Soup
Alex C.

This is a Hong Kong-style café in Markham that serves large portions at quite a low price. If you order a meal, the food comes with a soup (you can usually choose between a tomato-based "Russian Borscht" soup or a cream soup), and you also get a drink. I tried the curry fish balls, the baked pork chop, and the Portuguese chicken rice. Overall, the food was good but not amazing. The curry fish balls can be skipped as I found the sauce too watery. The soup was a bit on the salty side. The best dishes were probably the baked ones--I'd recommend the baked pork chop, although there were a few fatty pieces. I also ordered a plate of vegetables as an add-on for an extra $1.75. The portion here was quite small, so I'd probably skip it next time. I'd rate this place somewhere between a 3 and a 4. The service can be poor, especially if you don't speak Cantonese, but it's fast, and the food comes out quickly. The seating area is generally a bit cramped and not the most comfortable. It's a good place to get take out. There is seating for around 20 people in the restaurant.

Ox tongue in Portuguese sauce

Gave this restaurant another shot the other day and enjoyed 1 of the 3 dishes purchased. The other 2 was an issue with portion. We ordered the classic HK pork chop baked in tomato sauce and it was delish! Then the ox tongue in Portuguese sauce and the Hainanese chicken rice. The ox tongue was the most measly-portioned meal I have ever seen, though it was flavorful. One extra chunk would have made a difference when the customer sees a fuller portion when they open the container. The Hainanese chicken also was tiny, the smallest wrve had compared to other HK cafes, the taste was ok.

Got some grub thru Ubereats and wanted to try something new. Decided to go for Blue Ocean cafe. I ordered the Malaysian chicken curry w/rice and the AAA New York strip loin, orders came with drinks and I got a cold hk milk tea and a hot hk milk tea. Chicken curry was surprisingly good! A little spicy and the tender pieces of chicken left me wanting more. The steak portion was huge and was actually tender. Didn't care for the pepper sauce on it, the fried rice was okay. Would go back again.

Classic Hong Kong cafe food. Something for everyone. There always seems to be a lunch rush here with wait times not being too bad. A part of 2 probably waited around 15 minutes for a table. They have the staples here for Hong Kong cafe food like baked pork chop rice, fried flat rice noodles, lemon teas and milk teas. We saw a sign that cream soup is back so obviously had to get some to try as we start our meal. Got the cream soup and tomato soup which were both great and had such a good contrast in flavour switching from soup to soup. Had to get the staple of tomato baked pork chop with spaghetti. It was really good and came out super quick! Saucey and meaty and just what I needed. Also got the the beef fried flat rice noodle which was also very tasty and came quickly. Service is super quick and food comes out at lightning speed which is impressive. Come give it a try as there's something for everyone here.

came here for a lunch and got their double cheese ham and bacon penne. It was about $16 before taxes for the meal and tasted pretty good! It was super cheesy (as expected) and pretty filling overall. Really enjoyed it and could see myself coming back!

This place used to be not bad but lately very disappointing. Service is decent but the food quality has gone down a lot. I ordered my usual hk cafe dish: baked ox tongue on rice. There was a piece of hair stuck to a tomato piece in the sauce :( For my set drink, I asked for an iced lemon tea less sweet and I swear the drink was sweeter than normal... The portion of the rice is good but very few pieces of ox tongue. It also came just warm and not hot. For the same price at other Hong Kong cafes, the portions are better. We will not be coming back again anytime soon.

baked pork chop rice w/ cream and tomato sauce

It's a typical HK cafe located in New Kennedy Square. The parking lot is massive. There's not a lot of seats inside. I was deciding between hainanese chicken rice and a malaysian curry dish. Ultimately, the tv screen on the wall swayed me to the curry rice. Malaysian curry chicken steak w/ rice: The curry was tasty and the chicken was tender. I do wish they gave me a bigger chicken steak though. If I go to Silvery Bay Cafe in Richmond Hill or Cafe Le Majestik in Scarbs, I'm definitely getting more protein in my meal. Also, I do wish the curry came out more piping hot. It was kinda lukewarm when it arrived tbh. Baked pork chop rice w/ cream and tomato sauce: My friend said the pork chop was moist but again, the sauces on top of the rice could've been steaming hot as opposed to lukewarm. The added cheese was a nice touch though. Hokkaido ramen w/ beef and enoki mushroom: I warned my friend not to order ramen at an HK cafe but she refused to listen to me. Anyways, she said this dish was not that great (go figure) but she did say the beef tasted nice and tender. The drinks that are included w/ your meal are on the larger side which is nice (almost makes me wanna add an extra star) but they also aren't mixed that well. Would I return? Sure. But I'm definitely not in a rush to come back and try the other items. In my personal opinion, there are a lot of HK cafes better than this one but it gets a solid pass.

