Food: Dismaying flavor with portion abundance

At Monja Taiker, the Monja BBQ Red Grain Pork, Ground Pork Rice, and the Fried Pork Chop commendably save face with their generous portions. However, the commendable quantity is overshadowed by underwhelming taste and freshness concerns. Disturbing is the rampant complaints about old, tough meat undermining the overall culinary experience.

  • Large Portions

    Generous, huge portion sizes overwhelmingly satisfied the customers.

  • Okay Taste

    Meals are often satisfying but occasionally hit or miss for some.

  • Low Quality

    Complaints about old, unfresh, tough meat and declining food quality.

Vibe: Disturbingly noisy with mediocre drinks

The state of ambiance at Monja Taiker marred by an extremely crammed space and inappropriate noise level. The amplifying loud music in such confined quarters did nothing but disrupt the dining scene. And what is a dinning experience without good drinks? Unfortunately, the drinks here follow the suit: equally disappointing.

  • Great Buzz

    Most popular; Thursday night dinner spot implies trendiness.

  • Bad Drinks

    Drinks mediocre or bland; some poor reviews on drink variety and taste.

Perks: Arduous parking with inhospitable service

Service at the restaurant further downgrades the experience with rudeness and inattentiveness. Their policy on pets and groups couldn’t be more unwelcoming. Parking poses another major inconvenience, being hectic during peak hours. Outdoor seating rob customers of privacy and ambiance, as it's merely a parking lot sitting area.

  • Okay For Kids

    Good family dinner, satisfied with food, but service could be better.

  • Bad Service

    Inconsistent service with occasional rudeness and inattentiveness from staff.
