I'm not a bad carb person so I can barely make a dent in their rice/noodle dishes for lunch. So I was happy to see non-rice/noodles based dishes that is served all day and not just tea time. I ordered the yuzu chicken steak with potato salad. It comes with a drink and soup. The chicken steak was deep fried, with liminal batter and the met remains juicy. The yuzu sauce was spread on top. First time seeing chicken + yuzu at a cha cheng teng. What took me by surprised was the potato salad. It was definitely made in house, with chunks of apples, carrots, red onion, ham and eggs. Love how it was also not dose in miracle whip. I chose the Chinese soup (instead of western style) and it was flavorful. I would said better than most Chinese restaurants who gives for complimentary soup for dinner. There was minimal MSG, as I didn't feel thirsty afterwards. The HK milk tea was the weaker component of this set, the tea base was lacking in flavour and didnt have the "thick" texture to it.

Excited for another Pine House location!…read more The menu is approximately $1 more than the other locations, and the portions are slightly smaller as well. The taste of the food is pretty much spot on to the other locations, and very classic cha chaan teng foods. Service here is really good actually! They are super attentive and are sure to repeat your order so they have it right. They come to refill your water quickly and often as well. The place isn't very busy most of the time, so it's usually pretty easy to get a seat.

We ordered a 'small' congee and genuinely thought they'd brought us a large by mistake; it was easily enough to feed a family of 4 or 5. The pumpkin congee was a standout--perfectly savory with a subtle hint of sweetness. It's easily one of my new favorites. We also tried the beef stir-fry with rice noodle rolls, which was incredibly aromatic and delicious. To finish, the coconut pudding was the perfect end to the meal--sweet, but not overly so. The staff was friendly, and despite how busy they were, the service was impressively fast. Highly recommend!

My friends and I recently checked out this Chinese restaurant right by Dundas Street in downtown…read moreToronto, and wow - what a pleasant surprise! We ordered what we thought was a regular-sized soup to share, plus a couple of main course dishes. When the soup arrived, we both just looked at each other like "What the hell?!" - it was enormous! Easily enough for 3-4 people. The portions here are seriously huge, so keep that in mind when ordering. What we thought would be a light meal turned into a very filling feast. The food itself was really good. The soup was flavourful and comforting, and the mains we chose were tasty with generous amounts of meat/veggies and solid seasoning. Everything tasted fresh and properly cooked - definitely above average for downtown Chinese food. Location is super convenient if you're in the Dundas area - easy to get to, right in the heart of downtown. Great spot to hang out, especially if you're hungry and want good value. Just be prepared to either come with an appetite or take leftovers home (we definitely did!). Would happily go back next time we're craving Chinese in the area. Highly recommend! Perfect place for a casual catch-up with friends - just don't underestimate the portion sizes!

The skin is thin, soft, silky, and not overly chewy like some other places. I always order the classic BBQ pork rice roll, but this time we also tried the Shrimp & Mushroom Truffle rice roll. It sounded interesting and it was actually really good, you can clearly taste the truffle. We also shared a pork and preserved egg congee since the portion is huge. I've had better congee elsewhere, but this one was okay and tasted better after adding a little soy sauce and white pepper. The sweet items are great as well like the condensed milk toast and the fried milk buns. I haven't tried any of their dimsum items but maybe next time! The prices are pretty cheap, I think I spent $15 and was super full.
