    Huge portions. Attentive table service. GREAT VALUE. You'll eat twice or three times from one order. Thanks Chris. Solid choice in Markham. Everything was DELICIOUS. The next time we'll go with one protein and one veg. Huge servings. A warm, inviting and welcoming place. Reminds me of those wonderful, smaller, family run/owned restaurants in HKG. The restrooms are down a fairly steep staircase. Not wheelchair accessible for anyone with mobility issues.

    Needed a quick lunch and remembered seeing some reviews on this restaurant so decided to give it a try since I was in the area. The decor is tired. This the basic restaurant with no frills. I ordered the Rice Noodle with Beef and Black bean. While it was okay, there wasn't any black bean taste. You also receive an individual soup. This was ok. Service wasn't very friendly. Serving size and prices are reasonable.

    There's a hidden gem of a Chinese restaurant near Markham Rd and Hwy 7 that has been a longtime favourite of mine. It's called MY Restaurant and their offerings include traditional Hakka cuisine, NOT the Indian style Hakka food that's popular in the GTA. This is more old-school, similar to what I grew up with. Their dining room recently reopened after a long period of doing takeout only, due to COVID. Our group of eleven, including my aunt, uncle, and their friends dropped in for lunch. Almost all of our group has never heard of this place but, in the end, they all loved the food! Our dishes included * Salted Fish and Chicken Fried Rice * Cantonese Chow Mein * Pork Belly with Preserved Vegetables * Beef Brisket with Turnip * Chicken with Green Bean * Egg Plant with Minced Pork * Beef with Bitter Melon * Fish Fillet with Vegetable * Salt & Pepper Pork Chop * Sizzling Chicken in Hot Pot A simple but very tasty house soup, and rice were included. Every dish had great flavour and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Our bill worked out to just under $12 each, plus gratuity. That is a bargain for what we had! I know they'll all be back to try more!

    Half an order when its part of 2 dish menu. Ridiculously tough and dry!

    I will not even give a star rating. Try out their take oit and when I got home, its just half an order! And its dry and overcooked.

    Like Congee Wong but in a greasy spoon kinda way! Gave this place a try due to my Yelp friends positive reviews and they were right, good food, portions and prices. Take out suggested: I would stick to take out only, as it's small, crowded, noisy and has that needed to be deep cleaned look. The floor was greasy slippery on way in and don't even try to bring Stroller through here you'll get stuck. Very limited parking in this plaza. Food: Comparable menu and taste to Congee Wong/queen,but for less. Really like their Deep fried squid with spicy salt, it's just mild Spice at best. Prices for combo same or better than First Markham Place Food Court. Phoning in? it's loud here, as phone is near tv and beside kitchen, English is ok-limited but friendly and patient, just talk loud and slowly. Delivery- $6 extra with minimum $35 order Take out cash deal- 10% off orders over $35 Before tax Would come back to try the wall specials next time.

    Great local Chinese comfort food, with huge portions and small dollar signs. We ordered the sticky rice fried rice/ salted fish fried rice. Both fried rice were good and really filling, but the salted fish had a strong smell but also pockets of umami. Only concern is that I'm not sure why its called a Thai/Hakka restaurant as MY restaurant seems more like a typical canto restaurant.

