Great little HK Style Cafe for in dining or takeout. Right now during pandemic they have it closed off for customers for dine in. Great selection of foods and good lunch and afternoon tea deals on their menu. The pricing is very reasonable compared to larger restaurants. I ordered the deep fried pork chop with salt and pepper, the famous sweet and sour pork and my favourite bean curd with Chinese mushroom, corn, carrots and veggie. Excellent value for dinner we got a surprise soup and dessert.
Good Chinese HK style restaurant! Small and cozy with lots of take out orders and busy! Baked dishes have a bit of a twist to it… Portuguese chicken has pineapple! Quick and efficient service given how busy it was!
We’ve come here for years and they’ve always been able to keep up with the quality of their food. We usually come for dinner. Things are always served hot when dining in, and portions don’t shrink for takeout. They also do party trays - just choose items from their regular menu and ask for the party tray price.
There’s not a lot of tables, so you may have to wait when it’s prime lunch & dinner time. But the tables turn over quite quickly. They accept cash and e-transfer.
Favourite go-to dishes include: Sweet and sour pork with pineapple, Eggplant with minced pork in spicy sauce, Stir fried green bean with minced pork, Braised fish with bean curd and XO sauce.
High quality food with good amount of flavour. They include veggie soup and tofu dessert in the takeout even. The pork chops were on the fatty side tho.
It has a really good taste, the portion is also sufficient, but the downside is that the bowl is too small and the sauce of the pork chop rice I ordered overflowed.
I've eaten a set 8 course meal plus Chinese soups and sweet water dessert about 12 times takeout from this place for over 2 years during the pandemic and not one time have I been disappointed. The ingredients are fresh, the " wok hay " is fantastic considering it's takeout. It's always packaged well. I keep coming back. I'm not comparing it to some fancy Michelin star restaurant but for THIS type and class of restaurant and in relation to its peers, I would give it a five star if this is the kind of food you like. Edit: Add a couple pictures for today's order including the lobster. Edit: More recent orders.
My favourite restaurant since I was a kid. I've been coming to Bayview kitchen with my family for a decade and still go back to see the aunties and have their satay beef noodle soup! All of their food got me through university meals from the HK style cafe food to baked curry chicken on rice. I moved to Ajax and still crave their food all the time. If you haven't been here, you must go. You also get discounts on take out!
AMAZING SERVICE and great food! Was such a wonderful surprise that our meal came with free soup and dessert. Didn’t expect that from a HK style cafe. The servers were ABSOLUTELY THE BEST. They were super friendly and kind. I would highly recommend coming here. I will definitely be back!
This place is going to be one of my go-to Cantonese restaurants I’ll go. Lots of great selections, food is fairly quick & the portion is great for what anyone will purchase. On top of that, the people working there are so nice to talk to. Their sweet & sour chicken with their house special fried rice was very pleasing to eat. Will happily come again very soon.
Is the good? No. Is the food bad? Not really. It's blend.
We ordered a fried noodle with beef from the lunch special. The left container is the size of all take out I have been to. The right container is from this restaurant. It's few dollars cheaper than regular meal but I rather pay $4 more to get a meal that is 50% more in content.
We also ordered Portuguese style chicken. It's super blended. No taste, two pieces of thin chicken. And they put PINEAPPLES! I have eaten dishes all my life and never once had it with PINEAPPLES and extra onions. It should be called Portuguese sauce with onions and rice.
It didnt taste bad but I will definitely not going back. Not sure why this place got 4 stars. The only good thing about this place is they seem to protect their staffs pretty well from covid from outsiders. That's it. Not going back.
I visit this place. Employees super nice. Food was good but no impress about it. The food was ok. I got 4 dishes. 1 of them was no that good compared to other places (same dish)
Amazing place. The staff are so informative and helpful when ordering. I am allergic to eggs and mostly everything is marinated with egg or has scrambled style eggs. Whenever I order, I always let them know ahead of time, both in Cantonese and English that I have an allergy to egg and if anything I order contains egg or might be marinated in eggs, they'll let me know! You might think, "why even eat here if you have an egg allergy and everything has eggs? " well, simply put, the food quality and portions are something I can't give up. If it means I can't eat something, there's always an alternative.
This is, all in all, a place that you MUST visit either by ordering take-out or dining in (when COVID is gone and dining in is allowed again).
