What 81SB81 doesn't like about Eastern Promise:
We had been wanting to try this takeout restaurant for a while, so we decided to treat ourselves at the end of a day out. My husband played it safe by ordering his favorite Chinese dish, the chef's special fu yung. We picked up our food and drove home, but unfortunately, the fu yung was dry, flavorless, and lacked the usual variety of meats and prawns that are typically included in a special dish.

Eastern Promise, a once-cherished gem in the culinary landscape, has sparked a wave of mixed reviews following recent visits. While the charm of attentive service remains, the food quality has taken a notable downturn. Many patrons lament the bland flavors and disappointing consistency in dishes like fu yung and Singapore rice noodles. Despite echoes of past excellence and heartfelt staff interactions, the restaurant struggles to uphold its legacy amid rising prices and diminishing quality. If you're seeking authentic Chinese cuisine, numerous diners now suggest exploring other options, leaving the future of this beloved establishment in uncertainty.
