BBQ lamb Fried rice Spicy chicken dry
One of the best bbq place on Thursday a jug of beer is $9 and buy 1 get 1 free! Amazing
This restaurants blew our minds off with their BBQ selections. There was a bit of a wait for a table because our party was a bit on the bigger side. We waited for about 20 mins, but it was well worth it. The BBQ came out fresh, and all the dishes were satisfactory. The service was good even though the servers were younger than usual. The price was acceptable, and servings were ample. Overall we are very satisfied with this restaurant.
All the food is a bit salty and oily. The lamb skewers and beef skewers are quite delicious. Big parking lot but always full Service was ok
Came here to try for the first time and won’t be coming back. Although the food was good we ended up waiting 45 minutes for a stir-fry veggie dish. They brought our skewers scallops and jellyfish out but we were missing our one dish still. We had to ask the severs several times to follow up on our order. After we got fed up and asked for the bill the waiter tells us it’ll be two more minutes…this was after 45minutes from when our initial orders came out. We had already finished everything so just asked to cancel.
Seems like a sister restaurant to One Plus One BBQ. Some of the menu items still has its name mentioned unintentionally. Would have been better if they introduced new items, but it’s the same menu items. Some items are removed too. Compared to the original location, this place is bigger and cleaner at least.
It was my husband’s birthday when we dined in here. He chose this restaurant because of the BBQ on it’s name. He loves BBQ so much and we really do. We passed by so many restaurants and ended up here. The “BBQ” word on its name, he assumed the restaurant specialty would be BBQ. And of course we are customers who want to try different places and keeping it as our to go to whenever we don’t want to cook. The place was not busy, only 2 tables with customers. I appreciate that each table have it’s own hand sanitizer. We tried quail eggs BBQ and squid tentacles BBQ, crispy bun, stir fried pork intestines, scallops with garlic and vermicelli, yang chow fried rice, kung pao chicken and sweet and sour pork. The 2 BBQ came first and I’m glad we tasted it first before ordering more BBQs. We were dissatisfied with the taste. We did not expect the fennel seeds which we’re not a fan of it despite it’s healthy benefits. They used same sauce for the BBQ so both had fennels. It was not mentioned on the menu if it’s spicy so, we expected it was not. But both were spicy and my kid can’t tolerate spicy much. It’s more like an Indian cuisine for the sauce used. Thanks that crispy bun came with condensed milk dip. It was really good! I love the stir fried pork intestine. It was delicious! The scallops as well! It was so garlicky and I liked it. It’s just salty. Which was perfect to mix for the bland yang chow rice. Kung pao chicken was good too! I loved it, lots of peanuts! Lastly, the sweet and sour pork made an impression! We were surprise how it was cooked, no tomato sauce at all. So, the color was different it’s all white no bell pepper too. Maybe this is the version of this place. Tasted more likely of lemon chicken. For the washroom, the door can’t be locked. So you need someone to watch for you. I hope they will fix the knob and change brighter bulb for light. Hand towel dispenser was not working too. Very important place of the restaurant is the washroom. I hope this won’t be taken for granted. If the room is dark you can’t see the dirt though.
Been here for a late night dinner. Restaurant was not busy and service is a bit slow. Ordered some traditional dishes and they are all tasty but the sweet potato dessert. Open till 2am so a good choice for late food. Price is lower than average. Portion is ok.
Overall, good experience! It was my first time coming here. The place was clean and had a decent amount of seats. When we came, it was a bit busy but we got our food in a good amount of time. I really liked the long bean dish that we ordered! They had a lot to offer on their menu and their servers were nice!
The food here tastes good, not overwhelming but definitely gives you another visit. But, please patience with their services because of lacking in servers.
There food is not really salty, with two times of visit, I think it s seasoned quite well and stable in flavour. There is only 1 server so it s take times for all the food to be served in a short period of time for 6-8 tables. We understand that so it s okay to wait for the food. Great food, fair service and good price. Will come again and will recommend for my friends.
I am a grilled fish fanatic, but the first time I ate this grilled fish, it was so fishy that I vomited it out. I have never had such terrible grilled fish in Toronto. Other dishes are pretty good, but their signature dish, Intractable Disease, is quite delicious.
