We ordered the Butter Chicken and Chicken Ticca Masala with rice and garlic naan. Both dishes were delicious! The Butter Chicken sauce was rich and buttery. You could taste the tandoori in the chicken in the Ticca Masala, and the sauce had a rich flavor with onions, cilantro, and ginger. The rice was cooked perfectly. The garlic naan was huge and came out piping hot. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with just enough of a garlic taste. There is ample parking and the restaurant is very clean. The staff was friendly and very engaging. We will be back the next time we are in PEI!

In Charlottetown for a night and we were looking for some good options for a vegetarian and a vegan…read moreand much to our surprise we found this little gem. I was not expecting a vegetarian or a vegan friendly place in Maritimes and definitely not in PEI. Were seated quickly and the place wasn't busy, but tables were filled in which was as a good indicator. Disappointed that green tea is not offered complimentary. Ordered a steamed dumplings to start with and Udon Noodles with mixed veggies, Mushrooms with Bok Choy, Spicy Soy Nuggets with mixed veggies. The dumpling were freshly made and good. The filling needed some more seasonings and were bit smaller than the ones we have added. The Chilli Sauce requested did the trick. The Steamed Rice provided with the two dishes was also smaller than anticipated and glad that we ordered the Noodles dish. After traveling for days and not having proper food, this food was a welcome relief. The udon noodles was perfect in every way except I think one of the mushroom or wood ears had a stronger flavour which over powered the entire dish. It was almost bitter. Not overly, but it still took away all the rest of the flavours. Mushrooms with Bok Choy was perfect. The flavours and crispness of Bok Choy was 5/5*. The Soy Nuggets with mixed veggies was amazing as well. The Soy nuggets small and veggie still crisp. Could have used a bit more spice though All in all a good spot. What was most amazing to me was that in the land of sea food that there was this place. Also as we were in PEI, it would have been nice if at least one dish was made with PEI potatoes and some Soy Sea Food dishes that are available

The lighting was dim and loud conversations could be heard throughout the restaurant. Their menu changes every two weeks. It was Burger Lover when we had visited. We ordered the pizza roll and chicken and waffle. The pizza rolls were fun to eat and definitely tasted like pizza. It was too bad that there were only 3 rolls though. The chicken and waffle was different from what we usually have. This was half a waffle with a few pieces of fried chicken on top and a lot of fries on the side. The fries were so tasty but it was just too much for us to finish. The first bite of the chicken was a surprise as it was very salty. The sauce on top helped a bit but the saltiness was just overwhelming.

The breakfast burrito was the highlight of all the meals ordered on this two week vacation! And the connecting coffee shop (Timothy's World Coffee) had great coffee and a delicious cinnamon roll to round out the meal on the go. What I loved about the burrito is it was made with fresh prepared vegetables (they were just finishing up being roasted when we got there), beans, scrambled eggs and tasty sauces/salsa and it was real, whole food, healthy and filling. The few staff working were super nice and accommodating, encouraging us to walk thru to the coffee shop to get some coffee and to sit if we wanted, although they do have indoor seating. The setting felt like a mini-indoor market, which it actually was. You can buy your organic produce and fresh prepared meals in containers and be set for the next several days.

Ribs and Mac and cheese, fall off the bone meat and coleslaw that was the best on the island!

As you can see from other reviews, there's some confusion about the location. This one is in a…read morestrip mall off University Ave. You've probably had a lot of egg rolls at Thai and Chinese restaurants in your lifetime, and I guarantee that theirs will be the worst you've ever had. They don't even LOOK like egg rolls - soft, brown rectangular pouches. Seemed clearly manufactured in a factory elsewhere, and warmed up here. But don't take my word for it - stop in and order an egg roll - invest a few bucks for the experience of the worst egg roll you've ever had. On the front window was a big permanent sign, about their "famous Kung Pao chicken" with "homemade sauce". So we ordered that, and a couple of other dishes. I never found enough sauce to report on - I guess it was sprinkled on the top. But here was the problem: each main dish consisted of a layer of the main item, on top of a whole lot of plain white rice. About 1/4 of the ordered item and 3/4 plain white rice. So for the terrible egg rolls and paying for what was largely simply plain white rice, I can't give more than one star for them. And lest you think I'm a negative person who writes critical reviews, I've probably written about 25 restaurant reviews on Yelp over the past 25 years, and if you look them up, you'll find they're mostly 4 and 5 star reviews. I think this is the first time I've given 1 star.

We strolled down through the beautiful gardens to the restaurant perched on the riverbanks. The restaurant does not optimize for volume or turnover and we had a 45 minute wait. We enjoyed the adjoining shop and their selection of jams and spread. The wait was worth it! The room is a bright large room overlooking the river. Handmade quilts hang from the ceiling. We started with nachos, that had the right blend of cheese and toppings. Unfortunately there were no side plates brought, causing us to eat like animals from a common trough. A slight mishap with a spilled glass of water interrupted our otherwise pleasant appetizer. The server's attention was less than prompt causing us to get extra napkins from directly behind the counter. Still, we soldiered on and prepared for the main feast. The seafood chowder was one of the better ones all trip. Fresh and flavourful pieces in a cream broth, served with a fresh side biscuit. The real opportunity is to highlight the delicious jams and spreads from the shop which would add some much needed flavour to the biscuits. Other meals included kids pasta, kids jam sandwich, a club sandwich, fish cakes and a Caesar salad. All were promptly devoured. A great location with fresh food and pleasant service. Worth the wait!