This place is essentially operating like a food court outlet nowadays under the pandemic mode of restaurant operation. The restaurant is never spacious and never fancy in the past. It was just a mediocre neighborhood small restaurant, and it has been established there for many years. Servers took very high precautions of keeping themselves safe. They are friendly. Foods are OK quality, and it is comparable to food court Chinese take-out foods and the portion sizes are average. Prices are very expensive for the quality and size being offered. You may buy similar quality foods from a food court for 30 to 35% cheaper. For buying take-out foods there, it is really for the sake of convenience only. Nothing fancy.
I prefer this place very much. It has a friendly atmosphere. The kitcen is superb.the service is effective and the crew is courteous. The pay is fair.truly recommend.
One time we order one chicken Portuguese style and rice for take out. When we serve at home ;very sad there is not even small one piece of chicken meat, all are potatoes. We will sure not give them business forever.
Ordered one item, so this rating is based on the one item so far. Will change based on other items. Ordered the 咕嚕肉 sweet and sour pork. It was very good. The meat wasn't dry and the pieces were pretty good in size. Smaller pieces when fried would've been too dry. Too large and it wouldn't be the same. This was just about right. The pieces were tender and tested great. Seemed a little pricier, but the quality was there. No pictures as it was take out.
Small and crowded seating. But this place has always been delicious since I started coming here 7 years ago. Highly recommend their lunch specials and their dinner combos. I'm so glad they're still operating as take-out only during the pandemic!
A very decent hong kong kitchen with most of the popular Hong Kong tradition dishes. If you are from Hong Kong or in general just want to try Southern Chinese food. This is the place to go. This place has been there since I came to Canada 13 years ago. I would recommend this place to everyone. Amazing breakfast, lunch, teatime and dinner.
One of my favourite Chinese restaurant. The best dish is sweet and sour pork. Fried noodle and fried rice also can excellent. Staffs are attentive and polite.
A family-owned restaurant, and the exceptional service these guys provide shows it.
Food here is great, and always has been (fond memories of me and my friends walking over here during high school, back in 2010).
For lunch, their spaghetti bolognese is one of the best we've had in a HK-cafe style restaurant.
Our family comes here often, and on one occasion, I had mentioned in passing that my favorite post-meal dessert (tong sui) was sai mai lo (sago-taro in a coconut soup). The staff overheard me, and when we packed up our leftovers to go home, they brought over two large take-out containers worth of the dessert for us to have later that night!
We love hanging out. Yesterday we visited this magnificent restaurant which friends recommended to us. We had a lovely evening there with superb food and a nice stuff and a talented chef. We put this venue in our phone list and we will surely return very soon. We deeply recommend.
港式餐厅 Hong Kong (Cantonese) dishes, special on lunch, due to the limited of space, may expect to share the tables. Parking also quite peak some time. Fast service and kindly staffs. It is fast food style in Cantonese! Sample and good but not thing fancy! When you on the table, before start they will ask what kind of the soup you like, like well cook the soup (老火汤) ,then you may order your choice of set lunch that come with a drink, including Hong Kong style tea (港式奶茶) 。 The set lunch are good to try, try them all!
To me, this is a hidden gem. I have never been to a restaurant with faster service than this place. The menu is traditional canto style /HK cafe food with very good pricing. The restaurant is very small and almost elbow to elbow, so I would recommend take out. It equally tastes good. Also, the place is cash only.
Good food, great price, simple, efficient service. My go-to place for a meal when I'm really hungry. Order comes super fast. Great place to go when you're alone too. The servers work above and beyond, they are very efficient and quick. That is their style and some people (like me) really appreciate it when I need to eat something quick:)
Very affordable pricing no matter what time you dine, even breakfast. Seating is a very t cramped because of its size. Lots of set dinners offered and they are all well made and tasty. Just not a place for a lot of food choices. Order their set dinners according to the number of people attended is best. Portions are of reasonable size. Afternoon tea is served, just their HK style milk tea is so so.
Food is okey.price is okey. But, customer services is really bad.oh.let me correct that very-very bad. At lunch time me and mom went there when about to finish eating one of the waitress approach and about to grab the plate so i told her we are not finish yet after few minutes she comeback again do the same thing so i told her we are not finished yet why are you so rude. Her face looked so innocent play dumb.