I have seen some 3 or 2 star ratings, mainly for non-Chinese customers who expected BBQ , which this restaurant is not about. This is a chinese cuisine of North eastern style. The taste is quite authentic. Price is fair.
Unpalatable. Tomato pimple soup is vegetable egg drop soup.
The best BBQ I ve had in a while! ! ! Difficult and complicated diseases are indeed my signature, I really can t stop! The only drawback is that the mutton is a bit chewy
The food is okay, but a little unclean
I d like to preface this by saying that the girl who was working as a server was really sweet and did her best. I rated this 2 stars because the food took 20 minutes for the simplest menu items (skewers and cold noodles) that you can literally make in under 5 minutes if everything is prepared. The menu prices were expensive for what the food was, and the people around me at nearby tables were even complaining that the portions and flavour that was here previously is lacking now. As for the food, the skewers weren t even hot?? and it was too salty. the spice wasn t even spicy at all. the cold noodles were also too salty for our tastes. Unfortunately, don t recommend.
Tasty, no service, unhygienic. My stomach hurts when I eat there. I won t go back again. Garbage.
The decoration of this store is not too luxurious. It is a small store, so the service has to wait, but it is acceptable. The taste is southern Chinese taste, not too strong, and the quality is not bad. The food is fresh, especially the tomato grilled fish nest. , the soup base is thick, the fish is fresh, side dishes are added, the price is moderate, and there are specials every day
Lightning protection! Will not come again! Is it reasonable to wait an hour for the first beef skewers? ! Is it reasonable that the second mutton kebab didnt come after waiting for an hour and then a full 30 minutes? ! I was so angry that I canceled my order and left after only eating one skewer. Besides the environment, the floor was so sticky that I couldn t lift my feet, and the table was so sticky that I didn t even want to put my hands on it!
After eating two dishes for 3 hours, I felt more and more hungry. I suggest friends who want to lose weight to try it, or friends who want to try French skewers! ! ! I hope the store can continue to maintain it! ! !
I ordered takeout. It was stated that four sets of cutlery were required. Only gave me one pair? How shall we eat? Eat with your hands?
Food ia very slow. Just came for a few skewers and theres barely anyone here. Still waited a very long time for some lukewarm chicken and lamb.
Great service friendly people and delicious healthy food. Vegetarian options: Lots of delicious vegetarian options. Food : 5/5 |
Go to the one on the other side with better rating
Wow!!! Everything Was Fresh n Spicy!!! My New Favorite Restaurant! Food : 5/5 |
The waiter had no service and had a bad attitude. A tall waiter with dyed hair who works on Sunday.
Really like this place, the skewers are seasoned pretty well, not just smothered in a spice mix like some other Chinese skewer places. I like to get the house signature cold dish.
The two of us only ordered 6 skewers of mutton skewers and 1 skewer of leeks. After eating, my teammate vomited three times that night. I had a fever the next day and started to have diarrhea after that. I want to ask what the hell are your ingredients? ! In addition, leeks are extremely salty!
Love the flavor
Good
real eastern north Chinese food
Their lamp, beef and chicken skewers are really good.
I heard from my hometown in Jilin that they have authentic Northeastern barbecue and Northeastern cuisine. I tried it once. What can I say? I ordered one piece of heart tube, one mutton skewer, one tendon, one fried instant noodles, and one pot roasted meat heart tube. The lamb skewers are extremely dry and extremely hard. The texture is like chewing a wooden stick. The ribs are grilled the most and are burnt, but they are still cold when you eat them. I don t know what the cook thought of the fried instant noodles being so sour, just like those selling vinegar. In the end, the fried instant noodles were sour but hard and unpalatable. The noodles and the meat were separate. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I really didn t want to write a review, but I really can t stand it when I see so many people blowing it here.
The grilled fish didnt feel grilled, but fried, and the seasoning on the skewers was too sweet.
Excellent food and customer service. Nice environment for family and friends party.
I felt like they don t wash their dishes, so dirty and so greasy. The washroom is sooo smelly.
