Love the Beef Chow Fun and Char Siu Ramen. The decoration reminds me of modern Chinese high end restaurants interior in China. The fried scallop was great. The other good thing is the 15% discount.

Amazing food and an even better experience! My friends and I ordered the Seafood Ramen (spicy soup), the spicy crispy salmon roll, and takoyaki—everything was absolutely delicious and bursting with flavour. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting the Waterloo area and looking for fantastic food at a reasonable price. The customer service was warm and attentive, making us feel truly welcomed, and the cozy, inviting atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing meal. Will definitely be coming back again!

Now this is what a ramen spot should be like! The whole atmosphere of the building was wonderful land definitely seemed as though i was stepping into a fine dining restaurant. The service was impeccable, with very friendly attitudes and excellent service i was very pleased. It took about 10 minutes for our food to come out (two of their signature ramens) which is incredibly fast and i was amazed at the huge portions. The most shocking part of the whole experience is how after barely finishing the huge bowl of the best ramen i have ever had the total was less than the average burger combo at a fast food spot!!? I highly recommend as a spot to get top notch ramen with fantastic service and a delightful atmosphere!

Overall, it's a decent Asian restaurant with large tables, late hours, and reasonable prices, especially with the cash discount. We got a Combo B and a tendorous rib ramen for dinner, and both were pretty good. I liked the texture of the crispy salmon roll but the ratio of tempura crumbs to salmon was too high. The ramen had a lot of meat, but was otherwise just ok. However, the server took a while to check if we were ready to order considering the restaurant was not very busy. The view from the second floor is pretty nice too.

Always our favorite go-to asian resto and the foods are the best and not so expensive! I've tried other sushi rolls but their spicy crispy salmon roll is still the best for me!!! 💯💯💯

Good Korean fried chicken mount not your traditional style. Unagi dish had very little unagi, but my ramen was very filling. Not your traditional ramen though. The skewers didn’t seem grilled. I would come back.

My absolute favorite comfort food place for Asian cuisine! I absolutely love their sushi combo as you get so much food for such a great deal. I also love their fried rice and their curry chicken! It can get very very busy as it's usually visited by a lot of uni students so be mindful when coming during the busy hours as it can take a while to get your food. The atmosphere is very nice and I highly recommend people to eat here if on a budget and are looking for some great comfort food!

UPDATED FOR 2024: bumped to 4*, reasonable prices that have stayed pretty stable, and they give good portions of food. most dishes also come with miso soup. overall solid and also cool selection of dishes. I would recommend the bentos, sushi sets, or rice bowls. (old review from 2021): I have visited twice: The curry pork cutlet rice is good, but the batter does not stick well to the cutlet. The teriyaki chicken doesn't seem to have the soy saucey and sweet taste of teriyaki. The oyakodon (take out) had egg shells in it. The ramen is good. They provide half of a hard-boiled soy egg and some wood ear mushrooms. Overall good value for portion size and convenient place to dine, but dishes are okay-ish. The lemon water is nice.

One of the best affordable eats in the city. May not be the greatest quality but appreciate the Asian menu variety, the speed of service, and the value (good portion sizes for what you pay). This is located on the second floor of the food court of Linden Square, so you might miss it. Parking is also hit or miss as it s below an entire (student) apartment complex. The washrooms are not attached to the restaurant but a little walk down the hall, and not well maintained. They only accept debit and cash, and will give a little discount (10% I think?) if paying by cash.

