I have spent a lot of time here with friends enjoying copious amounts of piping hot pho with noodles, spring rolls, salad rolls, and, at times, grilled meats. I have always found it to be fresh, and the servers smiling and very thankful for any tips. Go here if you would like some of that comfort food - hot soup and noodles, iced coffee, spring rolls and all for amazing value.

I was excited to have this place open literally right at my doorstep. Such potential! But so very sad in the end.

The menu is confusing. But that is not the end of the world. Eventually, we ordered. The servers are slow and obviously disinterested (but who can blame them...more on that later...). When we paid, I was shocked at the more than $30 total for what is essentially mall-court food.

The food....aside from the kung-pow chicken and noodles which my hubby ate once for lunch which was OK....the food is terrible. Overcooked rice at an Asian restaurant? Butter chicken was too salty. Everything else was too saucy, too sweet, over cooked. The appies are just frozen from a box, I am sure, and not worth the price.

The owner...very strange man who came to our table and talked...and talked...and talked for over 20 minutes. One-way conversation, very uncomfortable, as he talked about stuff you shouldn't to people you have just met, nevermind who are paying to eat in your restaurant. He seemed to like to tell the staff off in front of customers too. No wonder the food and service is lacklustre.

In short, save your time and money. Like I said, the chicken and noodle was alright, but I don't know if that was a one-off. If you must eat here? Ask for half the sauce and skip the awkward conversation by having take-out or avoiding eye-contact...

I was so happy to discover this place, as it is the same as the one I used to go to back in the early 2000s with my friends - it mysteriously disappeard to be replaced with McPho (aka Pho Hoa). This is my date place when I spend time with my wife, aka my BFF. It's our place, but I also share it with my husband from time to time. I think the beef broth is excellent, and the salad rolls are fresh. I also like the spring rolls, but don't get them as often as I would like (*sigh*). The sandwiches are also a treat, and really, even if they weren't that great, who can complain at $3?

I wasn't very impressed with this place the first time I tried it, but after giving it one more go, I am happy to say I have changed my mind.

I call the food a 4/5 - it's not that it is the best sushi ever...but it is fresh, and the owner is very nice, very genuine and I am happy to give him my business. Like those have said before, it is always busy with locals and regulars who know a good thing. I am glad to see this place has moved past the days when it was only visited by hgh schoolers looking for bubble tea!

FYI, I have also ordered their party trays - GREAT value and they take a lot of pride in presentation and quality. The maki tray is superb, and you can't go wrong for $20. I get one on every holiday (I have done it the last Christmas and Easter) as my appy contribution for family dinners - always a big hit! Just call the catering line a day in advance and tell him what time you want it!

We ate here at the insistance of my mother-in-law. "Oh it's so good, and the chef cooks for Olympic athletes". After we left I felt bad because she was so excited for us to try it yet we were clearly unimpressed...needless to say, the experience was not worth the 2.5 hours I had to work to pay for this crappy meal.

We were seated at the weird table by the window that narrowed out to the left. Sit at the table and you will get what I mean. And it was bloody cold. If you're gonna charge that much, double pane the windows and use some caulking. If you're so into veggie and organic, how about being powersmart too??

The server was nice enough, although she acted like a deer caught in the headlights if we asked for anything - as if asking then to reheat cold oatmeal was sacrilidge. Yes, my father-in-law's oatmeal was cold and...pink? If you're gonna put ruhbarb in the oatmeal, how about putting it on the menu? What if I don't like it???

Next up, the spelt pancakes. MIL said they were to die for and recommended I order them. Hubby and I thought they tasted like cardboard. Spelt, bananas, maple syrup, lots of promise... but so sad...though I must compliment them on the presentation of the fruit...it was very pretty...

My husband had the $8 basic breakfast. Cold eggs, stale toast, and cold mushy pest potatoes. He called it tasteless. I call it highway robbery. That's all.

MIL had Mo's Biscuit. Mo might be disappointed to be associated with it. She called it "disappointing" and it came with the same mushy cold potatoes.

Best we can figure is since it was around Christmas, the big boss was out somewhere and therefore food suffered. I think even if is did taste a bit better, is was SO NOT WORTH the money. Breakfast should be hot, fresh, plentiful. The Christmas day brunch feast my husband and I cooked up for $11 worth of ingredients beats this nightmare easily...

We will never go back. Do yourself a favour and go to Cabin 12 across the street.

My husband and I started ordering here after walking by and picking up a menu one day. We immediately liked the man behind the counter, and were impressed by the claims everything there was homemade and fresh. We tried the food, and found it to be all the things he claimed. Thin crust, thick crust, who cares?? It was tasty and good value for the money, so we will take it! My husband likes the capricosa, I love the veggie pizza and the artichoke salad. Wanting to try the pasta next and all the freshly-made sauces.

Went here with my husband for a nice dinner after enjoying the Lonsdale location a few weeks ago.

The food was very good. We started with the split pea soup and seafood chowder. Both were delicious, but I must say the chicken corn chowder is still by far the best. We will definately return to try the others! We then had the mac and cheese (good, but could have used some more flavour, maybe they should try some sharp cheddar in it?) and a chicken club with spinach salad - yum!! We finished with the special chocolate fondue - divine.

The service was ok. The guy seemed pretty busy, but it seemed to me as if he were a bit new? As a former waitress, I recognised that he didn't have his timing figured out. But that's ok, I have been there too. One thing that was a bit annoying was when we asked what was in the salad - while I LOVE goat cheese, hubby HATES it. He didn't tell us the cheese was in it, ergo hubby didn't eat much of his salad. Staff should always inform customers of all ingredients, especially something like goat cheese which can turn many people off!

Overall, a good night. Bill came to $75 for two people - two alcoholic drinks each, two starters, two mains, and the fondue. Not bad!! Try this place out, you will like it!!

I was drawn to this place by the large selection of omlettes. I was very happy with what i found. The food was great, service was solid (not too much, not too little) and the ambiance was relaxed. It wasn't overly busy for a Sunday brunch service (10:00am) but if more people knew about it, I bet it would be busier. Beats most other places I have been too while costing much less. Try it!

I live very close to this place, and it always satisfies my craving for BBQ pork fried rice or lettuce wrap. It's not amazing or outsatnding, but it does what I need it to do. This is especially handy for those late-night nosh sessions. The service is usually ok, and I have gotten to know, and have a soft-spot for, these sometimes hard-faced, always hard-working girls. Most work 6 nights a week, late into the night.

Came in here after a fight with the Mister for some comfort. Found it in the miso soup and pork cutlet with egg on rice (name escapes me at the moment). Staff were very frendly and kept my tea cup filled. I didn't try the sushi on this visit, but will do at some point. Went home fuller and in a better mood.. :)
