Reviews of Nugget Restaurant Ltd (Painter)

Blah, Yuk,.....Worst Chinese food ever. Had the Lemon chicken. The order came out quickly, that was the first clue that makes you wonder, not to sure it was chicken, dark meat (maybe turkey) it was dry and looked like it had been sitting for a while. It definitely not fresh, some pieces were hot and others luke warm, which tells me it was microwaved and definitely not sauteed. Than a lemon sauce partially poured over. My stomach turned for awhile after this left more than half on the plate, good thing I did. Came in at 7:30 pm so it wasn't like it was late. One ⭐ for food . Staff was friendly.

There is a large selection on the menu of both western and Chinese food. The fried rice is to die for and they have the best French fries I’ve had in Canada. The staff is very friendly.

Celeste Addison

Great food, Chinese and Western. Had combo #, chicken fried rice, chicken chow mein and pork. Didn't have large pieces of chicken in the chow mein, but talked to waitress and they topped out up straight away. Great customer service.Very clean, well presented.good prices. Not licensed yet, but in the process.

Hayley Rodriguez

Great selection on the menu of authentic Chinese dishes. Food was fresh and well prepared. Homey, friendly ambience. This is a great choice for dinner in Watson Lake.

No better way to wet your whistle ans feed your mug after a 1100 mile stint behind the wheel.

Devon Flynn

I had orange peel chicken. There were bones and tendons (inedible pieces) in the chick n. The chicken pieces were dry, and there was barely any sauce.

Gabriel Alden Hull

Very delicious food and friendly service. Highly recommended for travelers who needs some warm food after a long way drive!

Abraham Van Bibber

Food was just ok. There were ants and I noticed them crawling on me just as I finished my meal, gross!

paul dochmaschewsky

I usually don't leave reviews, but this restaurant is an exeption. I had the best tofu of my LIFE here. Trust me, I've had a lot of tofu before, but this one was just beyond sensational. If you're from the Yukon, Alaska, Northern BC or just Canada in general, trust me, a trip to the "Nugget Restaurant" is absolutely worth it.

Ellen Sebastian

Great food, good prices, and employees are crazy funny.

Harrison Alger

We we're seated, ordered and had our food in front of us within 30 minutes. The staff was very friendly. The restaurant was clean and very unique, from its original fixtures to it's imaginative place mats. Fair price for a large quantity of delicious food.

martin torres ruiz

Expensive food, cheap taste. Meh.

Alexandra Pierce

First off It was overpriced, the wings we had was dry, like I’m talking dry dry ( hope they do better). And I also found a piece an egg shell in my fried rice????. I was going down on it then ???? eggshell. Disappointed ☹️because I was really enjoying it.

Michael T Frantes

Great place for Chinese Cuisine. Friendly service!

Rebecca “Becky” Hicks

The waitress was friendly and asked about allergy concerns when I was unsure about my order. Good portion sizes too.

Steven Mansour

Same great food, same awesome service. We ordered pick and were sitting in our car waiting for them to finish, my husband was just going to see if it was done and they awesome waitress brought our order right to our car for us.

Excellent food and friendly service! We had wonton soup and friend rice. Both were outstanding. Good wok breath on the fried rice, it was equally delicious as leftovers.

Bagheera Austriker

I love the beef sticks and combo number 2 .

周家瑋（Jeff Chou）

I really enjoyed the meal I had at the restaurant. Service was prompt and friendly. The owner was especially nice to talk with, and the family run business was a nice stop in the Yukon.

Sandy Richardson

I was surprised. The food was really good.

Ryan McGuire

Good eats. Great location. Fall hours open until 10pm.

Nora Cudazzo

Like the old look of the restaurant. Everyone is friendly. It was nice having a hot meal of tasty noodles after a long road trip.

스ᄌᄋ

Decent food. Kinda pricey. Good beers.

Miriam Yang (quyksilver)

The Nugget has good service and offers a variety of food. It's the only place in town that offers Chinese food. Like most places in Watson Lake it has character, but is older and could use a bit of a remodeling update. However, it's worth the stop in. It can host large and small groups.

