Congee wong is so cheap. Ordering Emperor Porridge for takeout is half the price of dine-in.

Last Saturday, we went to Congee Wong, located at Finch and Leslie Square, for lunch, and ordered three dishes including a dish of Deep Fried Sea Bass with Secret Sauce (refer to photo #1 from the menu). As you know, sea bass is a luxury seafood, which should has a mild and delicate flavour, and meatier quality than any other fishes. However, we were extremely disappointed with such a dish which was substituted with some other cheap fatty fish. We only tasted the dish at the time but didn't finish it. The photo #2 attached shows a big uneatable portion (fish bone and skin) of the fish from the dish we didn't finish but brought home.
We condemn this dishonest business practice and hope you will not become the second victim.

Food is always fresh, portions are big and food tastes amazing. Congee wong is the best congee place in town.

Pretty good place. I like it because it feels more friendly and less fancy than Congee Queen. The food is very similar, I think it’s the same company. A new special menu just came out - with innovative dishes like special mushrooms, rice noodle roll with beef and truffle flavour. Good job to the chefs for creating new dishes!
The prices are still Ok, they’ve gone up a lot since the pandemic but it’s still affordable for me. I have come here with many friends and the food is consistently fresh and tasty. Thank you Congee Wong, you make my life so much better. However, I find the servers a bit slow or inattentive at times but that might be because I eat alone often, during off peak hours. They have a great deal between 3-5 pm weekdays where there’s a special menu and you get either a HK milk tea, lemon tea, or red bean with ice cream drink free. I think people get the red bean with ice cream a lot in that weekday afternoon special. It’s very worth it. Everything else is fine.

I haven't been to this place in years and it was a delight to eat here. The food was delicious especially the salted fish fried rice and the seafood congee. We also ordered the cauliflower with Chinese sausage which was nice and light. Overall, nice food.

Congee Wong will always have a nostalgic place in my heart since it is one of the original restaurants my parents would take me to growing up.
The food is pretty solid and portions are massive. Most dishes are between $15-20 with each dish enough to serve more than one person. We ordered four dishes for four people and took a large amount of leftovers home. Servers here were very nice and friendly and the atmosphere is a nice mix of booths and tables with a lot of space.
Parking right in front of the restaurant can be a bit of a pain but if you're able there is a really big parking lot behind the building.
Parking: Park in the back if you are able to walk a short distance.

Soy milk taste soured and spoiled. Changed for a new one after, still tastes the same. The soy milk has gone bad and tastes sour and thick. I went to the store to get a new one, but it still went bad.

I've been there several times. The corn patties and snowfish are very good. The fish itself is relatively fresh and deep-fried, and the portion is plentiful! But the tomato flavor of the mandarin duck rice is not strong enough, I hope it can be improved. Will continue to come here to eat.
