816 Tower St S, Fergus, ON N1M 3V3, Canada
I have been going here for years. It’s my “go-to” Chinese food restaurant and no one else compares to their level of service and they incredibly amazing food! Their food is always fresh, tastes out of this world. They always accommodate my request for extra chicken in my chicken chop suey and their won ton soup is the best of the best! I adore the workers there, always super friendly and happy to chat. Honestly I cannot recommend this place more! Absolutely love China 8 and I will forever be a customer! I have never been disappointed with any of their dishes and they are the sweetest to order from. Super fast, super clean, superior service.
Got Chinese food to celebrate my parent's wedding anniversary. They would have been married 67 years on Aug 31. Dad passed in 2017. Best Chinese food I have had in years!! Mom and I couldn't stop complimenting it!!!
The food was nasty. Chicken fried rice was curry yellow. The chicken balls were not cooked properly. The sweet and sour sauce tasted like perfume The food overall tasted gross. I would not recommend this place at all.
I’m sorry the food was not good. What is with this yellow tint to everything ? The wings and chicken balls had a raw taste . No seasoning no flavour. The fried rice was yellow and tasted like old oil. The spring rolls tasted like plastic. The vegetables were drenched in sauce. Not happy. I’m not sure what’s with all the positive reviews. But I’m attributing this to the area. If this restaurant was in Toronto the reviews would not be so high.
Ordered Cantonese chow mein, beef with veggies and almonds, chicken fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, today for take out. Food was very tasty and portions were very good. So good !!!!
Really like the crab cheese wontons and Shrimp Mein Feng. All the food we tried was good although the szechuan beef could have had a little more spice and it seems like some of the food has changed since our first order. For example the egg rolls were bigger and better. This order i tried the Spring Rolls for the first time. What a disappointment. 2 of these little baby fingers with just a little shrimp inside for $3 lol (shrimp tubes) and everything is more expensive. Thought I would try this place again since they are on the way home. They aren't honoring the free app due to the GST. Ordered a large wonton soup and it isn't like usual size. Only got 1 small sweet and sour sauce when its normally 2. NOT COOL THE CUSTOMER GETS RIPPED OFF DURING THE GST BREAK TYVM
Great place we discovered while on a road trip. The portions are big the food is delicious. We particularly love the General Taos chicken and the sweet and sour chicken. We’ve been there on two consecutive trips and looking forward to going back.
Definitely a must have if you are in the Fergus area, The food is very fresh and delicious. My favourite is the sesame chicken with the house Lo Mein. This place has to be one of the best chinese restaurants I have ever tried the dumplings are the best it's a must have! I highly reccomend China 8.
Food is amazing and always consistent. Highly recommended.
Terrible, I will never go again
Stopped on a Saturday evening for a quick take out order, nothing complicated. I was told the wait would be 15 minutes or so. I asked after 35 minutes and was told the food is coming. I recieved my order after 45 minutes, a rediculous amount of time for rice and noodles. As Im waiting, I got a good look at the cleanliness and maintenance of the front of house at China 8. This place is filthy! In my experience, if the customer facing section of a restaurant is not clean and well maintained then the back of house is worse! Maybe, the owners should have their staff do some cleaning instead of sitting by the cash register playing on her phone. The food was good and fresh but I dont like taking chances with food borne illnesses so I will not be returning!
Ive lived in two different china towns in Toronto and China 8s food can stand with any of the restaurants there. Portions are huge. Quality is outstanding and the prices are surprisingly reasonable.
We treat ourselves often to this great food. It never disappoints in quality . We buy enough for two or three days and it s no problem to reheat. So much choice. A friendly take out place just 5 minutes from home and food usually less than 30 minutes to ready. Due to family with Covid we have had to postpone our Lunar New Year feast but as soon as everyone is well we ll be ordering again. Kung hei fat choi
I tried the veg pad thai. When I first opened the container it looked like a bowl of shredded carrots. I tried to mix it a bit but it was a glob of glue. Turned out to actually be noodles but they were orange coloured, not from sauce - because there was none, it was so dry. Also there were NO vegatables. This was THE worst pad thai I have ever had...and unfortunately paid $12 for. This has put me off and sadly I wont be returning.
