Chilli chicken w/ gravy on fried rice
Dennis Q.

I came here to grab lunch on a weekday. They currently only do take out. To my surprise the lunch menu items still work out to be shy of $10 after tax. [ Chilli chicken w/ gravy on fried rice ] - The chilli chicken gravy spice level is very low and also not so strong in flavour. The chicken itself is moist in comparison to the other ones I had. I always upgrade from plain rice to fried rice to complement the light flavoured gravy. Great place to grab lunch, service is quick.

Chili Chicken on Rice take out

Not bad for a quick lunchtime fix. I ordered the Chili chicken on rice for take out. Good flavouring, rice with the onions tasted a bit strong.

HUGE portions! (Shrimp w/ Veggies, Chicken & Shrimp Fried Rice, Chilli Chicken DRY)

As someone who is Hakka, I've been around the block of some good and poor Hakka food around Toronto. Spicy Dragon is one of the good spots I've been to, but lets be completely honest, if you are looking for great service and great ambiance then look somewhere else. Spicy Dragon is probably best to do take-out due to the small dine-in area and to make sure that you bring cash so you can save 10% off your order! They are definitely not stingy with the portions, and for any meat or seafood dish, they make sure to give you a generous amount which I appreciate and I'm sure others do as well. If you are in the Scarborough area, I WOULD highly recommend getting take-out from Spicy Dragon and make sure to order at least one of the following: -Chilli Chicken -Chicken Pakora -Chicken and Shrimp Fried Rice -Chicken and Shrimp Hakka Noodles -Crispy Beef Trust me you won't go wrong with one of these items, and all their prices are VERY affordable especially for what they give you!

I could spend the entire review nit picking the faults of this little hole in the wall restaurant; but I think instead it would be better to expound on it's merits. THE GOOD: - Restaurant seats about 20 people but whenever we've been there (lunch times during the week and weekends) we've been able to snag a table. - Food comes out quick. - Beef is tender - Generous amounts of big meaty, battered, deep fried shrimp in their dishes - HUGE portions of their rice dishes - Cheap weekday lunch specials (M-F 11am-2:30pm) - Discount on take out orders if you pay cash Yeah, we'll be back when were in the mood for spicy, reasonably priced Hakka food.

Chicken Pakora (To Go)

4 stars for their Chicken Pakora Appetizer. Everything else was a bit too salty and greasy. Love the concept of Hakka Indian Food. It's a cozy joint. Nothing fancy here. Chili sauces are on each table. Menu items are reasonably priced. If you enjoy spicy food, you will appreciate the dishes here. If they could just tone down the amount of oil when cooking and salt, it would be a solid 4 stars for me. Employees are friendly and quick. I appreciate that my Aunt brought us here.

Metal wire
Edwin L.

This has been a go to spot for Hakka food for my since my high school days, but quality control has been EXTREMELY poor as of late. I have now found A FOREIGN METAL WIRE in my takeout order of Spicy Dragon Chicken TWICE within a few months. Since it has been a go-to of mine since 2007, I gave them another chance when it first happened (even though I received no compassion when I called in to aware them of the issue and was only offered to bring the chicken back in for a new order). Today while eating another takeout order of Spicy Dragon Chicken, I found ANOTHER metal wire. As pictured, the wire is dirty and quite large. It definitely could have done some damage if I had not chewed thoroughly and identified the foreign object before swallowing. I felt like I had to do my due diligence and let the public know of the potential hazard that comes with deciding to eat here. The food is good if you're willing to take your chances, but I won't be taking mine anymore. If this has happened to me twice, it has to have also happened to others. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Black mushrooms and broccoli.
Shahin S.

