Good Catch Cafe - Markham, Ontario

Good Catch Cafe has been one of my go-to Hong Kong cafes over the past few years. In my opinion, one of the better Hong Kong cafes in Markham (huge caveat being that I'm not actually from Hong Kong and my go-to dishes aren't the typical authentic HK Cafe fare). Go ... to has always been either the Double Baked Curry Beef Brisket, or the Double Baked Chicken Cutlet with black pepper sauce. I've found that the food is always really great if its the first time you're having it in a while, but definitely far too heavy and one-dimension in flavor to be something that you have more than once or twice a month. Got the mixed curry beef + fish balls once and thought it was super reasonably priced for decent portions. Surprisingly their fried chicken wings (typical HK style) and fried fish cutlet were really good. Didn't come out particularly oily, and was super crispy and fresh. Haven't gone in a while, but prices were fairly reasonable at around $20 for the baked rice as well as a free drink (believe this is only for some drinks and others require an upcharge). Generally somewhat recommended if you're looking for something more suited for the taste of a CBC, but by no means a culinary experience. Read more

The food came really fast but most of them are not hot all, I can say just warm only except the fries n wings. Need to call for service for plate, water n straws separately, takes forever to get some attention to get our bill at the end too. Wouldn't ... recommend to order calamari here at all as they are so thin n half of the plate filled with peppers n zucchini and they are not even warm when is arrived the table. The worst calamari we ever had. Read more

Huge restaurant with lots of tables and really open floor plan. Took us 5 mins to get our table at prime time lunch on a Saturday. Scrambled eggs and spiced pork on rice might be my new favourite. Absolutely delicious! Service was fairly quick and servers were decently attentive. Will ... definitely be back! Read more

Went for the seafood. Menu for seafood boil has changed since open, they have fewer choices. I do not recommend the calamari, for the price you pay you dont get much and the pieces are very thin as well. The soft shell crab fried rice was okay. Fried oysters were ... okay. We had to ask for water when we sat down...also had to ask for our plates as our dishes started to arrive. Read more

We were actually supposed to go to another place but couldn’t get reservations so we ended up here! Which also requires reservations for a group of 6 or more less than that we have to sign at the kiosk and wait! This place is crazy busy! Like I mean really crazy ... and there’s a 90 min dining time limit. They have a good system going, kiosk sign in and text alert when table is ready and then a QR code system to order your food and apart from our server who was too busy to tc of us another server named Karen was super nice and helpful! They have quite a menu, food was good but not excellent. We got the shareable soft shell crab fried rice, and the sizzling lobster on fries, they were real lobster not the fake ones. Love their presentation and I think I would dine in to try other food items! Definitely recommend this place! Read more
