Jim Chai Kee Noodles

This restaurant is over 20 years old and is now a self service restaurant. You place your order at the counter, get your own tea or hot water, pick up your food, and place your tray back on the rack when you are done.

Everything is now served using plastic or disposable containers and chopsticks. Food is still decent and I would recommend if you are looking for a quick meal.

However, it seems like they don't expect tips anymore.

Amazing wonton noodles, shrimps are big and noodles are al dente
exactly like how it tasted in hong kong

Best wonton noodles. The bouncy noodles shines over the wonton. The wonton is awesome too with big full shrimps inside. So far I haven't had a place that is better than Jim Chai kee.

Very good. I will definitely be back. Wonton is huge, shrimp is nice quality, beef very tender. Noodle is very nice and soup is standard. Their chili sauce is spicy too which is nice.

I decided to visit this location after over 10 years as there is a Big Trio near my house and if I wanted Jim Chai Kee I usually went to the Scarborough location since I used to work nearby.

As I can recall, water is still self-served. The restaurant itself is more like a food court now; you place your order at the counter and pay right away. You also pick up your food at the counter - they don't bring it to you. Even their utensils are disposable ones.

And meanwhile, aside from the 1-2 ladies working inside the kitchen, the workers are either on their phones or grumpy or both. Customer service definitely needs improvement especially compared to the Scarborough location where workers are friendlier and more polite.

Food is fast, fresh, and delicious still and makes up majority of the points I gave. Because you pick up your own food and serve your own drinks (which by the way only hot water was available when I went) they don't expect tips so there's that.

Towards the end of my meal, the place also stunk up like an unsanitary seafood market which was unappetizing.

TLDR: unless distance is an issue, go to the Scarborough location.

One of my go to spots for wonton noodles. They’re fast, consistent, and they use good quality ingredients. They have a new promo that they started for a pretty good deal. You can get two noodles (each with two toppings) for $20 (you save $6 off). We got two of the beef and wonton noodles and a plate of veggies. The veggie dish is usually $6 so it’s like we got that for free.

Edit: the promo is now from 2pm and onwards.

I wouldn't really call the interior a restaurant, it's more of a takeout place.

The food portions aren't bad but I remember a day when it was a lot more affordable.

I have been coming here for years to enjoy their noodles with toppings. Great healthy and tasty food with awesome value! Love their wontons and soup. The soup is clean and not greasy at all. Fresh and fast. They are just as good as when I first tried this place many years ago.

Rarely do you find a place like this.
How often do you ask yourself if the quality has gone down at one of your favorite restaurants? At this place, that is never the case!
