The waitlist is no joke here. I anticipated the long wait so we planned for an early dinner. Headed over around 5:45pm and the waitlist was empty. We told ourselves that we would monitor the waitlist on the drive. Started to drive/chat and randomly checked the waitlist to see 38 parties already joined. I swear it didn't feel like 10 minutes had even pass. We joined at 5:56pm and got seated just after 8pm. My friend and I did a lot during the two hours so I would recommend doing something in the meantime to dine here. Dinner was great here. Ordered the shaoxing wine drunken chicken pot and added additional veggies, wonton and mushroom. Salt and pepper corn is a must try. Lemon tea was so refreshing here. Servers come by for soup refills and they help clear the impurities of the soup. Great service overall. Although on the pricier side, this was still 5 stars overall. read more

Highly recommend Loon Fong Hotpo!!! Everything here is truly 10/10. From the moment we sat down, the experience was excellent!! Service was amazing!! We ordered chicken broth and it was rich and flavorful, ingredients were extremely fresh, and the quality of the meats and seafood really stood out. Every dish we ordered tasted amazing nothing disappointed!!! Since this is a Hong Kong style hot pot, the environment was super comfortable and truly felt like being in Hong Kong. The vibe with Cantonese songs playing in the background while we enjoyed our dinner, which made the whole experience even more authentic and relaxing. If you're craving hotpot in Toronto, Loon Fong Hotpot is a must try!!! I'll definitely be coming back again!!! read more

We've passed by this place several times and never knew what was inside until we saw a post in social media. We went on a weekend hoping to get in but it was packed and lining up outside. We got in early on a Wednesday night while it was snowy. It was still packed around 5:30pm and we got the last table for 4. I loved the decor and when pics were posted, friends were confused and thought that we were out of the country. We ordered the coconut chicken soup base where they steam pieces of chicken leg/thigh over the soup first. They serve it to you so don't open up the lid. I wish they'd have told us this as we sat there for 15+ minutes not know what was going on. Anyhow, when the chicken there was finally done, we got to drink some of the soup which was quite rich and delicious. They added some water to the pot and the we were able to cook the assorted meatballs. They were very good and great texture (they had that "spring") The razor clams were quite fresh and veggies were good. Another good choice was the tofu rolls. Overall the food and service were great. The only questionable thing was how the trolley stored food so near the ground. We took dishes off of that level and moved them over to the table. The kids were worried about people's feet (wet boots) being so close to the food. read more

Not a lot of restaurants still open at 11pm so we decided to come. Love their choices of soup base as you can bring it back home. Although it's a bit pricy for the soup base. Good for a group of people (maybe 4+) so you can order more. Fish came as a whole fish fillet. Meat quality was good. Service was decent. Overall, will probably come back again with a bigger group next time so I can try more different items on menu. read more

I was really excited to try out this Hong Kong-style hotpot place due to its less spicy and more nourishing broths that are lighter, and a focus on drinking the flavorful soup first. We chose the chicken and fish maw broth. The soup was so sweet and light. I really appreciate their priority with using fresh ingredients. The fish balls and beef balls were fresh/homemade, which resulted in really good texture and quality. The sauce station is set up on a cart next to the table for convenience -- all very fresh ingredients. The decor and ambiance of the place is spectacular!! It was like walking into a diner on the streets of Hong Kong with all of the neon lit signs and banners. The staff were attentive and added broth for us a couple times. After the meal, I felt full but not overly stuffed because the food was not heavy or overly salty. read more

Loon Fong Hotpot Parking: Parking can be difficult during dinner hours on a Saturday evening. Atmosphere: Old school Hong Kong street vibe from the 80's and space between each table are reasonable. Recommend to go during autumn and winter. As their air conditioner is not strong enough during summer. Service: Fast, smart, and attentive staff. Presentation: Food plating is nice for hotpot restaurant standards. All seafood dishes are chilled with ice. Taste: Chicken broth with fish maw: The best hotpot soup base I have in the GTA. Super condensed chicken flavour and full of collagen Four treasures balls: Handmade meatball and okay bounce. Eel: Okay fresh and bouncy skin. Beef tongue: Mild beef flavour and nice texture. Hand cut beef and beef shank: Not much beef flavour, a bit disappointing. Razor clams and oysters: Not that fresh but still eatable. Overall: Customers are paying very high al carte price for the old school 80's Hong Kong street vibe. In my personal opinion, there are other famous Shabu Shabu / Sukiyaki $100 plus per person AYCE restaurants that offer much fresher and better-quality beef / seafood selections. read more

