The owner is really rude. I personally know her and met her before. I came to her bar for the first and she asked me not cause trouble which really rude to say especially when you met the person. She than has the audacity to treat me like I wasn’t going to pay shoving the debit machine in my face. I’ve welcomed this women to my home and she treated me like that while treating other customers more welcoming. I will never return to this bar. She doesn’t deserve a good person like my self to spend a penny at her bar.

Fantastic service overall. Had a wedding party there today. Food preparation was great. We asked for dinners that were not on the menu, such as lasagna, salad, pork chops, BBQ chicken, soup and Kavita the owner order the wedding cake. Special thank you to Joey and Ron .

We had been here a few years before and the doors were locked, fortunately this time, I called ahead. This truly is a corner store hang out joint. The service was good, the food was fresh and drinks were cold. One of the few places you can get roast pork, well more like char sui/roast 5.5/10 and the chicken which appeared to be cooked as ordered 7/10. For us, the food is more important than the atmosphere. we are just regular guys on the road who like food.

This has to be highest bait restaurant I’ve ever been to, pictures and reviews show it as a regular, almost nice restaurant but it was absolutely horrendous. We waited an hour, absolute terrible service, for garbage food we don’t know if they got from another restaurant. Dirty inside, plastic utensils, styrofoam containers. The worst part was still the food , absolutely atrocious as we got the rice noodles that were bland, barely browned vegetables, crazy that is was raw inside. Massive chunks of onions, broccoli, and cabbage. Pretty sure they found this found at another restaurant since how it was served. Literally got served the white head of the cabbage. The management is disgusting in this place, please be aware before you come here.

I'm so glad that Kavita has opened her restaurant. It's a great place to grab a drink and food, and the bar is well stocked. The restaurant gives you that rum bar vibe, and I enjoyed the special chicken fried rice, and the pepper shrimp was also delicious—spicy but not too spicy, with the perfect flavour to enjoy without feeling overwhelmed. The food is made to order and took about 15 minutes, but no complaints here; I would rate slow food over fast food any day. I'm looking forward to trying other items on the menu!

Fair size restaurant and bar with big screen tv's, a fresh set up. Ran by a very customer friendly owner Kavita. Nice mixture of Caribbean and Chinese food. We had the fried calamari, mixed fried rice with bbq chicken and beef roti. Decent size portions and very tasty. Definitely will be back to try other menu items.
