Service was disappointing. It was difficult to get the staff's attention because they seemed busy chatting with each other most of the time. Overall and okay meal but probably not somewhere I'd return to unless friends wanted to eat here.

First visit here. This place has been on my 'to try' list…read more On entry, we were quickly attended to. Luckily we were early so got seated right away. A little later, there was a little wait. Service: Friendly but not very attentive. We had some of our 'test' dishes, the ones we use to compare. Mapo Tofu. 2/5. The tofu was fresh. The pork was very sparse and it was over thickened. It was almost jelly. Let's just say, it was like when you have a cold. Beef rice noodle with black bean sauce. 4/5. This dish had a good 'wok hei' flavour. This dish was also over thickened. The prices are reasonable especially for these days. If they can ease up on the corn starch/thickener, it could be much better. I will give this place another try.

I loved my Braised beef noodle soup at Orient Express, Scarborough!…read more Absolutely delicious and beautiful to look at! The beef was so tender and rich with flavour as was the broth, bok choy, leeks and coriander. The fresh thin wide noodles were delicious too. I was so amazed at the skill and speed of watching hand-pulled noodles being made! They came from a small slab of dough in less than 60 seconds! You can choose from nine different shapes and sizes of noodles and watch someone hand-pull them through a glass window! So cool! This was a lot of food so I could only finish half and took the rest home. They have so many other dishes I want to try so I'll be back. Highly recommend! Big thanks to my server Joewin who helped make my first visit so welcoming and memorable! The service and meal arrived super fast because I arrived 11:30am on a Monday before lunch crowd. Very nice spacious restaurant.

This isn't my favorite hand pulled noodle place, but it's good enough that I end up coming here…read moreoften. The hand pulled noodle soups are consistently good. The broth is rich and beefy and the noodles are chewy. It also comes out very fast. The lamb skewers are decent. Not amazing, but good enough. The stand out items for me are the stir fry cabbage and stir fry beef and green onion. Both were very tasty and had generous servings.

Tried this spot since it's close to home, and overall the food didn't disappoint. Service was…read moremostly good except they started cleaning before we even left which wasn't the best experience. Interior wasn't too fancy and I didn't have a problem with that. We started with the hot & sour soup which had huge portion, enough for 4-5 people. The flavor was decent, though it didn't have a lot of chicken pieces. Then we tried the spicy pork chop, which were hesitant to order but so glad we did because it was so good! Perfectly crispy with just the right amount of spice. The egg and shrimp fried rice was alright but could've used a bit more seasoning. The only real letdown was the chili fish. The pieces were overly crispy with too much batter and hardly any fish inside. I wouldn't recommend trying it. Ended the night with fortune cookies!

I've been looking forward to try this place for awhile . Unfortunately it was a disappointment…read more Ordered: - Crispy Pad Thai with chicken : chicken was very limited ( there was more tofu ) and extremely dry. Portion was very small for the price $18. Noodles were not crispy and super oily/ soggy - granted I ordered take out. It tasted like the soggy won ton chips in a noodle dish :S - Khao Soi- this had to be the most authentic tasting dish . I'm not a fan of curry and thought this tasted not bad. Portion again was smaller than other places we've been to - KHAO PAD KA PRAO- this tasted like Chinese fried rice with super dry as sand beef. Taste wise was not bad but not authentic Thai and not what I expected. Again not worth it for the price point $19

Their Veg Manchurian gravy is a must-try, packed with rich garlic flavors. High recommend trying Veg Chowmein as the one we had was super spicy. Though Hot & Sour was highly recommended by others we found it too tangy and super strong in flavours. The service here is super quick and ambience is okish. It's more like dinner vibes in terms of ambience. Pro tip: they offer a 10% cash discount on takeout!

