2 /5 Jace Yan: After years of living in Eastwood, I finally had the chance to farewell a friend at Mr. Stonepot. It’s easy to see why the restaurant is always busy—the dishes are very tasty and reasonably priced.
However, the service experience was disappointing. Staff seemed overwhelmed and often ignored guests waving or calling for attention. It usually took catching the manager or waiting until someone served a nearby table to get assistance. The atmosphere inside is crowded and noisy, with tables packed tightly into the long, narrow layout. There’s often a long queue outside, adding to the sense of pressure. The bathroom was tiny and not well maintained, which discouraged guests from staying inside for long.
I also noticed that the waiting staff and even the cashier rarely smiled, which made the dining experience feel transactional rather than welcoming. Overall, while the food and price are commendable, the lack of hospitality and comfort means I cannot truly enjoy dining here.
