Upon entering the restaurant, you see nice dim lighting and interesting pieces on the walls. It had kind of a romantic cozy atmosphere but doesn't require fancy clothing. Our waiter was very helpful and informative. He explained a little bit about the dishes we were ordering to ensure we got what we really wanted. He even asked if we wanted them to take down the spiciness haha! He got me really worried! Had me thinking lava will be coming out of every orifice! We said to keep it as is.\n\nThe food came out nice and fresh and didn't take too long. We ordered the chicken 88, crispy beef, and chicken fried rice. We didn't realize the dishes already came with white rice but go big or go home right? It wasn't as spicy as I anticipated nor did it overpower the flavour of the dish. The chicken 88 was so delicious! I'm so glad the portions were quite large because having it for lunch at work the next day was awesome. The chicken was full of flavour and moist, not dry or chewy. The crispy beef, even with a sauce on it, it held up its crunchy factor. My mouth is watering from just thinking about it! This will definitely be a restaurant I'll visit again if I felt like some good, quick, hakka food."^^ . . "1"^^ . "1"^^ . "4"^^ . . "0"^^ . .