Went here for skewers gathering. They have good skewers with very reasonable price. Good is good and quantity is great. We all very satisfied ams full when leaving. Highly recommend. No photos since i focus on eating
Tried this for the first time today and it was so good!!! Lamb skewers were perfectly seasoned although the char on it was lacking but still very good. Also got their grilled fish, it was delicious, fish was perfectly seasoned and so flavorful (tip: get vermicilli in it, soaks up all the sauce). So happy I found this late night spot.
Vegetarian options: Ask boss, she can make it possible as you may want. Parking: Huge parking space. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Came around 530pm and lots of table were still available, we ordered the dumpling, garlic cucumber, garlic eggplant, lamb skewers, beef skewers. Overall food was better than expected, good size portions, only downside is that it felt a bit dirty- under the tables, the boiled dumplings had black char bits all over.
I always come here when I visit the plaza. If you want something quick and delicious get their lamb & heart skewers. They have a lot of options for bbq and dishes that I have yet to try. Tastes great!
Very authentic Chinese bbq. The scallops are super big and delicious! Will come again! ! Grilled fish is cheap and delicious. Grilled fish is half price on Thursdays.
If you can handle a disgusting amount of salt and MSG, then this is the place to go. The food gave me food poisoning, i didnt know they love salt and MSG that much. Half way through our dine in, i walked out the food was terribly salty.
Service is poor and slow
I would recommend the hotpot, we had the fish in tomato soup. Portion size was more than enough for our group of 8 and has lots of veggies.
The service is so-so. I feel like the waiters are busy. The food is pretty good.
The food is not fresh, and service was too slow. Need to improve a lot of ways.
The intractable disease is delicious, but everything else is average
The food was sooo good, I and my friend were mad at ourselves for having the audacity to almost choose the next restaurant. We regret NOTHING!!!
Food is always delicious. The staff is exemplary. I accidentally ordered BBQ quail instead of BBQ quail eggs. I asked if it could be changed and they did without hesitation. This place is great for a late night meal.
Dishes and food are not fresh
Decent experience. Food is good, but takes longer than normal to prepare. Prices very high for what you get. Staff are nice.
I buy from here occasionally...Yesterday I purchased 2 orders of my fave soup...they were absolutely watered down n aviously had no flavors and lacks the necessary ingredients for this soup. Ive tried contacting the restaurant to complain and no one has bothered to reach out to me. I spent my hard earned money for absolutely the poorest quality soup. I deserve a refund !! Terrible customer service
The server was so rude just like we own him money
Like my friends said, it is our home. Things are not perfect, and each time, the draft beer tastes different. But I will give it a 5 star if taking price into consideration.
It takes a really long time for the bbq. Honesty I quite curious about what are the people do in kitchen. It totally not. A Chinese bbq, it s too slow. We wait for a hour only for 4 lamb bbq. And other are all cold. Very very very bad experience. Will never come and will tell my friend not come. Too slow. Food is also not tasty. We all full because they only give us rice and soup. Bad experience!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Standard Chinese bbq spot! Food came fairly quickly and was great value for the portions!
Best lamb skewers
1+1=5885 skewers for life
God brought me here
Came from Milton for the lamb skewers
you already know it s gonna be lit
Yo the portions are big and nice. Tofu A40 is the bomb. Lamb skewers on point. I love me oysters. 4$ beer. Cheaper than bars. Northeastern price for alcohol.
Came here on Friday and back on Sunday because it s that good
The food is a bit salty and not stir-fried thoroughly. When ordering grilled live fish, remember to read the price clearly. The gas fee is extra and it is not marked on the menu. This is the first time I have encountered this. I hope the boss will change it.
We enjoyed our lunch here. Food are tasty, maybe a little bit salty to my preference. I love the yeung chow fried rice. Price is good. Service is ok. I. Just concern of the washroom too hard to lock it up. Lots of parking. So many restaurants in the plaza. Lots of Asian sweets and goodies too.
We came here as a group in a late night dinner. Surprisingly this place existed! It was an awesome experience! Food is devine!
Top 5 chinese bbq in Toronto, but long wait, unprofessional staff
good food, good service
Not thoroughly cooked BBQ, I do not recommend here.
