Chon Saan Palace — Restaurant in Belize City

24/3/25 Tldr : Hair in food Wait staff confronted us with attitude Ps. Roast pork burger was disappointing

I entered the restaurant with my family, and everyone had ordered different dishes so we could swap and share. The experience was going well until my neice discovered a hair in the food she was already chewing. She immediately became visibly upset and tearful. She hurried to the bathroom and regurgitated the food there. After asking what happened and determining the hair was not hers, we calmly and quietly waved over the serving staff and told them what had happened. Unfortunately, we were greeted with an uncooperative attitude and side eyes from the staff. They then outright said, "The child must not have enjoyed her food, and therefore we didn't want to pay, so we made up the story about the hair."

Almost like we had to call??🤷‍♂️seemed strange but I’m sure just a coincidence, maybe not. I will say that the delivery not so good but the fried rice was the bomb and their fried chicken was damn good to. The steak was tender and juicy but it was off, like the sweet and sour chicken. It was just something I was not used to and I didn’t care for. I’m picky though. But we enjoyed the rice and fried chicken and would eat...

A popular place to dine when shopping in Belize City. I love their dumpling platter and hot and sour soup. Also enjoyed the lobster burger when in season.

Not Many people know, but Chon Saan will fly food from Belize City to Ambergris Caye. In case you get a Chinese food craving you need to satisfy.

I did get slightly stale fortune cookies once but I bought the box knowing that might be the case cause I wanted the Fortune fun to share with friends.

In case you are wondering Lobster Season in Belize starts June 14th at midnight and ends February 14 at Midnight. There are a small few restaurants who have permission to make it available off season. However this is not...
