Favourite place to eat in the city. Jenni and her team are the best. The food is always fresh and delicious. Highly recommend the bbq ribs (well done) ;) and Cantonese chowmein. All of the dishes never disappoint!
Best Canadian Chinese food around. I highly recommend the peppered tenderloin, peppered squid (squeeze some lemon juice on these beauties), Shanghai noodle and the spicy eggplant. Hot and sour, egg rolls and spring rolls are also great.

Dinner here on a Friday night was full of middle to older aged white people (like myself) which shows you the type of chinese food older Canadians like. It is good and steady North American style Chinese food. Plentiful plates, reasonable prices and served with care and a smile from the server. Better than home delivery because the food was hot and not sogged out by travelling in containers. I love the dry ribs but miss the days of MSG which gave them more zest :). This gluten and MSG world is healthier but less flavourful. Great place to bring the family for Chinese but not to impress a date. Would return.

I have been ordering Chinese food from The Choice Orient ever since I moved to Richmond Hill over 20 years ago . Have I ever had an unsatisfactory meal from them ....let me think about that ....nope.Today once again I have just ordered a smaller meal but large or small the price is quite fair for good quality dinners . They have outlasted really all other Chinese food restaurants in the RHill.I'm getting hungry and ready to attack the food ..LOL.

we ordered crispy beef and the chicken in peanut sauce.both had a bland taste.the beef tasted like very old deep fry oil.And the chicken had no flavor, the sauce tasted like cornstarch with bit of sugar.I got it for takeout.We just finished our meal. We were hungry so we ate this food.Dont recommend.T&T self serve bar has better food.

This location is terrible. Travel to Woodbridge.. do not go to this location. 80% of the food was tasteless and watered down. Ordered via uber eats. No need to go into detail on the items I got because I would not recommend coming here as a result of my dissatisfaction.
Excellent food. Tasty selection of chicken, beef, pork & seafood. Extensive menu to meet all palates. Service is fast & friendly.

Did take out here for the first time. Food was delivered hot and quick. Driver was very friendly and the food tasted great with lots of leftovers. We’ll definitely be ordering from here again.

I have been coming here for more than 10 years, and I wouldn't listen to any of the negative reviews. The food is fantastic. The problem is that in Toronto, a lot of people judge Chinese restaurants using 2 criteria: 1)Is it "authentic"? 2)Is it expensive?Choice of The Orient is made for those of us that are obsessed with the type of Chinese restaurants you find in NYC or LA, like PF Chang's, the so-called "Americanized" Chinese restaurants. Another problem is that if something is slightly expensive, Torontonians will give it a poor review just by default.The food is excellent here. Highly recommended.Vegetarian options: Really great options for vegetarians.

I made a reservation over a month ago to celebrate 4 birthdays in my family. I made the reservation for the private dining room, when I went there, over a month ago, to make sure it was adequate. I called to confirm a week ago and confirmed the private room for 5:30 on Sept 9. I called on Sept 8 to confirm the number of diners - 9. I received a message in the evening of Sept 8 to say that someone else had booked the private dining room. Did not hear it then. I started calling early on Sept 9 to find out if the reservation for the private dining room was not valid any longer. I called at least 6 times but always the same - no one there and no room for messages. I finally got through to a live person at 2 p.m., when they opened on the Saturday, and they confirmed I did not have a reservation for the private dining room. They said I could eat in the regular restaurant and I told them NO - I was not interested after they had failed so badly with the reservation. I will NEVER go there to eat.
