Not sure what all the hype for this place is for. I mean the price is cheap and all, $9.99 for a two item with rice. I ordered roasted pork and duck for one and roasted pork with bbq pork for the other. They both came with complimentary soup. The total came to $$22.59 with tax, I mean you're not going to get that price anywhere else these days. But That's all the glowing I'm going to give. On to the food, it was average, mediocre at best. It wasn't bad but definitely not overwhelming I mean what do you expect for the price. It did match the quality. So cheap price equals cheap quality food. On a side note. This place used to be called "Extra Bbq House" But I noticed the sign changed to "Excellent Bbq House" Suspicious, did they change owners or just a tax evasion scheme ?????
It's basically a battle between this place and HKS BBQ two stores down at the FMP food court. We came here because the line was (very slightly) shorter and the meat looked (very slightly) better. We got the triple combo of roast pig, cha siu and roast duck over rice and I enjoyed it. The meat was flavorful and wasn't too dry. Obviously it's not restaurant quality but for a stand in a food court, I would say the the food is fairly good. Very friendly cashier and butcher!!
The BBQ rice box portion was alright but the meat was chewy. It has been like this for the most recent visits. Meat quality has declined obviously. Regardless of the long line there every day, I just find this BBQ place is not as good as before. Just 10 minutes from here westbound along Hwy-7 got much better BBQs there. Aside from its location, not too recommended.
Always delicious in whatever you choose. There is always a line waiting for food. Will keep coming back.
Super affordable! $9 a combo in today's economy?!?! Line was long as always, think we waited for at least 15minutes, also snacked on some Siu Mai from the vendor right beside as we stood in line. The uncle and auntie were very friendly and gave us lots of meats, it felt like there's more protein than carbs (the noodles photo doesn't do it's justice as a layer of Char Siu was covered by the layer of bbq duck.)
I came here with the boy for lunch around 2pm and waited 30 minutes. We wanted to compare and contrast against its neighbor, HKS bbq. We ordered the roast pork, bbq pork and roast duck. Extra's roast pork is more seasoned but their cha siu has some ingredient that I'm not a fan of (some type of cooking wine that I can taste in Chinese preserved sausages). The pieces of roast duck I received were stingy on meat but I appreciated that it came with sauce which helped because the duck taste was mild. Additionally, I purchased a takeout container of variety of seasoned meat (sliced pig ear, duck wings, gizzards, pork, etc) and I found it to be quite good. Compared to HS, theirs did not look as appetizing or strongly flavored. All around, the meal cost $24 which is quite affordable.
Inside First Markham Place, in the food court, you can find this stall with a looooong line! The line did not move quickly unfortunately. You come here for your choice of roasted duck, bbq meats and chicken either on rice or noodle soup. We opted for half char siu, half roasted duck on vermicelli noodle soup and chicken rice. The portions are large for one person, lots of meat to go with your carb. The rice came with a side of complimentary soup. Make sure to ask for extra sauces on the side if you like your food saucey! Now onto the taste! It's good, and hits the spot, but definitely have had better in the same food court at another stall. It's a great lunch option, on the cheaper side for food now a days. It's tasty, but expect to wait for a while if you see a long line.
Probably the best value you can get in this food court. The 2 meats meal set is $9 + tax which is bananas in this economy. There is always a very long lineup to the stall (especially lunch/dinner hours) but I do think it moves quite fast considering. You can expect to wait roughly 2 mins per person ahead of you. The meats are still piled nice and high, and still taste wonderful. Only downside is that the meats here are always a bit more on the chilled side vs. warm/lukewarm. The portions have gotten a bit smaller, but I feel like it's mostly the rice portion that has shrunk.
We came right when it opened on a Sunday morning and there was already a line. The char sui was good and super fresh. A box was a little under $20. The lady at cash was also really nice and chatty. Cash only spot.
Roast Pork and Soya Chicken . If you've been to First Markham Place, you've likely heard of the infamously long lineups for BBQ meats at two locals-favourite stores. I bought from Extra B.B.Q. House this time and I waited less than 5 minutes as their chasiu was unfortunately sold out. However, I tried their roast pork and soya chicken and both didn't miss. The pork skin was crispy and the meat itself was flavourful and somewhat tender; I prefer Extra's roast pork over K.S., which is the other place. Their soya chicken is also tender, but I wish the skin had a bit more flavour. . It's hard to compare the two popular BBQ spots but I'd say the winner for roast pork goes to Extra BBQ.
Came here to get a whole roasted duck to go and enjoy at home since my nieces (10yo and 7yo) were staying over (slumber partayyy) and I was too lazy to cook. The line wasn't too long as it can get very long during lunch and dinner time. Now these nieces of mine aren't your regular one-two bite and I'm full or eww is that duck?! I don't eat duck type of girls. These girls can eat, and they LOVE roasted duck at that. Anyway, my nieces has had her fair share of roasted duck and when she tells me this duck is good, it's that GOOD. I had to agree with her as well. The skin was still a little crispy, but the meat was juicy and not dry at all. It wasn't too salty and it goes so well with plum sauce and a big bite of rice. You know the roasted duck is good when I asked my nieces what they wanted for lunch tomorrow and she said roasted duck again (Kids don't usually like to eat the same thing twice)! The cashier lady is so sweet, she saw my nieces and my toddler and offered them lollipops as I was waiting for the duck to get chopped up. Whole duck was a tad bit pricey, came out to be $45 taxes incl. I know a hidden gem in my moms area that sells whole roasted duck for much less than that.
This spot and another BBQ restaurant a couple doors down is one of the most popular establishments in the First Markham Place food court. The vibe is nothing fancy and you'll often see lines forming on both spots. They certainly deserve five stars for the incredible value and when I see myself likely coming back sometime in the future. For $ 9 CAD+tax, you could get a mountain of Chinese BBQ and a decent brothy soup. Not the usual free soups with Chinese food court meals that are plain and usually left untouched at the end of the meal. These days, this amount of BBQ duck and pork is unheard of at this price point. I've tried both BBQ joints in this food court, which has been excellent for the occasional times I've been here. I have no complaints. Though by the end of the day, they sell out. So they don't have any crispy roasted pork (siu yuk) left but instead, they could sub us with roasted duck. You must know how to order these BBQ pork for your preferred cut. My favourite is half fat, half lean with the bone in. They get a huge continuous line for a reason. We're satisfied customers. If we aren't too hungry, it can even feed two!
It's been a looong time since I've been to First Markham Place and even longer since I've enjoyed a meal from their food court, one of the better ones I've seen. I happened to be in the area so I dropped in to pick up some food. Access to the indoor part of the mall was limited to one entrance/exit and temperature checks were being conducted by a security guard. It appears to be a good system. Most of the stores were closed and the food court was unusually empty. There was no seating available. I ordered BBQ Duck and Roast Pork from Extra BBQ House for takeout. It came with a bowl of simple but tasty soup. I also picked up a generous platter of BBQ Duck, Roast Pork, Chicken, and BBQ Pork was not only cheap but also very delicious! It was definitely enough to feed three people! Everything was delicious, fresh, and cheap! Yummy!
[LOCATION] - 5/5 This place is located in the food court at First Markham Place. There are ample parking spots outside. [SERVICE] - 5/5 The staff are very friendly and generous with their portions. If you are nice to them, they will be nice to you too. [DÉCOR] - 3/5 Nothing fancy but this food stall was effective and there are lots of seats in the food court. The place fills up during peak hours for lunch & dinner, but there are plenty of seats in the food court. [QUALITY] - 4/5 One of the best quality Chinese BBQ food stands in the area! The sauce also tastes so savoury and delicious! [ORDER] - 4/5 Half Chicken & Half BBQ Pork Rice - $5.99: huge portion, high quality meats, and comes with a soup that tastes homemade. [OVERALL] - 5/5 I would definitely recommend Extra BBQ House because they literally give you extra BBQ meat and so much food! read more