Bonnie Barnetson

Good food good portions good service

Leslie Gonder

Fantastic food and service

Krystal Toney

Service was slow, food was not great. I ordered chicken and I'm honestly not sure what I actually ate...

Georgina Worsley

Loved the grilled cheese and onion rings. Not too greasy.

James Willows

Delicious Chinese food, and personalized and prompt attention

terry lepretre

Won't be eating here again! All our food (Chicken balls, Chowmain and buffalo burger) was dry and seemed to have been reheated many times before. We couldn't even chew thru the chicken. Told waitress about that, she just nodded and moved on.

Kai Dong

So delicious. I ate two giant servings and then I left a nugget in our downstairs bathroom. Didn’t even flush it down so I could go back and look at it later.

Charles Peregoodoff

Very friendly service. Food was good. Reasonably priced.

Lyn Metcalfe

i had fried chicken rice - corn, peas and chicken were completely tasteless, they only taste I could identify was the oil. Avoid if you can!

Anthony Hogue

My favorite place in watson lake.

Ariel Rogers

Great Chinese food at a good price

Ben Meszaros

Was very surprised to actually find a decent Chinese restaurant all the way out here. Had the fried tofu which was very good, although could use more vegetables served with it. A few non-meat choices as well as lots of American Diner food choices, which others seemed to be enjoying. Fair prices too.

Gary Payne

Didn't order Chinese foid, but it was goid. Large servings.

Frank Lockerbie

A okay

Ty Kon

Both my dad and I had the clubhouse with fries and Gravy. The Gravy was pretty decent. The menu here has quite a few Chinese food items and then some diner type food in the back of the menu. I would stop here again if I was stopping in Watson Lake. Service was decent. Pricing was reasonable.

Theresa Colton

Good service good food surprisingly for the time of year and day we showed up dec 26 would recommend fish and chips plus gravy was pretty good. Lemon chicken is a mix between deep fried chicken wings and sweet and sour pork

Frankie “SushiToyota”

Food is pretty good, service is good, servers are pleasant. Lots of parking, wheelchair accessible, coffee shop plus dining room.

Tim Lalor

This place has the worst Chinese food I’ve ever had. I got combo #1 which has chicken chow mein, sweet and sour pork, and fried rice. The chow mein noodles had no taste yet still managed to make me spit them out. The pork was squishy and didn’t taste anything like sweet and sour. And the fried rice tasted like the stuff they gave out for high school cafeteria lunch. It’s pretty bad when you screw up rice. After, we had to go to the local grocery store and buy microwave lasagna so we wouldn’t be hangry for the rest of the night. Maybe we got the wrong things on the menu, but this place was pretty disappointing.

LR G

Good service and good food

William B

Fast, tastes good

Corey M

Decent wonton soup for the far north. Chicken wings I'd pass on next time.

meibol macdougall

We enjoyed our meal

Kelly Paterson

The best curry chicken I can remember having!

Jeanne Appel

After 11 hours of driving we stopped here for dinner. So nice after some of the places we've stopped at. Very clean, food was fresh and lots of veggies, server was polite and lemon water served with a straw.

gary Bulley

Usually I don't like those westernized Chinese food. This one was recommended by our hotel owner and since it pandemic period not much choice. So we tried. It's so good. Clean, very tasty! Highly recommended.

Danny Rai

Ordered beef and broccoli, was asked if I wanted rice - it costs extra! When food was delivered - fast and hot - it was more like broccoli and beef, as there was very little beef. The sauce and whole meal was totally tasteless and bland, even after I added soy and duck sauce.

Lauri Kauppinen

The best Chinese food in all of Canada hands down! Their Curry Noodle Bowl is to die for!!! I need their food back in my life like yesterday!

Jeffery Daniels

Fresh food great staff!!

Mingyang Gao

We were told the food here was delicious. What they neglected to mention to us were the portion sizes. They were huge! They easily gave me veggies on my crispy spicy tofu. Girlfriend had to share her plate and we still ate leftovers that night. The decor is kind of what you expect. Polite and friendly staff. If you're hungry after a long drive, this is a good spot to stop

brandon allen

Great staff good food

Toby Young

Good typical fare and nice sized portions. Wasn't fond of the red/orange sauce.
