Absolutely great food, the pork and eggplant and steamed pork dumplings (which had a juicy, almost soup dumpling filling) were our absolute favourites! Menu pictures are current as of Nov 22, 2024

We heard many good things of this Chinese restaurant tucked in a suburban plaza in Burlington. The service was excellent. Friendly and attentive staff. The restaurant is fresh and clean with some nice touches. The food was excellent and authentic. Of note is the fish slices in golden broth and the pork trotted. The latter was meltingly good with a generous amount of meat. The green beans were also crispy with some heat. The black fungus was a nice appetizer. We definitely want to try more dishes.

So happy this place opened in Burlington/Oakville area. The owners are very nice and personable. This place serves authentic Chinese food with very reasonable prices that is cheaper than mississauga. We tried 锅包肉and 羊肉串which were both really good. Look forward to trying new items here again.

Finally had a chance to go to He He restaurant. It's definitely not like the westernized chinese food you get in Burlington - most dishes are authentic northern chinese cuisine. The chef said he's from Harbin province in the NE. The food exceeded our expectations, we all liked everything we ordered. Super friendly family run restaurant. I snapped a photo of their take out menu but they also have some new items like fried rice, spring rolls and General Tao chicken that may be more familiar to some. I highly recommend everyone support this lovely new addition to the Burlington restaurant scene! We ordered: grilled lamb and beef skewers (not spicy), scallion pancakes, spicy fish soup, garlic bok choy, grilled lamb ribs and white rice.

Great traditional Chinese food. Prices are fair and everything is amazingly seasoned. The braised pork is something I've always missed in Burlington and glad I was able to find it here. Only small feedback is I wished the soup dumplings came with a soup spoon and potentially some vinegar dipping sauce.

The food was excellent. I highly recommend it rich in taste prepared really well very clean establishment. The service was very good. I got to talk to the owner. It’s a Family run restaurant. The owner has been cooking for six years is uncle has been cooking for 30 years. They’re new in the neighborhood. Very very good.

Incredibly delicious

December 7, 2024

I define this restaurant as a country snack bar. Its good for filling your stomach, but the quality is too average. The fish fillets in sour soup are made from frozen fish fillets, which is quite unpalatable. It is recommended that you don t order xiaolongbao, scallion pancakes, etc., they are all frozen food that is heated.

The portions are huge, we ordered one appetizer and two main dish, and had to pack 50% away. The food got served real fast and steaming. The Guobao Pork is crispy and delicious! Ground Sanxian is like Chinese poutine! The couples beef slices are a bit spicy and go well with rice.

This is the place to go if you want to taste the REAL DEAL in chinese cuisine like in China without generating more carbon footprint (like flying to China). Ingredients used are fresh with the right balance of herbs, spices and saltiness (MSG of course). I ordered four dishes (Braised Pork Trotter, Scallion Pancake, Mapo Tofu and Sweet and Sour Crispy Pork ) for take out and was happy with all of them. Portion are between average and large size. Cannot wait to try other dishes.

I was taken here by my friends Chris and Lu after a day of sailing. For the first time in my life I felt like I was eating in a true authentic Chinese Restaurant. The food was unlike anything I ve eaten before. I have done lots of travel and always look for a new place. Well I ve found it. Cannot say enough nice things about this place. Go see for yourself. Value and quality are everything. The food here was 5 star. Enjoy yourself.

The food was not great, the tables were very oily and unclean, the service was okay. But when a dish we ordered was supposed to be 10 pcs, we only received 9.

★★★
August 21, 2024

I came here after seeing a rating of 4.9, but it was actually very disappointing! The potatoes, tomatoes and beef were not cooked well, and the shrimp fried rice was too unpalatable. Like the frozen ones from Costco, the scallion pancakes are hard, neither crispy nor fragrant! Husband and wife beef slices are sweet. In other words, the elbow is quite satisfactory! Anyway I wont come again!

I passed by this Chinese restaurant with my friends yesterday and had a great experience! The environment of the restaurant is clean and tidy, and the waiters are warm and friendly. When I went there, it was just in time for the meal. Most of the tables in the restaurant were full, but it did not affect the dining experience. We ordered their gold-medal pot-roasted pork, grilled lamb chops, mutton skewers, roasted eggplant with meat sections, and a Bashu spicy pot? Not sure if thats the name The Guobao Pork is amazing. I can only say that as a Northeasterner who has been in Toronto for 8 years, this is the best Guobao Pork I have ever eaten in Canada. It is not too sweet or too hard. The fried shell on the outside accompanies the Guobao. The sweet and sour aroma of the meat directly fills the entire taste buds. The meat inside is not fried. I plan to eat it again in two days. It is so authentic. The other dishes are also outstanding. His lamb chops are delicious with the dipping sauce. My friend especially likes to eat the fries in the spicy pot. They are very crispy and match the aroma of meat and chili. He ate the whole bowl by himself. Ate both of us The price is also very cheap. We ordered a table of dishes. It cost about 30 per person. It is very cost-effective. We plan to use it as a canteen to eat in the future. I hope the boss can maintain this taste. It is really rare in the Toronto area.

A friend of ours took us to He Hes last night. One word- SUBLIME. The food was incredible. Out of this world flavour profiles that just keep giving. A dish as simple as cabbage was given new light, turning a simple vegetable into an entire palatable course all by itself. The eggplant and potato dish was unfathomable. Our friend was talking about the potatoes for the rest of his evening, even through the football game... wow, eh. The portions are great and the food is not only tasty, but so beautiful to the eye. Its truly art on your plate, in your bowl. Now, the chef... what a guy! He was so welcoming, as was the rest of the staff. Chef came to our table to see how we were doing and to make sure we were happy, satisfied customers. You could see the passion and care behind his eyes when asking about our experience. Overall, this will be a go-to spot for the future. I dont want to tell anyone about it... because its that good, and I want it to be our little hideaway. Although that being said, a restaurant this succulent, cannot go unseen. Thank you, He He!!

Super delicious, super authentic, ordered six dishes, each one is delicious, so that eat too fast forgot to take pictures Chinese friends who live in Burlington and Oakville are lucky. Today the restaurant is open for trial operation and we tried it for the first time. It s such authentic Chinese food. The boss is from Harbin. We ordered 6 dishes, including beef stew, scallion pancakes, mutton skewers, and cold salad. The shredded tofu and boiled fish are all delicious, and you can listen to familiar domestic pop songs while eating. Five-star recommendation! Forgot to mention, the price is also very reasonable!

My mom and I went today for lunch on recommendations from her friend group, and we were not disappointed at all! So glad to see an authentic and delicious Northern Chinese menu! Theyre a little light on vegetarian options, but if youre craving any sort of stewed, braised, or fried meat, they are a must-try! Braised pork trotters in crystal sugar - a ton of meat for the price, fatty but not overwhelming at all. Lamb skewers - well-marinated and spiced, with just the right amount of cumin. The rest was similarly delicious, and if youre a fan of eggplant, their roast pork slices with eggplant is also delicious. Price-wise, we ended up taking so much home that it works out to ~$20/portion - but we definitely ordered some of the pricier items on the menu. Well definitely be back, with more people so we can order more from the menu Cant wait!

Here you can taste the taste of Northeastern home-cooked food. Most of the dishes taste good. Particularly like it. Everything they have comes in both small and large portions. Always order small portions. You can order more dishes. Unlike ordinary Chinese food, one portion is a lot for 2 people. If you order one or two more dishes, it will be too much to finish. Order a little less and feel the food is monotonous. At their house, two adults and one child eat for fifty or sixty yuan each time, and they feel super satisfied. Highly recommended.
