    Liangpi with sesame and chili oil *
    Imelda M.

    Bingz Crispy Burger was opened over 10 years ago by two Chinese IT programmers in Beijing. Today Bingz has over 140 outlets in Beijing and expanding rapidly it is a global success story. I tried the Signature Pork Crispy Burger and the Liangpi noodles* with sesame and chili oil. The soft chewy tenderness of the liangpi won me over. It was heavenly. The pork burger was meh. The bun was not fresh nor crispy, it seemed like it was old and sitting under a warmer. I would've preferred the bun to be freshly made and the meat to be warmer than cold. Underwhelming but it was edible. The Crispy Burger was invented 2,000 years ago during the Qin Dynasty. I've had plenty of great 肉夹馍, Chinese burgers in my lifetime, at small food stands, restaurants and fast food places, so while Bingz a popular place in a food court for tasty food, to me Bingz falls below the mark of the smaller restaurants that put more care into getting the food quality right.

    May 24, 2025 - I went to Bingz during their anniversary deal that was BOGO for their crispy burgers. I got an assortment of their burgers, almost one of each, and wonton soups. I really enjoyed them. Very crispy breading and a generous amount of filling. My favourites were probably the black pepper beef and BBQ mushroom.

    I was in the area with my kids and noticed they were offering free pumpkin cake pops as a Halloween event so we were able to get some. The cake pops were hot when we got them. They were very tasty, my kids loved them. I had also tried their burgers before and they were delicious.

    Heard about this place on social media and decided to check it out. Mall location in First Markham Place. Food (3.75/5) - the signature crispy burger is the staple. It's not bad... pork was cooked nicely and taste was not bad. Wasn't as keen on the flaky bun part. It's a novelty and gets stuck in your teeth easily! - smokin hot fries were quite good... good spice and flavour which you can control on your own. - side wonton soup was really weak... bland and small pieces Service (4/5) - friendly and reasonable turnaround Atmosphere (3.5/5) - pretty basic like any other quick service restaurant setup. Overall (3.75/5) - it's worth trying out to see what it's all about. Personally I prefer Hong Bo Burger inside the mall.

    The pork, and beef ones are SUPER packed with flavor! Don't miss out on their chicken nuggets too because they are extremely crispy on the outside, but they remain nice, and juicy on the inside :D Their poutine is a little salty for my liking but still overall tasty. As I only got takeout, I can't really comment on their ambiance but everything was packed well

    I have flagged heading over to Bingz Crispy Burger for a while. I didn't realize how long until I placed a takeout order and headed over to this eatery to pick it up. Bingz recently celebrated its two-year anniversary at this location. As usual, I don't hop on any bandwagon quickly. I noticed that Fantuan was offering a bit of a discount on Bingz's menu. I felt that it was time to get some takeout for dinner last week. I was in downtown Markham and placed my order there. I got the following items: - The signature sandwich and wonton soup combo - Chilli oil wontons My estimated pickup time was ten minutes. It was enough time for me to casually drive over. This eatery is at First Markham Place. It has its own main entrance, so you don't need to get lost in the mall itself. I found a parking spot fairly close to Bingz. I backed into the spot and walked in. The interior is cheerful. It's red and white, which reinforces the eatery's branding. There were many spots available to sit down and eat. Many staff members were huddled in a corner. There was a cake. It was a nice little celebration happening. I went to line up. There's one lineup to place an order. I noticed the pickup lineup and headed over there. I had the nicest woman help me. I indicated that I had a Fantuan order and rattled the number off while showing her the order on my app. She nodded and found my paper bag to her left. She handed my bag over and wished me a great day. I reciprocated and happily left with my grub. When I got home, I unpacked everything out of my paper bag and chowed down. I started with the wonton soup. I loved the broth. It wasn't salty, but was mild in flavour. It was perfect because the small pork wontons packed more flavour and were delicious. I also loved the scallions and wood ear. I'd get this soup again. The signature pork sandwich wowed me. The flakiness of Bingz's version of the bun was awesome. It was crispy and so good. The pork was well-seasoned and juicy. So good! I am still dreaming about getting this sandwich again. I perhaps went overboard with the wontons. I got the chilli oil wontons. They were awesome. The chilli oil isn't burn-your-tongue-off hot. There is some heat at first. However, it's more flavourful than spicy. I loved it. The pork wontons were yummy just like those in my soup. I didn't feel like I had overdosed on wontons. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I'm not sure why it took me so long to try Bingz's food. I'm so glad that I finally did. Everything that I ate was delicious. I can't wait to head back for more good eats. (167)

