Hakka Legend Asian Cuisine

One of the most unexpected experience at this location today. We have been going to this location for over a decade and always enjoyed the food and customer service. Today was after about five years that we got the chance to be in that area and decided to have supper there. Ordered vegetable fried rice, Manchurian chicken and chicken corn soup. The rice was mushy. What took us aback was that they were charging more than what the general tax would have been in the name of GRATUITY. Means generally there is a sales tax for 13% but since 14 December 2024 there should be no sales taxes on food and groceries till 14 February 2025 by law. So this location charged about 17% of my total bill and added it as Gratuity. Why on earth am I “forced” to pay 16-17% extra of my food price? And then there was option for tip too. The tip option, ok I understand, but WHY FORCED GRATUITY?!?? Upon asking the counter, the guy said that it is done in all restaurants. It was clearly a lie as we dine out quite often. We did not argue any further as we did not want to any stress. But I would advise everyone dining at this location to check their bill carefully as the total charges are more than what you would order because of added gratuity price which I think is unethical and illegal. I am never going to this location again.

Let's keep it 💯! You're coming here for the food - and if that's the case don't worry about the overall rating. While the service is ok and the environment is average - the food is still great 🔥 We had the: ✅ house special fried rice ✅ chilli chicken ✅ crispy ginger beef Everything was good as core hakka food needs. The beef was a bit chewy on some pieces, but overall flavourful. The prices are affordable and the food was good so you should definitely give it a try, enjoy!

This is one of my most go to place for Indio-Chinese style cuisine. Really great service and food is super in terms of taste and value for money. The quality and quantity is also something that’s come along with reasonable pricing. Loved the place, food and atmosphere here. Great for family gatherings and dinner nights. Easily accessible locations across Greater Toronto Area.

I love the food but lately I don't know why I'm being charged a mandatory 20-25% tip. We were just 2 people. I understand if it was a large party and they wanted to charge mandatory gratuity. I believe tipping should be a choice. I generally always tip when I like the service but being forced to do it is not pleasant. On top of that when I was handed the card machine, it also prompted me to add a tip on what was already included. I love the food and hate to say this but I won't be going there anymore simply because of this mandatory tip.

This small and cozy hakka style Indo-Chinese restaurant serves authentic and delicious cuisine. Their large portions, a wide variety in food manu, reasonable prices, and excellent and quick service are added advantage. The restaurant is nicely decorated and has ample seating arrangement. They also have ample parking spaces.

2023 October 3.5★ The food itself can be a hit or miss depending on what is ordered. $14.95 Lollipop Chicken 8 pieces Not bad. $13.95 Fish Pakora Pretty decent. Not the best out there, but was good. $16.95 Spicy Deep Fried Mixed Seafood (Dry) This was a little underwhelming. It wasn't as expected. The seafood was more or less a mix bag of stuff you'd find in the freezer isle. It was also too salty. $13.95 Guyanese Chicken on Egg Fried Rice This was pretty good. The rice was flavorful and the chicken was tender. $13.95 House Special noodles The noodles were decent as well. Not overly salty and yet has a Hakka style flavor. Free parking.

My first time having Hakka food was here! The food is pretty greasy but the flavour and spice is there. Portions were average, but considering how heavy it was, size was not bad. We got 4 dishes for 4 people, and had leftovers. Servers were very fast and didn't really pay us much attention. A good place to dine casually with family and friends! Washrooms are downstairs near the entrance.
