I have several bad experiences there! Either as customer and also as courier for Skip the dishes app! The people who are at the desk, they are rude and they do not respected me! I told them them nice greetings every time i go there, and the woman and man just staring at my eyes! And not answering my Hello ! They do not know greeting and welcoming customers at all.
I too was almost yelled at just for asking something. $17 for noodles and beef I had to spit out because it was chewy and stringy. You cannot serve meat like that to customers. Never again. It was my first time there and my last. Awful.
Stopped in here with a group of 7 people later in the evening. Food was brought very quickly to our table with very large portions and great service. We had 3 children in our group and everyone all left full with extra to take home.
I'm a regular customer of your restaurant, yesterday I decided to ordered off skip the dishes, I rated the food before I eat it because I'm so use to liking the food there, but last night I was very disappointed with the food I got, it wasn't up yo standard at all, I ordered the Deepfried chicken wings eith rice and the The whole shrimp with mix vegetables with Lo Main noodles and omg it was very bad, especially the noodles wad over cooked and soft and taste smokey, I didn't enjoy my food at all and I spent $50, it was just a waste of my money had to throw it in the garbage and find something else to eat. So I take back the rating I give your restaurant on skip the dishes. My rating would be a one star for preparation of the food, sorry to say.
Tasty, generous portions from an expansive menu; Duck,Beef,Pork etc. Plenty of Vegetarian options too. Price was decent for the size of the meals, and quick, friendly service was provided in a clean and welcomimg environment. Dominoes was being played in one half of the restaurant providing free quirky entertainment of hard slaps on the table, followed by verbal jabs to their opponent! The decor isnt fancy, but its well maintained, and there are plenty of seats for a casual get together with friends.
Fast serve! Satisfied with amount of foods! Tasteful! They have cheap beers
Ordered the pepper shrimp fried rice. The food had a good flavour it was made to order. However it seemed to be on the greasier side. I noticed they started using a new container, and portion is down then what I remembered. Also the new container traps the heat of the food which makes it extremely hot be cautions when you get take out.
Not bad, it's nothing to write home about! The ''chicken" balls, well they mostly consisted of fried flour, it was 89% fried breading and 11% chicken. Then they slathered/covered it in sweet and sour sauce ! When you take it home, it is a soggy mess.
Allover Golden Star is one of my favourite asain cuisine near me its food is delicious specifically there fried chicken.
classic Chinese Guyanese fusion vibe inside, great food, fast service, call in to make an order and its ready in 10 mins piping hot. I love this place.
Beware, they don t own up for their mistakes and then refuse to give you your money back and charge you additional for things. Would not be returning.
They charge extra to pay with debit or credit and dont tell you. The place smells like a fish bowl and the menu prices available online are no longer accurate, its at least $2 more expensive when you get here.
Absolutely terrible service. I m a regular customer of this company and today I was yelled at by one of the older employees for asking a question about a meal. Never experienced service like that before but I would say to stay away from this company at all costs. No problem with food but service is completely terrible.
Love this place since secondary school days. Food great spicy shrimp
Got 3 chicken balls with fried rice, wish they gave more than that but maybe its cuz it was lunch special? Was pretty good tho
Dry nudeles Disgusting last time oreder from them
They turned on the T20 world cup cricket for me and played lovely Sanchez lovers rock in the background. Veggie fried rice was tasty and a generous portion size!
Its was yummy
Too Much waiting time for Uber orders, never ordering from them
I would give this place -5 stars if I could. All the food was bland. Sweet and sour chicken was store bought sauce and rice tasted like water. We also ordered beef with brocolli and only got 6 pieces of beef. Would avoid this place like the plague.
I had a very good eat food was great 10/10
Great tasting food, prompt service and clean restaurant. Very traditional
Great food, great service, food is always ready within 10 minutes, staff gets the job done quickly and are always willing to accommodate, help and explain, great service this is definitely my go to spot and they do 12-3 lunch specials for you save about $4 !
Very disappointed with the service. Food arrived 40 mins after the order and they never served us any water on the table. Food is also not reasonable price
10 outta 10 will recommend
Great food never disappoints!

Quality has way to cheap and Lil overpriced
Fried rice ok spicy shrimp very good spring rolls good

Authentic west Indian food.
On the afternoon of Tuesday, July 13, 2021, I craving for some rice for lunch; but, I want a reasonable and/or inexpensive price. As I was walking, I realized that this restaurant was open for business. As I stepped in and approaching the bar, the male associate greeted me. I chose my order (L71) which was $5.99! I walked back to my workplace, added some ranch dressing and ate my food. YUM! I found a NEW/BETTER spot Recommended spot for all
very tasty it s always super fast and friendly I like the pepper shrimp
Spicy Shrimps with Chicken Fried Rice is awesome! Great Service!
