I got addicted to chicken rice during my visit to Singapore, so when I heard there was a chicken rice shop opening in Toronto, I obviously had to convince my friends to come along with me to try this new place.
Taking Lucky Red's location, the shop has actually maintained a lot of the decor (e.g. tables, main door) that was used by Lucky Red.
I came here on a Saturday evening around 7pm and the place wasn't too busy, my group was able to get a table quite quickly. Although the size of the restaurant is quite small like many other places in Chinatown.
We were not disappointed with the food. They had a lucky 7 combo which doubled the amount of chicken and also had a marinated egg on the side, which seemed like pretty good value for $21. I have to echo the other reviews and say that their portions are relatively small. I wasn't particularly hungry, but I still went with the regular size and the serving was just enough for me. However, if you're feeling hungry, I would recommend their lucky 7 combo and maybe an appetizer for good measure. The tempura broccoli is a good app to share!
Service was great, our server was very attentive. It's definitely one of the few places in Chinatown that actually cares about providing quality service. The only issue I had was that they didn't accept Amex.
Give this place a try if you're feeling nostalgic for some good chicken rice or if you're missing Patois and want to get your fix.
