Preference Restaurant - Burnaby

The owner takes great pride in their restaurant. They use a limited amount of MSG in their dishes. However, the service is lacking in friendliness and could benefit from employees putting on a more cheerful demeanor. If this were to improve, the restaurant could easily earn an additional star in their evaluation.

We didn't feel like cooking, so we decided to go to a restaurant near our house that we wanted to try. The place was small and we were the only ones there. They were taking orders and the waitress was nice. The food was on the spicy side, with the seafood noodles having jalapeños and small red peppers with seeds. The tripe and beef dish had a lot of chili oil, as did the beef soup. I particularly enjoyed the deep-fried chicken with roasted rice.

This charming restaurant serves up traditional Sichuan and Taiwanese cuisine. I arrived right when they opened at 11:30 and found their lunch specials to be an excellent value. I had a delicious and satisfying meal for less than $10.

Owner very proud of his restaurant. Limited amount of MSG used. Service is not pleasant, they need to put on a happy face. That would improve the rating by at least another star.

Didn’t want to cook so decided to head out to a restaurant close by our house that we’ve been meaning to try. Place is small and we were the only people in the restaurant. They had some take out orders. Waitress nice. Food on the...spicy side. Seafood noodles had jalapeño and the small red peppers with the seeds. The tripe and beef had a lot of chilli oil as well as the beef noodle soup. I really liked the deep fried chicken fried rice.
