Keung Kee Restaurant

They were very generous with their seafood for the seafood congee. The 扣肉 and the eggplant were very nicely done as well. The sweet and sour tilapia was the most upsetting dish out of the eight dishes we had ordered. Overall, it’s a «yes» from me.

The service was really good, was seated and serviced instantly, went around 4pm ish. Im not really a fan of this type of food, im more used to «buffet style» chinese food. So it would be unfair for me to make any remarks. I had that yellowish chicken that you see in all the pictures and garlic beef on broccoli. I really enjoyed the beef. I wanted to go to mandarin but my chinese friend insisted on here. Not a bad experience.

A great place to go for the afternoon tea special, which starts at 3pm. Order anything from the special menu and get a choice of any drink for free. Not just limited to tea and coffee, can order the fancy crushed ice drinks with ice cream at no extra charge.
Typical Hong Kong diner style food, backed rice and spaghetti, large selection of food on both the regular menu and the afternoon tea menu. Been here a few times for dinner and afternoon tea, the portions are decent. The consistently of the food ordered each time is practically the same. The taste of the food is always good and never disappoints. The rice noodle roll comes out steaming hot and is covered with sauces, served with wood skewers. It’s soft and smooth but have to eat it while it’s hot. The fried meats were on point for both dishes, crispy and well seasoned.
Family style restaurant suitable for small or large groups. The service was mediocre but no complaints as it was expected.
Overall, really enjoy the afternoon tea special and definitely a place to keep coming back to.

This is my fav congee place, place is comfort and clean, deco is morden, service is fast and friendly, menu is clear, food is yummy
Their chicken congee is the must-​try item
I have been here more than 15 times and everytime I order SMT new– they never disappoint me!
Tips: ask them for recommendation and they will give u wonderful advice

My grandfather goes to Keung’s occasionally and he suggested we go here for lunch. I figured why not, it was a short drive for him because he lives close by and he likes the food.
Upon arriving to the restaurant, it is really difficult to get into the plaza off Silver Star — and parking is really hard to find. There are a bunch of shops in this tiny plaza, so everyone is trying to either get into the plaza or out. Be careful!
Going into the restaurant, I was greeted with a friendly welcome and was seated. Ordered a Cantonese Chow Mein with some sweet and sour spare ribs, a coffee for myself and a Hong Kong style milk tea for my grandfather.
The chow mein portion was huge, had lots of meat and shrimp. The sweet and sour spare ribs also tasted really good. It wasn’t insanely expensive and the waiter was very friendly.
The only negative comment I have about this place is they «ran out of soy milk,» never has this happened in a Chinese restaurant to me. But hey, there’s a first time for everything.
⁴⁄₅.

I used to come here occasionally but I will not be back. The service here isn’t that great to begin with. Even during non busy hours the workers are slow and do not pay much attention so sometimes you really have to wave them down to get their attention… which is annoying. But I would come back because the food was good.
Well, things have changed. It seems that the prices are going up for the dishes but the quality of the food is going down. With so much choices out there it’s definitely not worth putting yourself through such crappy service for mediocre food.

I am from Los Angeles visiting the Toronto area. The surrounding area has lots of competition (which brings more choices for the customers). Most of the other places are starting to close down since we came pretty late in the evening.
The food here is delicious and it is reasonably priced (per current US exchange rates which is $ 1 to $ 1.31). The milk tea is good since the tea maintained its temperature as i took my last sip from the cup minutes later. The portion size is decent sized and is authentic HK style food.
Will definitely come again next time i visit this area.

I always come here for a late night run. This restaurant is usually open until 2AM. It has fantastic food for a good deal. The restaurant is very clean and there’s usually room for parties of any size.
The menu has a lot of options to choose from so if you’re craving southern Asian food, this is a good spot. I usually get a rice, the pepper salt tofu, and a meat dish. The consistency is on point, and the portions or reasonable.
The deep fried tofu dish is fantastic. Its a great dish and there’s plenty to go around!

Okay food nothing stood out for me but the décor and plating was nice. They have a handful of dishes you wouldn’t normally find at other restaurants which is great.
The prices are average. We had the lo mein, it was okay the soup seemed to be lacking flavor but the toppings (I had the beef delicacies) were flavourful and good.
The chili oil is soo good though.

Cockroach in my congee. Mediocre service. Mediocre Chinese food. There are plenty of other places around, surely they are cleaner. If you walk outside of the restaurant, sometimes they keep their side kitchen door open and you can see all the dirty bins and the meats hanging in open air on top of them. Gross. Gave this restaurant enough chances; will not be returning.

We came for a regular dinner. We ordered a Clam in Spicy Wine ($ 12) and a Pork Chops in Sweet and Sour Sauce ($ 10). The clam entrée was indeed really spicy. The portion was generous. The flavour of pork chop entrée was average. The portion was impressive for the price, though. The pork chops were soft and juicy. Both dishes went well with white rice.
The services was friendly. The décor was contemporary, airy and pleasant. While one of our orders costed only $ 10, most dinner entrees cost over $ 12, including vegetarian dishes.

Came with five others today. Four of us decided to share dishes. We got a scrambled egg and beef rice noodle, a preserved meat sticky fried rice, and a plain rice noodle. Scrambled egg and beef rice noodle was delicious. Portion was large as well. Preserved meat sticky fried rice was decent, but the portion was a tad smaller. Plain rice noodle is one of their specialties, and as always, it was well done. I love how they serve it with skewers. Heads up, the sauce is peanut, not sesame.
For the two who chose not to share, I heard the satay beef instant noodle was good, but that the portion was smaller than it used to be. I also heard that the mango milkshake was very mango-​y.
Their teacups are not traditional Chinese tea cups. They’re now plastic and citrus colored. They’re lovely pops of color.

