Customer Review Summary
Chow mein is the dish reviewers raise most, and opinion splits on it. The mushroom version is called delicious by one diner and enjoyable but bland by another, and the chicken version is also called delicious. The beef chow mein drew complaints of small portions, chewy beef and a burnt taste. Beyond that, the complaints are substantial. Several reviewers describe burnt or soggy food, naming crispy chilli beef as a dry, rock hard block, sweet and sour chicken balls with thick batter that stayed soggy in the centre, and egg fried rice as bland and dry. The sweet and sour sauce is repeatedly compared to water, and one reviewer found the HOHO rice stodgy with too much gloopy gravy. One reviewer reports being served raw chicken balls, and another found the pancake roll too salty. Longtime customers, including one of over eight years, praise friendly staff and a set meal for two as delicious and satisfying. One reviewer describes the front desk worker staying calm and polite while the phone rang nonstop and customers kept walking in to order.

“There is good reason why the food here is cheap. We had HOHO rice, this was stodgy and Did NOT resemble rice, far too much gloopy gravy and over over done meat. Had to bin it Crispy rock hard chilli beef which was dry, the sauce resembled water (I think it was just the water from the ample amount of carrots that were added. Really it should of been called soggy carrot with a slight side of rock hard chilli beef, The chicken and water chestnut with bamboo shoots tasted chemically with a bitter harsh after taste. We did order other food but nothing pleasant to say. Even the prawn crackers were stale and chewy”

“One of the many times I have eaten from here and every time it is perfect. Although it was extremely busy with the phone nonstop ringing and customers walking in to order, the staff member at the front desk who was handling everything was completely calm and so polite. The food was amazing as always. I highly recommend.”