Authentic Asian cuisine at prices that are cheaper than nearby competition. The food is inconsistent. Sometimes, it is superb and other times it is meh. For instance, Ive ordered the vegetable fried rice 3 times now. The first time, it had plenty of veggies--bok choy and nappa, as well as little bits of tofu. The best veggie fried rice Ive ever had. The 2nd time, it had only rice and a tiny sprinkling of frozen peas/corn/carrots. (The veggies were hot, not frozen, but they looked exactly like what you get when you buy Green Giant frozen mixed veg at the supermarket). What a disappointment. The 3rd time, it had lots of 1-inch blocks of fried tofu, and a sprinkling of frozen peas/carrots. I liked it better when it had tofu AND greens. Weve had better success with the cripsy fried curry chicken with rice. It is very good. Sometimes, they pour the curry sauce on top of your chicken. Other times, they provide it on the side in a cup. The curry is very mild. The teriyaki chicken dish is very tasty, also. Given my mixed experience with the veggie fried rice, I think Ill be sticking to the teriyaki chicken donburi from now on. The teriyaki beef donburi is not your typical teriyaki beef. It looked and tasted like Cantonese beef and broccoli stir fry on white rice. It was tasty. It just wasnt teriyaki. Stay away from the oyakodon. It is meh. For a superb oyakodon, go to Momos, which is in the University Plaza, just a block away. I wouldnt say Foodie Fruitie has the absolute best Asian food, but the food is decent, and it does have the absolutely lowest price. They also give you a 15% discount if you follow them on instagram, so the price then goes even lower.

5 star for the food and service! but after knowing that the OWNER TAKES ALL OF THE TIP WE LEAVE FOR THE SERVER, is just low tier, selfish, irresponsible person Ive ever met. I found out when I was looking for changes/tip for the server, only to get told explicitly not to because the owner takes them all. Unbelievable. If you ever go to this restaurant, be careful what you do with that tip you are handing out.

I ordered on Fantuan requesting to have no peanuts in the food at all which includes PEANUT OIL ( the Resturant failed to recognize this) I was puking all night because of the peanut oil used and requested a refund because they gave me the wrong order but they declined it as they said they didn t put peanuts inside but my peanut allergy was triggered.

I used to come here. After today, I dont think I will. The service was horrible. After we were seated, we waited for 1 hour and werent brought water </3 or acknowledged while they continued to seat and take orders for many people that arrived after us. I get that today was Valentines day and its busy, but it was evident that the waiters were purposefully ignoring us in that we made eye contact multiple times and they rudely ignored us to the point where we were wondering if we had done something wrong. We ended up leaving and went to Kabob Shack where the service was lovely and we were finally able to rehydrate <3

In addition, we saw at least three cockroaches walking in the sink when we went to pay the bill!!! Can t imagine that!!! In my perspective, I think food quality and safety are much higher than price and the fake decorations. Absolutely won t go there anymore. Don t go there

Last time me and my friends went to this restaurant the waiter let us to wait for 20 mins didn t come to serve us, after we done our order we are waiting for another 45 mins to get our food, so we tip 0$ in the end, not sure the name of the waiter, Asian, male,wearing glasses, very bad attitude.

Unofficial covered parking at the residential building basement level. Often opens until much later than other restaurants in the food court. Huge menu with a variety of Asian options, though it is mainly Chinese influenced.

Every-time I come here, I usually get the sushi house special with spicy crispy salmon roll and squid balls. The sushi pieces are tasty and very big compared to most restaurant. The squid balls are soft and chewy. One time I got the chicken pad thai and it was very sweet and flavorful. The sushi price is fairly affordable compared to most places and I highly recommend you try it.

Local Guide
December 23, 2022

Update: Quality and quantity of the dish significantly decreased: not filling! Ordered a cutlet udon and the cutlet shrunk in size because it was beaten to paper thin before frying it and camouflaging the thickness with flour. Service is so slow! 20 min wait on a udon? I can make one in 5 min at home. Still following the cash discount idea, honestly current times you need to evolve away from that. No free ice cream at all. (5 years ago was 4 stars review): Great asian food for a reasonable prices, a bit crowded during dinner time, sometimes youll have to share a table with someone else. Free ice cream at the end :) If you pay cash you get 5% off.

Food is great. You can get a combo with a sushi roll and appetizer for ~$11. Sushi rolls are huge, almost 1.5 size times your typical roll size.

This place has a very interesting menu. With the selection of noodles, sushi, snacks, and much more. There is a large variety of asian cuisines that is available but I feel like they are the definition of the saying the jack of all trades, [but the] master of none. Id say the food is alright (i guess the sushi was the best). I ate all my friends dishes and nothing really stood out. My noodles tasted like msg and the tempura was soft like a muffin. If you were to come here, it would not be because you crave the food but because you and your friends cannot decide on what to eat and everywhere else is closed during the late nights. But the service was great, they were very attentive and I enjoyed the lemon water.