    Okay, so my review may be a little bias because I liked going to Maydoh back in the day. There is just something about the Baked Bolognese & Cheese here that makes it better than other HK style cafes. I haven't been back to Maydoh in years and was not aware that they had sold it and this was the new restaurant they opened ( I was a little slow to the news). So, I definitely had expectations when going to MY Restaurant over the weekend. I used my GPS to get there but it was still kind of hard to find. There is limited parking in the front but additional parking at the back of the building and across the street at the Tim Horton's plaza. It may be a little bigger than Maydoh but it's still a small restaurant and was at full capacity after I sat down (we took the last free table and there was a line up after us). I think it's a family run restaurant and I even recognized the server from Laidoh at Splendid China Tower. Specials include your main course + soup + coffee or milk tea. We tried to order the NY Steak with Black Pepper Sauce but they were sold out of it from the night before. They also didn't have the cream soup. I'm sure this doesn't happen often... but you should always be fully stocked to serve your clients. With restaurants like this, you can expect a ratio of 80% carbs (usually rice or spaghetti). Hence, the big portions. Good if you're bulking! BBQ Pork with Noodles - I didn't try it but the BBQ Pork looked delicious and it was a huge serving, like with everything else. My friend couldn't finish it and had to get it packed. Baked Bolognese & Cheese on Spaghetti - Something about this dish is so nostalgic! It's a LOT of spaghetti but perfect sauce to pasta ratio. By the time I finished eating, it looked like I had barely touched the dish (but I also had to juggle my vegetable soup and milk tea)! I packed it and my boyfriend and I finished it for dinner. It lasted THREE meals! Chicken with Black Pepper Sauce with Spaghetti - A big plate of rice but the chicken was also a decent size. To my surprise, the chicken was tender and actually made quite well. My BF was pretty impressed with the texture too. Our total came to $30, but because we also ordered an extra soup and there was an extra charge for iced milk tea. Overall, it's good for what it is (a simple, HK style cafe) and I will be back to try other dishes.

    3 star for food + 0.5 star for value + 0.5 star for being in my hood MY Restaurant has now becomes my to go hole in the wall restaurant for cheap eats! Generous portions, good value and no frills experience. Don't expect anything fancy. Just simple ingredients and home style cooking. Great to have something affordable in this neighborhood. Scarborough pricing in Markham. I hope they will be around for awhile at this price point.

    Reason for Visit: Just discovered this gem. I don't know how I never heard of this place for the longest time. Menu: This place actually has very good prices. Most combos are ~$10 max / person. My goodness. So prices are great to start. So the food came, we got their 2 people combo with curry beef and fried chicken. Portions were huge! I never saw that much meat in a curry dish. I swear half the plate was beef. This is some high value stuff. I will say their curry is spicier than most places, probably cause they are Hakka in origin. The fried popcorn chicken came and again that was huge. I was immediately thinking of how I paid almost the same price other day at Sansotei for a small cup of popcorn chicken. The taste was fantastic! Not too salty, flavorful and super crispy. Service: The waitresses work fast! I am very impressed and they also like to have chats with some repeated customers. They recognize you if you come in often. I like that more personal service. Atmosphere: Small place and busy. Good luck waiting if you have a group of 6 of more people. Overall: This is my new go to Chinese restaurant if I'm in the area. The prices are amazing, portions are ridiculously huge and food tastes great. Highly recommended!!!

    4.5 Pros: Great Value Awesome vibe Great Staff Cons: Not too many seats Decor very old school MY Restaurant is one of the reasons I love Yelp so much. Without Yelp, I would of never known this place existed. This is my definition of a hidden gem. My restaurant ticks off all the things I want in a HK style cafe. As long as you don't mind the old school look, this is a place for all HK style cafe fans. This place is tucked in a small plaza. There would be no way you would know about this place without something like Yelp. Walking in, there are a few seats, but the place is definitely on the small side. There are a couple of booths and a large table in the middle. The seating is definitely tight here. Good thing is turnover is really quick in a place like this so you won't have too wait too long for a table. One of my biggest rants with Chinese businesses is if they lack English on the menu. I'm a firm believer that you should have English menus available no matter what type language is predominantly spoken. My restaurant has English for every single item they sell here. Even the daily specials have English written as well. Prices here are very good for a HK style cafe. You can expect to see prices $1-2 cheaper than others places. We had a baked pasta, bbq pork and duck on rice and a side order of wings and fries. The portions here are very generous for what you pay. Taste wise, the food is on par if not a little better with what you expect for a HK style cafe. It's a quintessential HK style cafe, decent food at a great price. Like I mentioned before, this place is old school. The decor is out of date, some things are held together by duck tape, etc. It's a no frills approach to eateries. If you're used to this kind of thing, it won't bother you at all. Come in with realistic expectations, you will be fine. This is a place that's favoured by the locals. Everyone who came in was a regular. The staff here knew them all and what they wanted. It's got a real homey diner type vibe. We were knew but the staff were very friendly and helpful. They made our kids feel real welcome as well. Overall, I loved this place. It will defeinitely be on my regular rotation eating out. Our bill came out to $29 taxes in. That was for 2 entrees with soup and drink and a side order of wings and fries. You can't beat value like that.

