HK Garden - Toronto, Ontario

We got here around 2pm on a Saturday and were seated immediately. There was a steady stream of people coming in the whole time we were there, but there were always tables available. The service was a bit slow as there were only two waitresses helping out with ... all the tables. This is a no frills eatery. We wanted to go with a bit of variety so we ordered things that were pretty different. The Club Sandwich came with a lot of ingredients and they definitely didn’t skim out on the portions. The Baked Pork Chop over Rice was also a winner in our book. The flavor was spot on. The Saturday special was the Malaysian Chicken Curry with Spaghetti so we decided to get that. Mistake. It was a bit of a letdown as the curry was fairly watery and a little bit on the bland side. Get the Hong Kong Milk Tea. It’s legit! Read more

The food was below average. Satay Beef Vermicelli Soup (3/5): The satay sauce did not taste like the usual satay beef flavor. Instead, it had an overpowering sha cha sauce taste. Both the beef and the sauce were insufficient. It felt like the ingredients were just thrown together without any harmony. Pickled ... Vegetable and Pork Vermicelli Soup (3/5): The dish had a porky smell. Milk Tea (1/5): The milk tea lacked tea flavor. Lemon Tea(4/5): The lemon tea was the only decent item. It had enough tea flavor. Additionally, the seating was uncomfortable as the sofa chairs were too low. Read more

Reasonably priced, tasty HK cafe in Scarborough. We came around noon on a Saturday and it wasn't very busy - seated immediately. Unfortunately we picked one of the tables close to the door and realized why everyone was avoiding these tables - whenever the door opens a crack, it is ... COLD! We aren't the type to move seats once we're settled so we just crossed our fingers that minimal people would come in during our lunch. The menu isn't as extensive as some HK cafes, missing some notable favorites like Hainanese chicken, but we did manage to find something we liked. We ordered the beef brisket noodles ($11.99) and daily special Malaysian curry chicken ($11.50). We both added $1.50 to make our beverages cold. Both dishes were good, but nothing special. The beef brisket noodles were a great portion but I didn't love the texture of the noodles, which moreso resembled ramen noodles. I wish they gave an option as to what type / thickness of noodles we wanted, as I'm sure they have tons of options in the back. The curry was also decent, they provided a huge portion of rice. Overall I'd recommend this place. Our total was less than $30 before tip. Read more

Nostalgic & unique HK-styled design, with some movie posters hanging around. Price is reasonable. I had the afternoon tea set, beef brisket with rice noodles and milk tea (added $1 for extra large). I would recommend the milk tea, as it tastes quite authentic. They close at 4pm so ... do get there early. It’s a spacious restaurant that reminds me of the good old days of my city, Hong Kong.🙂 Will definitely come again to enjoy a relaxing afternoon! Read more

We arrived early for brunch, and there seems to be a few local customers. Food is ok, just your standard HK style restaurant. The interior is a bit dated, but still comfortable enough. So you can already guess that the price is affordable. I'll return ... if I'm in the neighborhood, but not a restaurant I'll drive across town for. Read more
