Not worth the hype. Tofu didn’t seem fresh/homemade. Many store-bought tofu tasted fresher/better. The savory tofu pudding was oily. Soy milk was average (couldn’t taste the soy bean). Service was bare minimum.
Delcious tofu pudding! I got the sweet tofu with raro balls, boba, grass jelly and brown sugar syrup. The bowl was loaded with tofu and toppings and a great value for the price!
Great little place! Not a ton of seating inside BUT there are a few tables to sit down and enjoy your food at, or you can easily take it to go and enjoy elsewhere! Super quick service, and such kind staff. I accidentally came in early (about 5 minutes before they officially opened) because the door was unlocked but they graciously served me despite my mistake. Nevertheless, Im so happy I stopped in because the food was OUTSTANDING. My order came out in literally a minute, piping hot, super fresh, and filled to the brim with delicious toppings. I got a small savory tofu and it was to die for. The small size was actually very big and for the price, I was shocked with how much food I received. 10/10 would definitely come back again!!
I got the savory pudding and was very impressed. Great mix of spicy and fermented toppings on silky tofu. The rice cakes were also so special! Chewy and sweet. I chose the white and ginger flavors. Highly recommend!
Fresh made tofu is just so smooth and the taste is incredible. Service is friendly. Atmosphere is clean and homey. I arrived before store opened but they are very welcoming. Store is very clean. Definitely will come again if I’m around the area!
Came here for the first time after having watched a bunch of vlogs recommending it, and I'm glad I did. I've never really had tofu much, let alone in a dessert, and I was pleasantly surprised.
Completely unsure of what combinations of toppings would go best with one another, I chose the Can't Go Wrong! with taro balls, red beans, and grass jelly and brown sugar syrup on the side to drizzle over the ingredients before eating. All I can say is the ingredients melded so well. The tofu was soft and creamy and the toppings gave the whole bowl a nicely added texture. The brown sugar syrup tied everything so well too and I almost wanted to ask for more because it added the right amount of sweetness. Fong On is a definite must try when you're in Chinatown. Delicious treats and excellent welcoming service from the staff.

This place has decent tofu pudding, but what impressed me more were the photos on the walls and the introduction to the history of the restaurant. It's heartening to see a family-owned establishment preserving traditional flavors. The service could be more welcoming, though. The shop is quite small, mainly for takeout, outdoor roadside dining, or enjoying the food at home. I recommend consuming it immediately by the roadside to ensure the best flavor.
