    Green curry with chicken
    Yu X.

    I was looking for some Thai restaurant near home and found this place on yelp. This canteen style restaurant in general provided average quality of food. It was a 3.5 star experience. I tried their green curry with chicken and pineapple fried rice. The curry sauce was a bit watery, and not enough sauce. It was more spicy than green curries at many other Thai restaurants. The chicken tasted tender. The fired rice offered super large portion of rice but not enough veggies and pineapples. The taste was mediocre. I would probably revisit this place when I don't want to cook and want to eat something easy.

    I have to say I am quite pleasantly surprised by this place (in a good way)! This restaurant is located around the York University (steeles and keele) area, and this is not exactly an area teeming with lots of easily accessible good eats. I would imagine you only go to this area to eat because you work in the area, or you make a special trip to a restaurant in this area which is what we did tonight. There are not really any residential areas nearby or other places you can go to (supermarket for example), but we were in the area (Ikea) and found this place through Yelp. We arrived around 6:30 on a Friday evening and was very pleasantly greeted. This location is nice and clean and actually REALLY easy to find. When driving along Steeles, just look for the hugeee neon flashing sign in a plaza. Yup thats Royal Jade. Did I mention that the people that served us was super nice? Yup just saying it again. My wife and I ordered 3 dishes and a drink. The Nasi Gorang was tasty and full of good stuff (lots of fried egg, shrimp and meat). They definitely did not skimp out on the "good stuff" in this dish, though it was not exceptional. I dont mind getting it again, but I would rather try something else on the menu next time. What stood out more was everything else. The crispy beef was actually super tasty and the consistency was excellent. We have been to other restaurants and ordered "crispy" beef before and only ended up getting "soggy" beef. For this dish, it felt like this restaurant fried and prepared the beef first, then tossed it into the sauce and gave it a quick stir around. This allowed the beef to remain nice and crispy, but at the same time nicely coated. Other restaurants I assume either do the same thing but cook it in the sauce too long - therefore making it soggy. Or just toss it all in together and cook it up and call it "crispy" beef but its not. This place is actually really "crispy" beef and they get it right. The chicken pakoras were excellent here. We have been to a few Hakka style restaurants (Lin garden being the one we end up going back to the most) because they have good pakoras with lots of heat. Royal jade makes their pakoras with lots of meat and very little breading. Basically when you bite into the pakora its crispy, yet remains very juicy with the chicken inside. Lin Garden tends to have a LOT of breading to make their pakoras "look" big but they arent really. And usually lin garden you can get about maybe 6 "large" pakoras for much more then Royal Jade. Royal jade pakoras are a better deal quantity wise, and taste wise. My wife especially enjoyed the green cilantro/parsley sauce on the side with the pakoras. The pakoras were nice, juicy and carried a bit of heat. The contrast in flavors by dipping it in the cilantro/parsley sauce is really unique tasting and addictive we had to ask for a second helping of sauce. I also got "lassi" (sweet flavored) on the side. This reminded me of sweetened kefir if you have had it before. This definitely helped me keep my food down as some of it really packed a kick of heat! Having some dairy to reduce the heat helped! All in all, I would definitely come back again to try a few more dishes. This place is a bit out of the way and is a bit of a hike to get to, but honestly so is Lin Garden for us. Im looking forward to my next visit and would definitely recommend this place as a worthy try.

    Chilli chicken, crispy ginger beef

    When I need my local hakka fix I go here. Chilli chicken a must. Crispy ginger beef great for the kids. Always great quality food!

    Found this gem by accident, we were craving for lobster and was disappointed to learn that Wah Sang was closed down. We stumbled upon Royal Jade- and are we glad we did. Chicken pakoras were huge and juicy, very flavour ful. It comes with coriander chutney that provides a refreshing balance to the spice. Chili Chicken dry was the best among others we've tried. We were also very pleased with the mango lassi. One thing worth mentioning is that this place is very clean compared other Hakka places. We will definitely be back, this is my new favourite Hakka place.

    The place came recommended from a fellow yelper and I finally made it here. Started with the fish pakora and then the Royal Jade soup. The fish pakora was fantastic but the soup I wasn't too crazy about. Having come a ways to get here, I had to sample a bunch of dishes. Had some Chow Main, some fish fish, a rice dish and a beef and broccoli dish. All were decent, but to be fair, I missed some of the distinct flavors I have enjoyed at other places before and expected to have here. My highlight was the fish pakora and the beef and broccoli dish. Would I recommend this place? Absolutely.

