Experience for a first time visit was great, no complaints. Service was what attentive, personable and quick, however when it came to pricing on the menu that’s when I thought I must be in some high end 5 star exclusive downtown vancouver. Realizing of course, I was not, but rather in South Surrey I had to calm my panic. Luckily the affordable food items were readily avail on the Happy Hour Menu. Everything else was just a bit insane, if I’m being honest. Example, $19 for Master Chicken which gave me two subpar small pieces of fried chicken and some delish creamed corn with bacon and a side of mash potato. Small portions expected for a Happy Hour no questions there. Looking at the main menu of the same item, by at one more piece of chicken it jumps from 19 to 31 which seems in all fairness a bit of absurd. My reasoning behind this is simple: One drumstick which is quite meaty and not bad, but then you get to your second piece of chicken - the thigh and it’s mainly bone, barely any meat whatsoever. I took the liberty of mentioning this to my server, her remark was, “that’s cut of the chicken they have.” If I were chef, I wouldn’t have cooked, plated and served a boney chicken thigh with barely any meat to be enjoyed. Not a chance.
Had I ordered the $31 version and had had the same issue, one percent would’ve sent it back to the kitchen.
Now with that said, everything else was good, but definitely not great. The $2 a prawn cocktail dip should honestly have one price attached to it vs paying 2$ a prawn.
The lobster roll was tiny but good.
In the end, it’s doubtful I’ll be back as the money spent didn’t really justify the means.
I understand inflation, minimum wage going up, price of beef, chicken etc all up significantly. I get it. But wouldn’t it be better to have a full house and serve awesome food at reasonable prices, rather than a half empty establishment and “just good” food?
Food for thought.
Cheers