Food and service was great
My Friend ordered food from there and she found a cigarette bud in her food the proof is here.. beware what you buy and from where. if I could give them a 0 i would.
Good food and great customer service
My friend told me to give it 5/5
They sell the best Cantonese chow mein in town. Great services
Best food of its kind in the area. Good pricing. Never waiting too long for pickup orders.
Great place
Prices are different from the menu. I ordered half BBQ duck. It is $16.50 on the menu. I was charged $21.99 on the bill. Not recommend this place. I mentioned it to the staff all they said sorry, price on menu not update yet. I wish I could give 0 star. One more thing! Service charge was applied to my bill for %12 for 5 people. 2 aldults, 2 kids and a baby. Seriously! Terrible service! Do not waste your money here.
Not recived my order from skip even after paying for my order the resturent did not do anything to help reslove the problem
Pretty good food . Not worth the price of youre using uber
Super fast and friendly staff. Great service.
Really good Guyanese Chinese food. I can t complain.
I told them about refried chicken they sell. I didn t want that and still gave it to me. The food was salty ended up vomiting all of it. It s terrible food they serve. Everything was salty and burned Parking: It s lousy
Nice food
Good food
They make good food. Had no problems with them when I order. The restaurant definitely needs a makeover because it looks like a 1960s theme going on.
Great food, tasty and delicious.
Ok place got a beer
Great
Rude service, inconsistent food. Avoid!
Ok food good prices
Disappointed
Always quick and friendly service! They offer an amazing amount of food for an affordable price. Definitely a favourite of mine!
Good food..!
Great food, friendly staff
I like their service because it s always super fast and friendly!! I recommend the pepper shrimp :)
Rice wasn t seasoned nor fried and chicken for general Tao was hard and un flavourful. Definitely will not return.
An update: after ordering from them on several occasions, I notice that the rice is always too soft and I do not like the taste of the red sauce they use on the spicy shrimp or chicken wings.
Great takeout food.
So good!
Taste is ok.. customer service woman on the phone has a bit of attitude speaks too fast almost had the wrong order ..advice make sure your order is right and they understood properly before placing it.
Great tasting chinese food.
Nice and spicy fried rice
Amazing decor
The Golden Star fried rice...was awesome when I had it
Great little hole in the wall Chinese joint. Familiar dishes, and old time classics.
Good tasty delicious meals Cheap prices Good large quantity
Great food
The space is clean, as fast as the eyes can see, but most a bit overpriced and not enough portions.
It was really good and sooooooo sooooooo delicious I would order this place again . This is my favourite place to eat Chinese food and it s also so fresh and very tasty too see u guys very soon my tummy can t wait too
Good portions. Reasonable prices. Most importantly, the flavours were on point. Chicken balls were delicious. Wings were crispy and well seasoned. General tso chicken was a bit sweet but very tasty. Fried rice was delicious, and again, a HUGE portion. We were very satisfied. Will return.
Ordered a chicken and fried rice combo through Uber... The chicken had to have been left over from lunch...NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN.
They have 2am posted for Friday and Saturday but cooks gone from 1am!!! Great running of business, wasting peoples time during the late nights. Fails to answer phone to inform customers of early closures!!
Excellent customer service, good for groups.
FOOD SAFETY ALERT*** Found a full dead lady bug at the end of my bowl after almost finishing my meal and feeding my daughter. Absolutely disgusting. I will be contacting Toronto Public Health.
Very affordable
I buy there spicy fish and all I got was spice and flour no fish in side, they can fool some of the people some of the time, but they cant fool all the people all the time
Good food there.
Food is good and reasonably priced. Clean and friendly people. Good service and quick service. For the number of items - I order take out - approximate wait time is no more than 10 minutes.
Food was terrible. Vegetable was all bitter, and the sweet and sour pork fried rice was drenched in watery sweet and sour sauce.
I felt i was eating hay..I uber eats lo mein with chicken on top..Thats how u be serving ppl cmon that was some lazy cooking forreal who ever is in the kitchen needs to retire.Ppl spend money especially from uber eats it can be so expensive..Put some love in your food
Chicken fried rice was terrible! Im not sure if its even chicken!
Just order from Uber, missing item and bad, not worth it
Ordered Chicken LoMein the noodles were wrong the chicken was raw. Called the restaurant lady that answered the phone started telling me their cooking process. Who cares the chicken was Raw!! People can die from eating raw chicken she had no interest in the raw chicken.
We were not happy that they dont deliver; however, the food was very enjoyable. The General Tao chicken was alittle overcooked and the egg rolls couldve used more flavor (5 spice powder), but everything else was very good. The server was friendly. We plan on trying them again.