Hakka Passion, located at Harwood and Bayly, is a restaurant that I've been meaning to try for a…read morewhile but never had the opportunity until now. They specialize in Indian style Hakka Chinese food. I tried one of their specials, Manchurian Chicken Lunch Special w/Spring Roll, for only $9.25. I got an upgrade to Fried Rice instead of white rice. There was also the option to have it dry or saucy. I always choose saucy. It didn't take long for my order to be prepared, despite a steady stream of customers, including pickup orders. The food looked good, and it tasted really good. The chicken had good flavour and a nice crispy texture. The fried rice was also quite good. The lunch special includes a choice of spring roll or a drink. I chose the spring roll, also very crispy and tasty. The service was very good, friendly and efficient. Their menu is quite large, with many choices, including Thai dishes. I will definitely be back to try more!

We got the Lapp salad, beef pad Thai and chicken khao soi. Everything was so tasty and flavourful. My favourite was the khao soi with a lot of sauce that I can take home and have with rice. The mango sticky rice was great too with warm sticky rice. All the portion we had was great with a lot of meat. I will definitely come back!

Busy place for dinner (they close after lunch to prep for evening service). Great food…read more Got the pad see ew. Noodles came out piping hot, perfectly chewy and with a generous amount of huge pieces of chicken. The pad see mao was so fragrant with the basil leaf. Both had thick crunchy vegetables to contrast the chewy noodle. The beef was nice and tender. Who doesnt love a good crispy chicken skin?! For $6, we got a huge portion of chicken skin, we almost couldnt believe it. Thought they brought out the next size up by mistake. It came with a pickled cucumber vinegary sauce that was delicious when used to soak the white rice that came with the pad gra prow (which was super spicy thanks to the heavy use of Thai chill). The chicken nuggets were okay, wish they were less dense. The pineapple fried rice had notes of curry, lots of cashew and the juiciest chunks of pineapple. Great service despite the server spilling fish sauce on my arms and pants. But overall would visit again.

Started coming to Wuhan Noodle during the pandemic, partly because of the name (yeah, I was…read morecurious), but mostly because the food turned out to be seriously good. I still find myself coming back every now and then. It's a cozy little spot with super friendly staff who genuinely try to make sure you're happy with your meal. Nothing fancy, just low-key comfort food that hits the spot. My usual go-tos are the Wuhan Dry Noodles and the Beef Noodle Soup. I always tell them to make it as spicy as possible, which I love, but probably not for everyone. This time around, I stuck with the Wuhan Dry Noodles, and as always, they were perfectly satisfying with that serious heat I crave. We also shared Siu Mai this time. Not the best I've ever had, but honestly, that's not why I keep coming back. It's all about that simple, hearty vibe and the kind of food that just warms you up. No regrets here.

Clean environment and tables. Service is friendly. Food piping hot. It was brought out 15 minutes after ordering. Not bad. I would return for a quick bite.

The last time we ordered it was very underwhelming [they were very very busy], so I was hesitant to get takeout again - BUT IM SO GLAD WE DID! We have friends in town and we ordered: 1.

Thank you Hakka Bistro - we look forward to another great meal! ***PREVIOUS VISIT FEB 2026: We love going here for our Hakka cravings but tonight didn't hit the mark for us. We had 4 items for take out. 1. Sweet/sour chicken $14 [1/5] sliced chicken*, about a handful or 2 of chopped veggies (bell peppers, onions and broccoli) drowned in s/s sauce that resembles the grocery store red ones. The chicken wasn't breaded - and it was quite dry. Perhaps it could be mentioned in the menu the chicken is not* breaded? Generous amounts of sauce for the steamed rice though. 2. Chili beef w.gravy $14 [4/5] Also very generous on the gravy here as it goes amazing with the steamed rice! Dial back on the ginger here if you cant take the heat. 3. Hakka style chowmein w.egg $12 +$2 egg [3/5] This is the only place where you actually get eggs when its the main protein in the dish! Its usually got more flavorful spices but today it only tasted spicy... 4. Manchurian style fried rice w.chicken $12 +$2 chkn [3/5] similarly to the noodles, this also lacked that kick of flavorful spices.. Overall today the dishes were missing that wok taste and kick of flavor. Gotta note it was about 8pm on a Sunday night - its a busy dinner rush for the team. Thank you Hakka Bistro, until next time!
