Our waitress was fantastic and so on top of everything we needed. The booth was comfortable and there is a fire place inside that's so cozy. The special fish and chips was excellent and the sauce with it is absolutely perfect. The chips were nice and crisp. The seafood pasta dish was great and the chowder was flavorful and perfect for the chilly afternoon. Everything was delicious

We stopped by here for dinner on our way back from Squamish. It was a random thing and we were…read morelucky to get a table on a Saturday night. The place was quite busy. My friends had the fish and chips and grilled salmon entree. I had the seafood cioppino. They enjoyed their food but wished the coleslaw was a much bigger portion for the fish and chips. The seafood cioppino and it was one of the best I had. Plenty of seafood in it. The broth was very flavorful and tasty. It was so good. I will order this again. The servers were friendly and checked on us often. Good place for a nice meal here.

I guess the summary of this restaurant is that nothing stood out... neither positively or…read morenegatively. It was all mediocre. Service was the standard you'd expect at a Chinese restaurant. A little tight on the space between tables, but clean. We ordered several dishes: stewed beef noodle soup, stewed pork burger, liang pi, lamb pao mo soup, xi'an lamb soup, and sweet & sour pork ribs. All the food arrived pretty quickly, but the overall theme was that it was underseasoned. Nothing was wrong with them, they were just boring and lacked flavour. There are better restaurants for Xi'an cuisine, and I won't be returning here. Paid street parking.

While they are delicious pan-fried, the boiled version is truly special. Its unique texture is so remarkable that it stands out as the must-try choice. ​The experience continues with the Xi'an cold noodle, which arrive with the warm, irresistible aroma of sesame oil. Every strand of the handmade noodle is coated in a sauce that balances nutty, sweet, and sour notes perfectly, creating a playful harmony of flavours. Stop by at Lao Cai Chinese Cuisine to try authentic Xi'an foods.

we went for the lunch sets which are on social media…read more We ordered one of the soy marinated crab and shrimps set and one of the spicy anago set. Both came with a pot rice, a beef bone soup and sides. They are definitely a good deal. I really enjoyed the marinated crabs and shrimps. Both are very flavorful and fresh. Went very well with the rice. I personally found the batter of the fried anago a little too thick which overwhelmed the eel itself. But flavor is good I like most of the sides being kimchi is ny favorite. Well balance of spiciness and tanginess. It is unfortunate that they were out of the pan seared mackerel. I would love to go try it when they are available

The boneless fried chicken was good too. It was crispy yet still juicy. I would probably recommend getting one of the flavoured fried chicken instead of the original as it was a little plain. The fried sticky rice cake that came with it was yummy although a little plain without sauce (from the chicken)

Came here with my daugter and my mom. Daughter was craving an Acai Bowl so she and I both had Acai…read morebowls. Hers was the Nalu and mine was the Banzi Bowl. My mother had an Avocado Toast. Holy smokes, the Acai bowls here are massive. We were soooo full. If we ever come here again, we will just share one bowl with each other. Not sure that we will come here again though. The Acai bowls weren't bad but I've had better. I feel it could have been a bit sweeter. I was not impressed with my mom's Avocado Toast. I could see my mother struggling to cut her Avocado Toast so it seems the crust was quite hard. She ended up leaving a lot of the crust on her plate and just ate the middle of the bread. On the website I had seen Avocado Toast, sandwiches, wraps and Salmon Lox Bagel. I was quite dismayed to walk into this place and not see any of that stuff written on the menu. There was a small sign by the cashier that said to ask about Avocado Toast. I guess by the same token, I would have had to ask about Salmon Lox Bagel. Why make us ask about it? Why not just include it on the huge menu that was up on the wall? Might have made life easier when it came to ordering something for my mom who isn't into Acai bowls like us. This place seems to be somehow shared with Bean Around the World coffee shop which is right next door. There's no wall separating the two shops. You can walk from Anchor Eatery straight into the coffee shop next door. We ended up taking our food and drinks from Anchor Eatery and sitting next door at Bean Around the World coffee shop. Assumed it was allowed since there was no separation between the two shops and nobody tried to kick us out of the coffee shop.

It's definitely a good option if you're looking for something quick and affordable in the area. The food itself was pretty average--nothing particularly memorable, but it did the job for a casual lunch. Flavours were decent, portions were fair for the price, and everything came out fairly quickly. Overall, it's a solid budget-friendly lunch option if you're in the neighbourhood and craving Thai, but not necessarily a place I'd go out of my way for.

Food had good flavour but all the seafood was soooo overcooked and just bad…read more We asked for Medium spice for all dishes they came out mild. This was disappointing. Service wasn't great either. Beef garlic fish was tasty but very small. All the portions were tiny apart from the curry. We actually really enjoyed the red curry with beef. Pad thai was good , but again, prawns were old , previously frozen and very dry and chewy. Drunken seafood was disgusting. Just a bag of frozen seafood that they overcooked. Brutal.

What a great hotpot place! We're always visiting from Seattle and love trying new hotpot places…read moreeverytime and this place was amazing! It's a very nice family run place and everyone was very friendly and always checking up on us. We even got a free sesame ball to try and the shell was crispy and the filling had a perfect sweetness. We had their house special mushroom and spicy hotpot which both were very good! They mentioned their homemade mushroom broth has 12 different mushrooms in it and it really does make you feel all warm and cozy. Overall the food and service is great and you have no problem finding parking. Thank you for serving us late at night!

Two of us had Vegetable Ramen, my daughter had the Cheese Katsu and my mom had a Gyoza with Salad. We've ordered the Vegetable Ramen and Cheese Katsu before but the Gyoza with salad was different. Kind of a nice option I think. Might try ordering it myself next time, with the Vegetarian Gyoza instead. Gyoza is usually just an appetizer, so it's not like ordering a heavy meal, but adding the salad greens makes it a bit healthier. A more balanced meal while still being on the lighter side.

We got there at 8 and out by 9pm. They either extended their hours or they continue to serve customers coming in between 8-9 anyways because a few other groups arrived after us for dine in and take out as well. Both dishes were bomb! The cold soba blew me away becasue it was refreshingly cold and the chew to the noodle is 10/10. The pork katsu losses its crisp sitting in the broth which is too bad but the cheese is still delicious nonetheless. Can't wait to be back again.