Always hot and made to order, even when the allergies are extremely specific. You know the service is personalized ( or you order too much ) when the owner can pick up the phone and know you by name. That type of small-town service doesnt happen much anymore. Weve never had a bad experience. Parking: Located in a strip mall, beside a major grocery chain. Wheelchair accessibility: Can be accessed relatively easily by a wheelchair.
Love this place. Such friendly staff and so delicious like usual
If I could give 6 stars I would. Excellent food, great prices, the packaging is filled to the brim. Friendly staff, cant say enough!
Great food!
Great food, best Chinese food I ve had in a long time, wonderful customer service. Will recommend and will return!!
Such great customer service everytime, and delicious food!
I love their sweet sour chicken ball, The sweet and sour chicken here is the best I have ever.
LOVE THIS PLACE! I highly recommend your next meal of Chinese Food from here. Recommended dishes
Best Chinese food in Fergus. Hot and Sour soup and Dragon & Phoenix are our faves. Just wish they delivered.
They are very polite on the phone and when you come in to pick up your order. The food is so delicious. My whole family loves this for a treat every now and then
Good service, but terrible food. Would not recommend. Also overpriced.
Soggy. Pretty terrible
I have bought take out from other China 8 restaurants in Hanover and Port Elgin. The other locations give you 2 side dishes along with the rice. Here you get rice and your side and thats it (plus an egg roll). The rice was supposed to be chicken fried, looked more like a curry and the pepper stake was bland. Worst China 8 restaurant! And more expensive too!
Great place for Chinese food. Have never been disappointed. Recommend it highly.
Most delicious food! Good price. Friendly staff.. Very helpful Definitely recommend
Tons of food for the price best Chinese food in the area, often cooked to order and fresh fast service
Delicious food
Best Chinese food in town. Love it
Cant tell you how great it was to see the owner. The dishes were absolutely the best ive had there in a very long time. The goyza sauce was incredible
General Tso Chicken is to die for
Great Chinese food. Very standard Chinese-Canadian style stuff. They raised their prices for the dinners almost 20% across the board. Not cool but I guess prices are up everywhere. Otherwise fast friendly and tasty.
Friendliest staff. Huge portion of chicken. Great prices. Have to get more soon
Love this place so much! Delicious food and and even better staff. Customer service is impeccable, I always feel so welcomed it reminds me of Cheers .
We really enjoy the food at this provider. Not so much coating. The food is prepared fresh when we come in, the cost is reasonable, and you get a lot more of a serving. Very friendly staff and the store is very clean.
Best chinese food
Great lunch, quick and easy pick up
Ive ordered in this place They argued with me they didnt wanna give me the refund the lady the owner she was really rude she came out the door to argue with me in the street the worst place Ive ever been the worst Chinese place Ive ever been So unprofessional The Chinese restaurant downtown Fergus theyre so friendlyComparing to this one
This place is totally a gem! Reasonable price and the food is always fresh! Very helpful and friendly staffs,also lots easy parking! It s our to go Chinese restaurant!
Service was fast and staff are great. Highly recommend.
General Taos Chicken is the best!
Best option for Chinese food in Fergus and Elora and cant beat the % for paying cash!
Good Chinese in fergus
Food was pretty good,no complaints. Walk up order,place was busy,told me 15 minutes,ready in 10. 1st time customer,new to the area,would order again!
Doesnt matter how good the food is. If you are still using covid as an excuse to block off your washroom to guests with yellow caution tape I will not open my wallet. The circus is long over and this business is still supporting it.
Killer chinese food! Best I have had and have tried a few. Food
Such good, fresh food EVERYTIME i order. Very friendly customer service . Definitely 1 of my families favorite restaurants.
Thank you for the delicious 80th birthday dinner sent to me yesterday by my children The food from China 8 is always so fresh and tasty and the staff are super friendly. You helped make my day very special.
This place has great food! Its always ready when they say it will be. Very impressed!
Our go to! Amazing food, amazing prices and top notch customer service!
Just shared my first experience with China 8, Fergus today on Q107 radio, they announced my review on air for you:) My first order with China 8, Fergus, I was 10 minutes late picking up my order, you refused to give it to me and made me a fresh order on the spot. Was the best ever meal in a long time. 3 years later still same quality, best value as first time. Keep up the great service. Cheers!
I just found this place and have had it twice now and its both delicious and prepared on time. Personal favourite is the General Tso chicken combo and the steamed dumplings. MUWAH! . Can be split easily for two adults on one meal or 2 for me! Price cant be beat.
