Cantonese Restaurants in Scarborough, ON

“This place has been one of our regular spots since 2015, and it never disappoints. It’s tucked inside a food court, so the vibe is pretty basic — no fancy seats or decor, just a casual, no-frills setup. But don’t let that put you off — the food here is the real deal.

We usually get the white cut chicken rice or soy sauce chicken rice. Both come in classic takeaway-style boxes and taste just like the dishes you’d find in Guangdong or Hong Kong. The portions are solid — enough to fill you up without breaking the bank. The soup that comes with it is kind of bland, but honestly, it’s not the main event.

The service is fast, even during the lunch rush, and the cashier is always friendly. It can get a bit hectic, but that’s part of the charm. Most of the crowd are middle-aged Chinese locals, which says a lot about how authentic the food is.

All in all, this spot offers great value and consistently tasty food. If you’re into Cantonese flavors and don’t mind a casual setting, this is absolutely worth checking out. We’ll definitely keep coming back.“

“Over last 5 years or so have been exploring more and more of the east Asian food options in the northeast of the GTA. Added Yummy to the list of must go, economical Cantonese breakfast/lunch spots. Had meant to ages ago but was regular at another restaurant next door. Noticed Yummy was always full; always a good sign. My chinese barber recommended Yummy as one of best places of this type in Eastern GTA. She is not wrong. I had congee with abalone and chicken with dough fritters. So rich and tasty. Their chile oil also excellent. If you are a fan of good Cantonese street food in low key setting, this is worth a try. I know I will be back. Oh yeah, and friendly staff.“

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

“When I was working at Guangdong TV station more than 30 years ago, I often went to the nearby "Dake" food stall to eat. Stir-fried beef rice noodles, hand-pulled rice rolls, chicken rice porridge, braised pig intestines, cold melon beef, etc. were all must-haves for us. Called Xiaodian. Unexpectedly, a "Dake" porridge, noodle and porridge shop opened in Toronto many years ago. The store's hand-pulled rice rolls have thin, tender skin, and the porridge is made with authentic ingredients, full of flavor, and is reasonably priced. Worth recommending.“

“Edit Jun 2022This time we ordered via Fantuan (pickup). Same good experience. We especially LOVE the 鹹魚肉餅飯. Look at that big piece of salted fish!! It's rare to see. Other restaurants usually just mixes some minced salted fish in the pork. Unfortunately 腸粉 is way too hard/chewy, especially when it cools down a bit.2021I visited this place for takeout coz my mom had a sudden crave for 油條 and 粽. Price is good, food is tasty, but the wait time is ridiculously long. Almost 30 minutes.“

“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!“

“雲吞及水餃都係萬錦，列治文山同行水準之上。招呼在疫情期間也可算是上佳，值得推介!“

“I’ve been to this place many times, and it never disappoints! Their Peking roast duck is absolutely delicious—crispy skin, tender meat, and very reasonably priced. I also love taking the leftover duck bones home to make a rich and flavorful noodle soup.

The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Every visit feels like catching up with an old friend, and chatting with her always brightens my day.

Highly recommend this place!

最爱片皮烤鸭，鸭子，酱都很好吃！“

“A great spot for 煲仔饭 at a very reasonable price. Portions are generous, and the meal comes with greens and soup, making it both filling and balanced. Good and clean store as well. Got some Popeyes while we waited for the 煲仔饭 to be served.“
