    Front is duck and squid noodle  Back is duck and chicken rice.  Each both come with a soup.
    Hihigh F.

    Food, freshly made when ordered, their duck is one of the best in town Service, their style is more like a food court you order your food. You just sit down and you eat Ambiance, most people do takeout. There are five tables if you wish to eat there. Tables are spaced and clean. I have to give it a five star for the amount I paid, $15 per dish (including a bowl of soup) all included, can't complain!!!!

    Price for 4 bbq meats on rice.

    This place deserves 5 stars. One of the better Chinese bbq shops in the gta. Top notch quality and quantity. Let me explain. I ordered 4 orders of 2 bbq meats on rice and upgraded one to a 3 meats combo. Each order was $14.99 and one was $4 more for the upgrade. Total came out to $72.28 incl. tax. It came with 4 soups as well and in 2 bags. Right away when carrying it home. I noticed it was extremely heavy indicating the quantity must have been there. Oh boy, yes it was. When I got home and opened them up. I was pleasantly surprised at how fully loaded each box was. And that's not all. When devouring these combos. The flavours exploded in my mouth. The aromas and I think it's called "wok hay" was amazing. Each bite was an over abundance of joy and excitement. Oh my. Now, I will say this, at $72.28. It was in the pricier side. But It was more than well worth it. And, I will be back for more. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for all yelpers.

    I really like their bbq pork and duck. The meat to fat to crispy ratio is prefect! I like when the meat isn't too fatty and super crispy which is why I loved this place. You can see in the picture as well it was prefect. I love that they give you soup as well they also have daily special but honestly their items are priced pretty well anyways. The lady and cooks were worked super fast. New meat was constantly being bought out. The only thing I will say, is the lines are always super super long so be prepared for a bit of a wait. It is located in the first markham food court, the shop is small but there are plenty of seats but I usually just get take out.

    This is one of the best bbq places I had In Canada. They offer a wide selection of food that can be purchased by the pound or as a meal (with rice). The service is great and the staffs are very friendly. I see mostly takeout but they do have limited dine in seats. It is a good place for a quick meal. Their serving size is generous and their food is tasty. I love the bbq pork, roast pig and duck. I really like the sauce. If you want something on the lighter side I would recommend their noodles which also pairs well with the bbq.

    Nice little bbq place with very limited seating. Most people come here for takeout. It's also a good place for a quick meal before my son's badminton class. Service is fast and friendly, price is reasonable and portion is big, both of us like it, will come back!

    Peking Duck and Roasted Pig noodle soup. $15 including tax.

    This is the absolute best BBQ place in the GTA. I tried so many of them in the past 30 years and I ended up going back to them. The service is rather good albeit their limited English but it is mostly a take out place so you can forget about ambiance. The only negative is that the quality is not always consistent. Perhaps 10% of the times, the quality can be only mediocre BUT their mediocrity are usually equivalent to other places' best.

    The quick & dirty review - respect the clock and open hours, no budging on minutes - arrive at 11am(open) and expect a line up starting - fast decisions here they got a long line up to clear - take out bbq meat, made fresh, the store has been here forever - lots of free parking

    This hidden gem is located in what I call the "haunted" mall in Richmond Hill. I've been here many times for the Korean restaurant but this was my first time trying this Chinese BBQ place. Their menu is pretty standard to all the other bbq spots but I loved how they had noodle options. I choose to have the char siu and roasted duck on top of a bowl of egg noodle soup. The egg noodles were well cooked and there was plenty of veggies and they were generous with the meat. Before inflation I think it was about $8 per serving and now it's $14 :( but still I'd definitely come back here for a quick and yummy lunch

    Very busy restaurant hidden inside Richlane Mall. Offer take out and self served dining options. The food and portions are good. The price is reasonable with quick service.

    Conniving and duplicitous operators. Posts pictures of "combos" showing a drink. But the drink isn't included. Bbq is salty, but flavour is good.

    Red sausage and roast pork bbq rice
    Michelle T.