It's a quite decent HK cafe and the meal includes soup and a drink. We ordered the Hainanese Chicken Rice and loved it because the chicken was tender and very smooth. However, the baked pork chop rice wasn't what I expected. It was barely baked and there wasn't a lot of cheese on top. The good thing is the meal comes with soup and a drink. The space isn't too large, and somehow the tables are quite close to each other. We went during weekday lunchtime. It was super busy. The service was really quick. You don't have to wait very long for the food, so we just ate and left after finishing.

Another gem of a HK café embedded in a plaza full of restaurants. On the northern side of the plaza are a set of small HK cafes, Blue Ocean café is on of these shops. I find that this shop in particular excels in stir fried (dry fried) dishes as the wok flavour is deeply embedded into these dishes. I would highly recommend getting a noodle or rice dish that takes advantage of this. Everything else was decent, but the fried rice was wok solid. Also another plus is that this afternoon tea menu was one of the most extensive ones I've seen in the GTA. Salted fish fried rice - Wok flavour, a heterogenous amount of textures (rice grains, chicken, eggs). Would definitely recommend. My only complaint is that the salted fish pieces are too small or amount too little. Stir fried rice noodle and beef - another dish that uses the wok flavour. Beef was nice texture, rice noodle were flavourful with the wok and soy sauce. Bean sprouts to add texture. HK French Toast - an afternoon tea classic, but there is better to be had. The outside was not as crispy as I'd like and only came with a small container of whipped butter (I guess that's personal preference). Syrup felt like a molasses + syrup mix that gave it a more viscous texture, which is a plus. Beef brisket + tendon soup with noodles - another classic hk café dish. Brisket and tendons were delicious. Soup was flavourful. Milk tea - abit too creamy for me, overpowering the tea flavour, would get another drink during afternoon tea.

HK style milk tea

If u like HK style restaurants then this place is a must try. The ladies are nice and polite and you will get your service quick. The food is great for this type of cuisine. The restaurant is not the cleanest or fanciest but what do u expect for these amazing prices or value. For my family of 4 we ordered 3 lunch specials for 50$ that's with tax and tip and we had leftovers as well.

Baked Portuguese Chicken Rice
Arnold L.

Out of all the Hong Kong-style diners in the Greater Toronto Area, I can always count on Blue Ocean Cafe for their consistency. Just like any diner, all their lunch and dinner menu options come with a bowl of soup. Whether it's the daily Chinese soup, Russian Borstch, you defintely have to try the Cream Soup that is offered only on weekends! It's not your ordinary cream of chicken soup as they are generous with the amount of cheese and seasoning that may have you ask for a second bowl. The baked rice/spaghetti dishes are quite solid. I do recommend trying the Portuguese Baked Chicken Rice where the sauce is elevated with the use of crushed peanuts to thicken the sauce and for more of a nuttier flavour. The Hainanese Chicken Rice is decent as well as the chicken is nice and tender to pair well with the aromatic rice. Overall, Blue Ocean Cafe is a great no-frills spot to get your comfort food fix without breaking the bank!

C L.

Looking for some Hong Kong style comfort food? Try Blue Ocean. My usual "test" for legit-ness is the Baked Pork Chop Rice and they certainly do it right. The base has to be egg fried rice to give it fragrance, the tomato sauce can't be overly sweet, the pork chop also can't be too fat and it needs to be baked with some cheese to round up the dish and for that cheese pull effect. Service was good, our server was nice and made chit chat, but know that when they are busy, their only focus is to service fast! The seatings are a little tight, so you might be shoulder to shoulder with the next table, but considering most people don't stay for a long time, it doesn't bother me.

Quick service, descent price, and tastes good. Their creamy soup is back too! I've ordered from them via UberEats many times for their breakfast specials that includes drinks, and finally got to dine in this evening to tryout their dinner. Consistent quality!

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.

Beyond the immersive stew, the restaurant shines with large portions of classic Dongbei dishes and flawless, homemade dumplings.

Service is attentive, with staff expertly managing the stew and adding fresh cornbread dough to the pot's sides, which steams to perfection.

Scallions, cucumber, hoisin sauce completed each wrap which highlighted the duck. Definitely the best traditional Peking Duck preparation I've had in a very very long time. The remains of the duck were used for make a duck fried rice and duck soup, again both were amazing.

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)

So we ordered Maggi Lobster (~3lbs) for $34/lb, and stir fried beef with Chinese broccoli (gai lan). The lobster was cooked perfectly, with the Maggi sauce not being too salty. They definitely gave us all the pieces of the 3lbs lobster. The gai lan had a bitter aftertaste, which is common for this vegetable. I wished they had a way to get rid of that. They were generous with the amount of beef and was well marinated. The cut wasn't that great, but that is to be expected. I don't think they added much MSG or at least used good quality ones, as we did not feel overly thirsty later in the evening. They give free daily soup and dessert. What we were most impressive was with the service. The waiters were very attentive, changing our plates twice during our 1ish hour meal. The also gave us wet wipes and more napkins without us requesting it. They even offered us additional soup, which we declined as we were quite full.