    Fast Dirty Cheap Chinese Food | Limited parking | Free newspaper | Thai/ Hakka/Chinese Small place at Hwy 7/ Markham Rd off on the (north) side. Serves a variety of Chinese food; combos available just like your typical HK cafes. It's okay Chinese food if you're just looking for a quick fix but being in the Markham area, there's a ton other places nearby with better quality at the same price. The floor was dirty and greasy. My soup noodle bowl was plated and when I removed the bowl I saw a pubic-hair like curly hair on it. I hope it was just someone with short curly hair in the kitchen. Also when I came into the restaurant the server gave me a long odd stare. Overall the food wasn't amazing. Nothing special. It was okay. I wouldn't purposely come back for anything.

    Ordered a sandwich and realized half of the bread turned bad with mold...Which is Pretty obvious . they still serve that to customers.

    I've gotten taken out from MY restaurant a number of times. Tonight my wife ordered Cantonese chow mein, Shanghai style fried noodle, Veggie fried rice and a large fish congee. MY Restaurant is very much a hole in the wall-old school- no frills-greasy spoon, borne from days gone by. Food is canto cuisine and has very much many of the same/similar type dishes you can find at the more popular Congee Queen. Prices are much more reasonable and portions are just as fair. If you are fixing for canto food that tastes great and with reasonable prices then look no further than MY Restuarant. Note that prices have recently updated and I've posted the new menu. Also, cash only (no discount - support local!)

The use of traditional elements, paper-cut window designs, red Spring Festival couplets, old-style newspaper wall coverings, and exposed brick adds a strong sense of nostalgia. It feels immersive and intentional, almost like stepping into a countryside home in Dongbei rather than a typical restaurant. The décor isn't fancy, but it's rich in cultural detail and warmth, perfectly matching the hearty, comforting style of Northeast Chinese cuisine. The space is unique and perfect for taking photos. The food here is very generous. We ordered the 4-person set with two side pots. Tomato Braised Beef Brisket and Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms and the portions were huge. Both pots arrived steaming hot and filled to the brim, clearly meant for sharing. The braised beef was rich and hearty, while the chicken pot was comforting and full of flavor, making it perfect for group dining or cold weather meals. Combined with the rustic, traditional décor, it really feels like authentic Northeast Chinese comfort food. The food and atmosphere were excellent, though the service was a bit lacking. Prices are reasonable for the generous portion sizes and the unique restaurant décor.