Chicken broth with fish mae is the soup base to try. You can also get rice with it that's added at the end of the meal for a hearty congee to finish the meal. Their milk pudding was also surprisingly good. Great atmosphere too! read more

Started waiting on the online waitlist at around 6:30pm on a Tuesday and finally got a table for 3 at around 8:30. This place served Hong Kong style hotpot and the ambience was great. While the interior design looked really cool, I think the food was only okay. I would say all the food tasted very authentic and the meat was fresh but none of the food was that special that would make it worth a 2 hour wait. After tips, it came out to be around 70CAD per person, and for someone that's coming from New York, that's not bad at all, but I definitely won't want to come back if the wait is that long again. read more

My boyfriend and I visited this restaurant on a Monday around 12:20pm and waited for about an hour to get seated. The restaurant itself is decorated with classic hk signs and very nostalgic. We got the popular fish maw chicken hotpot with hand cut beef ribs, beef shank and water cress. I got a free hongkong milk tea with the voucher. My boyfriend and I both found the broth to be extremely rich and hearty, which was great for the cold weather. The service was a bit slow, but again, the restaurant was packed. I really like how they provide each table with their own condiments to make their own sauce. Overall, great dining experience and would recommend this place for anyone who likes hotpot! read more

I've passed by this place many times and seen the pretty interior from the outside, so I was super excited to finally get to check them out. @loonfong_hotpot specializes in Hong Kong style hot pot, I'm in love with the decor. It feels like you're transported into the streets of Hong Kong. I love all the little details, including fake BBQ poultry hanging in one of the rooms We got the chicken fish maw hot pot with a variety of meats, meatballs, and other hot pot essentials. Everything tasted amazing, the quality of Aldi ingredients were clearly very high-quality, and drinking the chicken soup after felt so nice on a cold winter day. There's very little to no MSG, so I drank very minimal amounts of water, which is great. you also get your own sauce bar so you don't have to walk over and fight people for sauces. Service was very friendly and attentive for a Chinese restaurant, waitresses kept offering to change our plates, scoop soup for us, add more broth, and so on. Pricewise was definitely on the expensive side for hot pot, but for the unique vibes and excellent service and quality, it was worth it. Would definitely come back here. Definitely be sure to make a reservation or join their waitlist before arriving if you want to minimize the wait for a table, because it does get busy. read more

Very well decorated! They pulled famous signage and classic old Hong Kong store fronts as decor for the restaurant. Loving the neon signs. Reminds me so much of HK! Being born & raised in HK, I wouldn't say this is authentic HK style hot pot. But the food is good regardless. Really enjoy the fish maw chicken soup. Their sauces are very good as well which is essential for hot pot. They bring u your own sauce tray to mix your own. Staff is pretty friendly and helpful with cook as well if you need help. Could be long waits and no reservations, be sure to join the waitlist early if u want to visit for dinner. read more

A relatively new hot pot place in the area and was very impressive. The food was fresh and good quality. The chicken soup base was delicious and so flavourful. Decor and ambiance of the restaurant is really cool as well. Makes you feel like you're in Hong Kong. The restaurant is small. We joined the virtual wait list around 6pm and got a table close to 8pm. The seating is also a bit tight. We were a group of 6 and got a small table that easily filled up once we started ordering a few dishes. They do have a private room that fits 12 ppl but has a minimum spend. read more

