Had large Soybean paste noodle(about $12), which was very flavourful. The hand pulled noodles were exactly as expected, a bit chewy with some body which really goes well with the flavour of the dish. The vegetables were fresh and arranged nicely (would have liked some green onion as well). The ground beef had a lot of flavour to go with the dry noodles to balance it out (a bit salty overall but that's ok). Portion was good compared to similar noodle places. Had a bit of a wait for food and there wasn't water available (tank ran out, so had to wait a bit) but understandable since it's not a typical restaurant and more of a stall with seating. They also have 50% off on side dishes after 9pm which are worth a try, especially the shredded spicy and sweet potato!

So I placed an online order again of Desi noodles and along thought to try new dish of Chinese bhel. But I was really disappointed when I opened it. Chinese Bhel :- Much less quantity in comparison to charges. Complete absence of crisy noodles. It looked more like a choupsey than chinese bhel. Appearance also was no nearby similar as in photos. Desi noodles: - It was enough in quantity. Though it was completely different from what I ordered previously and it tasted more like Hakka than desi noodles. No similarity to photo or what I ordered before. I would advise to not place online order for these two dishes. It was all waste of money with spoiled mood after eating. Attaching photos below.

It was a snowy night on our way back to Toronto, and my girlfriend was craving Indian food, so we…read moredecided to stop in Waterloo for dinner. When we walked in, the restaurant wasn't very busy, but the space felt uncomfortably cold. My partner was also put off by the number of fly traps hanging throughout the dining area--it immediately gave the place an unwelcoming, unhygienic feel. We ordered sweet chilli paneer and ginger beef. While the knitted pouches holding the cutlery were meant to be cute, they were clearly not clean--there were visible sauce stains on them, which was pretty gross. The plates had similar discoloration from leftover residue, and the water tasted unfiltered and unpleasant, so we barely drank it out of concern. As for the food, it was mediocre at best. The ginger beef was essentially stir-fried beef in a chilli sauce dominated by garlic, ginger, chilli, and MSG. It had a bit of wok hei, but it completely lacked the sweet, balanced profile that good ginger beef should have. Compared to versions I've had elsewhere (like at Federick's), this was extremely underwhelming. My partner didn't enjoy her paneer either--it was spicy, but otherwise flat and one-dimensional. Overall, the dishes tasted oddly watery, bland, and garlicky despite the heat. The dessert was fine, though the portion was small. I could tell the gulab jamun was microwaved but it tasted fine. The price was reasonable--our bill came to just under $50 CAD. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place unless they address the serious hygiene issues and make major improvements to their recipes.

I heard about this Hakka Nation location in Waterloo through Instagram. This eatery's account…read morefollowed mine. I have flagged coming here ever since. I find that whatever businesses that are trendy to university students in Waterloo tends to come over to the greater Toronto area in due time. It's nice that Waterloo has a Hakka restaurant. I came here after doing a lot of damage at a liquidation place in Wellesley. I needed a late lunch and finally got to check it out yesterday. Hakka Nation is located in a plaza with a ton of diverse food varieties. This plaza is next door to the University of Waterloo. I had no problem finding a parking spot fairly close to the eatery. I parked and walked in. I got here at 4 pm on a Saturday. It was packed. It was a good sign. A man behind the counter immediately greeted me. I asked if there was room for me. He nodded and got his female colleague to seat me at a clean, available table. What I instantly noticed was that this place does not have air conditioning. Instead, three oscillating fans were on full blast. i sat near one, so I felt cool. You scan a QR code on the table to bring up the menu. I got a large bottle of cold water to start, which was refreshing and much needed! I ordered the following items: - Chilli chicken with gravy - Diet Pepsi I asked whether the chilli chicken with gravy came with steamed rice. It did. My can of pop came out first. It was cold. I loved it. My chilli chicken with gravy arrived with a generous amount of rice. I was so happy because I was hungry. This chilli chicken had green bell peppers. I normally don't care for a ton of veggies in chilli chicken, but they weren't offensive. I will say that the combination of eating a spicy dish with hot temperature-wise chicken is deadly! The spice level was excellent with the generous minced garlic. The gravy was excellent with the steamed rice. The chicken morsels were tender, juicy, and yummy. So good! I love the chilli chicken with rice at Wok of Asia. This place has my heart with this version. It was nice when everyone left and I was the only customer left at 5 pm. It embraced it. I went up to the counter to pay for my meal. I used a credit card. I tipped and tapped. Done! I let the man know how much I loved my meal. He was happy to hear it. I used the washroom before I left. There's one washroom for women, one for men, and one gender-neutral one. i used the women's washroom. It was impeccably clean. What a fantastic Hakka joint in Waterloo! I'm so envious that students can eat well here without breaking the bank. My meal with a Diet Pepsi was well under $20 after taxes. I look forward to returning to try more items on the menu. (247)
