  • I have never liked a restaurant THAT much to go back the next day. This was a coincidence as my friend heard great things about Delightful, and invited me to come for dim sum. So I went

    3 of us ordered quite a few dim sums - from small ($2.80), to medium ($3.xx), to SP ($6.xx), and a congee

    final bill for 3 is $60, which was a bit on the pricey side (almost as expensive as Cameron). We did order more than we should (ended up taking home 2 boxes) though

    Food quality is average-good so it's not bad if you watch the prices

    Bathroom was really fancy and clean, gotta visit :)

  • Order: dim sum

  • This is not your normal restaurant, and it`s debateful whether it belongs on Restaurantica, but having visited twice and had a blast, I would love to share them to anyone

    First visit was Aug 6, spent an hour preparing 6 meals (learning as we go). Booked session for Sep 20, got 6 meals done in 30 minutes

    During the session, staff offer food samples and drinks for you. 10 for the staff, very friendly and gave everyone a bag of cookies to take home after the session

    Menu-wise, they offered variety of selections from chicken, beef, pork, wrap, fish, side dishes, desserts so you usually struggle to pick 6 out of so many.

    Food-wise, they are not something we normally prep but the flavours are interesting, taste really good too.

    I would recommend everyone to give it a try

  • The place is clean, big and bright

    Offers lunch special under $10, comes with soup and a spring roll. The lunch portions were huge, I had only finished half and took home the rest

    Dim sum quality are alright, didn't try a lot
    Small start from $2.xx, Medium/Large/SP $6.xx

    Next time I'll give it a full dim sum lunch trial and maybe, just maybe we'll have comparable-to-Toronto dim sum in KW

  • Order: bbq pork fried rice, house special, some dim sum

  • 1st visit to this restaurant as I was craving for Greek food, and good rating attracted me there

    Found it in an office building basement (across Center of Square), the least expected place to look for a restaurant. It has a small parking lot beside it

    Ordered the traditional souvlaki lunch (pork, greek sald, potatoes), all good, tasty, very greek.

    Would visit again if I am thinking Greek

  • Order: lunch souvlaki, gyros/souvlaki on pita

  • It's been a while since my last Yummyaki visit, but it was confusing as for lunches, you order at the counter and pay first (not the usual get menu, waiter take your order, pay after)

    Besides the confusion, bento lunch boxes were big, served with miso soup, salad, BBQ short rib, tempuras for $10.95

    Would definitely visit again

  • Order: bento boxes - BBQ short rib, sesame chicken, ninja deluxe

  • With high rating on Restaurantica, and ads everywhere along I90 and Hwy 79, we decided to visit this for our big dinner during the 2-day shopping/water park trip

    Atmosphere was dark, okay clean, the waiters are a bit hit-or-miss at times (sometimes they are attentive, sometimes they aren't)

    Food, it was cooked nicely by the "chef" in a good presentation and funny demonstration (throwing food at customer's mouth, lighting up big fire on the plate)
    The portions were huge for a person (lots of meal) and our bill was $102 for 5, very reasonable

    Wouldn't mind visiting again next time I'm in Erie

  • Order: dinner for two, Geisha Special, New York Steak

  • Risotto was pretty decent, but as a main course, it might be a bit too little. The desert was a bit expensive at $10. Probably should have ordered the lunch special (3 course for $20 instead instead of separate main course and desert). Others in the party ordered steaks, and they liked it.

  • Order: herb risotto + creme bulle

  • We stopped by an hour before the 8 pm performance and ordered 3 sandwiches for take out plus 2 iced teas for total of $30

    Food was as usual good, maybe not excellent after visiting it a few times, but it was healthy content, okay portion, and a good sandwich better than fast food

  • Order: Thai Chicken, Tuna Salad

  • It took at least 15 min for someone to approach our table to take our drink order (and it wasn't even that busy!!) The nachos were totally stale and I ordered the burrito and got the chimi (which was tasteless). We usually love this place but were totally turned off this experience!! (not to mention our plates that needed replacing... several chips in the plates!!) It looked like the owner was sitting people so why didn't she service any of the tables (at least take their drink order)

  • Order: Nachos and Burrito, beer and wine
