Overall rating: 3.7/5 (rounded up on Yelp)…read more A solid HK cafe in Newmarket that does a decent HK milk tea (not as strong as I usually prefer, but still good), classic HK cafe dishes like fried rice & noodles, Hainanese chicken rice, & baked rice. I found their soups to be on the saltier side and there wasn't enough wok heat taste for the fried noodles, but considering the selection of HK cafes in this area, it's decent. There seems to be a good amount of seating and parking available, and service was relatively quick.

The satay beef with vermicelli soup was flavourful - although the vegetables (corn, carrots and peas weren't thoroughly cooked and hard). The quality of the food has declined from the last few times I was here. On another note, the staff were nice, accommodating and the service was quick. There are lots of HK style places in the area that opened up, I'm not sure if I'd come back here. Side note: they also charge .25 cents for takeout boxes if you have leftovers you'd like to take home.

I don't usually trust places with chicken balls on the menu but I'm so glad we gave this place a chance. As a party of 6 on a Saturday at 8pm, they were able to easily accommodate us. Parking is also very easy to find. The menu is very extensive and can easily be overwhelming, with over 100 items. However the staff are very helpful in describing what each item is, recommending what's most popular and what they personally like. We never had Cambodian cuisine before, so we took their recommendations and they were bang-on! It was my first time having Cambodian-style pho - the soup base is garlic based rather than bone broth based, which honestly I think I prefer more! The wings were also crispy (not much special flavour) and beef skewers were very lemongrass-tasting, which was refreshing. Their prices are also not bad at all. If I was in the area, I would definitely come back.

The breakfast was exactly the kind of classic breakfast we were hoping for -- bacon, toast, sausage, eggs, and coffee, all simple and satisfying. It was not too busy around midday, so the whole meal felt very relaxed. The service was also very friendly, and that made the experience even better. We really enjoyed our meal and would gladly come back again.

Count on Mom's for affordable Chinese food…read more Mom's Pan-Fried Bun in Newmarket offers great value, and is often packed during mealtime with families. This is one of 7 locations now across the GTA. While pan-fried buns & soup dumplings are on the menu, noodles are our go-to here. Their menu also features burgers, fried chicken wings and apps such as scallion pancakes and desserts including pumpkin pie with red bean filling. The soy milk is light and refreshing. The tomato-based noodle soup is rich and slightly tangy. We like that it's always served piping hot and comes with a crispy pork cutlet. The cutlet does soften quick while soaking up the soup. You can also pick between their braised beef noodle soup or their house beef noodle soup with tripe, beef rolls & a smaller pork cutlet for $10.99. It's light but you can jazz it up with their aromatic hot sauce that isn't very spicy. Hand-pulled noodles are thick & bouncy while the bowl portions are a fair size. Their burgers are surprisingly tasty with Asian seasoned beef patty, onion crisp and a slab of processed cheese. The restaurant interior is brightly lit with many promo signages and fits a decent number of tables to accommodate close to 40 guests. Just like their busy downtown location, you can see the action in the back kitchen where the noodles and buns are being steamed and fried. This place accepts credit card and there is no cash discount. Service is quick and friendly for casual dining, promptly serving and clearing your dishes. Skip it or hit it? It's a good meal spot to hit up if you're looking for affordable noodles & bites.

Honey black pepper wings were pretty good: crispy, fresh & juicy. The sauce was sparse & not evenly applied, though. Honey cheese wings were pretty good. The taste was less cloying than Korean cheese powder. There seemed to be no honey though. Scallion pancake was pretty good: slightly dry but flavourful. Fresh pork pan fried buns were good: fluffy yet crispy. Mom's beef burger was not big. The patty was a bit dry. The bun was tasty & fluffy. The honey mustard was pretty nice & there were crispy strips. It was decent & cheap. Tomato noodle with pork chop was decent. The other dishes are better. Red bean pumpkin pie was decent: quite crispy. Rice cake with brown sugar was decent. Sweet soy milk was pretty good but quite sweet.

Please seems to have gone a revamp as tables and chairs have been updated to a different look, being all brown and beige, which I think it is kidn of ugly. I haven't been there in ages and it seems they now give out free dessert after you mind but it is only one dessert per table. It is pretty much a milk pudding cut into 8 to 9 tiny pieces.. not sweet at all. I feel they should be giving though not just to each table but to each patron. Staff is eager to assist you and will check on you multiple times to make sure you are well taken care, even refilling tea a few times and making sure you got your desserts.. I never seen a hk cafe where the staff is so eager to please. My usualy is the baked pork choice rice butI ended up ordering the Beef Brisket Portuguese Rice Dish to try something and the sauce was very fragnant. Good amount of beef brisket and veggies in the dish. THeir hot plates are also very popular option. $1.25 extra for cold drinks. Parking lot is small as it shares with timmies and st-louis. Difficult to find parking during winter.

Round 2 - Lunch again, and again it is quite busy…read more Baked Bolognese Spaghetti - Cheesy top with spaghetti and tomato meat sauce. Tomato sauce was on the sweeter side, which is typical of the HK style. Lacked the heartiness of meat sauce, nice to try, but wouldn't get again. Hainanese Chicken Rice - Bone in chicken. Rice was lacking chicken flavour needed the soy sauce and ginger scallion sauce to add flavour. Chicken texture was good and sauce added flavour. Great place for a family, we had a baby in our party and everyone was very nice to us!

The food was amazing. Generous portion sizes, it was so tasty. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for and that is a lot of high quality food. My only criticism of Savta's is that they only have one person working at the front. When you have 3 people waiting in front of you to get help while the 4th is being checked out at the register, it is a really long wait. I can see how this would be a problem at the lunch rush, especially when people have limited time for your lunch break. I think they need 2 people working the front to speed things up. Other than that, I think that Savta's is a great place to eat. I would recommend it to people who live in Newmarket or are just visiting. They are at the corner of Yonge & Mulock.

I've been to Pho Fusion a couple times now and it has quickly become my favorite Pho restaurant!…read more First and foremost their pho is to die for! The broth is light but incredibly flavorful and complex. The large size is pretty filling and comes with a generous amount of toppings (I usually get rare beef and beef balls). They also have a small size, which I think makes a good lunch size, and extra large size, which I haven't tried yet. Along with the pho they provide a plate of bean sprouts, basil, lime, and chili peppers. I've also gotten their shrimp rolls that I really enjoy. They come well wrapped (nobody wants a shrimp roll that falls apart) and taste very fresh and light. The peanut sauce that accompanies the rolls is delicious too! The service is always very pleasant and polite. They're attentive and quick whenever I need anything like refilling a drink. Inside the restaurant is modern and kept very clean, while tables are well stocked with serve-your-own chopsticks, spoons, and sauces. Overall, I can't say enough about Pho Fusion. I absolutely love their pho soup, making it my family's 'go to' pho restaurant!

He recommended the kanikama and the tuna mayo and said that they started the business because his kids love onigiri and had no place to buy them which was so sweet.

We also got a miso soup and it was equally as delicious. When we were done eating, he came over and brought us a candy and thanked us again. I would total recommend this place since the place was so calm and quiet and friendly and so was the worker not to mention how good the food was.

Salmon onigiri was perfectly cooked, good amounts of fish, and there was some type of teriyaki sauce? So good. Tuna mayo tasted very standard but still delicious.

Service was excellent, both owners were very kind and accommodating. Washrooms are clean!