I had never had sushi before this place, and I am now hooked. Their sushi is fantastic, awesome portion sizes and friendly service in a neat environment.

Mango slush was very nice. Pork belly skewer was very nice. Pork bone soup style bbq ramen had too much bean sprout. The ramen only had the beansprout taste, but nothing else.

The curry chicken cutlet on rice was good. Could have used a bit more curry and potatoes in my opinion. Portion was good. Brown sugar bubble tea was good but in my opinion the tapioca seemed stale.

Big asian waitor is the rudest guy I ever seen. Threw the menu on the table then look away, slab my food on the table. When he held the ice cream his palm touches it. Who hired this man should be fired along with him.

Good food, good prices. Ceiling was leaking water onto our table but otherwise a good experience

Decent price for the amount that you get. But quantity does not justify the quality. The taste is average I guess, nothing special. Only gripe is that the broth is very salty which makes it hard to finish a bowl and you can tell the noodles are not the best, okay to say the least. I ordered the beef kimchi ramen.

This place is great. Everything about it.The upper level dinning area, the cold pitchers of lemon water. The dishes are large portions, soup is amazing. Free ice cream dessert. Super quick service. Value and quality place.

You literally get what you pay for, the prices reflect the meal. Large portions, quality is 7/10 but nothing stands out or is amazing. Youu cant beaat $10 for a big ccombo meal especiall with the 10% If you have the discount card and pay in cash.

We ordered a few meals online through doordash, and unfortunately the doordash driver had to call us an hour after the order to tell us the restaurant hadnt started making the food yet. We called the restaurant to see whats up but there wasnt any good explanation and just said the food should be done soon. Still waiting an hour and a half later for it....hopefully the food is worth it.

This was their veggie ramen.... no soup, just ramen noodles in a ton of oil and cheap vegetables. Probably the worst food I ve ever eaten in my life. Please stay away

The food is really good and they have a well priced lunch menu. I d recommend having the option to use a credit card rather than cash and debit only

Great prices and massive portions. They also have lots of space so I highly recommend it for large groups. Perfect for students celebrating or mourning after exams

Just ordered two bubble teas and they messed both up almost completely(not even tapioca in them). One was so bad that it was undrinkable. (Ordered 50% sweetness and recieved what seemed like 100%) It was pretty much syrup in a cup.

Ordered some sushi as a late night snack and was not at all disappointed! Portion sizes were big and great for the price, plus I got a free dessert thrown in with my order (Taro Coconut Milk with Sago). First time ordering from here and it wont be the last, Im very happy! :)

I really, really enjoyed my food from here and really appreciated being able to order bubble tea with my noodle bowl and sushi rolls however lately my orders get cancelled because pearls and or jelly is out of stock though the app doesnt reflect this, why?

this place is known to not have good quality food. the first time i tried it, i thought it was just a fluke. but the meat literally tastes like its made of plastic. its cheap though so you get what you pay for.

Ordered the pad thai, delivery, and was disgusted to find a bug in my food. Will not be returning.

Its a great place to hang out with friends and great seating areas. However, the food is pretty mediocre and not the best tasting. Although they sometimes give big portions, overall its not a place I would go often as theres many better places to eat in the area.

Can t decide where to eat? You come here, they have a little bit of everything from ramen, sushi, rice platters, skewers, bbt, udon, fried rice and more. You would imagine a place with a huge menu to be pretty bad but this place is able to make everything pretty good and reasonably priced for student budgets.

Very good food considering the price. I would highly recommend the crispy spicy salmon sushi as well as the chicken teriyaki skewers.

The combo meals with ramen are definitely worth it and come in big portions. Lots of rice, noodle, or sushi dishes to choose from and at reasonable prices. Love taking my friends here. Be mindful that they serve peanuts to every table so allergies may be an issue but overall really tasty food at a good price.

Hidden gem by UW! Ramen is fantastic. Sushi great as well. This little food court has a lot of authentic Chinese street food.
