“ I liked this place better than the other Good Taste - while there's a crowd, it is still manageable and can still find a seat during lunch hour. No, there's no robot server here unlike the other but you don't pay more either. I ordered the Lechon and Broccoli and their Moringa Citrus juice and...while I was not really wowed, liked it. I was hoping to have some 'wok hei' flavor being a Chinese resto and all but, sadly didn't get that. The portions are huge, the rice and vegetables are perfectly cooked. I would like to come back and try the other dishes. I am still expecting to be wowed afterall. This is a family-friendly place and also very pocket friendly - nothing pretentious, no ambiance nor bells-and-whistles. Just some down-to-earth casual dining. ”
“ We went here for a dinner and raining during the night of July. We ordered their famous chicken along with some tofu. We didn’t expect that the chicken would have a big serving. The taste of the chicken is like the chicken spicy of intramuros walls. It is savory but not that spicy. The breading is thick which was filled with sauce and so very good to partner with rice. The cheesecake we ordered as dessert was not that distinct. They can improve the cakes. At the end we decided to take out our chicken and paid extra 25 pesos for a quality microwaveable container. ”
“ There’s no doubt they serve generous amount of food and one order could already fill 2 tummies. The place is a bit old it’s near / just across the Dangwa terminal. The price is also affordable. We couldn’t try their pastries anymore as we were already full. ”
“ The food is delicious the price is affordable the place is nice and the staff are pleasant. Good taste is a must try ”
