Unfortunately the dishes were always empty and when they refilled, they only put a bare minimum. The restaurant was full and we had to wait for food constantly. Not normal for a buffet.

yummy n nice service

July 20, 2023

It’s a WASTE OF MONEY, the chicken is horrible, looks like it's not made in the day. It looks and taste like the soups in cans you buy in stores. First and last time we go there, if I'm completely honest, It's like those premade rice you can purchase at maxi. There is no eggs in the rice. There's no celeri, no flavour at all. If you want real food, it's best that you do it or order from another one.

This is my local Chinese take out restaurant. The Customer service is excellent and the food is on time and delicious (we always have leftovers). The chicken balls and spare ribs are fantastic.

We’ve been going to a very large, very expensive chain buffet restaurant for years. My uncle invited us to try L’Oncle Ho and I didn’t expect much when I walked in, but OMG the food was amazing. That place has been around for 50 years. My grandparents used to go there. It’s a small, but delicious buffet. And the service was amazing. The employees were friendly, kind, super nice to my children. We live in Barrhaven but plan to go back to Gatineau next time we want Chinese buffet!

I did not expect much walking in. We were greeted with smile. Small buffet without a lot of choice... But what was there was fantastic! Veg were NOT overcooked, everything was very well prepared and delicious! The lone waitress was busy, but not too busy to be polite and friendly!

I have been eating here pretty much since they opened, when I was just a kid. Is it fancy? No. Is it expensive? No. Is it haute cuisine? No. But it is satisfying, affordable, not an enormous buffet of hundreds of things you'll never touch. Their food has been consistent for decades and I still go there regularly for comfort food.

Update : December 31st 2020 Went from best Chinese food place in Gatineau a few years ago to now one of the worst. Tonight was the last straw. Undercooked (almost raw) chicken balls and cold egg rolls. Probably the best take out Chinese food in Gatineau but the delivery times are ALWAYS over an hour. You would think being that busy they would hire help for peak hours. Update: 1.5 hour to get my order. This is why I sometimes hesitate to order from there.

★★★★★
December 22, 2021

My favorite Chinese restaurant for a long time.Ok

December 22, 2021

Customer service that really lacks courtesy. Meal too expensive for the portions. $80 later for teaching me not to order there anymore, especially when I want to pay my family a good deal. On the other hand, its a shame because if there was good customer service, I would think about it again, but because of that its a categorical no for us here. That would be something to change. Having someone nice would make a change.

Chicken sweet and sour without any chicken and the dough is not cooked... and dont call them to tell them they made an error, they wont listen to you. Never will I go there again...

Rotten Restaurant!!!!! Takes forever to deliver and lies saying that the order is out and an hour and a half later nothing seen and no know how to live on the phone and puts on hold to save yourself from problems instead of responding to customers trash service and food equivalent, never again....

December 22, 2019

The take-out order was received 50 minutes after the time given on the phone, there was a clear lack of communication between employees despite an almost completely empty dining room. I am very disappointed with my experience.

December 22, 2019

shrimp with lobster sauce: totally rotten meat and inedible shrimp the smell is horrible and the taste is as if the meat had been rotten before being cooked I ate a big mouthful of it. I hope Im not sick.

Honestly I cant complain about the food, it is actually good a little expensive but it is understandable considering you are getting good food and a fair amount of food, my 1 star is that Older lady at the reception that sighs at you for not being sure of what you want and deliberately putting you on hold and my favorite to give you attitude for not deciding fast enough, this is not at all customer service. If you hate your job quit, if your tired don t come to work but you should never take it out on your customer. ps: i went across the street and got my food, attitude free while writing this review ======================================== I honestly cant complain about the food, its actually a little pricey, but thats understandable considering you get good food and a good amount of it; my 1 star is due to the elderly lady at the front desk who sighs because youre not sure what you want and deliberately puts you on hold and my favorite for giving you the attitude for not deciding fast enough, this is not customer service at all.

The lady at the front was very nice and welcoming, so i feel bad that I have to give this place 1star, but the truth is ,the food tasted very very bad , almost everitingh tasted like left over from days prior. I was so dissapointed at the presentation, taste ,and lack of choices. For the first time in my life i went out for dinner, and left the restaurant in about 40 min. I wouldve left even earlier but didnt want to be rude toward the owner ( i think) , since that she was so pleasent :(

New decor, very good menu,

December 22, 2019

Stale food, dried left overs in the food bins, chicken balls were way too battered, there was no won tons in the soup so it was only filled with broth. There was no dessert other than fortune cookies and tasteless almond cookies. The decor was dated and the handicap washroom there was a Industrial mop bucket in front of the toilet and the vacuum sitting in front of the sink blocking access. They decided to remove the hot water tap so that we could not turn on the hot water to wash our hands, the toilet paper dispenser was broken and there was no dispenser for paper towel so both the toilet paper and the paper towel were sitting on top of the toilet lid. We last attended this restaurant 22 years ago we thought we would give it another try apparently its still a disappointing restaurant to attend. On a positive note theres a lot of parking if you steal it from the restaurant next door which the food next door is actually better and cheaper at the Canton.
