    Pork ribs
    Biyu X.

    We were planning to go for the bun, but the lineup was crazy, so we went for congee that I haven't had for a while. I loved the BBQ octopus, congee, and beef on iron pan; my little girl wanted noodles; my husband wanted a garlic pork rib. We got all those happened tonight. My little one was a little cranky at the beginning, but the waitress were so nice and patient, and they tried to help and calm her down. We love their service. The food came fast and they were all tasty. Just they were a bit salty to us. We asked the waitress how we could get them less sauce or what to tell the chef. They told us we could request less salt next time. Well, good to know that. Good service and reasonable prices. Definitely will come again.

    Top notch food served here. We usually go to the Scarborough location. First time here. The dining room is spacious and modern. The only problem is the parking lot here. Very hard to find parking spots. The food was excellent. We ordered roasted duck and pork combo. The duck was a bit chewy for some parts. I would have preferred the tender meaty pieces. The roasted pork has the glistening crispy pork skin and hoi sin sauce to dip. The salt and spice peper squid was crispy and just the right amount of spice. The Singapore fried turnips are one of my favorite dishes when I go to these Congee restaurants. Think of it as the Chinese version of home fries at a breakfast place. Dip these bad boys in chili oil and you'll be in heaven. We also tried the fried beef udon noodles and great wok hei on the noodles. We had lots of leftovers to take home. The female server was very kind and checked on us regularly. She even helped pack our leftovers. Great service is hard to come by in some Chinese restaurants. I applaud this server and bus boy who brought out our hot and fresh food. I will definitely come back here when looking to satisfy my Cantonese food cravings.

    Mr. Congee is one of those Chinese restaurants with dishes similar to Congee Queen. There are several restaurants in this plaza so it can be hard to find parking during dinner time. Although there are lots of tables, we always make a reservation since they can get busy. The inside is bright and spacious and they also have rooms for private/larger groups as well. I'd say the food is pretty decent / typical of a Chinese restaurant. It's flavourful but not too salty, nor is it too oily. The service is decent. Would recommend the turnip cake for sure!

    A solid spot with reasonable prices and portion sizes. None of the dishes blew me away, but I suppose you would be coming here for a consistent, hearty meal which this delivers. For a place called Mr. Congee, I did expect the congee to have a better flavour. I did enjoy the roast duck.

    I enjoyed eating here . The place was nice / clean and service was not bad or I should say good for a Chinese restaurant lol. Food was tasty and came quick ! My jacket dropped at one point and the server was nice enough to point it out and helped me pick it up . I heard they also have tea time specials from 3pm-5pm with meals starting at $9 and with a drink! I'll definitely return back here whenever I'm in the area or am craving some delicious Chinese food

    Complimentary dessert

    Mr. Congee is a fast paced and modern Cantonese restaurant. It is very popular and often completely full! The turnover is quite quick, which comes with advantages (fresh ingredients) and disadvantages (very noisy and time limit). We went there during a very busy time of the year and ordered a diverse selection of dishes, from duck to stir-fried vegetables. Everything came pretty quickly with that characteristic no-nonsense service. The food was good, with some dishes better than others. the salt and pepper fish cutlets were somewhat dry, whereas the steamed scallops with XO sauce were too oily (not to mention incredibly expensive at the unlisted market price). The Beijing duck was popular as usual, and the beef sirloin stir-fry with vegetables was tender and flavourful. You get a free dessert (e.g. sweet tapioca porridge) at the end, and complimentary orange slices if you spend more than a certain amount. Clearly a roaringly popular business!

    Duck Meat Wrap w/ Lettuce

    We recently tried the Holiday Roast Duck & Double Lobster Set Meal ($288) at Mr. Congee, and it was a memorable experience overall--perfect for a special occasion or family dinner. The set came with a generous lineup of dishes. The assorted BBQ combo looked great on the platter, but a couple of the meats (particularly the char siu) were on the drier side. Flavor-wise, still solid, but texture could have been better. The crab meat with fish maw thick soup was rich, savory, and comforting--definitely a crowd-pleaser. The Peking roast duck was one of the stars of the night: crispy skin, juicy meat, and all the classic fixings. We also appreciated the follow-up dish using the remaining duck meat (served with crisp lettuce wraps) which was a nice savory stir-fry. The double lobster stir fry with ginger and green onion was excellent. Fresh, tender lobster meat, cooked just right and full of aromatic flavor. The Chinese-style mango beef tenderloin was another standout--sweet, tangy, and very tender. The stir-fried fish filet and snow pea leaves with king mushroom helped balance out the richness of the meal with lighter, cleaner flavors. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Tea refills, clean plates, and pacing of dishes were all handled well--though the table did get a little crowded as everything came out in fairly quick succession. All in all, this was a great value set meal with a wide variety of flavors and dishes

    Tofu with Veggies
    Hari S.

    Second time visiting this restaurant after a few years. Went for dinner and overall food was good. The service was quick, good environment, seating and all. We ordered vegetarian Cantonese chowmein which was really good and the Peking duck was excellent (pancakes & lettuce wrap). The tofu didn't have as much flavour as I'd like but was still good. Though the hot and sour soup was fairly bland and not much flavour. Overall the meal was good. One complaint was that the utensils weren't the cleanest, had to use the tea to clean it off a bit. Recommend others give this place a try.