    Stopped by to see what all the buzz was about! The restaurant was super well lit and decorated with extensive seating. It's located in a large plaza but finding parking wasn't too difficult on weekday evening. I got The Signature which came out piping hot and fresh. The meat filling was tender and juicy but not too seasoned. I enjoyed the bing with vinegar and soy sauce which was a good contrast to the richness of the bing. The plum cold brew tasted great with the right amount of tang and herbal notes. It was not too sweet which is always appreciated. Overall, great concept and tasty food! They offered me a free item if I posted a 5 star review on google at the check out counter (before I heven received or tasted the food) which makes me feel a bit uncomfortable (hence, -1 star)

    Came in on a Sunday at 6:11pm and ordered a signature pork crispy burger and a beef poutine. It was ready by 6:18pm, which is pretty fast. I've had the black pepper beef before and I think now I like that much better than the pork. It's just a different flavor due to the seasonings. Still loving the flaky and crispy bun. The beef poutine was large. Definitely shareable. Lots of meat, gravy and cheese curds over fries. On my next visit I have to try their noodle dishes.

    Spicy nuggets
    Pauline W.

    This restaurant is pretty busy during lunch hours Ordered an A3 from the menu Signature burger combo with drink and Liangpi with sesame sauce also for extra $5.99 added a spicy nugget Service is pretty quick, they packed everything and call out the number Seating is casual with a drop off counter for trays and there's a staff to clean table afterwards Located at First Markham Place, lots of parking

    Red and white modern space
    Cin C.

    I imagine this is what happens when you take chinese food and give it the In N Out treatment. You get a bright modern red and white space that serves noodles as fast food. Instead of hamburgers, you get a crispy bun stuffed with meat and instead of fries you get some chili oil noodles. We came during a slight rush of people, so had to wait 10 minutes for our food. They have a ticketing system and a tracker board so you can ensure you don't miss your order. The signature beef bun was really good. Light and crispy on the outside but stuffed full with beef. There were previous complaints about it being dry, but ours was moist and had very good flavor. The chili noodles unfortunately tasted mostly of oil and without much flavor. I liked the texture of the noodles, but with so much clili oil I would have expected some kick.

    I've probably come here way too many times, it's just so good! The restaurant is large and spacious, lots of seating and they have staff come around to clean tables quite often. You have the options of ordering via website (scan QR code) or at the counter. You can expect about 5-10 mins wait for your food during peak hours, but food comes out pretty fast off-peak. As for the food, burgers are just amazingly crispy every time, and actually retains the crisp even when you leave it overnight. The basics are defiantly nice staples, but I definitely recommend upgrading to their not-so-basic flavours, as the fillings have more sauce and therefore a bit less dry-feeling. All their side dishes are also winners, they're great simple pairings and I'd definitely recommend you give the savory tofu a try! The spicy version is not very spicy at all, but packed full of savory flavour! Their HK milk tea is a surprisingly good too! It's a very well-rounded milk tea that isn't overly bitter if you're not into that. I think overall, the palette has definitely been made to have wider appeal, as nothing is overly spicy or strong. I strongly recommend anyone coming to try this, the burgers are great and an easy choice for anyone who wants to dip their toes into northern style Chinese food.

    signature beef
    Ivon W.