Craving Hakka style Chinese we quickly jumped on Yelp for some assistance. Was in the area and found this place to be within a 7 min drive. Thought we'd give it a shot as we love a good hole in the wall restaurant with decent reviews. Ambience - this place is small. Maybe seating for 12-15 at full capacity. Their take out business is obviously golden because there was a steady stream of phone calls and pick ups. In such a small space it's hard not to notice. Ordered the Black mushroom and broccoli along with the Chinese eggplant and hot and sour soup. Firstly - for such a small place, the first thing that jumped to mind is how long it takes to get your food. To be honest though, I was suffering from acute hangry-ness but even still - 20 mins is a bit too long. Crying babies, slaps of cold air from the single door was enough to distract but at the same time realize how slowly time was passing. About 20 mins in, I asked whether my soup was close to making it into my belly. After the request, the soup was in my belly in under 5 Mins. The hot and sour soup was ok. A little on the acidic style and not as smooth as other hot and sour soups as I've had. There was a certain tanginess that I didn't enjoy but I was starving, so down it went. Ordered the broccoli and black mushroom with less sauce and based on the eggplant dish, thank goodness that was the case. Broccoli was nicely steamed as we're the mushrooms. The sauce was tasty but quite salty. Overall though, still a healthy option. The eggplant, which my significant other ordered (with no restriction on sauce) was absolutely drenched in this goopy mess which anyone can do without. The eggplant itself was very flavourful and well cooked but the sauce was just excess. Why? I don't know. But it was blatantly obvious. Steamed white rice was nicely cooked and delicious. Overall, I had higher expectations based on reviews but it did not live up to my expectations. Service was mediocre at best. I don't think I'd return. There are definitely better places to eat in the area. Wait time: 4/10 Food: 5/10 Service: 4/10

Singapore noodle and dry chilli chicken
Anthony S.

Came here for the first time tonight. The place is really small, crazy packed on a Friday evening (take out and dine in). We ordered a decent amount of food. Spicy dragon chicken, shrimp Kung pow, chilli chicken, rice, vegetable stir fry and Singapore Noodles with beef. The chilli chicken was on point! Really really good. Got the "dry" option, was quite spicy. Spicy dragon chicken sucked, wasn't flavourful. Singapore and all else was mediocre/same as you would get anywhere else. All that food for $50. 10% off orders $15 or more. No delivery. 3/5 in my books. Would return for the chilli chicken!

Sorry I forgot to take pictures before digging in!

We've dined at the Pickering location and have been wanting to try Scarborough's eatery for some time and did so this week. Firs off, extremely small dining room compared to Pickering, only about 5-6 tables available enough to seat 20-26 patrons max. Staff were very welcoming and seated us immediately, presented menus and glasses of cold water. Hot summer day so that was much appreciated. We had our usual: 1 plate of Chilli Chicken $8.75 (dry version without sauce), you can order a softer saucier version, but we like the crunch. With a plate of Manchurian Vegetable Fried Rice ($6.50) Food arrived in about 15-20 minutes. Chicken was very delicious, crunchy, lots of kick with the green chillies. Rice very well done as well, huge portions! We were pretty full and had some leftovers to take home. $17.21 total, we left a $20 with tip for the courteous and delightful service we received. Overall great value for a dine out with delicious food. Now I know I don't need to travel all the way out to Pickering for some Spicy Dragon.

Stumbled upon this place by pure coincidence. Was looking to go to screemers but was running later than my boyfriend and I thought. So we decided to try out this tasty little place for dinner. Omg we were sooooo pleasantly surprised. We had the Manchurian veggie fried rice, my boyfriend had the Manchurian crispy tofu (he's a vegetarian) and i had the Szechuan style chicken. We also ordered veggie spring rolls, and they were served nice and hot and oh so fresh. Tasted like they had just made them. This was one of the best Asian style meals I've ever had. The Szechuan chicken was delicious and so saucy. I could eat this all day. My boyfriend liked the tofu but he wished he had tried something else. What stole the show was the Manchurian veggie fried rice. This was the best rice ever. So flavourful and not greasy whatsoever. This is such a little gem of a hole in the wall The place was kinda full when we got there but we managed to get a seat after waiting about 10 mins. Our food was brought out super quickly and we got nothing but great service. Such a good little place, I bave nothing but good things to say about this place. Will definitely return just to try out new dishes

Spicy dragon fish. This is good. Better if eaten at the resto as it is more crispy than take out. Take out tends to be on a soggy side.

