    Great value for money! The prices are reasonable, and the portion sizes are generous--definitely a good bang for your buck. Seating is a bit cramped, and parking can be hard to find, but if you're not looking for fancy service and just want a satisfying, affordable meal, this place is an excellent choice.

    Definitely going to be one of my new go-to HK style cafe's. My boyfriend and I came here with his mom for lunch. It was cozy. The prices couldn't be more reasonable. The food doesn't take long, but of course the quality isn't crazy amazing. But I guarantee you get the best bang for your buck. They also have a selection of buns and cakes as well. Lots of free parking outside. Seating is pretty limited though, I'd say great for a group of 4 or less. Servers are quick and friendly.

    Breakfast menu - ham macaroni soup
    Wendy T.

    Was in the area and wanted to try it out. It was surprisingly packed. Food - 3/5 - it's ok. Price ranges from $6-8 for the breakfast menu. It was a little small. The broth was unseasoned. Their clientele are mostly seniors so it's not too surprising. There's salt and pepper on the side if you really want to add to your own test. We got an iced lemon tea (add $1.25) and hot hk milk tea. The drinks are quite standard. Ambiance - 3/5 - small seating area, Service - 3/5, sanitized quickly to move the flow of waiting guests. As usual Chinese places, you need to flag them down but they are relatively quick. Overall: 3/5 - it's an ok place. Nothing wrong with it, nothing spectacular. By the way, it's a small plaza, so parking spaces are tight and limited.

    Quite busy here today on a Saturday morning around 10 am for breakfast service. We ended being the third group in the door amongst four groups waiting, so it was about 10 mins or so before being seated. Service is overall fast and friendly though. We were greeted upon entering, asked how many for our table, and seated as soon as we could be. We got checked in for ordering and served our food with a smile. (And later, thanked upon leaving!) I ordered the BEEF BRISKET VERMICELLI, which is $8.99 now with their most recent price increase. There was a good helping of meat and noodles. Brisket was especially good today - not overly fatty but also not too lean that it gets stuck in the teeth. The broth was flavorful to pair, which is important, especially with vermicelli (since it doesn't really absorb) but beware, that's where the hidden calories are! My meal also came with a drink - so hot lemon tea it is. During the meal, you can hear the constant hustle and bustle. Cleanliness is average, not amazing. They also have in-house washrooms which I didn't visit today so I can't speak to them. Parking is average but sometimes hard to find.

    Solid Hong Kong cafe that has kept very reasonable prices and good portion sizes. The flavours are very nostalgic and consistent and pretty tasty. They get busy so expect a short wait but the turnover is pretty quick. Service is fast and efficient.

    HK Cafe | Dinner Review | Chinese Stir Fry Their dinner menus seem to have changed. There used to be combos for 2 now it starts at combos for 4. The combos also don't come with steamed fish if that's what you're craving for. You can order that on the side for $21 and it's great portion too. Their food comes quite quick and generous too. If you spend above a certain amount (I'm guessing $60) they give you chicken or sweet and sour pork for free. Service mainly was good, just one server I wasn't too pleased with. By 8:30pm they make sure you are reminded that they're closing in half an hour. The dessert starts coming to the table even though you're not even half done, they start turning away walk in patrons, the mopping and tossing of dishes into the dirty tubs starts happening etc. Overall dinner was decent and affordable.

    Awesome restaurant with tasty foods at affordable prices! This place probably has your best bang for you buck with the low prices (in comparison to similar restaurants) but still super tasty and large portioned dishes! You have all your classic Congee Queen-esque menu offerings that are all delicious but at a lower price. The portions are pretty generous and they don't skimp out on the key ingredients on their dish--that means plenty of shrimp in your shrimp dish! Definitely recommend coming here for a family-style dinner, or just some takeout!

    Minced pork with eggplant, sweet and sour pork, asparagus with pork neck
    Kina C.