Feels like you're in the streets of HK coming here. A new Hong Kong style hot pot with a beautiful interior filled with neon signage and old school Hong Kong street style decor. It really feels like you've taken a step back into Hong Kong street dining here which was the main reason I wanted to come. Make reservations in advance as this place is popular and will fill up quickly. I've visited twice already, once with a large party, they kindly seated us in their private room at the back that opens up to two large tables. Second time I came with a party of 4, both times were amazing and service is also so attentive. This is not your typical Chinese hot pot as food variety is limited (they don't have lamb), but it's higher quality food and focus is on their soup bases. Both times I opted for their full chicken, fish maw soup base and it comes with an entire whole chicken. They top your broth up with additional chicken soup. The soup bases are definitely quite pricey, sitting at $65 per pot, but much more delicious than usual hot pot spots. They bring you an entire tray of sauce items for you to make your own hot pot sauce. Add the scallion oil to your sauce - what a game changer this was! Some things worth ordering: Ball variety 5/5 - Comes with hand made fish balls, beef balls and shrimp balls. Great for sharing and is super high quality! Clay pot rice 5/5 - Get this first thing when you get seated as it will take half hour to cook up. Perfectly cooked rice with preserved meats that were juicy, salty and deliciously oily. Razor clams 5/5 - Was sold out the first time I came so was glad I was able to order this second time around. High quality seafood that pairs well with the hot pot. Tip: If you get the chicken fish maw hot pot, don't put the entire plate of chicken into the soup. The chicken will get overcooked and you won't be able to eat it quick enough to really taste the silky chicken. Instead, make sure you put the chicken pieces into the hot pot in batches as you eat. Can't rave about this place enough. Such good vibes, food and service. Give it a try! read more

I went here for lunch with friends last month, and it was pretty amazing! We spent around $280+ which is quite affordable for a hotpot place, especially considering there were six of us and we ordered a lot of food. Excellent service as well! When we arrived around lunchtime, the restaurant was packed, but the wait wasn't too long. They have a small machine at the entrance where you sign up online and wait for your turn. There's also a power bank station--just scan the code in the top right corner to charge your phone for $1 per 30 minutes, with a $6 daily max. Once we got our table, they brought us a box of nine different dipping sauces so we could mix and match to our liking! Besides hotpot, we also ordered two separate dishes. The Cantonese salmon salad was absolutely delicious--we finished the salmon way faster than expected! The clay pot rice was another highlight, packed with generous portions of meat, Chinese sausages, and veggies, and it wasn't too oily. For drinks, we all got Hong Kong milk tea. If you add tapioca, it tastes like an upgraded version of bubble tea! While I loved it, it was a bit too sweet for me. Since I'm a soup lover, I enjoyed more of the chicken broth--it was warm, flavorful, and the chicken was incredibly tender and juicy. For the hotpot, we ordered fish slices, shrimp, handmade meatballs, fish balls, and some vegetables. Everything was fresh and tasty! Beyond the amazing food, I also loved the restaurant's design. It really brought back memories and had a strong Hong Kong street-style vibe--it felt like I'm back to Hong Kong. They did a fantastic job not only with the food but also in creating an atmosphere that showcases the culture beautifully. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back again :)) read more

The interior felt like some of Hong Kong's most iconic signage and brands stuffed into a restaurant. Ironically the restaurant isn't huge as a result to a lot of decor (I think) it gives stuffed in a sardine can vibe which I think paints a good picture of how people live in Hong Kong (space is limited) it was interesting and made me miss Hong Kong. The staff majority speaks Mandarin a couple spoke Cantonese but all were equally nice/patient/helpful. We got the chicken and fish maw soup base ($68) and I can't remember the prices for the other items but I would say food is only so-so for an a la carte. We got the "lo seiw" duck apparently their famous for, it's okay. The hand cut beef once cooked it's rough and tough to chew and the meat balls weren't special, couldn't tasted the flavouring it claims to have. A bit unfortunate, perhaps the soup base over powers the taste? I probably wouldn't come back unless I want the vibes again. read more

