    New Storefront with New Chinese Name as of Janurary 2014
    Jennifer K.

    3.5 Stars Tasty House should be call the "New" Tasty House. A brand new menu, A complete makeover, A new Chinese name... Tasty House is not a Hong Kong Style Cafe anymore but more of a Congee/Noodle/Rice Roll restaurant. There are quite a few new Chinese restaurants in the area specialized in this house made steamed rice roll and Tasty House is one of the better ones! I love how the texture of the rice roll has a little more chewy texture. Plain Rice Roll ($1.99) Fisherman Congee ($4.99) Spicy Ox Tail ($3.99) The food we ordered were all quite good. Come before 11 am and you can pick any congee with any rice roll for $4.99 as breakfast special! This is a good deal! Most of the other noodles dishes are around $5 or so and comes with a soy milk drink. Tasty House is a good place to come for some congee and rice roll and even some soup noodle. at a good price! Cash Only!

    We were an accidental patron. The dim-sum place 3 doors down was renovating, and we needed some grub. So we sheepishly slid into this unassuming place. It looks clean and elementary, and a sneak peak at the somewhat messy kitchen does not pleasantly impress one, but the two noodle dishes we ordered were very decent, while the yu-choi in oyster sauce tasted fresh. Their 'cannelloni" with shrimp is different from the usual, as these are not cannelloni at all, since the shrimps sit on TOP. They have great prices, although I was momentarily embarrassed when I went to pay - this is the place where I found out they (and other businesses) no longer take pennies. The penny is an obsolete Canadian currency unit, apparently! p.s. my friend Jennifer K. wrote a great review, I only just found out (as she usually does), but just to be clear, what she said about the noodle dishes being $5 and free soy milk drink apply ONLY to the breakfast specials. Also, they have free wifi, but don't take credit cards. Pretty good trade.

    Cheap eats here! My parents love coming here for Hong Kong style food. We got pork rice roll, congee, and beef noodle. I love the rice rolls as they are different from the traditional rice rolls. The pork congee was okay. The noodles came with a decent amount of beef and lots of noodles. The food here is really good for the price you pay for! We paid around $20 for 3 people worth of food, and we were super full. Service is okay here. Can't really expect much from a chinese restaurant.

    Ordered their special breakfast combo (supreme congee and rice roll with pork) and rice roll in casserole with beef. Their rice roll are more chewy than other restaurants which I like it but overall taste was very blend.

    Ok Boy H.

    Very affordable. Definately recommend the congee and rice rolls. $5.99 special every Monday to Friday from 8am to 11am-one congee and one rice roll.

    Pork blood congee

    Great food! My fiancé and I definitely under estimated how cooking everything was. I order noodle ribs stone pot, plain noodle roll, fresh shrimp noodle roll, and pork blood congee. After the congee and two rolls we were stuffed! The noodles are all freshly made, very chewy and bouncy. The ribs were so tender the meat fell off the bones. The congee was so flavorful as well! The success they use for all dishes were perfect! I was thirsty after eating but I think it was on the stone pot sauce cause the congee and the noodles I was fine. Overall I enjoyed the food ND would definitely. come back cause I heard the rice stone pot is delish!

    Peggy K.

    $5 breakfast for a large bowl of congee plus a plate of steamed rice rolls! Went here early this morning with 3 Toronto friends. Definitely a filling breakfast - ask for containers if you don't want to waste the food. Honestly could have split one breakfast special with another person since no one at my table finished their food. Place opens at 8 AM, though it still says 7 AM on the menu. The TVs here have TVB playing in the background. They have breakfast sandwiches here as well. Plenty of parking too.

    This the the Second time honestly their food is really good but they put too munch msg!!! Also the place is not that clean and their staff is rude! Today I just ask for a ice water but they give me a cup used of ice water ( other customer left) and they said is ok because the customer don't drink it

    Bittermelon with egg

    This is my parent's new favourite breakfast joint. $4.99 gets you a bowl of congee and an order of rice rolls. For tonight's dinner, we ordered the chicken and mushroom clay pot rice (20 min wait - the scorched rice at the end was AMAZING!, rice rolls with beef brisket and bittermelon with egg. Wasn't expecting much as this is a HK style cafe, but the price point, flavours and quick service earned its 4 stars! FYI the fresh soy based rice rolls have a bit of a chew to it ~ I really like the texture.

