Cantonese Restaurants near Richmond Hill, ON

“It was strange, the dishes I ordered (spaghetti bolognese and iced lemon tea) were really delicious, but my bf got Portuguese chicken and iced ying yuen and he said they both tasted weird/not normal. The Portuguese chicken contained pineapple which was unexpected, and he said the ying yuen just didn't taste that good compared to what he's had before. I agree that there really shouldn't be pineapple in Portuguese chicken, but I can't confirm whether it tasted bad or not; I guess if you love pineapple you might enjoy it. They also give a starter soup, and we were given the corn soup, and that was super yummy. Overall it was an average experience for an HK cafe, and depending on what you get it can be a hit or miss.“

I recently checked out 老街肠粉 Millstone Rice Rolls, and I was genuinely impressed by the incredible quality of the food and the unbeatable value. The restaurant itself has a very nice and bright atmosphere, making it a comfortable and welcoming spot to grab a quick, satisfying meal. I also really loved the traditional Hong Kong-style touch right at the beginning of the meal—they provided a cup of hot water for us to rinse our utensils. It is a small detail, but an authentic and highly appreciated one.

The food is where this place truly shines. The deep-fried dough stick rice roll is an absolute 10/10. The contrast between the soft rice noodle and the crispy dough is perfect, and the sauce they pour on top is simply amazing. We also ordered the shrimp with seasoned pork rice rolls, and they were phenomenal. The sweet and savoury soy sauce was perfectly balanced, the meat was incredibly flavourful, and the freshly made rice rolls literally melted in your mouth. We also tried the dried shrimp rice rolls, which were just as delicious and packed with umami.

To round out the meal, we ordered some congee, which was comforting and hit the spot. I also got a warm soy milk, and it was incredibly fresh—perfectly sweet, rich, and creamy without being overpowering.

In this economy, finding a fulfilling and affordable meal can be tough, but Millstone Rice Rolls completely delivers on value. For two people, our entire feast came to under $50, and that includes the tip! You really cannot beat those prices for the quality and freshness you are getting.

The service was decent, but to be completely honest, it was practically non-existent. You are mostly left to your own devices once the food arrives. However, for a casual, fast-paced eatery, this wasn't a dealbreaker for us at all.

Overall, the fantastic flavours and amazing prices make this place an absolute winner. I will definitely be back to try the other rice rolls and dishes they have on their menu!

“Writing this review while drinking their soup.
I'm so grateful to have a good soup store near my house. I always get soups here when I'm sick or when I simply want something nourish.
The soups are very comforting. The owners are always nice and welcoming. Will keep coming back to support them!“

“Had the roast and BBQ pork. This is to die for. It's busy at lunch time for good reason.. people drive from far away to get here for this.. even the rice has a special taste. And prices.. a double dish cost me 13.. and I can not eat it all.. so many other foods as well chicken duck. You just have to come.. cash only.. but we'll worth the wait.. show up early. 11 am you order and wait.. at 12 you are waiting out the door.. its that good.. it will not disappoint“

“Excellent reasonably-priced fresh seafood 😋“

“Quick lunch with a friend. Ordered some chicken and duck congee ,dough stick and bbq 2 item combo (duck and bbq pork). Also came with some yummy pork soup. Service was friendly and food was delicious and made fast. Place was clean and busy for 1:30pm on a Monday.“

“Always a great spot for lunch and economical. Every time I go, there is a constant stream of people that come in for both dining and takeout. It is a family runned restaurant with limited staff, so the service is quite slow when it’s busy.

The food is always hot and tasty. The lunch specials are $8.75 or $9.75 and from 11am to 5pm everyday. It’s a great value!