Well, not all restaurants can’t be good as others. Keung Kee used to have an amazing reputation for their food and customer service. But after today, all good things have to come to an end. I was very disappointed with the food quality and service my family received today for our lunch. The food portions were decent, but they were not executed to proper standards. Although there was a complimentary drink if you order an item over $ 5.99 before 2:30 p.m., it was not worth it due to the long wait time for a simple dish like Stir Fried Turnip Patties, and honestly, it was the worst one I have eaten in my life. Honestly, I would not be returning in the near future unless certain changes are made.

We come here once a year the day we drive up from New Jersey to Toronto on our yearly trip to Canada. Why? My grandma really likes it here.
Every year I can’t say I’ve been disappointed by the food. The service is always very friendly and the dishes satisfying and delightful. Flavors are always very delicate, unlike many Chinese restaurants which bombard you with sweetness or sourness. Try the jook (rice porridge) and noodle dishes.

Before my visit to Keung Kee, I did not have high expectations. My parents have told me that this restaurant was great but I was still skeptical of the quality of food. I decided to give it a try with my friends. Arriving at the restaurant, we were seated and the waitress quickly took our order (see photos of food). The food arrived one after another at a decent time. The sweet and sour pork was good but did not ‘wow’ me. The vegetables did not have much flavor but maintained a good ‘wok hei’. The white cut chicken was decent and the meat tasted well with the rice and green onion. The tofu and fish in steaming pot did not have flavor and disappointed me. Overall, the food was below average. The décor was nice and added a nice ambience when eating. I give this restaurant 3 stars. I recommend this restaurant to people that do not know what to eat for dinner.

Solid 4.5
This review only focuses on the afternoon tea portion of the menu. Afternoon tea runs from 3pm to 530pm everyday. Prices are cheaper for certain dishes and they all come with a drink for free.
Pros:
Big portions
Great prices
Free drink, even cold one
Cons:
Service gets slow when busy
If you’re familiar with Hong Kong style restaurants, they all have an afternoon tea promotion. Basically in the mid afternoon, usually after 3pm to about 5 – 6 pm, they have a couple of dishes priced a little cheaper than normal and they offer a free drink as well.
I love coming here for afternoon tea. They have a lot things to choose from, much more than most other places. The prices are great too. The free drink is nice. I always get a cold HK milk tea. Usually, you’re charged extra for a cold drink. This is standard practice actually but Keung Kee does it for free! Another bonus! YAY!
I loved the baked rice dishes. You choose a sauce, and a choice of protien (pork, chicken, fish etc.) The portions are big so you always leave full.
So if you ever wake up too late on a weekend and you feel like something that can last you to dinner, think about giving Keung Kee a try. This is my go to place on Saturdays when I sleep in. The service can get slow when they’re busy, which they can get on weekends, but nothing that will disappoint you.

Stop reading and just go because their food will blow you away. Seriously, stop and go in already. I cannot describe how excellent their dishes are. I… just…can’t!!!
Bonus: they close at 1:30am so that’s definitely worth the rating cuz good food at late hours is hard to find, here here!

This place is a great Chinese restaurant for lunch classics like rice and noodle dishes, but it’s especially a great pick for dinner since they have good quality and yummy dishes, plus free dessert soup. I come here when I have a craving for roast pigeon and always leave satisfied. The fried turnip patties are also delicious.
The décor is better than average for a Chinese place and service is decent. Food is consistent and the price is right!

Keung’s Delight’s Midland location is not as nice as the one at Steeles and Warden, even though the décor is quite similar.
Now onto the food!
I didn’t enjoy this particular dough fritters rice noodle roll, which is something I usually love. The rice noodle was too sticky and the dough fritters were not crispy enough. All the pieces just ended up stuck together.
Thankfully, fried turnip patties with XO sauce redeemed the meal. Although I would’ve preferred a drier texture to the overall dish, the flavours were really delicious with the XO sauce. However, I still prefer Congee Wong’s execution of fried turnip patties.
Belacan fried chicken wings were very crispy, but I couldn’t really taste the Belacan in the seasoning. Nevertheless, I enjoyed these wings, despite their greasiness.
Deep fried crispy milk blocks were very yummy but rather heavy. After eating three pieces, I felt really stuffed. Not a very light end to the meal. Next time, I’ll need to save more stomach space to conquer these delectable milk blocks!

Ok, well now that I can actually think straight and am not all delusional or sick, I can write a more full review of Keung’s.
Upon careful reflection, I must say that their congee really sucks! They don’t use deboned chicken (to my surprise). I will vouch though, and say that Keung’s is not as heavy on the MSG (which is probably a good thing if you’re sick!) However, from a flavour perspective, when I’m sick, I prefer Congee Wong’s congee as there is a certain indescribable congee-​goodness in every bowl!
Other items I’ve tried at Keung’s that I think are amazing:
Wonton Lo Mein: Definitely generous with the filling of shrimp and pork, and the lo mein was very flavourful… I am craving a bowl right now! However, I will say that it wouldn’t kill them to throw in some greens (bok choy, even lettuce?!)
Street Vendor Cheung Fun: Steamed Rice Noodles sprinkled with sesame seeds with Peanut/​Hoisin Dipping Sauce. DEEEEE-​lish! The rice noodles are nice and soft, and piping hot (so don’t burn yourself from not being able to wait a minute longer to devour it!)
So OVERALL, Keung’s gets a 4 out of 5. If you are going to get their congee, stick with the fish congee, as it is infinitely better than the chicken one (where you could potentially be choking on some chicken bones!)