    Intelligent service (yelp) say this place is highly recommended. So we came by to try it. Busy! Glad we ordered online. Non-stop flow of people. Ordered: signature beef: #3 favorite. this is the recommended item on the menu. very light and flaky crust. but beef is BIT dry (not juicy as i hope). But it has good flavor though. wonton soup: my #2 favorite. i'm NOT big fan of wonton soup. never like it in any reataurant. but thought to give it a try based on yelper's review. whoa....love it!!! it actually taste homey. it also gives me inspiration to cook it at home (comfort food). the chicken broth has seaweed, egg, and goji berry. goji berry really makes the difference. it gives that subtle sweetness. overall very good combination of flavour (umami, sweet, light broth) fried chicken: least favorite. nth special. but its good to mix it with the dried chili seasoning. ordered it bc it's recommended item on the menu. red date soy milk:my #1 favorite!! this is my 2nd time coming here. but dont remember which 'pastry' i ordered on my 1st visit. however, what makes me come back is the red date soy milk!! now what makes me go back is red date soy milk PLUS wonton soup...(and might as well try other 'signature' dish). cheers!

The use of traditional elements, paper-cut window designs, red Spring Festival couplets, old-style newspaper wall coverings, and exposed brick adds a strong sense of nostalgia. It feels immersive and intentional, almost like stepping into a countryside home in Dongbei rather than a typical restaurant. The décor isn't fancy, but it's rich in cultural detail and warmth, perfectly matching the hearty, comforting style of Northeast Chinese cuisine. The space is unique and perfect for taking photos. The food here is very generous. We ordered the 4-person set with two side pots. Tomato Braised Beef Brisket and Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms and the portions were huge. Both pots arrived steaming hot and filled to the brim, clearly meant for sharing. The braised beef was rich and hearty, while the chicken pot was comforting and full of flavor, making it perfect for group dining or cold weather meals. Combined with the rustic, traditional décor, it really feels like authentic Northeast Chinese comfort food. The food and atmosphere were excellent, though the service was a bit lacking. Prices are reasonable for the generous portion sizes and the unique restaurant décor.

If you're looking to broaden your palette of Chinese food, this place should be on your list.

I was hoping to find something special on the menu. The Peking duck caught my eye at around $70, but then I discovered that almost everything else was extra--lettuce wraps, stir-fried duck meat, fried rice, and soup. By the time you add the extras, the bill is easily another $50 or more, bringing the total to well over $120. We decided to pass, and judging from the dishes we did order, that was probably the right decision. The hot and sour soup had plenty of heat and tang but lacked depth of flavor and was under-seasoned for my taste. Fortunately, we only ordered a small bowl. The deep-fried tofu was bland and forgettable. The stir-fried shrimp was acceptable but nothing special. The biggest disappointment was the sweet and sour pork. I specifically asked the server to make sure the pork was crispy, but it arrived soft and lumpy rather than light and crunchy. Even the complimentary red bean dessert soup was watery and lacked flavor. Our bill came to about $104 for two people. For the quality of the food, I didn't feel it offered good value. Sadly, after several disappointing visits, I don't think we'll be returning.

Plenty of seating for different sized groups, and the walls are lined with either wine, cuts of meat or tanks filled with various sea creatures. For dinner, we always have to order the lobster and steak combo. The steak has consistently been a flavourful medium rare (to our preference) and there is so much meat from these lobsters! I can't pick which way I like the lobster cooked more - steamed or wok fried.. both are delicious. For additional dishes, you can't go wrong with the short beef ribs and the pea shoots with king oyster mushrooms are a great option if you're trying to add veggies to a meat-heavy meal.

When we arrived, he insisted that we did not have a reservation even after we showed our confirmation, and, instead of apologizing for what appeared to be the restaurant's booking system error, he tried to lecture us about how certain reservation websites do not allow large-group bookings. Rather than taking responsibility or working professionally toward a solution, his attitude was rude, dismissive, and completely inappropriate. Fortunately, the lady working with him was kind, professional, and genuinely tried to explain the situation and find a way to accommodate us. She deserves recognition for her efforts. Our group was in town for an eight-day conference with more than 3,000 attendees. Because of this experience, this restaurant has unfortunately been added to the "not recommended" list for this annual event. When restaurants host business travelers, the way guests are treated matters just as much as the quality of the food. Unprofessional treatment of customers and business partners can damage relationships and cost businesses significant opportunities. To anyone considering this restaurant: the food is excellent, but if you're planning an important business dinner or any special occasion, be aware that the wrong interaction at the front desk could ruin your evening. Great food alone cannot make up for poor management and unprofessional customer service.

