Came here on the recommendation of some friends! The food is fantastic! The portion are unbelievable and price can't be beat! The service was very fast and friendly! If you like spice, this is the place. But you can ask them to make is non-spicy as well, just as good! The place is small but very nice.

Firstly, their sweet and sour soup is AMAZING! Perfect if you have a cold, will clear your nose in no time!
Secondly, their food doesn't have an overall good look to it. Very dull colours and unappetizing.
I would say the flavour isn't bad in their food but they definitely cook in quantity over quality.
One dish I wouldn't recommend would be the line chicken. It's sort of sour and not really for my palette.
However, I do feel that they have many options in their restaurant and this review may not reflect how all their food tastes. -

This was the first time I've ever had Hakka food, and it was very tasty. There are lots of similarities to Chinese food, but is more spicy and has a greater variety of ingredients in each dish. We had an eggplant dish (small cubes of soft and flavourful eggplant with black beans), spicy dry fried chicken, hot and sour soup (with pickled daikon and carrots, unlike the typical Chinese style), and Hakka style chow mein.
If you're vegetarian, order from the vegetarian part of the menu, or confirm and ask if dishes can be made without meat. They were flexible, and can change the level of spiciness, too!
The waiters are really friendly, and the environment is homey and happy. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for authentic Hakka food. My partner's family is part Hakka and it's approved by them as well :) -

Absolutely love Chung Moi Restaurant. We have been purchasing Chicken Curry from them for over 10 years. By far our most favourite place to eat.
If you want to order from a place who values and appreciates their customers, you will go here. Theresa values all her customers and is always making sure her employees customer service is the best it can be. -

I've been coming here for lunch for many years and realized that i've not written anything about this place. First of all, I stumbled upon this place after seeking a Hakka place not far from the office. I've had pretty much everything on the menu over the years. I've also brought many of my colleagues here for lunch and they also returned.
Inside, there are tables inside to accommodate from 2 to 10 people, the place is clean and always well maintained. I like the casual atmosphere and pay later attitude. The register is located by the front counter making it easy to pay on the way out or put in a takeout order without having to go through the entire restaurant.
It's pretty clear I enjoy the food here, what specifically enjoy about CM is the quality of the food and large portion sizes. Spice levels are also good, I'd say 7-8/10 for their spicy dishes. Sauces and gravies are not as pronounced as some of the other places making the plates more centric on the ingredients and lighter looking than usual.
