An excellent restaurant serving authentic Hakka food. I compare Encore to my absolute favourite Hakka restaurant, Federick Restaurant in the east end of the city. My only negative is that for me, the restaurant seems to lack the comfort (read atmosphere) I enjoy at Federick. Encore Hakka Restaurant certainly deserves our business.
Love their chicken corn soup, Bombay chicken, chilli chicken and almost everything is worth a try. If you crave Hakka food, one can blindly trust some of the classic dishes to taste at its best here. I order food from here atleast once a month on skip the dishes and they have never failed to surprise me with their amazing food. Love them.
Overall the food was good and tasty. portions were generous making it a great value for you cash. Only downside was the spring rolls. very oily taste. I know they are deep fried, but maybe the oil was a little old?
We will come back again next time we are in town.
The food is great. Place is really cozy and the prices are good too. They also deliver using Doordash and UberEats. I do have some comments however. One being that the fries are served very hot, too hot to where my mouth burns immediately. It shows that everything really is made to order, but leaving the fries to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving may help them cool down. Also I noticed with any fried foods, particularly the chicken balls and chicken wings, there just seems to be too much breading and not enough chicken. I would much rather have a smaller, more chicken-dense chicken ball as opposed to a over-battered chicken ball. Or just add more chicken to the ball and/or wings. However, the rest of the food is great, the prices are fair and the staff are friendly. That, combined with the chicken issue, means this restaurant safely deserves a 4 star rating, or 8/10.
