Went on the recent PH during dinner time. Make no mistake, my 5 stars go solely to the singular gentleman running the entire store. He was super efficient despite being flooded with GF/FP orders and dine ins/takeaways, and he still maintained a friendly disposition and was engaging with customers. It’s disheartening to see from past reviews that he has been running this entire store ALONE for months on end? I sincerely hope more has been done to reward him aside from just “passing along our kind words”. It does not seem like a sound business model to only have 1 staff managing the entire store, juggling food preparation, cleaning tables, washing dishes and taking orders. You shouldn’t be “rewarding” your hardworking staff by giving him more responsibilities (working the store alone). Just because he can manage, doesn’t mean he should have to do it because of the company’s failure to provide more manpower. I find the previous reason provided for the manpower challenges on weekends being: “many prefer work-life balance and are less inclined to work” to be shallow and superficial. Explain then why the McDonalds next door never seems to be in short supply of workers even on weekends. Doesn’t seem like your staff are treated as what your business philosophy suggests. 5 stars for him. 1 star for management.
Rejoice. That's the unanimous sentiment that our lil family felt upon hearing that Yoshinoya, the og chain akin to Japanese fast food here that is found conveniently in many locations, is now wonderfully halal. We could not wait to finally be able to tuck into what we've always wanted to try so easily available and from what we could see affordably priced too. When we learned there is one nearby we knew it called for a quick drive to for makan. Ok there is no need to go over the different types of classic Japanese staples on the menu for I've listed a snapshot of the receipt with the description of what we ordered and ate. Suffice to say there are preferred choices for each of us. And plenty more. We were so excited and focused on the personalised combination to choose from – they have many mains with attractive add-ons, good selection of drink choices and sweet tempting desserts to please everyone – from their convenient kiosk for ordering that we didn't realise we were holding up another party behind but the helpful staff directed them to order from the counter instead. How wonderful the service the helpful efficient staff were. I decided to try their don and opted for the special Double Beef Negitama Gyudon as my baby girl pointed out that it has diced spring onion which she knew her dad would favour. I could not resist having an extra Onsen egg. And since I could complete it with a value for money set with an Udders mango sorbet it was pretty much a done deal. My tired son, after his full shift of internship serving, perked up and promptly ordered his favourite ramen while his mom opted for the Shoyu beef one. My daughter wanted to try their curry rice as she saw it had one with cheese and I told her to go for the slice of American Cheese cake since the Japanese milky rich style I know she'd like. To put it simply we were not only satisfied with the authentic food but were all delighted with our choices. Being Asian and local we of course sampled each other's choices so in one sitting we now have tried all their main fares. And again unanimously, with a happy belly, we all agreed that we've just got another family goto favourite that makes it so convenient for us. Thank you, Yoshinoya. We heart you.
I have always enjoyed a good dinner with my friend in this outlet. This outlet is manned by 1 malay guy but he is very fast to prepare the food. I also observed that he is very diligent and takes great pride in keeping the outlet clean.