    Clay pot rice!! Guilin style beef and ribs with black bean sauce. So delicious
    Leanne W.

    My go-to place when I am craving rice roll and a bowl of hot congee on the weekend. Breakfast hour is from 7am to 11am, that means you get an order of riceroll and a congee for only 5 bucks plus tax! I live about 15 mins away, but I would trek here on weekends to grab breakfast for my family. I recommend ordering ahead and do take-out during breakfast hours because this place is always packed! Service can be slow if you are dining in. Other than breakfasts, I also like the Canton Fried Noodles and Guilin Vermincelli when i'm here for lunch/dinner, very good price and portions are huge.

    That chilli pepper stuck out like a devils horn
    Nate Y.

    not bad, has a very homey feeling in a way. they have homemade ricerolls, but not the same as the ones you get at dimsum. its quite different. The only problem is that the servings are small. guilin noodles are okay, not too bad. comes out in a big bowl but i did not feel full after i ate it. still very worth it in my opinion.

Ham & Egg Sandwich Comes with your choice of drink. Milk tea, coffee with tea, lemon tea, lemon water. We found the sandwich to be a step up compared to other places that serve similar food. The eggs were made just right and they gave ample servings of ham. Nice balance. LM17 - Foong Shing Dumpling Noodle (3 pcs) also comes with your choice of drink. Milk tea for the win. Sugar is provided at the table to sweeten the tea yourself which I prefer to do. Next we chose from the Signature Soup Noodles Menu. FN28 - Special Fish Soup Rice Vermicelli Fish slices, fish balls, fish tofu & dace fish cakes. We substituted rice vermicelli with yellow wonton noodles to see if it was better but would prefer to go with vermicelli. The soup came with cilantro, green onions, bean sprouts, in a very natural tasting, rich filling peppery yet sweet fish broth. A nice alternative to the traditional classic soups. For dessert we shared Hong Kong-style French Toast. TB03 - Chunky French Toast Bites. The French toast bread was so light and fluffy, cut into towering square pieces, held together with a smudge of peanut butter and drizzled with just the right amount of sweet condensed milk. Under new management they seem to have moved towards a menu expansion to include more pan-Asian dishes. Indonesian, Vietnamese, Singaporean, Shunde, Guangdong region as well as typical Hong Kong fare.

It was a let down of all aspects unfortunately - from service, to food quality, and it's worth. Upon arriving and dining here, I was surprised to see the place pretty empty. All the other times I've been here it was pretty packed. The severs were unfortunately not very friendly at all, from taking our orders, to bringing our food, down to paying for the bill. Not a smile was once seen from any of the serve staff. The food was okay with portions being smaller than what I remember it to be and prices higher than what a usual HK cafe should be as well. Our chicken instant noodle with green onion and ginger was drowning in A LOT of oil - although tasty, it was not pleasant to eat since it was so greasy. Overall, our party of 8 found the entire meal to be super expensive for the food quality and options. It was quite a hefty bill tbh. Fortunately, after I visited I did see that they posted online that they are under new management and have changes to their business. So hope they rejig their food, pricing and service.

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.

A very friendly gentleman brought out the menu and some tea as we scanned the well-priced lunch menu. Since we both came for chili chicken, we tried 2 versions of this lunch special; one on crispy chow mien (extra) with a soft drink and one with hot and sour soup and steamed rice. The lunch combos come with a spring roll and a choice of soup or a soft drink and was around $14. Our food came out pretty quickly and it was piping hot which is always great! The hot and sour soup was very good and it actually had a nice kick to it with chunky tofu and veggies morsels. My friend took a spoonful and found it to be too spicy for her, but I have a decent heat tolerance and it tasted perfect for my palate. The chili chicken on our lunch looked equally good, but fell short as the chicken pieces were small, dry and tasted of old frying oil which was unfortunate because the gravy was so good. Maybe next time, I will try a different protein to see if that can earn the restaurant the rest of the stars. Looking forward to coming back to try other items here soon!

There were two other groups already eating before we all arrived. The staff were very nice and pleasant and even adjusted all their portion sizes so that instead of serving 13 pieces as the default they would give us 14 so that everyone had one. We ordered the wonton noodles, crispy breaded shrimp balls, chilli chicken, chilli fish, preserved lime fish, vermicelli, and white rice. Overall, the flavours were good but nothing blew me away. This is your standard Chinese Hakka restaurant but with very accommodating service.
