Eazie Den Haag Herengracht | Asian Wok - Poké bowl - Bites and Drinks — Restaurant in The Hague

Worse wok I ever had... Please save yourself (and your wallet) and just make it at home or go to any of the authentic places that are within walking distances of this establishment.

So, first the good parts, the place looks clean and beautiful, and the ingredients look fresh, food came fast, they offer take away containers.

Thats it, now the bad ones.... we took 3 dishes, nr1 "a create your own" one, 2nr 2 a "stufi saver" and nr 3 a kids meal "kids sweet sour". We did not order any drinks because when we asked if anything healthier than sodas was available they said no. Noticed later when I took pictures that they should offer orange juice and shakes too, but the machines looked too clean to be in use/functional.

Dish nr1: If you are curious how can garlic taste bland, try the "garlicious" sauce here. It did taste/smell like garlic, but thats it, very boring and bland. The udon noodles were overcooked and when I asked for soy sauce (after getting rudely corrected by the cashier that its "soya" not "soy sauce"🤦‍♀️) they told me its 40cents for a small sachet. I doubted that will be enough to salvage the dish and refused to pay extra for soy sauce when you are eating IN at an "asian" restaurant.

Dish nr2: It was rated 1 out of 3 peppers. Now, I love spicy, but I'm pregnant, so I PURPOSELY chose a lower spicy rating, nope, it was overly spicy. The sauce was also not flavorful and the only thing you could taste was the spiciness (definitely a 3/3 spicy lvl not as advertised).

Dish nr3: So sweet the kid might as well be eating a bag of sugar. Not sure how the adult version tastes like, but this one was very sweet you cant taste the "sour" at all nor the veggies, everything is overpowered by sugar taste.

We ended up taking all of them back home as takeaway, after trying to eat at least a little bit (hungry, pregnant, angry at wasting money for this, makes you feel a bit "responsible" to at least try to eat it/make it edible).

Suggestion:

•Add soy sauce and chopsticks to tables, lower the spicy level and add it to the tables too.

•If the difference between soy sauce and soya sauce is actually intended and you mean to say that the establishment uses the japanese version (soya) which is traditionally sweeter than the chinese one (soy sauce), then consider switching to soy sauce. Everything is already too sweet.

•Simplify the kid dishes, or use only 25% of the sauces for them.

•Let the taste of your fresh products show and invest in better quality sauces too. Else its a waste.

•Hire people who like working there, and preferably have some knowledge about asian cuisine.

This was my first time trying the wok at this place, I remember having one of their sandwiches (might have been wraps back then?) years ago and not being impressed and never went again, but thought I would give it another chance. As someone who worked in an authentic asian wok place, traveled and a big fan of asian food, this chain is not worth its popularity. Maybe it was just this one establishment who had it wrong, but I'm definitely not risking it and trying...

Note - they do not accept mastercard payment I had a delicious vegan friendly dish, There were several sfv options to choose from. Of course there was also a huge range of rice/noodles dishes with meat too. The food was fresh and healthy. I ordered a large and it was HUGE! I actually took more than half home after asking for a takeaway box to save wasting it! Very reasonable price at under €8. This is a quick and easy restaurant, no frills but good food and friendly service....

Be aware they sell food that shouldn't even be called food. When them zero carb noodles look the exact same after it has gone through your digestive system it's not food! It's disgusting, misleading, way to expensive and it made me feel sick. Also charing €0,15 for cart board container that doesn't even keep the food warm and isn't filled to the top neither closed properly is outrageous. It's definitely an slEazie way to earn money! Delivery guy was friendly, that's the...