    Great food with the typical Chinese restaurant service. Came here with a large group with no reservations and was ignored multiple times by the hostess, which is also running around the restaurant doing many other things. Eventually they asked us how many for the table, but never gave us a number or told us how long the wait would be. Being super short and ignoring us once again. Eventually, our entire group of ten people decided to leave next door to Keungs Delight since we had no idea how long the wait would be. Once we got to the other side of the street, we hear the hostess running out to us calling us back that the table was ready haha! We actually went back into the restaurant and was so glad we did. The restaurant is newly renovated so it's nice and bright in there! Food was really good and reasonably priced, especially with a larger group. Got the typical Chinese sharable dishes of fried turnip cakes, sauteed eggplant, fried rice noodles, clay pot oyster, peking duck and clay pot rice. All the dishes were great in flavour and so good for sharing. Overall, come for the food, not the service. Just know what you're getting yourself into if you get sub-par service.

    Definitely one of fave places to eat Chinese food. So many choices and all good. Definitely a great place to eat some good Chinese food

    Chili Oil

    I've always enjoyed exploring new places to dine so when my friend, @jenktraveltoeat, suggested we go to Mr. Congee after work, it didn't take much arm twisting. This location, in Markham, hasn't been open very long, maybe about a month. It has a bright, very attractive interior with classy furniture and fixtures. They even have private rooms for small groups. Very nice! We ordered from their Afternoon Tea Combo menu - Grilled Squid Skewers, Deep Fried Chicken Wings in Dry Fish Sauce, Fried Chili Turnip Patties, and Fried Rice Noodle w/Beef & Soya Sauce. Everything was good but the squid stood out as our favourite. It was perfectly cooked and very flavourful. Beverages were included so we chose the Fresh Red Bean Freeze with Ice Cream, and Iced Pineapple drink. Both were very refreshing. With their good food, decent prices, very attractive decor, and good service, Mr. Congee is definitely worthy of a return visit!

    Cantonese Chow Mein, Fried Turnip, Seafood Congee, Fried Oysters!
    Michelle S.

    Cantonese Chow Mein was pretty flavourful. All other dishes were above average. Fried Oysters at $25.50 were fairly small and the onion, green pepper sauce soften up the crunchiness. I would not order this again.

    This restaurant has very good environment, lovely chairs, good lighting Food is good like Richmond Hill location Parking is not pad at the plaza around 1130am Saturday Staff friendly, really like that they push a cart to delivery food, makes it safe for customer and staff

    Came by on a nice quiet week night for a bowl of comfy noodles. We had the stir fried pork on their…read moreregular hand pulled noodles to start. It was really oily, though the noodles were really nice and chewy. I found the pool of oil quite difficult to get past though. Next we got the classic beef noodles. We went for the flat, soft noodles which were great. As they state though, it gets really soft and mushy after a bit, so I recommend maybe sticking with the regular chewy noodles. The beef was soft and the radish was sweet. The soup base was comforting in a way but also very heavily salty. I couldn't tell if there was just a lot of MSG in there, but I couldn't sip on the soup much. We also ordered the shan xin bao, which is a fried soup dumpling of sorts. The breading was really thick and the soup was quite sweet. Not really the taste we were use to. We also got the pig ear and cucumbers cold dish. This was absolutely swimming in oil as well. They chop up black bean in there for flavour and it just added a really bitter taste. We didn't end up touching most of this, opting to bring it home, rinse it, and re-season it ourselves instead so the food wouldn't be wasted. All in all, the service is nice. I think the baked rice could be worth a try, but there's a lot of great noodle options in the area I personally prefer. As always, give it a try! They have a lot of great reviews on Yelp, so it potentially just doesn't suit my preferences.

    Big Beef Bowl Hand-Pulled Noodle is such a long standing spot in Markham for a good reason…read more Their lunch is tasty, fast, and inexpensive. $25 lunch combo for two people (Mon, Tues, and Thurs, opens at 11AM). It comes with 1 hot clay pot rice, 1 soup noodle, and a decent sized snack. A few choices for each of these items. Check the menu out. Honestly can't ask for more and this is why it gets jam packed easily at lunch time. Good news is that people are usually eat-and-go without sticking around for long. So even with the crowd, you might be able to get a seat in 10~15 min during the busiest time. Alternatively, quite a bit of people simply call-in for takeout's and Uber. Awesome price-value, decent comfort food with great taste, jam-packed at lunch time. Not a bad choice.

They also have tomato base, spicy or other options if you're not a fan of fish, but my favorite is probably the original fish broth base. It comes with pieces of white fish. You can also switch it up and have it come with other ingredients such as fish tofu, or brisket. Definitely recommend to come try. There is a bit of a wait often when I come on the weekend but service is quick and speedy, in a typical hk-Asian style. The space is also a converted house so the layout is a bit odd and a bit hot in some corners, but manageable. If you cannot do steep steps, ask the servers to have you seated on the main level.
