| - Let's get this out first -- this is a dumpy looking place in the basement of a building in a strip mall with poorly designed driving/parking route. Hey, for people who are familiar with "traditional" China Towns in NYC, Boston, SF, or even Toronto/Vancouver/Calgary before recent waves of immigrants and what their taste buds and money brought to our food scene, this place is not that much worse.
Very Fair Restaurant has good-tasting food, quality and fresh ingredients, and very fair prices.
Giant lobsters (5 lbs or more) stir fried with "Maggi Sauce" seasoning is the STAR dish for us, can't resist ordering it every time we go. The lobster meat is so juicy and sweet, its natural flavour accentuated but not overpowered by a light touch of maggi sauce. Who wants to have frozen lobster tails after that?! -- Very fair price, too. If you order a minimum of $25 of something else, the lobster costs only $9.99 per pound.
There are other good dishes, too. Of course, fair-priced. Set dinner comes with free soup (Cantonese style homemade soup that takes hours and hours to make) and free dessert. My US friends chuckle that they actually give you real desserts not just fortune cookies or a piece of orange.
