Choy’s Chinese Food - Winnipeg, Manitoba

I used to love the deluxe wonton here. I don't like wonton as a rule. But unfortunately, this really made me rethink my return. Mushy overdone cooked mess in a container. Well, that is exactly what I got. I'm not coming back. Meat taste: was on the verge of spoiling.

Choy's WAS the Chinese restaurant my family ordered from regularly. While we heard some did not like it, we loved the Kung Pao Chicken and Choy's Special Hot Beef, though they weren't quite as good last time we ordered, and neither were a couple of our other choices . A ... typical order for us was 6-7 dishes. Last time we were there we were even asked how to make veal with pineapples. They said they had a new cook. My husband noticed, what he thought was, new management. I believe this is likely true, based on my recent experience. While I congratulate new owners, if applicable, I would miss the old team. They seemed to take an interest is us as customers and were very friendly. I would suspect the new person answering the phone could be alright, but the last two times we called she was impersonal and gruff. To make matters waaaay worse, in ONE MONTH, the bill for six dishes jumped SEVENTEEN DOLLARS!!! I thought a mistake could have been made so called back and, with a gentle approach, asked if we could review the bill. Right away, she snapped about supplier costs. I didn't care. I just wanted to go over my bill. She didn't even do that! She took a minute then stated it's right. So, I canceled my order, wished her well, and told her we'd need to order elsewhere (note: The other Chinese restaurants in the area have WAY HIGHER RATINGS, anyway!). I went to the website, and the prices are updated from their paper menu, so you can assess the value yourself. Wherever you order from, I wish you a Tasty dinner! Read more

Grossly overpriced for what you get, chicken fried rice looked unappealing to say the least. Chicken looked raw on top and wasn’t mixed at all in, all for almost $10. Disappointed.

Do not eat here. Ordered the chicken fried rice and it was practically over fried rice with shredded uncooked chicken on top. Called to complain and say I want a different order or refund and said they don’t do that. I expressed I was very disappointed and an unsatisfied customer and ... she didn’t see to care. Also very over priced for the portions. Read more

I've had Choy's a few times over the years and I'd say their flaw is pretty consistent. Time management. Besides, when they had a small boy working the counter. They seem to get flooded with orders and it sometimes takes 15-25 minutes longer than what they originally stated. No ... knock on their food. It seems freshly fried instead of sitting under a heat lamb. I recommend the sweet n sour shirmp and the breaded veal. If I was able to give a half star, they'd be 3.5. Thanks for making me food when I didn't want to cook! Read more
