Yunshang Rice Noodle(UBC)云尚米线 — Restaurant in Electoral Area A

I ordered over delivery app once and dined in once. Both times the food was pretty mediocre. Even though the price was not bad, the low quality ingredients we got in our noodle soup was pretty disappointing. I've so far tried 4 of their noodles: original rice noodle soup, duck blood with chilli sauce rice noodle, rice noodle soup with fresh sliced tilapia and Chinese sauerkraut and rice noodle soup with curry coconut sauce. None of them were particularly that good. The original and the coconut curry were quite bland so it was like a bland bowl of soup filled with minimal, basic toppings including (but not limited to) just 1 tiny fish tofu, a few pieces of pork that tasted kinda strange and some lettuce (???). The fresh sliced tilapia were also clearly not very fresh and the sauerkraut tasted very basic (definitely had better elsewhere). I did get full from the meals and the price is not bad but tastes wise, I am not a fan. I also feel better quality ingredients can be used. If you like noodles, I think Kokoro (literally next door) is a much better option - at least I personally think Kokoro tastes better.

Edit: less than 2 hours after I left this review, a bunch of 5 star ratings appeared out of no where all at the same time. For almost all of the reviewers except for 1, their review for this place is their only review ever. Before today, this place has only had like 5-6 reviews despite having been open for months. But today is a special day as a bunch of 5 star reviews all miraculously popped up at the same time. Really subtle on 5 star...

Would give 0 stars for bad service if I’m allowed to. Not only did they mess up both me and my girlfriend’s orders completely (they gave us spicy soup base as opposed to tomato). They have the audacity to ask for “mandatory” tips. They claimed that the “credit card machine would not work if we do not give tips”. The entitled attitude and audacity to lie to your customers after bad service is baffling to me. We ended up paying tips at the end as we did not want to get into an argument after being in the restaurant for one and half hours. I suggest future customers to challenge their lies and attitude if time allows.

I appreciate the fact that you respond to negative reviews. That being said. I have seen many 1 star reviews that describe very similar experiences from months ago. I can’t help but wonder if the owners are actually taking actions. As well as if the active responses to negative reviews just desperate attempts to save your...

First time there but it’s really ridiculous only one waitress was working during lunch hour, what an owner! Although there was only one waitress, her service is excellent, she was running like chicken head to deliver food, clearing tables, assisting customers to pay, packing take away, all by herself. Why we could see so much because we waited the food for long as everyone so in the shop, it was full house and we had waited for the food for over 30 mins, the food is so so. Everyone is urging the waitress for food and she could still keep her smile and helped us to check for our orders.

Honestly speaking, although the service of the waitress was good. If it is a norm for this noodle shop to have only one staff working during lunch. It’s better not to go there especially during lunch as you may miss your class!

Worst owner I’ve ever seen! Making money by...
