While the portions are considered on the smaller side, many regulars recommend ordering multiple servings to truly savor the experience. As noted by customer Samuel Wong, “I enjoyed the 鴨肉飯, although I should have ordered more since the portion wasn't big. Good flavor but would like more duck even if I needed to pay more.” This highlights a common sentiment among diners: while the dish may leave you wanting a bit more, the flavor is undeniably worth it.

“ When it comes to meat with rice, this is a GEM! Chiayi chicken rice tends to be dry and bland, braised pork rice is also on the oily side. But this! The rice is soaked with duck juices, it's moist but not soggy, all the while emitting a hint of herbal fragrance. It's either crazy good or we're crazy hungry, probably both. It's cheap too! ”