I have also included another picture of what other dishes are available at this restaurant, but I don’t have pricing for those.“

“Great food it’s a very clean place with amazing service and great comfort food too definitely a good spot for people who love freshly pulled noodle and noodles amazing a great spot for people looking for a place to eat will come again! 💕❤️👍“

“Coming soon this summer yeahh !!“

“I gave a 5 stars was becos' u know what I went there so many times, went for lunch , bunch & supper too. So, there was good & bad abt. this. I tell u u have to try the pineapple crust topping bbq pork buns. I could eat a doz at 1 go, but of cos' I did not do so, there r other food to taste. Too bad for their deals , u can only choose A or B, & also only 1, u cannot choose 2 of A. So we had to go back to try the B. I preferred the B. If u had to choose, choose B. The tray of goodies r very good. The supper was ok. So I can show u some of the food we had.“

“Yummy food and great service“

“An asian food court stall and this one has to be one of my fave spots.

The food here for the price is awesome. Cannot beat the price especially the noodle and rice dishes. The Shanghai fried noodle and the beef fried rice noodle are both under $10 which is a great deal compared to competitors that are going to be well over the $10 mark.

The noodles have great wok hei and the noodles I could eat over and over again. The other good thing is that it all comes with a drink. I have tried the cold soy milk and the cold chrysanthemum tea. Both go very well with the dishes here as it’s cooling with all that wok hei.

They also have course meals which you can choose from several options. And all at a good price too. Can’t remember how much it came out to, but I think the 6 course meal was about $70 if I am not mistaken.

Service is quick and they do speak Cantonese and Mandarin, but I tried some items in English and it was fine.

Super quick turnaround to get your order too.

Parking can be difficult when it is meal times as there isn’t enough parking for the amount of restaurants in this plaza. So will have to be patient or park in the adjacent area where the no frills is.

Great job overall“

“Food 4/5
Service 4/5
Vibe 3/5 (food court so nothing fancy)

If you want something fast and not needing to wait in like for those Hong Kong Style Cafe in Markham, this is the place!

It is technically open kitchen😂so everything is made fresh upon your eyes.

I love their pan fried vermicilii and hong kong style ice milk tea! (It can get bitter sometimes so ask for more sugar, they are nice)

Overall great pricing, easy and homey! 5/5“

“Have been going here since 2017. My kid grew up eating this home meal ?. This place is perfect for young professionals couples who are both busy working and taking care of young kids and don't have much time to cook healthy yet yummy Chinese home cook meals.Did I mention the ? soup? It comes with every meal and not oily at all. Love it!To get their weekly menu, call them directly and ask to be included in their mailing list.“

“Came here on a snowstormy Sunday. There was still a small line but only a 5 minute wait. They only accept cash. Value for money, the food was good! Roast pork was crunchy. I paid additional $2 to get belly. The soup that comes with the order was perfect for a cold snowy day. Not much for service. It’s transactional. They want you in and out fast.“

“Went here on a weekday night and there were many tables available.

The claypot rice was good. The rice was delicious and had a nice crispy layer on the bottom. The toppings were ok.

We ordered a few other dishes and I felt that the flavouring was a hit or miss. Like some were over-seasoned and some were under.“

“STILL our favourite place for Chinese Casserole Rice spot in Markham✨A MUST GET in our books here is their Olive Veg & Beef on Rice (Add a Raw Egg and thank me later!!). The Olive Veg adds so much umami to the tender Beef slices and Rice, mixed with Raw Egg and their Sweet Soy, so BOMB! Preserved Meat & Minced Pork had mixed Chinese Preserved Meats, all that on top of their Minced Pork Patty, it was lovely as well😋“

“I ordered the casserole rice with three toppings — BBQ eel, assorted preserved meat and BBQ pork — and it was absolutely delicious. The rice had a lovely smoky crust at the bottom, the toppings were rich and full of flavour, and everything was cooked perfectly. The flavours really took me back to Hong Kong, and the soy sauce is what makes it outstanding. Service was friendly and efficient, and the food came out piping hot. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Gourmet Kitchen is tucked away in the corner food court at the Silver Star plaza. Got the lo mai fan (Cantonese sticky rice) and it was so flavourful!! Rice was well made and there was a very good variety and portion of toppings. Their service is fast and meals even come with a drink. Remember to bring cash!“

“We love the food, and we also come here for large meals with friends. They're always wonderful.“
