    Chicken wings (garlic flavour)
    Samantha W.

    Had dinner here today since we were in the area. Interior is nicely renovated/decorated. Looks very clean. What we ordered: Garlic chicken wings, Lemongrass chicken on rice, Lg Laksa, and Pad Thai w/ assorted vegetables instead of egg and prawns. The two other people I was with said the chicken wings were okay, nothing special. Lemongrass chicken on rice: My cousin said it was really good and just wished the portion size was a little bigger. Laksa: Very flavourful soup with rich coconut flavour. Great seasoning, vermicelli was cooked right. Was a yummy dish. Probably the best Laksa *in Kelowna*. (Tried Laksa at a few other places and they were not Laksa at all.) Pad Thai: When I ordered the pad Thai I asked for assorted veggies instead of egg and prawns and the server said that the kitchen doesn't like doing that because they don't think it tastes good and asked me if I still wanted it. I said yes so she went ahead and put my order through. I've had Vegetable only pad Thai at other restaurants and I always enjoy it - to each their own. The pad Thai at this restaurant was good, I personally would've liked to have more veggies in it but otherwise the overall flavour was okay. However when we got our bill, I noticed we were charged an extra $2.50 on the pad Thai because it was rung in as an extra veggie charge with notes that says no egg, no prawns. I've never at any other Thai restaurant been charged extra for having vegetables in place of animal foods(eggs & prawns). I do however understand that every restaurant has their own right to do things differently BUT it would've been nice if the extra charge were communicated when I was ordering. For example: When we were ordering our server asked us if we were okay with cilantro. It's the same courtesy to say "It's an extra charge for vegetables instead of prawns & egg is that okay?".

    This is one of our favourite restaurants to visit. Fresh ingredients and good proportion for price. The best Laksa in town!

    I only order the delicious creamy laksa soup (Saturday lunch & dinner or Sunday dinner) for to go. I didn't like the restaurant environment!

    Vietnamese and Japanese. Quality is excellent. Food is fresh and tasty. Service is genuine and…read morefriendly. Ambiance is totally unworthy of the great food. This place deserves a Gordon Ramsey interior design makeover! Meantime - it's really 4-Star food!

    Pho lovers and wagyu beef lovers, listen up! You will get both in a hearty warm bowl here. The…read morebroth was also from wagyu beef. I gotta say that the broth was the most phenomenal! The rich and clear broth had multiple layers of flavours with some underlying sweetness. You would want to continue to drink it. As I didn't feel thirsty due to MSG, I would recommend it more. The flavour was a solid 5-star for this small size of Pho House Special. The value was a 3-star though. Overall is a 3.5-star. For 20 bucks I got one thin piece of rare wagyu beef, one thin piece of beef flank, 3 pieces of one third of beef ball, and 4 to 5 very thin pieces of tripe. The amount of pho noodles were adequate for a size small. The texture of the pho was a tad less al dente than my liking, but it was still good, not too soft. At the end, I thought something was missing, but I didn't pay too much of an attention. A few hours later, I checked the menu again. Tendon it is! There was zero tendon in my bowl. Perhaps the chef forgot about it during a standard lunch hour. The dining room was about 70% full at the time. I would go again to try other dishes if I happen to be in the area again on a business trip. They serve sushi as well. Their appetizers looked good, too. It's an interesting Vietnamese/Japanese restaurant. The servers were nice. The service was fast. Parking was super easy in the outdoor mall parking lot.
