specialty chicken & wonton house

for the lunch special, you can have a soup or a drink. ben opted for the daily soup. the daily soup of the day was pork bones with red carrot and green carrot. we had the chicken flavouredriceinstead of plain steamed rice. we also ordered a second lunch special to share. the above is goat brisket/tendon on rice. this is usually eaten in the winter and it is usually served in a hotpot. for the lunch special, it is served directly on thericeitself. the meat was tender and we love the sauce on the rice.

we had lunch at specialty chicken chicken & wonton house on ackroyd road. we ordered two dishes to share. the first item was halibut hot pot. the halibut was slightly crunchy as they were deep fried before cooking in the hot pot with lots of onion and green onion. i can just eatricewith the onions alone with the sauce that sticks to the onions.

we went there for dinner. we had:

small lamb stew hot pot ... it came without the gas stove, we asked one of the long pony tail hair server, she told us that, we need to order the big size, if we want the gas stove.

i found out, it's just only $6 more for big one. then i asked her to change into big size with gas stove.. then she went to ask the cook and back said that...." ok.. we can put more meat and veggie inside for u...but without the gas stove" with inpatient and mean face..

we asked for gas stove , because the lamb stew will be cold without keep it warm.

what's the point, they give me more food without gas stove??

its end up, we keep the small size... but found out it just only have 6 small pieces of lamb stew with dried bean curd on top and a lot of cabbages underneath. it's not worth for $24.

we also ordered...

half soy chicken.. smaller size before and extremely salty. ..

salty fish with guy lan ... veggies look and taste like overcooked.

their services and food quality used to be good.

no wonder we are 3 rd table at dinner time...

their food quality and services are better than before

lousy service and rude waitress and juz so-so food. it was a rainy day and i walked in for a late lunch and wanted to sit next to the windows so i could watch the rain. but the waitress "disapproved" of me sitting at the first table near the entrance which is empty and walked me to sit behind the cashier and kinda dim there. but i reckon her reasoning was rude coz i was alone and she gave me the feeling that i would have walked out without them noticing or before settling the bill. anyway i stayed coz kinda hungry and could not do anything about her obviously rude way of service as she did not say it out aloud. y e t you definitely f e l t it!!!! so i ordered their beef and bean curd clay pot ($13+++) and a bowl ofrice($1.50) and total bill came as $16++ the food was just ok and nothing to shout about.. i put down a $20 bill and it took the waitress the longest time to come and collect it to complete the transaction eg giving me back my change... so i only gave them $1 tips... maybe i should have not left them any tips given that very rude unspoken mental humiliation or treatment.

food was cold and not fresh! terrible service. the 2 dishes we ordered came withriceand soup. the soup was luke warm,ricewas cold, chicken platter was not fresh and the hotpot was cold.. we asked them to make it hot and the waitress was so rude to take it away .. only to receive it back minutes later and still only warm. the service is really bad and would only reccomend the free range chicken when it's fresh.. will not be back! please beware!

just had an awful experience here. staff did not understand any english which made ordering a challenge.
after slow service our tasteless food arrived. the broth was tasteless and the meat (bbq pork/chicken) was insipid with a unpleasant aftertaste. after 10 mins thericefinally came at the end of our meal without apology. we paid and left and were chased down the street as the server hadn't checked our table for payment.
one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had - save your wallet and pallet - go somewhere else.

where's the wonton?. for a restaurant that calls itself a wonton house, i don't see a lot of wonton options. aside from a lot of squab dishes, the menu looks similar to most chinese restaurants.

the friendly service (rare in chinese restaurants) are quick and efficient. the servers dart efficiently from table to table, as organised as bees in a hive. our server speaks no english--and when i say no english, i mean none. i ordered off the menu by numbers but she didn't know any of the numbers. fortunately, i speak cantonese, otherwise, i'd have to point at the menu and grunt. no worries, your food will still get to you.

the food here looks a little different than the norm. the egg foo yung sits in a round dish/bowl, and looks a bit like a quiche. the top layer tastes a little crispy while the innards are ooey, gooey good. i would have liked to see a bit more barbecued pork but what's there tastes fine.

the roast pork comes with wonderfully crisp skin and great flavour. the meat is not too fatty, which can often occur because the roast comes from the pork bellies.

the curry vegetables have a bit of spice, but not enough to intimidate the mildest of eaters. the vegetables taste crunchy and cooked well.

with two dishes ordered, you get thericeand a bonus bowl of chicken feet broth. a lot of people i know won't want to eat the feet--at least taste the broth, it's delicious. dessert comes with dinner too, which is a sweetish bean bowl.

yummy!. we got 3 dishes,riceand sweet soup for only 30$. the chicken was very good and the pork soup was like my mom's cooking. the soy sauce chicken was good but the garlic/onion chicken was the bomb. the skin is perfect! this place taste great and very good price. great cantonese style food!