    Week old beef with sesame sprinkled on top to make it look more appetizing

    Drove by a lot so I thought I would give it a try. Ordered chilli chicken lunch special and crispy ginger sesame beef. I saw online that some reviewers were able to get gravy on the side for their chilli chicken so I asked about this. The lady said it's a $5 charge... for a side of gravy... no thanks. I was just down the street so I went in about 5 minutes after I called and the food was ready. Not a good sign. The chicken was fine but didn't taste very good. The soup that they gave was so salty that I thought it was the $5 gravy that I declined. The beef was disgusting - very old and tough beef that they probably had sitting for a week and reheated at the time of order. The picture doesn't do it justice.

    Amazing Hakka food with generous portions! I loved the chicken lollipop which was hot and crispy. The Manchurian fried rice was delicious as well - not too spicy yet full of flavour. The service is friendly and attentive. The restaurant was not very busy on a Sunday night. While the restaurant is decently renovated, the restaurant has questionable signs to prevent theft, which makes the restaurant feel less safe.

    My new Fav Hakka restaurant. This place is located in a plaza and has a very nice decor. Owners are super nice and welcoming. We ordered home style dumplings and fish pakora to start. Dumplings were mind blowing and Fish pakora was just fine. I wish they would have used more fish and less better and this is the only reason I gave them 4 stars. In main course we ordered Munchurian chicken, Munchurian chowmein and chilli fish. Everything was just perfect. It's a great place if you like Indian hakka, definitely try them out. I will keep coming back to this place.

    Mango salad. Wouldnt recommend. Not authentic Thai recipe
    Miss Lady ..

    The pad thai was very inauthentic. I think it was just the noodles fried up with some generic pad thai sauce. I wouldn't recommend it. We ordered mango salad and the mango is over-ripe to the point where it was very soft. Once again, very inauthentic Thai and not very tasty. I have the sweet and sour pineapple chicken which will good and I would recommend that. We also had the Manchurian beef and it was just okay. This place is halal and they have it noted on the menu and they told us where they purchased the meat from.

    Royal Jade is a new addition to the list of Hakka restaurants in the city as its been opened since November 2017. I've been to many Hakka restaurants in my time,but I must say Royal Jade is among the winner! Sorry Federick, Good Luck, Tangerine, Lin Garden but this place does it better. Though its not close to home being located on Steeles Ave between Dufferin and Keele, it's worth the drive. The restaurant is clean, their portions are sufficient, prices are reasonable and the staff are attentive and personable. So far this is the closest most authentic Hakka restaurant I've experienced to this day. Unlike the other places that use a lot of corn starch in their food, Royal Jade focuses on pure, flavorful authenticity. In terms of food we had their: Chicken Pakora Chicken Hakka chow mein Sweet Hakka chow mein Royal Jade House Soup Chili Chicken Crispy Beef Fish with red wine sauce. All of which was an easy 5/5!! I'll definitely be coming back.

    Fish pakora
    Rav D.

    An awesome little Hakka spot just waiting to reach stardom. Great atmosphere, clean and well kept restaurant, delicious food, and to top it all off....the world's most courteous, polite, and friendly owner (or I think he was the owner). We ordered chicken Manchurian, and Manchurian Hakka noodles....both were delicious and worth ordering again. We also ordered fish pakora appetizer, it was different from what we were expecting, but good in its own right. We do prefer decent sized pieces of seasoned fish cited in batter and fried, but this was a more fish Manchurian balls type of preparation.

    Deep fried cauliflower
    Gracia S.

    What a hidden gem! A group of friends and I decided to give this place a try after church recently and was happy as we did for the nice service of the family owned restaurant matched up with the lovely food. From everything we ordered (check out pictures!) must gets are: Deep fried Cauliflower- they were exceptionally packed with flavor and oh so crispy and was the major surprise of our whole group as we didn't think that it could be so yummy! Crispy Ginger Beef as well as the Chicken Pakora were also favorites. Along with the Garlic Sauce Eggplant if we had to choose a 4th runner up. The Manchurian Fried Rice and Hakka Noodles were a bit of a let down for us as we expected more flavor. All in all what we learned was that we shouldn't have ordered rice or noodles as each dish you order comes with steamed rice. So it's actually better to order dishes and eat them with plain rice next time!