Great tasting food. I always enjoy my meals from China 8. You will not be disappointed.
Good meal.
The food was really good and the dishes a good size. I think there was good value for the money. This is the first time we ordered from this restaurant as we were visiting a friend in Elora. We would order from them again.
We ordered at around 5.20 they said it would be a hour now it s 7.30 and still no food I phoned and canceled it was long they called back to said he standing at the door we looked no one was there he probably had the same house and the people that called were very rude never eat there again
I think the food is super good however the girl answering the phone is always rude and short.
my first meal at china 8 was a few days ago and its now my favourite chinese food restaurant in the area. the young girl on the phone was super respectable and helpful, she gave me great recommendations and was really friendly despite how busy the store was. will be returning:)
Good food, friendly staff, reasonable prices.. Worth the drive.
Wonderful food x wonderful staff x highly recommend xx
Good customer service, not so much the food sorry. Ordered quite a few things, and probably should have tried something small first, but trusted all the positive reviews.
Lots of easy parking. Clean establishment. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. If you want vegetarian food, they are happy to provide it. The food was tasty for the most part. The spring rolls are really good, mixed vegetables good and the pad thai was okay...Id like to give that dish another try. Sorry I cant help with meat dishes. Overall i would recommend them. They are fast too.
They have amazing and big portion sizes! They always give me extra soy sauce packets and fortune cookies as well! The food tastes great and the staff are very kind everytime I come in! They are one of my favorite Chinese food places to go to.
Very good food. The chicken Fried rice is a favorite at our house.
Tried for the first time last night and was pleasantly surprised! Food was fresh and full of flavour. Looking forward to leftovers today and the next time I get to order.
Best Chinese food in Fergus. Location is convenient with easy parking.
Awesome food.
Sooo good friendly staff and service and great portion sizes
Great food
Excellent food Accommodated food restrictions. My order was ready when promised
Great deals on used vehicles
Best Chinese food in Fergus! Great customer service. Weve tried every other place and nothing beats China 8!
Great food, service, and price!
Food was great as always . I especially like the rice here. Its different and just so good.
Foods good sure but right now they have no measures in order to keep social distance standards and they are very disorganized when it comes to whos order is whos. Ive been waiting 30mins for my order that I placed over 90mins ago. Plus the customers waiting also dont understand social distancing and well you cant fix stu.....
Food tastes good although the portions are small. But, twice eaten here and twice my insides badly rejected everything the next day.
Literally the best chinese food we have ever had. Ive never heard my girl make noises like that. (No, seriously though, the BEST chinese food ever!) Wish we had it in windsor.
This is my favourite Chinese place. The food is always good, the portions are big and the staff are always nice to deal with.
Best Chinese I had in a long time
Awesome food!!
I couldnt tell what the chicken was in my lo mein. The flavor is off and I couldnt finish it. Tried it twice in case it was a one off. Wont be going again.
This is the best Chinese restaurant there is!
Very great place fast an really tasty...almost like China Express in guelph
Great customer service! Fantastic food! Even better portion sizes!
Fast service. Great value. Delicious food!

Good food. You get a lot for the money.
Alway good
Amazing and friendly customer service! The food is excellent too and served up fast with minimal wait, even during busiest times.
The food is amazing, the people who work there are amazing, especially Suri. The food is always ready in 15 mins. Even if you dont like Chinese food, they make the best chicken wings at a great price. Tried delivery tonight, was told 25 mins, the food arrived on time and very hot. I really cant say enough good things about this place.
Great prices, quality and quantity is delivered to you at this place and its that simple. The young lady at the counter is very professional and accommodating to any questions or requests.
Really good food and you diffently get your monies worth
Good food and service.

Best Chinese food in town!

I love the food here. I always go out of my way to get it!
A great meal for the whole family, What a Merry Christmas!!!
Very good food
Good food at reasonable price and good customer service!
Our takeout order was ready quickly and service at the cash was extremely friendly. I liked the 10% discount for paying in cash. We had the lemon chicken, sweet and sour chicken, egg rolls, beef with broccoli, house special fried rice, Singapore mein feng, shrimp chop suey and Szechuan style pork. Every item we ordered was delicious. Half way through our meal I turned to my husband and remarked that it might be the best chinese takeout Id ever had. Thats how tasty and fresh it was. I would highly recommend this restaurant and there is no question we will become repeat customers.