A big yes to big portions esp the hakka noodle. Chili chicken is not as good as Lucky's but other food is contender. Paid $35 including tax for 2 orders of chicken hakka noodle, 1 spicy dragon fish and 1 chilli beef. Tip: portions are bigger dine in than take out.

This place is my big surprise and beyond my expectation. I work near there, just went there for a quick bite after work. To my surprise, the food is sooooooo good, I like their Shrimp in Lobster sauce and chili fish. I have lived in Toronto for 5 years and tried numerous Chinese western style restaurants, most of them let me down. I could say for my taste, this one is the best among all the other similar ones in Toronto.

Healthy Alternative is truly the best healthy alternative food delivery option we've found so far…read more(especially for their vegan options) that is both reasonable price-wise and tastes amazing (without a lot of the unsavoury additives you'll find...ahem...corn syrup). We've tried LiveFit, Yumba, WeCook...I can't believe I actually WANT to order their salads - they're that good. I've also ordered the meat options and they were great too. The only reason why I've given them 4 stars is because I wish their ordering system was more clearly explained and user friendly on the website, because I had to call/email them a couple times to figure out how to do it. Just a heads up, it's a food subscription, they offer a first time delivery discount code, call them and ask for it. You order a plan through the website then they email you the weekly menu options. They also offer some wiggle room in the delivery dates, which is awesome. Also, free delivery, yay!! I also wish they offered more non-soy vegan options, but still love that they offer delicious vegan options. As a side note, I've really loved their salad dressings & sauces so far (particular YUM to their tzatziki or aioli sauces). Definitely worth a try if you're trying to find a delicious and healthy option!

I switched to Healthy Alternative about 8 months ago when my previous food delivery service decided…read moreto hike their prices. It must have been "food fate", because I'm extremely happy that I made the change. What I like most about Healthy Alternative: --Tasty fresh food with different menu selections per delivery (I especially love their breakfast dishes) --Portion-controlled to fit my diet --Customized for special requests (i.e. No asparagus for me, please!) --Delivered right to my door twice a week --Fairly priced If and when I've had any concerns, Healthy Alternative has always been quick to respond and rectify the issue. Now that's what I call customer service! I look forward to continuing my service with HA for a long time to come. Thank you! :)

Ceylantroo really surprised me on a Sunday night at 7pm when a neighbouring restaurant required a…read morelonger wait than I could accommodate. Strolling by and in a time crunch, I thought it was time to try a place without reading about it first. As a catering and takeout focused restaurant, Ceylantroo only has three chairs for waiting customers, not diners. Though they don't have a menu to hand out, they have signs over their hot table advertising Sri Lankan specialties like kothu amongst other more usual fair like roti. On the hot table there were the usual samosas, vadai, and a number of vegetarian dishes. What sealed the deal was when the friendly server said I could try all 5 with rice for $6 flat. Packed to the brim in a large takeout container, this was any foodie and bargain hunters dream! Just a tip: be sure you're up for some authentic spice when ordering, otherwise this may not be the place for you. And when I say spice, I mean chili slices with seeds attached---aka the real deal. If you do have some heat tolerance, get ready for some real flavour! In the 5 vegetarian dishes I had, there were: beets, potatoes and Chana (chichpeas), daal (lentils), eggplant and pumpkin. While there are potentially tongue numbing spice, it's also balanced with fragrant masala like cardamom pods, seeds etc. Really just a dream if you like full-flavoured dishes. As for where I ate, it happened to be a beautiful sunny day, so I parked myself by some concrete dividers and enjoyed some sun, spice and a memorable weekend meal. Highly recommend, will come back and would love to try the catering one day!