The lid on my shredded potato salad wasn't on properly and the sauce leaked through my Fantuan bag. The food gets five stars. Sadly, the lid on my potato salad wasn't securely on the container. I had my food in my insulated bag, so the sauce leaked into the Fantuan bag and my insulated bag. Luckily, my car was fine. As a result, my rating is four stars. I wanted to try a new eatery. I looked at my Fantuan app and noticed He Bei Chinese Cuisine. It had dumplings and snacks that I enjoy, so I said yes to placing a dinner order from this eatery. I ordered these items: - Pork and chive steamed dumplings (large has 14 dumplings) - Tea eggs - Shredded potato salad On Fantuan, when you purchase $15 worth of food, you get the shredded potato salad for a cent. Deal! After placing my order near my home, I drove over to this eatery. The drive was ten minutes. I was given an estimated time of fifteen minutes. It was ready in ten minutes. I had no problem finding this eatery. There was plenty of parking. I pulled into a spot and walked in. I saw the Yubu sign. My heart sank, as I loved the Korean tofu pockets from this joint. I liked seeing places to sit down and eat at He Bei. Nice! A woman behind the counter came over. I said that I had a Fantuan order. She talked to me in Mandarin. I don't understand it, but we were fine communicating with each other in our languages. She pointed out the blue Fantuan bag on the table behind me. I thanked her and wished her a nice day. She said thanks right back. I put my food in my insulated bag. With the leak, I managed to launder the Fantuan bag and clean my insulated bag. After I cleaned up, I had dinner at home. The food was amazing and filling! I loved the shredded potato salad. Sure, a lot of the sesame-soy sauce was gone. However, it tasted yummy. It was worth the cent! The steamed pork and chive dumplings were so good. I didn't dunk them in soy sauce. The filling had so much moisture that I felt like I was eating soup dumplings. The filling had yummy flavour and the dumplings were steamed to perfection. Excellent! You can buy frozen dumplings from this place. I'll need to do it. The tea eggs were the perfect snack while streaming hockey games. I peeled the shells off both of them. The eggs were cracked to allow the amazing soy-based sauce to marinate and get into the eggs. Delicious! I'm a fan. I'll take a closer look at the lids on my food next time. I'm glad that I put food in my insulated bag. It saved cleaning my car's upholstery! (59)

Service was what you would expect from a Chinese seafood restaurant. Overall the meal was good, for me and a few others at the table the star of the show was actually the fish. The lobster while impressive when they brought it out was not as flavorful as one would have expected. And same with the king crab legs - my favorite have been the ones I've had in SF. Was interesting to come and experience it but I wouldn't come back. I prefer quality food over an IG-moment.

    Fishman Lobster Clubhouse Restaurant on Finch Avenue East in Scarborough serves an unforgettable…read moreseafood feast, though you will need plenty of patience. The establishment is famous for its iconic, towering mountains of deep-fried Hong Kong-style lobster and giant Alaskan king crabs.Without a doubt, the food is exceptional. The seafood is extraordinarily fresh--pulled straight from massive surrounding glass tanks--and prepared to absolute perfection with their signature Maggi sauce and garlic toppings. However, the major downside here is the notoriously slow and chaotic service. Due to the massive crowds, servers can be hard to flag down, orders take a long time to arrive, and the staff often feels rushed or inattentive. Despite the frustrating wait times and subpar service, the spectacular flavors and theatrical presentation make it a worthwhile destination for patient seafood lovers.Watch the massive lobster towers being prepared and served fresh at this iconic spot

