So stops along the way are never good. When the soup arrived as you can see in the picture there was hardly ANY broth. I recieved one package of Saracha and one package of hoisin sauce no utensils it was cold and it wasn't even a soup. I paid $48.90 I am a regular at this place and I couldn't have been more disappointed unfortunately!! My advice is NEVER order take out from here go into the actual store. SMH

It is understandable with the increasing food prices. It wouldn't deter us from coming here :) $15-$16 a bowl is still cheaper than some pho places. I noticed that they changed their interior a bit. They put in more big round tables. As usual, we ordered their special pho that comes with everything! The brisket is braised and it's so good. The broth has nice deep flavor. The portion size is decent. I couldn't finished it myself. If they start serving bahnmi as well, that would be more than perfect.

I came here to try their lasagna but wrong day for that, they are serving something else on this day, unfortunately that special of the day is only up to 2;30 and I came almost 3 pm. Aside from lasagna I came for the famous milkshake. I ordered ham, cheese, tomato and lettuce sandwich plus the soup of the day bacon chowder, I wanted to try the tuna salad but again its done so the server ended up giving a quinoa salad for free. Busy place considering its covid-19 era so only 4 person inside the store at a time. Few seating inside, the café is very relaxing and for some reason I felt peace and very calm. The only noise you can hear inside were the sounds of returned bottle glasses for milk while people putting them on cases.... Interesting displays and interior designs, since its family owned I can tell that most of the displays in here were things they had when they were kids, nice stuffs very interesting .Those memorabilias made me smile, that feeling a heart truly appreciated. The sandwhich I had was okay,the soup was very good as well, hot and creamy, the quinoa salad is just okay for me its just ordinadry but not bad. Heres come something funny, I placed an order and clearly I wanted a strawberry milkshake, but what was serve was plain milkshake, I believed this was an honest mistake so I did not say anything, it was good though but maybe I ill be best if its strawberry. Wifi is free as well as parking and lots of them no worries. Service is warm and very friendly...kudos guys.... Not bad for group,family and kids. B careful if you are using a GPS coming here, wrong street and turn ....I don't know why?....... I will still come back here and bring some friends.. hope this time I will get the right milkshake.

The elderly couple was a bit abrasive and rough around the edges back then, but more so now. The behavior and mannerisms of this couple combined is very comparable to Seinfeld's 'Soup Nazi'. I politely asked the old woman (others refer to her as toothless) if I may take a picture of the menu and she practically had a heart attack. She screamed - "If you take a picture, I will kick you out of this place!". The old man also had a sarcastic tone in his voice when I asked about mayo in the chicken salad sandwich. The mushroom soup was pretty good and the chicken salad filling was OK. The house baked bread was the only thing that really made this whole experience bearable. It appears as though that these two seniors are set in their miserable, toxic and irritating ways and are too proud to make a change for the better.

Amazing fresh bowls and delicious drinks!…read more We visited Dragon Bowl in Burnaby and absolutely loved it. You can build your own custom bowl and the ingredients are super fresh, colourful, and full of flavour. Everything was prepared beautifully and the portions are great. We also tried their bubble tea and the egg waffle on the side, which was such a fun and tasty combo. The drinks were refreshing and the waffle was perfectly light and crispy. The service was friendly, the place is clean, and the whole experience feels casual, easy, and delicious. Such a great spot for anyone who loves customizable bowls and bubble tea. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

Bowls start at only $12.88 and you choose a protein, base, sauce and 3 sides. I tried shrimp with thick noodles, dragon sauce and 3 veggie sides.

They also have bubble tea! I tried mango milk tea with pearls and lychee black tea with coconut jelly. Both drinks were refreshing with a fruity taste and I liked that they weren't too sweet.

They don't take reservations but there's a QR code by the front entrance to register for the waiting list and the list shows on a TV screen. Arrived at 6:30pm on a Friday and the place was packed. For a table for 2, we ended up waiting approximately 15 minutes for a table and also saw several pick up orders. Menu is not extensive and as it was both our visits, we decided to order the Kkanpunggi Combo for $56 that includes Black Bean Noodle, Chili Seafood Noodle, and Spicy Sweet and Sour Deep Fried Chicken. The chicken arrived first and it was an enormous portion! Chicken was fresh, lightly battered, had good flavour that wasn't overly coated in sauce, and was served with nice tasty taro chips. Black bean noodles was also a good sized and delicious. The chili seafood noodles was also a very generous portion - we ordered it medium spicy but I personally thought it was mild though flavourful. Service was a bit slow, even though we pressed the button a few times. However, tasty food with big portions and reasonable prices is hard to beat these days! $56 for 3 dishes and more than enough leftovers, would definitely return and recommend.

There are a good variety of pork dishes but I ordered a steak. It was bacon wrapped and within the steak was oozing cheese. The steak was seasoned perfectly. It was accompanied by a tomato based sauce that complimented the slightly salty steak very well. It also came with a basket of fried potatoes and a side of cucumbers and tomatoes dipped slightly in vinegar and salt. The service was attentive and on point giving recommendations based on my taste pallette. The dining area was small, maybe enough for a total of 30 people dining max at one time. The ambiance was very quiet, enough to talk and converse without having to raise your voice. Lots of wall art depicting either famous people or places from Serbia. I noticed several Nikola Tesla pictures. A destination to totally visit and wisk you away to the food joys of Serbia. Side note: in the men's bathroom, the walls are plastered with praise to Novak Djokavic (one of tennis legends) and Nikola Jokic (a current legend in basketball).

This is my first time trying Haidilao, I was so impressed with the service. Food was fresh, we opted for unlimited meat, we had beef & lamb slices. There is an extra charge of the sauce bar, about $3 plus dollars. That includes dessert & their yummy congee as part of the sauce bar. There's even a show presentation on a popular Chinese mythology figure, The Monkey God. A thoroughly enjoyable meal. Service is prompt & good, our server Elvis was attentive & most helpful. Trying to reorder meat on their iPad was a bit challenging, there's too many options. We had Elvis helping us with the reordering. You are offered ice cream at the end of your meal too. Decor was cute, clean & inviting Fresh food, great service, paid parking in the mall parking.

The staff checks in on you and just basically gives you what you need, before you even ask for it. And I like how the place is set up, so cozy and provides just the right amount of privacy for groups. Even the washrooms are superb. Wait may be a bit long if you don't have a reservation (we made a reservation but came 30 minutes early and wanted to get in earlier), but they offer free snacks and drinks at the waiting area.

My favourite of the ones I've picked had a salted egg yolk filling. I went with the collagen bone broth which was flavorful but not heavy which is perfect for me. Servers brought out ice cream when our group had finished eating. The flavor that day was chocolate. It was a nice light dessert to finish off our meal. Overall would return again!

Had to wait for a few minutes to get the noodle I wanted, as it took them a while to get replenished. They didn't direct us to the right seats and ended up sitting at table with 4 seats. We flagged the staff and they had to move around other patrons. Food was good as usual. Broth was flavourful. Unfortunately the ice cream machine broke when visited, it was definitely a big bummer as it's something we would love to finish with. We did get some popsicle, but it's definitely not the same.