I was at FMP yesterday and couldn't help but notice the crazy long lines in front of Extra BBQ House. They specialize in roast pork, BBQ pork and roast duck, but also sell such Hainanese chicken, BBQ goose, and other more exotic snacks. When you're too lazy to cook and hubby is craving BBQ pork, it seemed like a good time to try this place. Their best sellers are the BBQ pork and roast pork on rice for $5.99 plus tax, which comes in a heaping portion atop steamed rice and some steamed vegetables (typically cabbage or broccoli). Although I didn't order this at this time, a burly guy sitting beside hubby and I in the food court yesterday had ordered it and wouldn't stop raving about what an awesome deal it was, where portions were often plentiful enough for 1.5 to 2 meals for most people (including himself). I requested for BBQ pork and roast pork a la carte, which they sell for $6.50 and $7.99 per pound respectively. However they wouldn't sell me a half pound of roast pork as it was "too little". In the end I purchased a half pound of BBQ pork and a pound of roast pork, which came to $15. There is enough meat in the containers to feed hubby and I for at least 2 meals. The roast pork is very juicy with a deliciously crispy crackling skin. The pieces of pork were more meaty than fatty. The BBQ pork is served with sauce which keeps it flavourful and moist. In terms of best meal deal, it is probably best to order the set meal with rice, which is what I plan to try next time. You really can't go wrong with all that food for such a reasonable price! read more