    New Century will feed a large group. Their lobster, Dungeness crab, and sea bass combo for eight…read more($798) would satisfy ten or twelve. The individual New Century slow boiled soup is hardest to share but secure some empty bowls and you can divide the hefty portion. In the winter, there's a silkiness to the piping hot consommé that sooths a dry throat and has an umami essence infused with abalone, ginseng, and pork. There's plenty to choose from in the house signature combo platter including roasted duck, soy sauce chicken, BBQ pork, pork slices, and seaweed salad. Saving my stomach for the later dishes, I had a taste of the duck (a good start with crispy skin) and BBQ pork (satisfactory and well flavoured). With the generous portion of chicken in the combo platter, the slow cooked chicken with abalone broth seemed like overkill. I've never been a huge fan of this dish that's served cold since I prefer chicken hot. Still, I understand it's the jelly layer between the skin and meat that people enjoy. And to be fair, the chicken was tender, and New Century certainly didn't skimp on the ginger and scallion oil. For those who tend to fill-up before the "main dishes", the stars of the combo arrive mid-meal. The stir-fried Vancouver crabs with silver fish in HK style spicy sauce needs to be eaten at arrival as the crunchy coating is best straight from the fryer. And despite not looking spicy, the dish has a light heat that permeates in the background. Additionally, the crab was fresh and meaty, cooked well so it remained delicately flakey. The amount of sweet and sticky sauce used in the stir-fried lobsters with scallion in Maggie sauce was well balanced, lightly covering the crustaceans. Both lobsters were substantial; even after eating many pieces, we still had plenty of leftovers. This is a long review head to Gastro World for the rest.

    We first noticed this restaurant because the name in Chinese is "like to be with you". It's Friday…read morethat after my appointment around the area. They have different special offers each day from Monday to Friday. We ordered the special Linyi Style Stir Fried Chicken on Friday. And we also ordered Boiled Basa Fish with pickled Cabbage & Green Pepper. They were pretty traditional Chinese styles. The white rice or brown rice both can have as much as we could. That's good for men. We both like here, but they don't offer specials during the weekends. But they do have other special packages, just a bit different. And they also have the membership that we could collect points and then we could use the points to get drinks or different snacks or dishes.

    New sauerkraut fish soup spot in Markham…read more A chain from asia that has finally made it's way to Markham. They are known for their sauerkraut fish soup that comes with unlimited self serve rice on the side. Servers were attentive, spacing of the seating and tables were tight. Often times people kept brushing up against my chair while getting up to go get their rounds of rice. Although not a deal breaker, was annoying while trying to enjoy your food. The portions are big enough for 2 if you get a large, but since it was our first time we wanted to try 2 different soups. Here's what we got: Chicken wings 4/5 - Came out raw the first time after we bit into it. But quickly flagged a server to let them know how this issue. They brought us a new one shortly after that was perfectly cooked, juicy and crispy on the outside. Laotan boiled fish with pickled cabbage and chili 4/5 - Their number one classic so we had to try. It's sour and spicy with the right amount of kick to it. Basa fish filets were also tasty. Came out luke warm. Princess's tomato fish 4/5 - Packed with tomato flavour. Savoury and paired well with the basa fish filet. Came with bean curd noodles as well. Came out luke warm. Easily would be a five star review if both soups that we got came out piping hot rather than lukewarm. Regardless, a great spot for a quick in and out meal.

    Great food, friendly service. What more could you ask for…read more The decor is amazing, really feels special compared to the boring decor of other Chinese restaurants. The portions are large and great for sharing. If you can handle spicy, grab a friend that can also handle it and you're in for a good time here. Note that this place only accepts cash and debit.

    If you like spice this is the place for you. Located at the commerce gate complex there is…read moretypically a wait to get a table here. Wait list is old school...someone writes your name and number in a notebook and you are called when your table is ready. The interior is reminiscent of the old school taverns you see in those old Chinese movies where the traveller has spent days walking or on a horse and comes upon a tavern where the interior is all wooden tables and benches. Dining style and dishes are all family style. You order a couple of dishes and then add rice. Spice level can be adjusted and even at 'less' the heat level was high. Definitely generous use of Szechwan peppercorns! Food is very flavourful and depending on preference some might find the oil level high. The clientele is mainly Mandarin speaking and if you are Asian they will immediately communicate in Mandarin with you but I did see the staff switch to English where needed. Service was patient and attentive.