    I actually really like the food at this place. I had a double meat rice, which was roast BBQ Pork and Sausage. The rice has a salty sauce on it and the meal came with vegetables, a soup, and a cup of cold chrysanthemum tea. All of this was under $10. What a steal. So this place is not known to be a fancy sit-down place, and I would never bring my date here for any special occasion. This is about as dingy as you could get in terms of Chinese cuisine. It is mostly a restaurant in which you order, you pick a table that is the least dirty, inhale your food, and quickly dip. So I already knew that I should not expect sparkling tables or marble walls. This is not the Four Seasons. So by the food itself, I would say it would be a 4 * because it tasted really good, it was not really salty, and the outside of the meat was a little bit crunchy, so you really felt the juiciness of the meat. I deducted two stars from the rating because of sanitary reasons. The floor was sticky or slimy, depending on where you were walking and how fast you were walking. Bringing a tray of food which also has liquids was a real test of balance for me. Most of the tables were sticky or had really greasy marks on them, especially the ones with the plastic covering. The wooden tables were evidently sticky, so it was quite questionable as to how and when they clean them. Because of these hygienic warnings, I might never come back here again. I really like marinated tofu and other marinated food items, so it worries me that the floor and the front of the store is so dirty. Who knows what could be running around in the kitchen at night time when no one is around? At least the cutlery were clean. I do hope to come back sometime in my lifetime, but only when they're floors are not sticky or slimy, and also when their tables are clean and my neck and does not tear when I'm trying to pick it up off the table.

    Small restaurant with very old fashioned BBQ flavors and no table service. There's only 4 tables to sit down at and you'll only get sweet tea to drink with your order (soda is extra). Not exactly bad but not the style that is made in most HK BBQ style restaurants today. The food has really simple flavors. For example the BBQ sauce is really just honey and the BBQ pork is seasoned with five-spice and salt. The duck is tender but not super flavorful. Go here if you're looking for the old style flavors but don't expect to be blown away by great flavors or textures.

    I walked by Excellent BBQ Restaurant numerous time and I always wondering why this place always has a line up? There are sit in area for people decide to dine in and Chinese TV shows would keep you companion no CP24 though. The area looks clean with no that everything are dirty and sticky feel of a lot of other BBQ places I been to!! Price point is a little more than the Scarborough BBQ place I been to.. but for that $1 or $2 the food are both better in quality and quantity. BBQ Pork/Roasted Duck with rice ($6.99) came with like 2 huge bowl of rice, I have to ask them to just give me half portion. The set also comes with a soup and a drink. The duck was really meaty and lean, not the boney and fatty leftover part I usually get! BBQ Pork was on the lean side but not too dry. I was so full after just eating all the meat .. burping! Cash only!!

I was advised that there is usually a line up, so I gave myself some time and sure enough, there was a line in front of me of about 5-6 people. To me, that's a good sign. This place was the real deal, it was simple and to the point. People made their order, paid cash, and left - the wait wasn't bad at all. This was my first time trying Chinese BBQ, so I was playing it safe by trying the BBQ pork, but when I mentioned it was my first time, the lady at the counter said I could mix and match meats so I also got the roast pork. Holy moly...I don't know which one was better? They were both amazing in their own ways....cooked perfectly, not dry, the rice was even amazing. For $12, I was able to have lunch for 2 days, and everyone at my work was jealous of the amazing aroma wafting from my office.. Needless to say...I will be back!

Only good quality meat tastes this good. The coleslaw was good . The secrete ingredient in the dressing was mango. Don't worry if you don't like mango. You don't taste it, it's just part of the background flavour and creates a flavour profile that is amazing. Same with the potato salad, tiny bits of mango in it, it just blends with all the other ingredients to create something really special. Service was excellent, I think it was the owner, but judging by the place, all the employees would be as knowledgeable and helpful, I diols mention, the wings. Very good, the honey garlic sauce dripped of onto the plater, I loved dipping the fries in it. We tried the hot honey on the side. Normally I don't like the spicy, but even with the kick it had, it was very good. The price point was very good. Even with the recent increases in price, it more affordable and higher quality than our regular spots closer to home. We had the feast for 2 for $75. It could have fed 1 or 2 more. We loved it.