The lid on my shredded potato salad wasn't on properly and the sauce leaked through my Fantuan bag. The food gets five stars. Sadly, the lid on my potato salad wasn't securely on the container. I had my food in my insulated bag, so the sauce leaked into the Fantuan bag and my insulated bag. Luckily, my car was fine. As a result, my rating is four stars. I wanted to try a new eatery. I looked at my Fantuan app and noticed He Bei Chinese Cuisine. It had dumplings and snacks that I enjoy, so I said yes to placing a dinner order from this eatery. I ordered these items: - Pork and chive steamed dumplings (large has 14 dumplings) - Tea eggs - Shredded potato salad On Fantuan, when you purchase $15 worth of food, you get the shredded potato salad for a cent. Deal! After placing my order near my home, I drove over to this eatery. The drive was ten minutes. I was given an estimated time of fifteen minutes. It was ready in ten minutes. I had no problem finding this eatery. There was plenty of parking. I pulled into a spot and walked in. I saw the Yubu sign. My heart sank, as I loved the Korean tofu pockets from this joint. I liked seeing places to sit down and eat at He Bei. Nice! A woman behind the counter came over. I said that I had a Fantuan order. She talked to me in Mandarin. I don't understand it, but we were fine communicating with each other in our languages. She pointed out the blue Fantuan bag on the table behind me. I thanked her and wished her a nice day. She said thanks right back. I put my food in my insulated bag. With the leak, I managed to launder the Fantuan bag and clean my insulated bag. After I cleaned up, I had dinner at home. The food was amazing and filling! I loved the shredded potato salad. Sure, a lot of the sesame-soy sauce was gone. However, it tasted yummy. It was worth the cent! The steamed pork and chive dumplings were so good. I didn't dunk them in soy sauce. The filling had so much moisture that I felt like I was eating soup dumplings. The filling had yummy flavour and the dumplings were steamed to perfection. Excellent! You can buy frozen dumplings from this place. I'll need to do it. The tea eggs were the perfect snack while streaming hockey games. I peeled the shells off both of them. The eggs were cracked to allow the amazing soy-based sauce to marinate and get into the eggs. Delicious! I'm a fan. I'll take a closer look at the lids on my food next time. I'm glad that I put food in my insulated bag. It saved cleaning my car's upholstery! (59)

Since this Chef 88 is opened until 1am, I think this place will get busier as the night progresses. We weren't super hungry as well ate something for tea time. So we ordered Maggi Lobster (~3lbs) for $34/lb, and stir fried beef with Chinese broccoli (gai lan). The lobster was cooked perfectly, with the Maggi sauce not being too salty. They definitely gave us all the pieces of the 3lbs lobster. The gai lan had a bitter aftertaste, which is common for this vegetable. I wished they had a way to get rid of that. They were generous with the amount of beef and was well marinated. The cut wasn't that great, but that is to be expected. I don't think they added much MSG or at least used good quality ones, as we did not feel overly thirsty later in the evening. They give free daily soup and dessert. What we were most impressive was with the service. The waiters were very attentive, changing our plates twice during our 1ish hour meal. The also gave us wet wipes and more napkins without us requesting it. They even offered us additional soup, which we declined as we were quite full.

    Overall this place deserves 5 stars. It usually doesn't disappoint…read more I've been coming here for literally over 30 years. And the food is top notch. But I gave it 4 stars because of the experience yesterday. The food was substandard on this visit. I ordered 1. Jumbo seafood congee (taste was bland) 2. Grouper and tofu hot pot (best of all 4) 3. Black bean and beef Hofun (seriously lacking in quality) 4. Chinese dough fritters (awesome as always) I would say I was 50% satisfied with the meal. But I will be back as I said this place hardly disappoints and Even with this experience it's still an easy recommendation to come here I hope next time the quality is up to their old 30 year standards.

My childhood fave was the familiar taste of century egg and shredded pork congee which we often ate with 油条 a freshly fried dough. B17 - Shredded Pork & Preserved Egg Congee. Good value. Fast service. Always tasty. Congee Wong is generous with their soup ingredients compared to other congee restaurants. Popo and Gunggung's favourite soup was D9 - Shrimp Dumpling Noodle in Soup. Rice noodles were made right and they were not overcooked. They preferred it with a bit of gai lan. P72 - Vegetable with Oyster Sauce. The veggies were slightly overcooked but still edible. This establishment has been here for years. Some people might find the decor outdated but it holds special memories to many of us patrons.

