Not nearly as bad as the other reviews make it sound, but you are getting what you pay for here. This is a no frills Chinese fast food joint in the Metro Square food court. You can tell from the taped over menu that the prices have been slowly increasing over the years - but they're still quite reasonable. The two of us were able to get a good meal for less than $20. I do think they only accept cash, consistent with the other restaurants in the food court as well.
We ordered one fried noodle dish ($8.85) and wonton & beef brisket with flat noodle in soup ($7.99). They do charge tax so it ended up being $19 flat. Both dishes also came with a beverage, and I think soy milk is the only cold one without an additional upcharge so we both ordered that. The fried noodles were a great portion - the taste was pretty average. The main flavour is salt! For the soup noodles, it was actually pretty good - they gave 3 large pork and shrimp wontons, and a couple pieces of beef which were tasty and well marinated. I will say that the noodles themselves lacked any real flavour, but such is the case with most rice noodles. I'd definitely get it again for the price.
Overall it's simple and fast, don't expect anything...
Read moreI have been going to metro square for 25? Years. New fountain has prob been there for 15? This isn't fine dining. My rating is based on value. I'm not sure where I can get a better fast food beef with bitter melon and black bean sauce on rice for 10$.. I was there with my wife and daughter so I also ordered a Singapore Style and a Cantonese chow main. The Singapore was excellent and the Cantonese was excellent although I like more cuttlefish/squid tube in mine. I will say that up to a couple years ago they still used plates for eat in.. and that was superior because they could fry the noodle base for the Cantonese better (crsiper) because the wok is round and so is the plate. I was a touch disappointed that they has to break up the noodles to fit in the square take out container everything comes in now. However, flavour still good. My bitter Mellon was 100%....
Read moreWe ordered two dishes, the tenderloin beef with ketchup and hoi sin sauce and the fried pork chop with garlic. The taste for both dishes were actually not bad. What so bad is their low quality ingredients. For the beef, there were only like 6 weirdly cut, small slices of beef with a whole container of sauce! As for the pork chop, the dish looked alright at first, but it was poor quality pork chop. There was a lot of fat attached to the meat. I know it was fried pork chop! They still should have trimmed some of the fat from pork chop before the cooking. Most pieces are extremely boney as well. I am aware this is a food court place, not a michelin star restaurant! The quality of the food still shouldn't be this bad. This restaurant is by far my WORST food court experience ever..... Hands down! I would not go back to this place! Major thumbs...
