I came here after seeing a ROTD and I'm glad I did.
Staff: When we came in no one was around. Waited a few moments and thought we'd just take a seat for now. Eventually a lady emerged from the back with food for another table and scurried back to grab more. At that moment we realized there was one server. When she noticed us after a while she apologized for the delay and took our order. She was very friendly and constantly upheld a cheery disposition even though she had so much to cover. Although it was slow in some aspects, the food came quickly. Overall the service was alright.
Ambience: There isn't much to the restaurant. A few booths, a couple of bigger tables in the centre. There isn't a dine-in menu, but that doesn't matter too much. It is loud though even though there were only two other tables. 3 more tables came in later and it got even louder, but nothing deafening. It's a very plain place with plain furnishings.
Food: Spicy! Like really spicy. I'm sure I could've asked beforehand but it was spicier than I've had in a long time. It was then pointed out by my date that Hakka foods are often really spicy. Flavours were pretty good. We had the Hot and Sour Soup (more hot than sour), the Pad Thai (sweet and less peanutty but I enjoyed that), and the beef noodle soup (tasty, spicy and tender beef). It was all very satisfying.
I think I'll come back again soon (and maybe ask if there's a less spicy option). One thing to note is if you pay in cash and it's $25+ you can get a 10% discount. Also I love how you can see the restaurant sign used to say "Chef's Lin" but they realized their typo and took out the "'s".