    Came with a big box of rice and soup for takeout. Great deal for decent meal in town. Really fulfilling and tasty. Nothing much to complain, except there's not enough pork neck in one of the dishes (too much asparagus). Portion was a bit small compare to dine in. 3 of us finished all 3 dishes this time whereas we usually had leftover when dine in. Cash only ~

    Beef brisket noodles

    We order the breakfast dish beef brisket noodles that come with a drink. The bill was $31 and some change, so I left them a tip of $2 and some change the waitress comes back and said that not enough, and you need to leave more tip. It was just a few cents short of $3 which would be 10%. I did not believe someone would ask for 15 cents more to make it a $3 dollar tip. She knew we were out of town and wanted more from us. I will not be returning as there are plenty of HK Cafe in Markham. Stay away from this restaurant who wants more money from out of towners.

    This is going to be my new go to HK style cafe. The service is so fast and efficient. The food is done so well and the prices here is rock bottom. Tried the black peller sauce baked chicken steak with rice. Just over $9 for this dish and it come with a drink so got a milk tea which was silky smooth. The sauce foe the chicken steak was so good. The chicken had a ice crisp on the skin and was juicy and tender. Also tried the satay beef in noodle soup. Once again the sauce for the meet was perfect. Beef was soft and tender. For now I must give these two dishes I tried a 5 star when comparing with other HK style cafe. I will come back to try other dishes.

    Free run chicken

    If you're looking for a restaurant with affordable prices and good quality Chinese food, this is the place to go! With a variety of dishes to choose from, you won't make a huge dent on your wallet. The food came fairly quickly after we order, and the portion sizes never disappoint. Overall, this restaurant doesn't charge too much and you get a big portion as well. If you order a certain amount (I believe over 25?), you will get a free sweet and sour pork dish, and a free fish if it's over 35 (I believe). You don't need to order too much as 4 ppl just need 3 or 2 dishes to share. We ordered at least 7 dishes, 4 drinks and the bill was around $70 (fairly cheap as the portion in other restaurants would probably be $100+). The food also reminds me of Hong Kong a lot and none of their dishes ever disappointed me. If you're missing Hong Kong, come give this restaurant a visit! TIP: Weekdays during dinner they're usually busy as well, so try to come before 6pm to get a seat. This restaurant only takes cash or debit!

    We went to this little HK-style cafe to have lunch and we arrived just in time before the weekday lunch rush hour! Hai Tang Cafe is not unlike all the other HK-style cafes. It serves all-day breakfast, lunch, and dinner combos and is located on 16th Ave. near Woodbine Ave. We ordered several things to share: Beef Satay Noodle in Soup with Toast with Butter and Two Eggs, and Curry Chicken on Rice. We actually changed the all-day combo from the Preserved Veggie and Shredded Pork with Vermicelli in Soup to the Beef Satay one. The server, although very busy and running around trying to get everyone seated and ordering, was very kind and able to cater to us very efficiently. Their food is very decent and reasonably priced.

    Kemi M.

    Great place to come for breakfast. The price is always right and they serve traditional chinese breakfast dishes. I got the spam and egg sandwich with french toast. Nothing to special but a good place to pop by for a quick and cheap breakfast.

    NOT recommend beef fried rice. This was given to us in error but as you can see, there's very little beef pieces and mostly rice.

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.

It was perfectly prepared and sliced with the fat rendered and thinly sliced. The wraps were not the monstrous steamed buns but traditional translucent wraps which are super thin, soft and pliable. 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. It takes a certain skill to make fried rice cleanly without an excessive oily coating on each grain of rice. This was one of the best fried rices I've ever had!

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)

Since this Chef 88 is opened until 1am, I think this place will get busier as the night progresses. We weren't super hungry as well ate something for tea time. 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.

The was a cold draft, we even had to tell the hostess/manager, if they could provide a divider to divert the draft from hitting our table. 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.

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。

    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.

    My friend and I were wandering around FMP trying to decide what to eat when we came across Fish…read moreWith You's November "Black Friday" deal, where for $49.99 you get 2 regular size sauerkraut fish soups pre-upgraded to snakehead, 1 half-and-half snack, and any 2 drinks. 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.
