New Island BBQ

Still hard to beat this place for price and selection and quantity /​quality of food parking can be hit and miss so plan on take out and double park on street while waiting for order.

Worker got my order wrong and i went back to tell her. She sits there eating her lunch in front of the cashier and tells me that there is no such order when i specifically asked her over the phone. All I asked was to modify my noodles and I am pretty damn sure switching the noodles isn’t going to change the recipe. Upon picking up my food, i came back to my office and the order was wrong. I went back to tell her my order was wrong and she tells me there is no just thing as what I ordered. i asked her if she could modify it and she specifically said yes over the phone when i was making a phone order and argues to prove a point that she’s right. Uhhhhh i really doubt that i dont remember what I ordered and I wouldnt have ordered from here if I knew I wasn’t gonna get what I ordered bc the food here tastes bland and shitty anyways. So take my donation of $ 9 and shove it up your ass.

Cheap eats! I usually get the fresh saimin, which is a fairly good size with veggies for only $ 2.75 and/​or French toast (3 slices bread 2.25). The wor won ton (6.75) is also good, if you like a lot of won ton. I counted more than 10 last time. I usually ask for more veggies and less won ton.
My coworker ordered the mini chicken katsu last month and got two cutlets (5.25). It was enough for two meals. The regular sized one was three cutlets. Unless you are a big eater or want a kanak attack, I would suggest sticking with the mini plates when available. Their stir-​fry tends to be on the salty side.
Lastly, there are items not on their takeout menu, like steamed fish, bittermelon with various meats, and mapo tofu. They all looked good, though I’ve only tried the steamed fish (7.75), prepared the traditional Cantonese way. With the exception of seafood and the regular beef plates, none of the items exceed $ 8.00. Cheap enough that you can afford to eat there at least once a week. And best of all, no msg is added to any of their dishes.

Prices are reasonable here. We picked up breakfast… I had the mushroom/​cheese omelette. It was a huge omelette served over rice. Tasty… I hear that their lunch food is good too. It’s a hole in the wall but good! I’ll be back to try something different!

Great place for a quick plate lunch take out. Quick service, plenty food and economical. Mini plates really good. Friendly lady taking orders seems like she knows everyone. Call in great way to save time!
