Marigold Restaurant — Restaurant in Winnipeg

My first time at Marigold’s was an extremely disappointing experience. Firstly, the consommé soup had good flavour but was unbearably salty that I could not even sip at it without being overwhelmed by the salinity. It could be diluted as much as 1:1; that’s how salty it was. I ordered the Combo M (fried rice, chow mien, sweet and sour shrimp and chicken, egg roll, BBQ pork). The fried rice had an unpleasant fishy, gamey taste from the first bite. It wasn’t the type of fishy flavour that comes from fish sauce or other seasonings. It was the fishy flavour that arises from some improperly prepared meat (if you are familiar with that “gamey” taste). The sweet and sour chicken and shrimp were covered in a thick, stodgy paste-like layer of batter. The BBQ pork was fridge cold and incredibly dry. The server relayed from the chef that it was supposed to be served cold. I’ve never experienced BBQ pork like that, but nevertheless, the flavour was also gamey and bland at best. The chow mien and the egg roll were nothing special, but were the only things on the combo platter worth eating.

The service was fine and the restaurant was clean and orderly. It was just the food that was the problem. I love Chinese cuisine and want to support local businesses as much as possible. However, unless the food at Marigold’s drastically changes, I don’t see myself returning or...

The server was kind, however the kitchen seemed upset about us making an order, they close at 11 and we came at 10:02. We ordered the combination plates and the pork ribs were cold and everything tasted mediocre. What upset us was the chow mein we were served in the combination plates. It was this sticky, bitter, icky & slimy salad with these breadsticks on top. When we asked what this was we were told this was the chow mein and that the breadsticks were the noodles?? I wouldn’t reccomend coming to this marigold, I’d recommend the inkster one. Also odd how they had casino slots in...
