Huge bowls of pho! My boyfriend picked me up from an early flight at Ontario Airport, and Bone &…read moreBroth was open right at 10 AM luckily. We ordered two bowls of the Pho Dac Biet & Ontario Combination Appetizer plate. Everything was out pretty speedy to the table! The soup hit just right for a morning meal. The portions here are VERY GENEROUS. It had plenty of tasty meat and lots of noodles (cooked a bit al-dente for my taste, but it's different for everyone). I think my boyfriend and I could've honestly shared one bowl and be satisfied. It was not a bad price either for a huge bowl. I might be biased since I love huge portions for an affordable price, but I thought it was a delicious bowl. The appetizers were solid, I would've liked a bit more portion as the egg rolls and shrimp rolls were a skinny. If I lived closer I would probably frequent this place a lot more, but this will probably be the place I go to when I fly out of ONT. Way better than other spots that I've tried in the IE so far.

The pho is best. And won't feel thirsty afterwords. So that means they do use real meat broth, not…read morepowdered fake flavor.

We started with the ika gesso (calamari) and the Seoul chicken wings and both were great! If I had to pick between the two, I think I'd order the ika gesso as the calamari was lightly fried and the sauce was really good. We followed with salmon carpaccio and it was so fresh and flavorful and the citrus and geisha rolls were also fantastic. The entire staff was kind and attentive, and it was busy but not crowded at dinner time on a Tuesday. Will be coming back next time I'm in town!

This is possibly my favorite spot in the IE. Certainly my favorite in Upland! We typically come for…read morethe lunch specials, and have never had anything less than a wonderful experience. The dishes are vibrant, fresh, and full of nuanced flavors. Must-try items include the mini puffs/veggie puffs, any or all of the curries, the fried rice (best fried rice I've ever had), pad thai, and the thai iced tea. The complimentary starter salad is always incredibly crisp and again freshness is the name of the game here, with a beautiful housemade sweet-and-savory ginger dressing that I may be slightly obsessed with. If you love your friends/family, you owe them a meal at Patra.

There was about a 40-minute wait for the food, so be prepared if you're coming during a busy time. Once it arrived, the pad see ew was a bit on the bland side at first, but adding some chili powder really brought it to life and made a big difference. The highlight of the meal was definitely the pork ribs--they were super tender and practically fell off the bone. The sauce they came with was absolutely amazing and packed with flavor. Overall, great service and some standout dishes--just a little patience (and maybe some extra seasoning) goes a long way here

As I walked in everything looked cleaned and I was suddenly hit with the smell of the lobby with burnt charcoal! Against my better judgment, I asked for the most popular dish and was given the chicken and beef teriyaki lunch special. It Does not come with a drink coupled with a full lunch special price!! Meal Taste: Both the lobby smell and smell of meal added with the black flakes matched the overly burnt taste. Spring roll: vegetable- Good Salad: okay with dressing, next day salad was welted. Rice- Mid *Need sauce- if I did not have charcoal bits and overly smoky meal, I could have used sauce to moisten meat, rice to eat instead of tossing next day on second attempt. I also found the multiple posting that if you give a 5-Star review you will get a 4piece free fried shrimp off putting with my experience. *Free to use debit card but will have to pay 3% fee for credit card transactions!!!

I would definitely eat my fair share of this dish. My only quibble is the "other" stuff oveshadows the lamb by a lot. I always thought with mixes like this it should be 60% protein and 40% other stuff. This is getting into serious Chinese stir-fry territory into the 33/67. That's one of the reasons I don't like Chinese food as much as some, because the meat seems to be lacking. The service was good. The woman behind the counter took my order competently and got the food out quickly. The one customer concession they lacked is the one that usually annoys me in that they sell cans instead of a fountain drink. I found myself in that limbo again where I was thirsty after my first can and I had to decide if it was worth it to pay for yet another soda. Lastly, the ambiance was good. There's ample space here without feeling crowded to the tables next to you. I definitely get the sense you could relax with a book here after your meal. But, overall, even though the food tastes great, the lack of equitable protein for the price and the lack of refills on a soda make this place only okay. If u ever come back I think one or both of those aspects would have to change.

When I arrived, the food court was PACKED, but this restaurant had no one in line. I should've known better and turned around. The girl at the counter was nice and helped me order a chicken bowl with beef on the side. I added some healthier toppings and got it to go. First thing, the lid didn't fit the bowl. Not a huge deal, but that could've easily spilled in the car. Second is the chicken was extremely dry. No amount of sauce could've saved it. The beef wasn't try but tasted old? I was really sad I couldn't finish this meal and feel like I wasted money.

I've been going to this location specifically because of how they make their salmon, which is always cooked to perfection. It's always cooked throughout, the grill marks are always perfect and it's crispy yet moist. This WaBa Grill location has better salmon then some nicer restaurants I've been to. And also LOVE how they cut the avocados. They are cut in a way where it takes up your whole bowl makes it definitely worth the extra money. I almost have avocado in every bite!! New ownership and management has really improved this place!! It always has me coming back! read more
