the food was alright , but all the menus I found online are old , out dated and prices are way more expansive than what was advertised . An order that used to be 60 + tax costed me a 100$ . not sure I will be ordering from there again .

This place has been open for ages.. i am 40 i remember eating here when i was a kid (8-9 years old). They're chicken fried rice is the bomb, well was the bomb. Need to make a trip back to my old neighbourhood to check this spot again.

It said 8.95 for a Singapore noodle in their menu and when she rang me up she charged me 12.50 and claimed food prices have gone up. Well I suggest you change your menu pricing and honor the pricing on there rather then changing it when I'm ready to pay. It tasted like food you get in a food court like in yorkgate mall but charges like.high quality food. You can get the exact quality noodle on Weston road for 6.50 for the same.noodle. dissapointing. I don't like it when businesses raise the prices when to said something different on the menu. It's principal of the matter. Won't be back. It doesn't help when all the tables have been removed and I had to eat it on my lap. Charged me like I could dine in but ate it on my lap.

Best take-out Chinese food in Etobicoke. This hidden gem on Scarlet Road, right beside Hill Garden gas station. Ordered the beef/broccoli, lemon chicken, chicken fried rice, Singapore noodles and wonton soup. A local favorite.

Overall, the food is great quality and staff have a relatively give it to you straight up service. My wife and I enjoy having our chinese take out from Gardenia House. We're pretty picky people too so not really getting how some don't like this place as much as we do. We've tried another chinese spot nearby with better reviews but were disappointed. Keep up the great service and food. Lucky to have you in our neighborhood.

Cheap prices for very low quality. With excellent quality competition 2 minutes away, I have wondered what keeps them in business, so I decided to try them out. Horrible food, but low prices. I guess they fill the niche market for cheap and terrible Chinese food. Feels and tastes like everything sat under a heat lamp before packaged for delivery. Even then, it arrived barely lukewarm and had to be heated to eat. Truly a letdown and waste of money.

I I ordered at 558 pm and the food was at my door at 620 pm I dont evein know how that is possible but I was happy

December 22, 2023

Extremely tasteless, overpriced. This was the worst Chinese food, I have ever had. The egg rolls were inedible. The chicken fried rice was horrible. The chicken balls were all the worst I have ever had.

Went and picked up an order the other evening and I watched the male cook smoking in the kitchen and handling food at the same time. A total gross out here. Should of said something but I thought whats the point as I will never return. I really liked this place.

Ive just recently moved to the West end from Richmond Hill... and the ONLY place I would eat Chinese food is at a great restaurant in Richmond Hill. My friend Raved about this place so I decided to try it out.... Happy I did!! the food was Super Fresh and Hot and made quickly, the lady that works there (maybe the owner) is super sweet! Their wings, chicken balls and rice are Fantastic! so is their Beef and Broccoli! this will now be my new Go To West end spot!

Ordered twice via door dash. Very good quality. Only thing keeps me back is they DONT have HALAL options. They also don t have option of putting extra meat or veggies in noodles/rice. I could have ordered more without feeling guilty.

December 22, 2017

IF I COULD RATE THIS PLACE ZERO/HORRIBLE I WOULD!!!!! Portions were so tiny spent $50 and it was only enough food for one person, I was so upset! The spicy shrimp cost $10 and I got 11 pieces with the shell on, it wasnt even spicy just badly breaded! The shrimp fried rice didnt even look like fried rice and it was in a container that was only enough food for ONE person!!! The deep fried chicken wings were nasty 10 pieces and they put it on some dry fries! N last but not least the flipping shrimp spring roll was DISGUSTING!
