| - During my four years as a high school student at Woburn Collegiate Institute down the road, this was a restaurant we frequented. Looking back, I have no idea why.
Food isnt even mediocre. It's actually pretty gross. The rice is stale and dry, the chicken/beef/ whatever meat you get feels like it was made yesterday, and the sauce is pretty disgusting.
The atmosphere is akin to the restaurant featured in the Godfather, where Michael Corleone shot those two guys. It feels grim and dark, and pretty ghetto. I legitimately wouldn't be surprised if someone got shot here.
The hygiene of the place is great, if you're a director looking for a scene of a disgusting dump. Unmopped floors, smelly toilets, flies all over.
Once, during lunchtime hours, when 12-15 students lined up for food, I saw a group of 3 students walk in and call the store owner some provocative names. The store owner then took a broom and chased them out, while yelling some not so kind words. That fiasco lasted over 10 minutes, and I didn't get my food in time for class that day.
The one redeeming quality is the lunch special - 5$ for a boxed lunch + drink. It tastes like crap but you'll be full and you'll only have paid 5$.
If anything, come to Woburn Garden for the experience, not for the food.
