Wok & Roast Chinese BBQ Restaurant - Toronto, Ontario

Roast pork skin S tier. There were a mix of lean and fatty pieces.

We've had Wok & Roast take out before and enjoyed it. Wanted to try dining in and did so recently. It is a well appointed, nice cosy, dine in space. The service was fast and attentive and the food was fresh and tasty. Lots of lean chicken in the sweet & ... sour and the right combo of crispy and sauced noodles in the Cantonese Noodles. All ingredients in dishes were fresh and tasty. A pleasant change from take out or delivery! Read more

Review for Wok & Roast is based on in-person purchase directly at the restaurant. It looks like this place has mixed reviews so I can only share my opinion based on in-person purchasing for take out. If you like the Chinese bbq boxed meals, then Wok & Roast is a great ... option. Located at the heart of the Broadview Gerrard Chinatown, Wok & Roast has been around forever (it sure seems that way). Featured in the images are their boxed bbq meals (2 item with bbq pork and roast pork; bbq pork only) and come with garlic broccoli included. You will also be asked if you want sauce on your rice (we always say yes). The BBQ pork is always flavourful, not too salty with a touch of sweetness. The roasted pork consistently has crispy skin and again, flavourful without being too salty and has an essence of 5 spice powder. Now, depending on which section of pork you get, you may get fattier or leaner cuts. Be sure to identify what you want to the staff so they can get you what you want. You can ask for leaner or fattier. We opt for the leaner cuts. Just keep in mind, lean doesn't mean completely free of fat. Boxed bbq meals come in small or large. I find both very generous. Another thing we like to pick up at Wok & Roast is their fried chicken wings. Get a large box for around $10 and it's generous. Flavour isn't too salty with a hint of 5 spice. Some might find bland but for me, it does the trick and doesn't seem too oily which I like. If you're not into boxed bbq meals, they also have rice and noodle dishes along with other Chinese dishes that come straight from the kitchen. You can eat in, take out, or do delivery. Can't comment too much on these but like I said, if you want a generous bbq boxed meal, you can certainly give these a try. They are our go-to place for bbq when we're in the area. Read more

Scam alert! Stay away from this store. Order from Uber, the Roasted pork and tofu on rice. The roasted pork is all pork fat without meat a little tiny piece of meat attached to the big trunk of pork fat. They also put some random pieces of pork borne, literally ... only borne without meat. Don’t order from them, pictures are totally different from real food you receive. Read more

After all these years it’s still one of my grandma’s fav restaurant! Food was served steaming hot and was delicious!
