thong la's restaurant

chow mein and rice. pork fried rice is blue and tastes like a chemical, tongue and mouth are burning and they don't believe us!!!!
hopefully this doesn't happen to anyone else.

really bad taste. we have been ordering from thong la's for a very long time, we loved it, but tonight we ordered and it tasted like chemicals or something my tongue and throut are burning, we called them and they said oh thank you it is good isn't it.....no english communication so i took it back and they pretty much said no complaints only from you, and laughed opened it all up and said well what's wrong, i told her and she laughed again took it to the back brought me $20 and said nothing no apology or a new order, nothing. we aren't impressed seems how we really enjoyed theirfoodand prices in the past....but no longer

good quality with low price. i have ordered chinesefoodfor a long time. recently, thong la restaurant became my best chocie for chinese food. for others' chinese restaurants, they just mix the soy sauce and hot water to make the soup,and it's a common problem for chinese restaurant in abbotsford . but i saw the chef thong was using the chicken legs to make the soup. it's absolutely different taste from the soy sauce soup.and i was surprised when i pay the bills. everything is $5.95. i have to say thong la restaurant is my best chocie for chinese food.

this is an old menu. thefoodis excellent  and the restaurant is clean as a whistle. however, the dishes are now $7.35 a piece not $6.49. the servings are generous so it is still a very good price.

i have eaten take out here many times. i normally get it delivered but decided to pick it up. just so you are aware, the build/up keep is terrible. it smells like they smoke in it, the walls are dirty, and ceiling is stained.
this is only the entrance where they are "ok" with this presentation so you can only imagine the kitchen.
i picked up my order and drove across town to find out they still had part of my order. i ended up driving back across town to pick it up. they didn't seem to care about the inconvenience, and why would they.
in thefoodthat i had picked up, inside contained human hair. not just 1 but 4. 2 long hairs and 2 curly black ones.
it was so nasty to find it in our dinner.
just beware.

i have tried 8 chinese restaurants in the valley between mission and abbotsford and been disappointed each time. this place was the first time i've had good chinesefoodsince moving to the valley (2 years). the price $6.50 per dish is outstandingly reasonable and every dish we tried (wonton soup and 5 others) was delicious. i would highly recommend this place. i ordered take out and walked in to be greated by a rude waitress so i knew it was going to be authentic!!! i'm not ordering here to make friends i am more concerned with goodfoodand that was provided

what the heck happened??. when they 1st opened we really liked thefoodand you couldn't beat the $5.95 per everything item. thefoodwas always delivered fast, hot and very good, but last night... terrible.. it was barely warm, and thefoodhad no taste. even the won ton soup was bland. it seem that after the price was raised thefoodsuffered in quality and in quantity. wont be eating here anymore!!!!

wonderful. we drove from mission to see if the reviews were right. quiet on a monday night and super delicious food. bestfoodfor reasonable price. ordered 3 plates and soup. $30-$35. and i have lunch tomorrow. we will be back.

goodfood& good value. clean & quiet. maybe a bit slow, but worth the wait.

couldn't be happier!. we needed to feed a party of 40 for a birthday party hosted in a hall. thong la did an amazing job. they brought thefoodto the party on time (even though we had changed the delivery time on them a couple of times), they packaged thefoodin a way that made it easy for us to serve a large number of people....and most importantly, thefoodwas great. it looked appetizing and tasted fresh and delicious. we received many, many compliments on thefoodfrom our guests. and i would definitely order from them again. 100% satisfied!!

good value and decentfoodfor the very cheap price. $5.95 for everything is great!

update 6/18/15
they've raised their prices to $6.49/plate, but who cares? fed a family of 3 adults, plus had enough leftovers for hubby's lunch for work the next day, for $30. thefoodis still fantastic. love this place

---------------------------------------------------
ohhh yummm. who can possibly beat $5.95 for everything on the menu.
we ordered deep fried prawns - for $5.95 - and got 15 of them! the sweet and sour pork is awesome. almond chicken - 3 breasts for $5.95. and the mushroom chop suey. we also tried the spring roll...very yummy and the egg roll, which was good, but not fabulous like other things.

our new favorite chinese place in abbotsford. not sure we'll be going anywhere else ever again.

we fed 3 people for $32 for dinner!

neato. my dad had been there a few times and really enjoyed himself, so we both went tonight. when you're served each dish, each of which seems to come out as soon as it's prepared, they give you a big plate full; i reckon it's enough to easily split between four people.

we got wonton soup, chicken wings, poutine, spicy boneless pork ribs (i think..? something like that) and some plain rice.
the folks across from us had ordered wonton soup as well, after we did. when ours came out they exclaimed "is that how big it is?!"
haha.

thefoodwas all quite nice and i'm not even that big on chinese-style food.

everything on their regular menu is 5.95 as of this writing, no matter what it is. they have another menu for special slightly more unusual and more expensive items (bbq duck is so goooood).

fine service. no pestering. few staff but friendly and well-mannered. i don't know if they have backup; i could see it getting a little hectic if it filled up, though it's a fairly small joint anyway.

give it a shot, folks. not bad at all. i will certainly be returning.

by far the best chinesefoodi'm abbotsford! authentic food, so much taste, over 100 dishes.