    Szechuan Szechuan is one of the better fast food options around…read more I came by for a quick takeout meal & was pleasantly surprised by the decent flavours of the crispy Cantonese chow mein. While the noodles were not crispy, the dish was loaded with chicken, shrimp, bok choy, mushroom & other vegetables that soaked up the delicious savoury sauce. We added a cream corn soup to round out. I've also had the Szechuan Chicken before and have to admit it's another hit fast food dish. This restaurant has a mash of different menu items including pho, sushi & Thai curry as well. The sushi rolls were passable. It doesn't have to be perfectly authentic to be a good option at the mall. While we've never tried the server experience, the metal takeout tables here work perfectly fine for a quick meal. For our latest meal, we had the Ginger Beef with rice which is another pleasant Chinese takeout dish popularized locally. It came hot out of the kitchen. The deep fry technique here preserved the tenderness of the beef much better than other places where I've tried this dish. It went well with the crispy batter drenched in sweet spicy soy sauce. Skip it or it hit? If you're looking for Asian food at the mall, an occasional visit here is not bad.

I used to get the kids meal which consist of fried rice or noodle with 2 pieces of chicken. Don't recall the price but it's less than $10 (I feel like it's $5 or less). The chicken is so good! This time around we got 2 boxes of chicken (24) and noodles for total of $32. Service is ok! And there's food court if you want to eat there. Otherwise mainly takeout spot. Also get the red sauce! It's so good with the chicken. They also gave me hot sauce packets and soy sauce.

    China Wok Super Chinese Food provides the best-breaded chicken wings in the Greater Toronto Area…read more The scrumptiously marinated wings are coated with a seasoned batter (with unique, refreshing seasoning blends, such as rosemary) and fried to an absolute crispy golden brown. Once you start those wings, you can't stop. In fact, these wings are so good that I ordered 200 of them for my party last winter, and I still don't get tired of those damn wings! Also - they are great if you keep them in the fridge for a day & reheat them too. Although their fried rice and vegetables are not as out-of-this-world as their wings, they all still pack great wok hei while tasting surprisingly "healthy" (because they are not as heavily seasoned as other Chinese food places). I think the chef wanted to ensure that the other dishes did not steal the show of their wings. Overall, I strongly recommend China Wok Superb Chinese food, regardless of whether you want to grab a combo meal with wings, rice and vegetables or just ten wings for a meal. They are all great options with a decent price.

We were watching on YouTube and saw that the bloggers were reviewing the location in Richmond Hill. We assumed that the Vaughan location was the same one. So, that was our fault. But, we decided to stay and didn't feel like traveling all the way to the other one. We were immediately seated after we arrived. The place is pretty big, with a very elegant interior. Tables seating up to 4 people line the leftmost wall, which has framed paintings adorning it. Circular tables for groups of 8 sit in the center of the restaurant and on all of the tables are crisp white tablecloths with beautifully folded green cloth napkins. The specials are also written on a framed green chalkboard on the back wall and the place is illuminated by built-in spotlights. We ordered the following: Braised Tofu with vegetables - Daughter liked it a lot. She said that it tasted like Chinese takeout but in a good way. Basa Fish Chili Bean Sauce- This was ok, but I thought the sauce was the same as the other orders. Spicy eggplant with shrimp- Hubs said that this tasted similar to the braised tofu with vegetables and it was ok. Overall, we felt that these 3 entrees and sauce all tasted the same. It was ok but no big deal. This place is located next to a mall, so there was plenty of parking. Service was quick and friendly. We told our server about daughter's peanut allergy and it was noted on our bill. There were quite a few other tables occupied. I'm glad we got a chance to try this place. Always wanted to try Canadian Chinese food!