Serving speed is super slow
Personally not a fan of skewers, but I go for their other dishes. Today we just got the deep fried mantou and garlic cucumber salad, both of which are two of my fave things ever. I can eat them all myself. I like that the restaurant is roomy and very clean, and the atmosphere is nice. Service is also friendly and quick.
Meat was served raw. Twice. I know they don t fry their meat but if that s the case then it should be on the grill longer. No flavor other than spicy . By far the least appetizing BBQ restaurant I ve been to in Scarborough. The chef was also in the dining area using his bare hands to put on the kebabs, very unsanitary.
Very great food
Although the menu is northeastern, but some dishes are not really northeastern flavour, it tastes like they hired a sichuan chef to cook northeastern cuisine, especially the , I was really disappointed by this, but the rest is good.
We thought that this place closed down! But was really happy that they just changed their name and renovated! The food here is so delicious! So glad we came back to check. Definitely worth the visit!
Skewers are really good
When the restaurant first opened, the barbecue chef was really awesome. For some reason, he must not be the same chef anymore, and the meat seems to have been changed. It tastes weird. I really hope that the original master can come back
Has the boss tasted it himself... The chicken skin is as dry and hard as a leather belt, and the beef skewers are all very stringy and require dental floss...
Wooden barrel barbecue is a bit slow, but it gets hotter by the minute.
Best Chinese BBQ Ive had so far. Highly recommend the skewers. All food is a bit spicy.
Phenomenal meal. We had the lamb skewers, cabbage, husband wife, Fish in chili oil, dumplings. The food tastes amazing, Im new to Northern Chinese cuisine, but absolutely loved this meal. Highly highly recommended
Amazing prices! Amazing service!
Great spot for spicy Chinese BBQ skewers. The lamb and beef are the highlights for sure. My go-tos are also fried yellow croaker and spicy buns. The skewers are on the saltier side, so it may not be to everyones taste. Prices and portion sizing are good compared to other places Ive been to. Definitely would come here (and have already) again!
Very tasty northern Chinese food and great prices! Will come again!
THE BEST Chinese restaurant in North America hands down. It s so hard finding good northern Chinese / dong bei style cuisine anywhere. This is better than my favorite places in Chicago and NYC . Amazing food, great prices, lovely service. Will be coming here every time we re in TO
Got bait and switched then double charged. Was served a similar dish that we ordered and we ate. They then proceeded to bringing the actual dish we ordered at the very end once weve been done for a while and charging us for it, likely realizing they messed up the order. We took the extra dish charged out of the tips. They also dont serve proper potato sliced skewers and only have french fries, which is very misleading on their menu.
Loved the grilled food. Can be very spicy.
Taste of hometown! The restaurant is very spacious and family friendly. Skewers taste THE BEST in town, tender and flavourful! Maopo tofu is another must-have dish, which has layering favors not just simple spicy. For their food quality and big portion, their price is very competitive!
The food was good but the service was not good at all. They forgot about the food that we had ordered. Some groups came in after us they had gotten the food before us.
they must not taste what he cooks.
I wish its still Harbin BBQ this place just cant be compared to Harbin. Harbin Is 10x better they dont even have the famous spicy squid tentacles from Harbin(not the BBQ one). What a let down just not the same quality as harbin far far different from quality
Delicious, cheap and big portions! The food is served very quickly! !
Good Chinese BBQ. Price is good for the quality of the food.
So delicious! The most authentic Guobao Pork in North America! The three delicacies, pickled cabbage, and spicy sausage are all very authentic! The best Northeastern restaurant I have eaten in North America in more than 20 years! Highly recommended
We went on a Tuesday night there were quite busy. We ordered the fish, fried instant noodle ssome bbq chicken hearts, bbq chicken skins, bbq eggplant and bbq lamb skewers which had hair inside. We told the waitress and she waived the bbq lamb skewers bill for us. Everything came so fast considering how busy they were except the fish. The fish was half price because its their anniversary promotion. Taste was great not salty nor spicy for us.
Might be my first restaurant review, but this place is awesome. Prices are good for this area and the food is delicious. Would recommend to anyone looking for a more authentic northern chinese cuisine experience and value for money!
food not tasty and hot enough
The food is ok and the price is fair, but waiting time is crazy, we waited 1 hour for the fired rice.
