Our take: Tong Luck Economic Rice consistently receives feedback regarding its pricing, with multiple diners expressing surprise at the cost of their meals.

Common complaints highlight dishes like two small pieces of deep-fried chicken, one steamed egg, and one vegetable costing $5, or a single meat dish priced at $5.80, which some consider exorbitant for economic rice.

There are also reports of additional charges for most meat dishes, with even tofu being classified as a 'meat' item.

While the coffeeshop itself is newly renovated, the value proposition appears to be a significant concern for patrons, with one reviewer feeling 'scammed' and another calling it 'daylight robbery' for a $7.30 plate.

We'd advise caution and recommend confirming prices before ordering to avoid unexpected costs.

This is not a reliable everyday option given the consistent feedback on pricing.