I decided to get some lunch at FMP and saw that this bbq place was definitely more popular of the two bbq places that were nearly side by side. I ordered a take out box of the crunchy roast pork with soup for 6.50+tax. I asked the lady at the cash for a less fatty piece of pork. When I opened the box and started eating I realized that the rice was garbage. They packed in mushy ass over cooked rice that resembled a rice cake. Wtf. Rice 101 guys. This stuff shouldn't have been served to a customer. In addition, the roasted pork was mostly fat. So disappointed. A good portion of the box was garbage. Even at 6.50+tax they are not giving me a quality meal. Where are their standards? I'm sorry but you can't give paying customers food as if it's for animals. read more

Holy. Extra. BBQ. I don't usually go to FMP often, but I've started visiting the past few days and every time I go here, I stop by. This is honestly one of the best Asian BBQ places I've been to. Look at the meats in the window! Literally DRIPPING with juices and it's so delicious. I usually get the roasted pork and cha siu with rice, cabbage, and soup combo, which is 5.99 not including tax. What I really love about this place is that even though the take out container is the regular ones, it is PACKED to the brim. They do not skimp out on the meat and rice. I am a huge eater but this combo packs a punch and I rarely finish it, and I save it for later. When I share with my mom, we usually add duck to the combo as well. I don't like duck as I find it has a lot of bones and such, but hands down this is the best duck I've ever tasted. Love it. Definitely a hidden gem in the FMP food court. Highly recommended. read more

After seeing the reviews on this place I decided to try it out for lunch. I came at 2pm and there was still a line up so I think that speaks for itself. I got the roasted and BBQ pork on rice. There's napa cabbage under the meat which made me feel like it was healthier than it is. It also comes with a soup and everything came to $6.77 with tax. I didn't see the guy put the meat and everything in the box cuz I was getting cash out to pay so when I opened the box, I was like dayummmmm. Look at all that meat! It was seriously a lot of meat. I almost wished I had more rice to go with it but then I remembered I was supposed to be on a diet. Whoopsie. Anyways, I could only eat half and saved the rest for later. The roasted pork was tender, not dry or too fat, and the skin was soooo crispy. The BBQ pork was good but not the best I've had. I think it could've used a little more marinating time but still good. The soup was piping hot and didn't taste MSG-y. Overall, I will definitely be back to try some other stuff. The price and portion can't be beat. The ppl who work there are also super nice! read more

Woww came here for the first time on a Friday around 2pm. I ordered the special for that day which was the roasted pork and chicken on rice. It comes with napa cabbage and a soup on the side as well. The total was less than $7! I must say this is the best meat of this sort that I've had in a while lol. The roasted pork skin was so perfectly crispy, so delicious! Some pieces I got were closer to the edges so they were pretty salty. The chicken was nice and tender and it really balanced with the pork because it was lighter. The cabbage was also tasty. Anyways, they're very generous with their portions. You most likely won't finish it in one sitting haha. Highly recommend! I would totally come here more often if I was in the area. You can also order the meat to go! read more
Got some food today, line up at the other stall was too long Got Bbq pork and chicken rice as well as roast duck and roast pork rice Taste of everything was worse than the other stall, other than the chicken. The chicken was amazing. Chicken was extremely tender, as well as the duck, both were seasoned well. Bbq pork and roast pig was on the tougher side and taste was bland. Portion size is smaller than the other stall as well, which sucks. Not much duck and 2 pieces of the duck is all fat, which also was a bit stingy. Chicken was average in portion size, bbq pork and roast pig was more plentiful. Price wise it was around the same, if not more All in all, better to go to the other stall, unless you want chicken. Then go here read more

Some of the best Chinese BBQ I've had in years. Came here mid afternoon on a Sunday. There was a short wait and I ordered the daily special lunch box, which is always the daily special. It's free range steamed chicken with roasted pork and rice. Also got a couple pounds of BBQ pork (char siu) to go with it. The lunch box is served with some vegetables, in my case it was steamed napa, green onion sauce for the chicken and a sweetened soy for the pork. The chicken was done, but you've got to be ok with it 'Asian style' meaning bones and medium-rare. The roasted pork was interesting. Nice flavor and not over seasoned. The skin was pulling away from the fat layer a little bit and was super crunchy but thin. The char siu was very tender although fairly lean and again the sauce did not disappoint. After eating, I waited for a fresh pig to be hung and got two pounds of roasted pork to go. Here's a trick to that: If the pig is fresh out of the oven, don't let them cut it into pieces for you. Ask for two or three ribs and they'll put it into a container that should be vented. After the meat has truly rested it should then be cut. This way the juices and flavors are preserved and you get minimal shrinkage. read more

This BBQ house is located inside FMP food court. There's a reason why they always have long line ups. This place is a true example of "cheap, looks good AND taste good" food joint. Ordered the duck chicken rice combo which includes a soup. After tax is $6.75. They filled up the box with rice. Totally worth the wait and price! Highly recommend this place if you're craving for Chinese BBQ! read more