This place is excellent, fast, friendly and delicious!!!!! I could live off their hot and sour soup!!!
Friendly fast service. Excellent tasting food
A lot of the menu items are delicious and the service here is great.
Was closed two hours early. We drove an hour to go get food but it was closed, really sucks because the food was amazing last time
Orders dinner from here for the first time the other day. It was really good as far as Chinese goes. We will definitely order from here next time we want Chinese
Ate here once so far and it was great. Will go back for sure
Yummy yummy yummy. My new favourite Chinese restaurant. Sesame chicken is my fave. Love the sweet and sour chicken too. Highly recommend this place. Great service too!!!
Food is awesome, grab my Chinese from here everytime and have not been disappointed ever. Wait time is usually a little off though so if they say 15 minutes show up at 20 minutes
Yummy wontons
Best in town
Best Chinese food weve had in years! We read the reviews and had our fingers crossed that this would be a good take-out. Well we were not disappointed!!! Truly, weve been looking for good Chinese take-out for at least five years. Couldnt find any in Guelph or Barrie and definitely not Fergus, but now we have. Yay! Btw, we had all veggie dishes, rice, noodles and tofu and spring rolls. All yummy! All fresh. Big portions and excellent prices. Cant wait until lunch to have leftovers from last nights dinner.
Really good food and not to bad on the wallet
Wow this was really good chinese food with lots of variety. Prices are on par with other Chinese restaurants around. They need to add their menu to their website. The menu is in Google maps buts its hard to navigate. Lemon chicken: really good, but a little soggy if left in the container for a while Cheese wontons: these are tasty with cream cheese and crab meat inside. I would get this again. I have had better but only slightly. Would get this again. Hot and sour soup: Wow tastes good and spicy. If you are a mushroom lover, this is a must have. Never had hot and sour soup with mushrooms, so a pleasant surprise. Fried dumplings: just ok, nothing special. Sweet and sour pork. Comes with sauce on it and is really good. Chicken wings: actually better than I expected, so would get them again. Spring rolls: not great, wont get again Egg rolls:. Good, will get again. Chicken fried rice: good amount of chicken and veggies in the rice and rice was very soft. Will get again.
Exceptional service and quality.
delicious!
Amazing food at a quality price.
Best place in town. People amazing. Food excellent
Great portions for the price. Not greasy, and vegetables are always fresh. Lo mein was a little dry for my taste. Would ask for more sauce next time. It was delicious and I wanted more
Food was great. Fast service
Delicious food and very friendly staff.
I absolutely LOVE Chinese food, its very rare that I find a Chinese food restaurant that I dont like....but this is by far the worst Chinese food I have ever had. The 1 star is for the sheer convenience of it being down the road from me, however, after trying it for the first time it could right next door and I wouldnt orders from them. My family and I order at least 100 of food every time we get take out, we called...placed the order and they told us 10 minutes or less. To me, 10 minutes is a little quick...I cant even get mac and cheese ready and to the table in 10 minutes...lol. I could go into detail about each dish, but Im not going to...I will just say this. Mushroom fried rice should NOT be bright yellow
Good Food
Good food in less than 5 min.
Ate here for the first time last night, very tasty, quick food. Flavourful and not greasy, also big potions and good price! Highly recommend :-) I hope they keep up the high standards, about time the fergus area got a decent Chinese place!
We ordered take out last night from China 8 in Fergus because we heard good things online. The portion sizes are great and they seem like really great people that work there, customer service was great. However the spring rolls were terrible, they were more like Thai spring rolls but that aside the flavour and smell was terrible. My husband and I both couldnt finish them. The broccoli beef mix looked good but smelled and tasted bad as well. Im not sure if its a different spice they use. The chicken balls were mediocre and the sauce had very little flavour. The fried rice was probably the best part. Disappointing for sure we were really hoping it would be great.
Beef broccoli whoooo
its good food for what it is. fast service, great customer service and big portions will guarantee a nice full belly. they have a lot of the typical white bastardized chinese food though, but for a small town like fergus its the closest thing to chinese youre gonna get.
Good food, reasonable prices, amazing dumpling sauce, perfectly cooked broccoli, havent tried anything I dont like.
good food
