Great little takeout spot with daily specials. I recommend getting a jar of their delicious homemade chili oil - I put it on almost everything now!

I have not been to Yummy house in a long, long time due to it shutting down.
So imagine my surprise to see it had reopened.
I rushed over as soon as I could to fill up on some delicious food.
I am now completely stuffed, with tons of leftovers to spare.
I can only hope they consider bringing back the amazing poutine the used to have, that is now absent from the menu

November 6,2023 update:
I had to come back and update my review of Yummy House. It's still a 5 stars, everything continues to be amazing but I just had their chicken balls and I can't believe I'm raving about chicken balls! You'd think chicken balls would be a boring standard fare, right? NOPE, so wrong! Yummy House makes their own chicken balls, fresh, with actual pieces of chicken breast and their own batter. This was the first time ever that I've had chicken balls that I enjoyed! The batter was crunchy but soft, not too thick and you can taste and see the chicken chunks. Sweet and sour sauce, of course, is divine. You can get it as a meal or as an appetizer on the side (which I did. I ate the whole thing while walking and scrolling). Soooo good, another must try if you're in the area! Thank you Yummy House for all the good food!
Oh my gosh, can I say enough good things about Yummy House? This place is a must visit if you want a classic Cantonese Chinese dish like fried egg noodles (the yellow kind) or fried rice noodles (the flat white kind) or a rice dish with all the delicious fixings. Featured here are their signature Beef Fried Noodles and their Cantonese Fried Noodles. The portions are generous, the food is well flavoured but I appreciate that it's not too salty - perfect for my taste buds.
Can I tell you their secret though? You HAVE to try their Popcorn Chicken. The small is $3.50 and you get a generous portion and you get so much more for your dollar than if you spent that on a bag of chips/fries. You have to get it in the larger size featured here for $7. So satisfying - crunchy, not oily at all, savoury with a hint of 5 spice powder. My favourite are the little crunchy bits at the bottom of the box. Chase that all down with a classic bubble tea and you are good to go. Their bubble tea prices are also reasonable ($3.50 for a small, $5 for a large) and comes in a variety of flavours. They also have smoothies as well.
If you see frozen dim sum in their fridge, pick them up! Tom makes these fresh and freezes them. Each pack is $10 and so much more affordable to steam them at home. They are delicious (try their shrimp dumplings, pork shiu mai, and more!).
Tom and Susan have been running this place since 2003 and they are the gems of the neighbourhood. The local high school students are regular patrons and somehow Susan manages to know their 'usual' orders! They are such lovely easy going people. Yummy House is ideal for takeout so grab some delicious food and enjoy to your heart's content! Man, I want popcorn chicken right now!:)

Great Cantonese style Chinese food in the Pocket area. The owners were super nice, food is delicious, great prices. Glad we have a go to Chinese around Gerrard/Jones!

Lovely owners and great food. Stumbled upon this gem recently and can’t get over their popcorn chicken. So so good! We also had a bubble tea and chilli beef on steamed rice. Can’t wait to make our way through the menu

This place deserves its great rating (a 4.8 at time of writing). The food was delicious and fresh, and service very warm and friendly. Was on my bike and they were about to bring it (and the payment method) out to me on the curb as I locked up. The kids loved the popcorn chicken so it was win win all around. Looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow.

Food and the prices are great. And the people working there are so nice and give off positive vibes.

Super tasty, great value, nice people running a mom and pop, what's not to like? A very appropriately named business.

Went there today after them being closed for a while. Incredibly happy they have reopened as they are a staple in the Leslieville area. That being said, I ordered their Saturday daily special, General Tso's chicken on steamed rice ($12) - absolutely mind-blowing. I strongly suggest you order this if you're apprehensive about trying this spot. I also ordered a side of their popcorn chicken ($3.50). 10/10 will be there again.

A super friendly mom and pop Chinese restaurant! They make everything from scratch. Good portions and prices. They also have super delicious homemade frozen dim sum. They even have cheap lunch specials during the week for the high school students. Will definitely return to try different things on their menu!

So Yum! Always fresh! My friend recommended this place to me as
I’m staying by my boyfriends near by and I don’t regret it! They’re super friendly. They work hard and most of all they’re very welcoming. I hope they get back on their feet and grow since they been closed a very long time. I would be going back again, again and again!

Yummy House is exactly as the name suggests. Everything is really yummy! The owners are so kind and warm. They treat their customers like family and give great recommendations when you are unsure of what to order. Everything is homemade and they even sell frozen dimsum to take home (the siu mai is so juicy and delicious). Amazing spot!

One of my favourite local restaurants!
Amazing lunch food, bubble tea and frozen dim sum to take home. The owners are so lovely and I couldn’t recommend this spot more. Their homemade chilli oil is a must!

Great spot for delicious takeaway. I got the hot and sour soup, house special fried rice, and beef Ho Fun noodles. Loved each dish! The homemade chili oil was a nice touch.

The go to spot for lunch at Riverdale back in the day. So glad they are back bringing much nostalgia. I got their chicken popcorn and its tasty as always. Hope they bring back the fries supreme cause they made it the best

I was thrilled to see that they have reopened! They have been there since about 20 years ago! I used to live up the street and went to high school across the street so they were definitely the go-to spot for quick eats! I'm sad that they no longer sell the same food that I was looking forward to (fries supreme, chicken burger, etc) but I'm so happy for them to be back! They now sell Chinese food but they still live up to their name of being "Yummy"! You can totally taste the "wok hei" in the food. I also picked up some of their homemade frozen dim sum. I don't go downtown often at all but when I'm in the area, I will ALWAYS make a trip to Yummy House for some food and to say hi to Susan and Tom. They are the most genuine people ever and they always make you feel so welcomed!

IT IS BACK! Best bang for the buck; I've always eaten here during lunch and after school. It's a vibe with friends, and the owners are especially lovely.

Good fast food for cheap. Bit greasy, very tasty, worth the price!
The staff are very nice and friendly, the time it takes to serve you is mind-blowingly fast.
Great place for quick bites or orders.
