| - When you first walk in to the restaurant, it'll almost seem like it's closed down because it's an empty space with stairs leading up to the second floor. Once you reach the top, you realize you're at the right place - there's usually a good number of people dining here, and for good reason - decent food for a cheap price.
Their portions are massive. I ordered individual soup orders and really each bowl could've easily been enough for two people. Also got the chicken pakora (best chicken pakora I've had) and fried noodles, and it barely looked like it was touched after my friend and I were stuffed. The amount of food we ordered was enough for 4 people and yet we only paid $18 per person. Crazy.
They advertise that they have the best hot and sour soup and as a fan of hot and sour soup I actually agree. I've even come here to just have the soup. It's filled with lots of stuff like shrimp, BBQ pork, and bell peppers, so that you're bound to have chunks of stuff with each sip. I personally prefer chunky soup so this hot and sour soup definitely hits the spot.
But aside from their chicken pakora, fried rice, and hot and sour soup I usually order, everything else I've gotten from them were just average. The Hakka fried noodles I ordered today wasn't bad, but it was just bland. Their menu is fairly large though, so I'm not even close to exhausting through their entire menu - it's quite possible that I'll find another hit somewhere in there. Until then, I'm still sticking to the hot and sour soup and the chicken pakora.