    Tip: The eight-course meal is excellent…read more My best friend asked me if I'd like to go for dim sum with his family after his mom's funeral. I had forgotten that it was customary after a Chinese funeral (his mom was Chinese and her husband was Vietnamese) to have something to eat after a funeral. I was moved that he was thinking of me during a difficult time. I said yes. He got his niece to get me the address of the restaurant. She conveniently had a business card, which made it easy. I saw Legend Chinese Restaurant. I put it into my maps app, and drove my friend and me over there. He insisted that I drive him. Maybe my company provided him comfort. I know that the reverse was true. It was nice to spend some more time catching up with him as we headed northbound. This eatery is in a plaza with Red Lobster across from it. We had dined there together eons ago. There was lots of parking. I backed into a spot and we walked over to the restaurant. A woman greeted us. Both of us wearing black made her realize that we were a part of a larger group that had come from a funeral. She pointed us into a closed area with wall dividers that separated us from the rest of the customers chowing down. We didn't have dim sum. Instead, we had an eight-course meal. I had never dined here, so I was looking forward to what we were about to eat. Each table had to make one seat space open for the server to come with food. I happened to be next to this gap. It has its pros and cons. I helped move dishes and such to make way for new dishes to arrive. Our server did spill some water on the table, but it wasn't crazy. I loved the lazy Susan. Our table had eight people. It was needed to get to whatever we wanted on it. We had hot looseleaf tea and hot water in tea pots. The tea was yummy, but I had no clue what it was. We ended up pouring the hot water into the looseleaf tea pot when we were running low. Our server was also great to refill the pot with the looseleaf tea a number of times. We got the following items during our meal: - Roasted pork - Shrimp and scallop soup - Chicken - Sweet and sour pork - Shrimp and scallops with sugar snaps - Steamed fish - Mushrooms with baby bok choy - Tofu pudding - Fortune cookies Half our table were vegetarians, so almost everything wasn't suitable, except for the tofu pudding. Folks at the table were kind to let me take photos of most dishes before we wrecked them, except for the vegetarian tofu vegetable medley that came out. They were so hangry that they simply went in. I have a mental picture of the generous rectangles of tofu, with mushrooms and baby bok choy. There may have been more veggies. I was happy that they could finally eat! We started with the roasted pork. It was excellent. The pork was succulent. The pork skin was crispy. Delicious! I loved the shrimp and scallop soup. It had small cubes of shrimp and baby scallops in a nice broth. The large bowl of soup sat next to me. It was deadly. I love soup. No one wanted seconds, so I polished it all. The chicken was tender. It was nice with the scallion oil. My friend and I remarked that the sweet and sour pork was excellent. It's probably because we are so used to chicken as the protein. The pork was crispy even with the sweet and sour sauce coating each morsel. The pork was tender. I loved the bell pepper and the pineapple chunks. The shrimp and scallops with sugar snaps was divine. I love sugar snaps and they were perfectly cooked while still crispy. The shrimp and scallops were large and yummy. I grew up with my mom steaming an entire fish. It's dealing with the bones that is annoying. Thankfully, a man at our table went ahead and portioned out the fish such that he eliminated most of the bones. Wow! Can I have this man de-fillet any fish that I want to eat?! The fish was naturally yummy from the steaming method. I loved the green onions on top and the soy-based sauce. I love mushrooms. The fact that we had an assorted mushroom dish with baby bok choy was awesome! Sadly, there was oyster sauce in this dish, so the vegetarians couldn't enjoy it with us. There were two different types of mushrooms. The large ones were meaty. The smaller ones were yummy, but difficult to pick up with chopsticks. I ended up eating them with a soup spoon. There was steamed rice at our table. I had some with the mushroom sauce. It was delicious. We ended up with tofu pudding. We got to scoop the tofu out and then add the syrup. The tofu and syrup were warm. It was a delightful dessert that wasn't all that sweet. We got a large bowl of fortune cookies to end our meal. My fortune said that I tend to be straightforward and honest. My friend joked that my fortune was completely wrong... haha! I used the washroom before I headed home. The women's washroom was clean. No complaints. I loved the food here. It was top-notch delicious. It was comforting and much needed. I'd love to have dim sum here and see what that's like. (413)

    In area with friends - decided to try a local establishment. We found this Chinese Canadian…read morerestaurant by chance using the Yelp app. We got lucky! Steeled Garden was definitely worth the stop. Their hot and sour soup was larger than expected and loaded with Chinese vegetables Almost a meal in itself. The spring rolls were tasty and crisp. The portions for our shrimp dish and Singapore noodles with pork were sufficiently large to feed two hungry adults. I bookmarked this location for a return visit or takeout. Clean establishment with friendly staff. We enjoyed the food and being able to eat in this restaurant.

    If you're in the Steeles & Weston Rd area the lunch special can't be beat! Each item for $2.50 and…read morelarge potions ontop of that make it the perfect place that doesn't break the bank. I chose the chow mein, chicken wings and General Tso's chicken. As you can see from my photo the plate is filled well. For the price the quality can't be beat. Food was hot and quickly served with plenty of seating area to accommodate a few small parties of 3-4 people. Staff was very friendly and didn't rush first time visitors during the lunch rush (very thoughtful of them). I would honestly consider this as a regular lunch spot. I've also heard that their take out is great. You wouldn't guess this from driving by but this place is a real winner. A hidden gem in a busy industrial area for sure!
