Yesterday, I ate at the LSQ Chinese Home Cuisine. The food served was delicious and prepared well. There were a lot of Chinese people that ate in this restaurant. I love their pancit canton very much, indeed the best that I ever tasted in my life! So eager to come back here!
If you want a cheap but authentic chinese cuisine, there is one right at the heart of Makati City. You'll be blown away with the delicious taste and generous amount of serving for each dish.
Will definitely order again
Excellent serving sizes. Authentic home-cooking taste. There's always Chinese eating there (at night) so that just adds to how legit it is. :)
One of the best hole-in-the-wall diners I've been too. The place serves hearty meals without breaking the bank!
My achi and I ordered xiao long bao, kuchai dumplings, spicy beef noodles and pork tripe. The dumpling and xlb wrappers were a bit too thick as compared to the one's I've had, but the two were well-stuffed with flavorful fillings. As for the beef noodles, one serving can be shared by two to three persons. The beef was tender and the soup tasted amazing with just the right amount of spices. The noodles were hand-pulled and cooked al dente.
But, my favorite among all our orders is the spicy PORK TRIPE. I can't put into words how delicious this dish is. It's like the spices were tangled into one amazing serving of pork innards and finely sliced zucchini!
PS: Since I'm into spicy dishes, I have high tolerance for spicy food. If you happen to have low tolerance for such, you might want to consider asking the staff to lessen the spice. Anyway, meals are best enjoyed when they suit your preference. Hehe :)
This was first chinese resto that i went to. Masarap yung food. Even the dandan noodles soup at a price of 60 pesos. It was worth it. Babalik at babalik tlga ako dito. 😊😍
Super great Chinese Foodie Experience! Reminds me of the spots in binondo but this one is in Makati! The noodle soups were all great I tasted all of them! Although medyo oily lang and food but it’s already expected.
Good food! I know it's pricey but gaaaaaah everything tastes good 😍 it looks normal because of the appearance of the shop but wow the food were amazing!
💕Date for Two: Pork with Kutchay Dumplings – P180, Home Style Beef Noodle Soup – P160, Spicy Dan Dan Noodles – P60
💌Total: P400
Overall: With the vast choices of hip restos in Poblacion, we still go back to the classic ones like LSQ Chinese Home Cuisine. It’s a small hole-in-the-wall restaurant beside the Great Western Hotel, a bit difficult to locate but trust us, it’s worth it. The dumplings are our fave ever since. Spicy Dan Dan Noodles are really, reallyy spicy. Even you have a high tolerance for spicy foods, it might not work for you. Best to ask to lessen the chili or, once served, just take out all the chilis you can spot. Beef Noodle is also good but next time, we might try the spicy version for additional flavor. The place is like an old house converted to a resto so please lower your expectations. And oh, they serve amazing XLBs too! 😉
Value for money: Definitely worth it!

Hot and sour soup, steamed chicken cooked twice pork and yang chaw rice! Yummy! Especially the steamed chicken! Another 5 star for a great customer service!
No frills no gimmicks place. Just good tasty food to fill you up. The price is not bad. I would have given this a 5 had the Spicy Chicken Cutlet been less boney.
Who would have thought a gem is hidden in the near the busy streets of Makati Avenue? If not for Zomato, we would never have known about the existence of this place.
Ambience – 3/5Don’t expect much. Like most authentic Chinese restaurants, its ambience is “homey”.
Service – 4/5
Hot and Sour Soup (PhP 220.00) – 4/5Just your common Maki Soup, hot, sour, and flavorful.
Sweet n Sour Pork (PhP 200.00) – 5/5My favorite Chinese dish since I was little. Their Sweet n Sour Pork was on point, breading is not thick, and you can taste a good balance of the sweetness and sourness of the dish. I enjoyed it so much that I was not able to take note if there was fat in it. Although in my opinion, the dish would improve if they’ll add some more bell peppers, onions, and carrots.
Assorted Pork n Beef Intestines in Casserole (PhP 395.00) – 5/5A very interesting and exotic dish! Full of flavor, it has a generous serving of pork and beef intestines, mixed with blood tofu, chili oils, and lots and lot of dried chilis.
Stewed Goat's Meat in Casserole (PhP 450.00) – 5/5One of the best goat dishes that I ever tried. The stew was soft and flavorful without the smell and the aftertaste that is commonly associated with goat dishes. Just be careful of not swallowing the small bones.
Pork and Kuchay Dumpling (PhP 180.00) – 4/5 One of the best dumplings that I’ve ever tasted. It’s even better than the variant of a popular restaurant in Binondo.
Other food that we tried:
Mapo Tofu (PhP 180.00) – 4/5
Yang Zhou Fried Rice (PhP 180.00) – 3.5/5
Spicy Fried Chicken Cutlet (PhP 195.00) – 4/5
Fried Green Beans w/ Ground Pork (PhP 180.00) – 3/5
