This is the best Hakka place in Toronto. We been going there since they open. All the Staff became familiar. Service are quick. Tables are clean. Food quality and quantity no one can beat. I highly recommend this place.

Syeda Adiba Nuzhat From Google 4

Food was good, we order combo meal for 3 person whoever 5 people can easily eat it. Chicken pakora were not very good, however i liked the soup. The restaurant was very very clean, around 50-60 people sitting area. Not very crowded, we went on a week day for dinner. The server lady was okay, they serve food quite fast. Ordered tea, but they were out. Overall experience is good, and I recommend this place for moderate price and good food.

The best value you can get for your money. We ate like Kings for less than $14 each. Spicy noodles and rice were out of this world. And the soups were perfect. The service was friendly and quick. Everything hit the spot. But watch out for those chiles! Can't wait to come back again.

A second chance that did not disappoint. A friend invited me for lunch and I was pleasantly surprised by the lunch specials. We had chilli chicken dry and ginger beef with steamed rice. Really liked the ginger beef. The sauce was 'sweet' with a balanced amount of ginger. The chilli chicken was ok. It was supposed to be dry but had a little to much sauce from the stir fry of seasonings and onions.

The chilli chicken didn’t spoil my mood. The quantity is great and the fact this dish comes with rice. What else we need! Chilli chicken was perfectly stir fried and you can smell the wok. And this means that the cook really heated the wok before adding the onions and other seasoning. Also the chicken was crispy. The Singapore rice noodles were great as well. It is moist and the seasoning was well mixed with the noodles. Loved the food and will definitely recommend to others try it out. Important the quantity is great. Keep it up!

A great Hakka Chinese Restaurent. Meat is Halal and the taste is authentic chinese. The service and behaviour of the staff at the restaurent was very friendly.

KC Chow From Google 5

This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and the staff and owners are also extremely friendly. They were great at offering recommendations for new customers and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. The owner took the time to offer suggestions as I just couldn't decide on what dishes to order, and explained what's in each dish so I knew what my options were. Menu is extensive (which is great because I like variety and options based on what I'm craving), food is really good, full of flavour and just the right amount of spice, especially the chilli chicken! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to enjoy some quality Hakka food. Definitely one of the best Hakka restaurants I've been to and for their prices it’s 100% worth it.
