Been wanting to try this restaurant because I've been getting mixed comments about the food and my curiousity has been, well, piqued. Honestly, I haven't tried any of the branches and I guess there was just no opportunity. Until the time when my mommy and I got stuck in Toyota Commonwealth for hours waiting for our purchase (wink! wink!).All my mommy was talking about was food and how she has reached the point of being beyond hunger. I looked around the humongous Toyota showroom for any sustenance I may give her only to be back with a Nescafe hot coffee from the vendo machine. I didn't tell her about the employee canteen. Alam ko namang titingnan lang ako nun. At tatalikod.Then by 3pm, the purchase rolled and we rode it to our destination. website pointed us to Lido Cocina Tsina being the nearest (see? Opportunity!). We ordered Beef Ampalaya, Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet, Pancit Canton Guisado and Yangchow Fried Rice... Mucho! Yes, we ordered this much. And we were only a mother and son team. Go figure.I liked the Sweet and Sour Fish. It's not too sweet nor overly sour. And the color is not too red nor, horrors, pinkish. Both my mom and I didn't like the Beef Ampalaya. It's ginger's sharp taste was too powerful, way too overwhelming that hides the flavor of the beef and yes, would you believe even the Ampalaya's bitterness? It seemed that the cook had a wifey trouble before he left his house that he poured out his rage on the innocent, pungent spice.How about the service? One soft-spoken male server was assigned to us and was helpful and was able to answer, quite confidently, our questions. He just need a little fluffing and he's on his way to being a good waiter (from experience, it's better to start with servers like him... I don't normally hire waiters who are already haughty as early as the job interview).So, am I going back to Lido? Ask my mom. She's the one who got so busy asking the servers for their delivery flyers.

We're always a regular customer in Lido and we celebrated special occasions here. Food is delicious, service is good. Recommended already to friends and relatives and they have tried it and were satisfied.
