Clean, friendly staff, decent value. 3.75/5The Chinese wine chicken was great (maybe because it was boneless, so bonus points for that) House special noodle was done well – crunchy sides, and a good variety of meat and vegetables.Good for a quick bite that doesn’t break the bank.
Very special Taiwanese/Chinese restaurant. The following elements DO NOT exist in this restaurant:1. Meat or veggie drenched in intense sauces or grease2. Excessive salt in dishes that would require a gallon of water to flush down3. North American style Chinese food4. Feeling tragically like a 400lb man after dining5. Feeling guilty after eating (for some people)The following elements DO exist in this restaurant:1. Light but yet enough flavor for every dish3. Some authentic Taiwanese dishes.2. More or less what mom (at least my mom) would cook like at home4. Feeling light and can go for a healthy walk immediately after dining5. Completely guilt-free after eating
Very good food. The restaurant itself is nothing special but the food more than makes up for it. The kids love the chicken fried rice. We have been there many times and have done take out as well.
A solid neighbourhood Chinese cafe. I’d wondered about Wen Xin Restaurant many times, when driving by on Rumble St, and my wife and I had the chance to try it tonight.The menu is a combination of a number of Shanghai style dishes, along with a mixture of some Sichuan and Northern Chinese dishes as well.We tried the shredded pork with plum sauce, the prawns with chilis and peanuts, and hot and sour soup. The winner of the meal was definitely the prawns. Lots of flavourful dried spices, just the right amount of oil, and blisteringly spicy. We both like spicy food, but had to make sure not to swallow too many of the dried chilis after a while.The plum sauce pork was also good, likely glazed in a slightly salty and sour, not too sweet, plum sauce (almost like Japanese umeboshi), and served over fresh french-cut green onions. It made a nice contrast to the prawns.The hot and sour soup was good (especially on a chilly night) but not the best I’ve had, and was not as vinegary as I personally like it, but the ingredients were fresh, and I’d certainly order it again.The menu (and specials on the wall, but those were in Chinese only), and other diners’ tables, were all full of enticing temptations for next time: smoked duck, hot pot, garlic sauce eggplant, salt and pepper squid or chicken.We’ll definitely be back to try some of the other goodies.
Weak. The atmosphere was drab and the food oily. My wife was asking for oriental food so I obliged but even she should be convinced not to come back here. Cost is $25 for 2.