Was there today for phone in/take out....worse customer service ever ..food was terrible....when ask the owner(him).he was ignorant..seem like I was nothing him cause I ask for couple paper plates...napkins..Soya sauce..etc...we were eating the food in the park...they should be thankful we ordered from them...never again
Im sure food is good but Im an uber driver and I hate going in because its always full of old drunk men who stop whatever they are doing to stare at who ever comes in. Its very uncomfortable! They are there no matter what time I have picked up!
We ordered chili chicken and this what we got... the chicken tasted like they fried it yesterday and threw in like half the sauce theyre suppose to. It was so disappointing because my husband and I were starving and when we go home this is wjat we opened .
Great Chinese food at an affordable price. Highly recommend the pepper shrimp and chicken wings.
Huge portions. Be careful of the spicy food, its real spicy.
Love it very good food
I ordered the Shrimp in lobster sauce from the seafood , only to receive chicken bits in it. After calling they say that everyone knows this? Everyone like who if it is not written in the description of their menu? 1st and last time ordering from here
Great food and prices. Im always treated well and George makes the very best homemade hot sauce.
The chicken wings are very crispy the food is fast and tasty !!
Got to try the chile chicken and young chow fried rice...
They have a good variety of food in this place
Food is cheap and it tastes very good. The picture is of their holiday decor. Opened on Christmas Day !
Great costumer service and even greater food.
The food has no taste and it wasnt cook properly.
Food is bland and nothing special. Price is always different when you get there to pick it up and you have to order $30 for delivery. Cant even order a dinner for one and pay the delivery and as far as Im concerned why should I have to find a different delivery company when they just pay one of their guys to deliver they dont use a service. And they dont have debit at the door so if you dont have $30 youre SOL.
Good food
Smh
Love the calamari
Its nice the food are ok
Delicious!!!
I drive all the way here JUST for the spicy shrimp. The best in the city.
Very authentic and genuine Guyanese Chinese food.
Fantastic Guyanese style food. Absolutely love this place.
The best Chinese Guyanese food Ive tasted in a long time. No complaints. All hot and freshly made. Great flavor, spiced just right.
Horrible customer and food
If I would need to cook a meal using dog food and week old leftovers it will probably taste better then the garbage we just received.... This was by far the worst food I ever smeld and/or tried to eat... Run away, eat a cend cat food, eat samting from your nabors trash you will enjoy it more and thank me later....
Tasty chicken wings..
Our food was stale, unfresh and there was no meat. I almost threw up after the meal. Please see the attached photo. Those are supposed to be spareribs. See any ribs? I dont
I love their food
Friendly owner & place very clean
Hot n sour soup was the bomb service was goiod.
Very good food at reasonable prices
Ive never tried this place but I was checking it out and look at the third picture in the food pictures theres a barcode on the pepper
Love it and family oriented
I really enjoyed the food, it was great for a great price, i took the pork to go, and i liked it a lot
The best spicy shrimp ever!
Price is right :D
Quality and taste not what it used to be. Their service is excellent however
Food was decent enough, quite loud in there tho. People playing dominoes in the other section.
Bought food on a Sunday it was not fresh Guyanese style more like STALE Guyanese style
Just came back from dine-in lunch. We ordered only Chinese food so I cant say much for the other types of cuisine served there. The food was pretty standard from what you can get at a Chinese restaurant. I would say that the food is comparable to take-out Chinese food, mostly because of the taste and that there was little effort put into presenting the dishes compared to Cantonese cuisine restaurants. The set-up and appearance of the restaurant was clean and up to par. Our waitress (The only waitstaff present) seemed friendly and greeted us when we came in. She was also willing to relay to the chef that we didnt want MSG in our order. Overall, dining at the restaurant for the first time left me with a good enough impression to want to go back and try more of their food.
Ok
Amazing sweet and sour chicken
Good food. The environment not so much
Good food at fair pricing. Thanks
I ordered the lobster. What a huge mistake. It had no meat and had freezer burn. No apology from owner. Sad. No discount, no explanation... just aggravating. What s with everyone playing Domino s so loudly and arguing?!
Food is bland. Cash only bar. The food server was sweet. We ordered chow mein and a combo of veggies and fried rice with chicken. Very average tasting and blend. Overall not a delicious meal.
Pretty good
Fun and friendly staff. Good food too
Very polite, I was greeted with a smile, straight to the point. The food was ready and presented quick. The lady who took my order was very helpful, and was willing to alter the menu just for my liking. The food was delicious, I already cant wait to go back again.
Amazing service. Very pleased !! The lady who took my order was very nice and straight to the point. She described the food very well, answered all my questions.
Yummy food...you need to try it...trust me
Asian food blend in with Caribbean spices
Ive been going here for years. The customer service is okay. They serve a large amount of food (mostly rice if you get a combo meal).
i ordered one of their combos, the food was so disgusting that i almost threw up, i had to call the place back and complained.