    Today, tried a newly renovated place for lunch (dim sum), let me tell you this, it was a real…read moredisappointment. When they provided with a table it was right next to an exterior door, with people going in and out. The was a cold draft, we even had to tell the hostess/manager, if they could provide a divider to divert the draft from hitting our table. We ordered 9 dim sum dishes, one be Roasted Pig Mixed Cold Jellyfish, which was $23.80. I had the idea that it would be a fair portion. When it came, I was shocked, it was only 6 pieces of Roasted Pig. When I spoke with the manager about the portion size, he commented "for that price it is fair". There was not apologies and walked away, nor was it written on the menu. If I had known it was only 6 pieces (size of your index and middle finger put together). I would not have ordered it. If you want to have Roasted Pig, you can get better deals else where. Also, ordered Marinated Chicken Feet for $13.98, when it came to table, it was also a disappointment, part of the chicken feet was dark in colour, not even sure if it was even edible or not. Another dim sum dish that I have order was the steamed chicken with fish maw. The chicken was okay, but there was only two small pieces of fish maw, (the size of each piece was 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch). The order 6 dim sum dishes that was order was mediocre, tasted better from other Dim Sum restaurant. When I received the bill for the meal it came out to be $119.50, they even had included the tip. They didn't even give me an option weather a tip was even worthy. I will definitely not be returning to this place. I definitely do not recommend anyone to come to this restaurant. I would consider blacklisting this restaurant. It's simply deceiving customers. 今天去一家新裝修的點心店吃午飯,真是太失望了。他們為我們安排的桌子緊鄰外門,進進出出的人絡繹不絕。冷風直吹,我們甚至得跟領位員/經理說能不能加個隔板擋風。我們點了九道點心,其中一道是烤乳豬配涼拌海蜇,價格是23.8美元。我以為分量應該挺足的。結果端上來的時候,我大吃一驚,烤乳豬隻有六塊!我跟經理說了分量的問題,他居然說「這個價錢算合理」。他既沒有道歉,也沒有在菜單上寫明,就直接走開了。如果我知道只有六塊(大概食指和中指並排那麼大),我肯定不會點這道菜。想吃烤乳豬的話,去別的地方一定能找到更划算的。我還點了13.98美元醃漬的雞爪,端上來後也很失望,雞爪有一部分顏色發黑,我甚至懷疑它能不能吃。我點的另一道點心是魚肚蒸雞,雞肉還可以,但是魚肚只有兩小塊(每塊只有半英寸見方)。我點的這六道點心味道平平,不如其他點心店的好吃。結帳時,帳單竟然高達119.50美元,還包含了小費。他們甚至都沒問我是否該給小費。我絕對不會再來這家店了。我絕對不推薦任何人來這家餐廳。我會考慮把這家餐廳封鎖。他們簡直就是在欺騙顧客。

    New Century will feed a large group. Their lobster, Dungeness crab, and sea bass combo for eight…read more($798) would satisfy ten or twelve. The individual New Century slow boiled soup is hardest to share but secure some empty bowls and you can divide the hefty portion. In the winter, there's a silkiness to the piping hot consommé that sooths a dry throat and has an umami essence infused with abalone, ginseng, and pork. There's plenty to choose from in the house signature combo platter including roasted duck, soy sauce chicken, BBQ pork, pork slices, and seaweed salad. Saving my stomach for the later dishes, I had a taste of the duck (a good start with crispy skin) and BBQ pork (satisfactory and well flavoured). With the generous portion of chicken in the combo platter, the slow cooked chicken with abalone broth seemed like overkill. I've never been a huge fan of this dish that's served cold since I prefer chicken hot. Still, I understand it's the jelly layer between the skin and meat that people enjoy. And to be fair, the chicken was tender, and New Century certainly didn't skimp on the ginger and scallion oil. For those who tend to fill-up before the "main dishes", the stars of the combo arrive mid-meal. The stir-fried Vancouver crabs with silver fish in HK style spicy sauce needs to be eaten at arrival as the crunchy coating is best straight from the fryer. And despite not looking spicy, the dish has a light heat that permeates in the background. Additionally, the crab was fresh and meaty, cooked well so it remained delicately flakey. The amount of sweet and sticky sauce used in the stir-fried lobsters with scallion in Maggie sauce was well balanced, lightly covering the crustaceans. Both lobsters were substantial; even after eating many pieces, we still had plenty of leftovers. This is a long review head to Gastro World for the rest.