We ordered 9 dim sum dishes, one be Roasted Pig Mixed Cold Jellyfish, which was $23.80. I had the idea that it would be a fair portion. When it came, I was shocked, it was only 6 pieces of Roasted Pig. When I spoke with the manager about the portion size, he commented "for that price it is fair". There was not apologies and walked away, nor was it written on the menu. If I had known it was only 6 pieces (size of your index and middle finger put together). I would not have ordered it. If you want to have Roasted Pig, you can get better deals else where. Also, ordered Marinated Chicken Feet for $13.98, when it came to table, it was also a disappointment, part of the chicken feet was dark in colour, not even sure if it was even edible or not. Another dim sum dish that I have order was the steamed chicken with fish maw. The chicken was okay, but there was only two small pieces of fish maw, (the size of each piece was 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch). The order 6 dim sum dishes that was order was mediocre, tasted better from other Dim Sum restaurant. When I received the bill for the meal it came out to be $119.50, they even had included the tip. They didn't even give me an option weather a tip was even worthy. I will definitely not be returning to this place. I definitely do not recommend anyone to come to this restaurant. I would consider blacklisting this restaurant. It's simply deceiving customers. 今天去一家新裝修的點心店吃午飯,真是太失望了。他們為我們安排的桌子緊鄰外門,進進出出的人絡繹不絕。冷風直吹,我們甚至得跟領位員/經理說能不能加個隔板擋風。我們點了九道點心,其中一道是烤乳豬配涼拌海蜇,價格是23.8美元。我以為分量應該挺足的。結果端上來的時候,我大吃一驚,烤乳豬隻有六塊!我跟經理說了分量的問題,他居然說「這個價錢算合理」。他既沒有道歉,也沒有在菜單上寫明,就直接走開了。如果我知道只有六塊(大概食指和中指並排那麼大),我肯定不會點這道菜。想吃烤乳豬的話,去別的地方一定能找到更划算的。我還點了13.98美元醃漬的雞爪,端上來後也很失望,雞爪有一部分顏色發黑,我甚至懷疑它能不能吃。我點的另一道點心是魚肚蒸雞,雞肉還可以,但是魚肚只有兩小塊(每塊只有半英寸見方)。我點的這六道點心味道平平,不如其他點心店的好吃。結帳時,帳單竟然高達119.50美元,還包含了小費。他們甚至都沒問我是否該給小費。我絕對不會再來這家店了。我絕對不推薦任何人來這家餐廳。我會考慮把這家餐廳封鎖。他們簡直就是在欺騙顧客。

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.

If you break it down, it's actually such a good deal: the snakehead upgrade is usually +$3 each and their handcrafted drinks run around $6. No extra charge for any of that with this combo, so... why not? I got the scallion pickled cabbage fish soup (mild spice) and my friend went for the Laotan boiled fish (a bit spicier). For the snack, we picked half Taiwanese sausage and half glutinous rice cake to get both savoury and dessert vibes. When the bowls came out, they looked huge, but the portion was kinda deceiving... it's a very wide, shallow bowl, so the amount of actual soup wasn't as generous as it looked. For a fish soup restaurant, I definitely expected a deeper bowl. But the fish itself was fresh with that nice bouncy texture, plus vermicelli and a solid amount of pickled veggies. They also have a self-serve rice station with both white rice and multigrain rice. The rice cookers even have little signs showing when a new batch is cooking, which I thought was cute and convenient. Overall, flavour wise, it was solid and the promo made it worth the visit. But I am not sure if I'd come back again.

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.

Really liked the "jiang hu" style decor - felt like eating at a local inn in the Song Dynasty…read more Sweet & Sour Crispy Pork Strips: Loved it. Meaty pork strips coated with thin batter, each piece is wrapped in a glossy sauce and sprinkled with white sesame. Perfect dish to go with rice. Double Cooked Pork Slices: Classic Sichuan-style dish. The pork belly is first boiled, then stir-fried again with chili bean paste and green bell pepper. Very flavorful and savoury, another great dish to go with rice. Soy Sauce Fried Rice: One of my fav childhood dishes, and they delivered very well. It's such a huge portion that we could only finish it in two days. Service was great, considerate and friendly. They even pour water for you before you sit down and pack up the leftovers for you after you finish. You might have to wait if you don't have a reservation, but the turnaround is pretty fast. Food (quality, creativity, consistency) - 5/5 Drinks (quality, variety) - NA/5 Ambience (interior design, cleanliness) - 5/5 Service (courtesy, knowledge, timeliness) - 5/5 Value (quality vs. price) - 5/5 OVERALL - 5

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.
