Dainty Tea House & Cafe(Nepo Branch) — Restaurant in Angeles

Went here for lunch today, August 3, 2025, and I will never return again. First, the waiting time was horrible. It's understandable that the place would be full since it was lunchtime, but we weren't accommodated well. They just left us to scoot ourselves into a corner. They didn’t even bother to offer our elderly companion a proper seat or a glass of water. Then, the food was either too oily or too bland.

But the most important part is we found an INSECT in our utensils. It looked like a small cockroach to me, but don’t quote me on that, I’m not sure what kind of insect it was. But seriously, an INSECT on the utensils?? The staff didn’t even bother to apologize. They didn’t react at all. It seemed like it was a normal...

The food was good. However, we ordered the Dainty Pansit Canton which had bad mushrooms. We sent it back but we were told by the waitress that according to the kitchen it's supposed to taste that way. For a guy who loves mushrooms, I can attest that shiitake mushrooms are not supposed to be sour. In the end, the waitress offered to change our order but the pansit never came back until we were about to leave. We have to take the food away in a doggie bag instead of enjoying it there. The food here used to be good but it greatly declined. I can't imagine the nerves of the guy who sent us the dish back and told us that it's supposed to...

There are flies inside the restaurant. They land everywhere including sa food. They don't follow instructions. I dined in and asked for my takeouts prepared/cooked an hour later to retain yung init and freshness once I'm done for my parents, but was served minutes after I just started eating. Frustrating! Food's terrible for a 280 pesos combo special meal, the only thing that's recently cooked is the fried rice. The chicken and sepu egg's cold af. Soup's terrible, it's like eating wet cornstarch tbh....