    New sauerkraut fish soup spot in Markham…read more A chain from asia that has finally made it's way to Markham. They are known for their sauerkraut fish soup that comes with unlimited self serve rice on the side. Servers were attentive, spacing of the seating and tables were tight. Often times people kept brushing up against my chair while getting up to go get their rounds of rice. Although not a deal breaker, was annoying while trying to enjoy your food. The portions are big enough for 2 if you get a large, but since it was our first time we wanted to try 2 different soups. Here's what we got: Chicken wings 4/5 - Came out raw the first time after we bit into it. But quickly flagged a server to let them know how this issue. They brought us a new one shortly after that was perfectly cooked, juicy and crispy on the outside. Laotan boiled fish with pickled cabbage and chili 4/5 - Their number one classic so we had to try. It's sour and spicy with the right amount of kick to it. Basa fish filets were also tasty. Came out luke warm. Princess's tomato fish 4/5 - Packed with tomato flavour. Savoury and paired well with the basa fish filet. Came with bean curd noodles as well. Came out luke warm. Easily would be a five star review if both soups that we got came out piping hot rather than lukewarm. Regardless, a great spot for a quick in and out meal.

    My friend and I were wandering around FMP trying to decide what to eat when we came across Fish…read moreWith You's November "Black Friday" deal, where for $49.99 you get 2 regular size sauerkraut fish soups pre-upgraded to snakehead, 1 half-and-half snack, and any 2 drinks. If you break it down, it's actually such a good deal: the snakehead upgrade is usually +$3 each and their handcrafted drinks run around $6. No extra charge for any of that with this combo, so... why not? I got the scallion pickled cabbage fish soup (mild spice) and my friend went for the Laotan boiled fish (a bit spicier). For the snack, we picked half Taiwanese sausage and half glutinous rice cake to get both savoury and dessert vibes. When the bowls came out, they looked huge, but the portion was kinda deceiving... it's a very wide, shallow bowl, so the amount of actual soup wasn't as generous as it looked. For a fish soup restaurant, I definitely expected a deeper bowl. But the fish itself was fresh with that nice bouncy texture, plus vermicelli and a solid amount of pickled veggies. They also have a self-serve rice station with both white rice and multigrain rice. The rice cookers even have little signs showing when a new batch is cooking, which I thought was cute and convenient. Overall, flavour wise, it was solid and the promo made it worth the visit. But I am not sure if I'd come back again.

Meaty pork strips coated with thin batter, each piece is wrapped in a glossy sauce and sprinkled with white sesame. Perfect dish to go with rice. Double Cooked Pork Slices: Classic Sichuan-style dish. The pork belly is first boiled, then stir-fried again with chili bean paste and green bell pepper. Very flavorful and savoury, another great dish to go with rice. Soy Sauce Fried Rice: One of my fav childhood dishes, and they delivered very well. It's such a huge portion that we could only finish it in two days. Service was great, considerate and friendly. They even pour water for you before you sit down and pack up the leftovers for you after you finish. You might have to wait if you don't have a reservation, but the turnaround is pretty fast.

Wait list is old school...someone writes your name and number in a notebook and you are called when your table is ready. The interior is reminiscent of the old school taverns you see in those old Chinese movies where the traveller has spent days walking or on a horse and comes upon a tavern where the interior is all wooden tables and benches. Dining style and dishes are all family style. You order a couple of dishes and then add rice. Spice level can be adjusted and even at 'less' the heat level was high. Definitely generous use of Szechwan peppercorns! Food is very flavourful and depending on preference some might find the oil level high. The clientele is mainly Mandarin speaking and if you are Asian they will immediately communicate in Mandarin with you but I did see the staff switch to English where needed. Service was patient and attentive.