@loonfong_hotpot (pronounced as "Lung" Fung" 龍鳳) 330 Highway 7 Suite 106, Richmond Hill, ON L4B 3P8 HK STYLE FISH or Fish Maw Chicken HOT POT was Great for sharing between 6-8 people. We booked the private room and the vibe is definitely different than sitting in the main dining area with more of the interior vintage style HK decor. Everyone's different, some go for the food and not so much for the interior design OR vice versa. We clearly were here for the food and we ordered "almost" everything on their menu (just joking ) but their soups were what we were here for.  If you want to book the room I think there is a minimum spend of $400 and the room can sit up to 10 guests (call them to inquire) at least they take reservation for booking the room, else you'll need to queue up on their tablet at the entrance and wait for your table. Here's my rating: 4 out of 5. Service was alright but we felt rushed and couldn't enjoy the food at the restaurant because the room had no ventilation and was so hot that we lost appetite trying to finish the food we ordered.  Don't get me wrong, the FOOD was amazing , but the atmosphere... Needs to be improved.   -Scan QR code for menu and place order. - Not really stroller-baby friendly because the tables were crammed together with chairs hitting each other at a very close distance.  What you MUST ORDER: Pork Jowl (豬頸肉) for hot pot. What you can AVOID: 4 treasures meat balls..手打肉丸/魚蛋/牛肉丸 (it was very soft and starchy). But if you're planning your visit here, I highly suggest coming here early to queue up online or check the Snappy app for reservations on mobile. Would come back again and try for lunch as well. And their desserts were all very good! read more

The interior of this hot pot spot Loon Fong Hot Pot definitely takes you back to Hong Kong when I was a kid. Very instagram able background. Service was good in a sense I have a lot of the chicken and broth left, they packed it all for me. The menu was not all you can eat. The Chicken Broth with Fish Maw was so delicious as the hot pot soup base. It was $68 for this soup base but very sweet and delicious, not to mention they give you the whole chicken. The chicken did not taste too rough. The Osmanthus Clam was fresh and sweet. The shrimp ball paste with a little bit of the ginger green onion was delicious! The Chaozhou Marinated Duck marinated in the the sauce was delicious and nicely marinated along with the Garlic Chicken Wings. Piping hot and didn't taste too greasy. Overall, it was not just the cool decor, the food tasted good and fresh! read more

Service is pretty good, atmosphere is cool. The food has a bit too much msg for my taste. Beef quality is better than the chicken

Definitely join the wait list online before planning to go on a Friday- Sunday as they don't take reservations. My family of 3 and I joined online at 5:30pm with 15 groups in the wait list, and got seated by 6:15pm. The wait list is available at a kiosk in the restaurant but was already at 60 groups on the wait list by the time 6:15pm rolled around. Staff told us that the week of Christmas, there was a 4h wait time! After being seated, the service and food options were impressive and definitely warranted the popularity this spot has been gaining. Chicken broth and fish maw broth is apparently the most popular, and you can get the chicken arrived cooked or raw depending on how quickly you want it to be ready to eat. Staff also took a few minutes to genuinely share their recommendations. Price is fair for the food portions and quick and attentive service - skimming the meat scum off the broth, replacing dirty plates with clean ones, and refilling water and broth as needed. If you speak Cantonese, the staff are so fun and outgoing to chat with you. Some Mandarin-speaking staff as well, all were friendly :) Washrooms and space are clean, the interior is decorated with detail to the neon sign theme of popular places in Hong Kong. The washroom is not decorated as such. Staff did not have enough high chairs for the groups in attendance, so might be good to note for those planning to bring kids who may need that. Overall, would recommend a visit if the wait is less than an hour or if you plan ahead and join the wait list online before arriving. It's difficult to justify more than 1.5h wait time as there are so many options for good food and hot pot in RHill/Markham! My family and I think the broth options were all appealing for the Cantonese palette, but the beef quality was better at places like HaiDiLao and Daimaru. Worth a try if you haven't gone :) read more

The most authentic Hong Kong-style restaurant/hotpot in North America - I'd give it a 10/10! I always go for the chicken broth soup base, and the beef is top-notch. If you want to feel like you're in a Wong Kar-wai film set in 1980s Hong Kong, this place is a must! read more

Great food and service! They serve HK style hot pot which is harder to find in Toronto (compared to Sichuan hot pot). Nicely done and will seasoned. Cool prize incentives for Mother's Day read more

It's a popular place only because it enjoys the monopoly in Hong Kong style hotpot. Mediocre soup base. Most umami flavor is backed by msg.

Over priced and bad service. The quality was not that fresh for the price. Better off going elsewhere
