Hong Kong Gardens Tavern and Restaurant

The food selection is limited but is very good. The place is nice.
It’s open very late and it’s very convenient.
The service is so so if you stay there.

Got some late evening take out since everything else in the area was closed.
Wonton soup and general chicken were decent.
It’s pretty tough to mess up rice but this one was fried and re-​fried many times over (probably because it was left over at the end of the day).
Salt and pepper shrimp were inedible — not de-​shelled, too much msg/​salt (shouldn’t have ordered it since its usually a hit or miss dish, especially from a place you’re not familiar with)
You probably need to know what to order from the menu. They’ve been in business for a long time, so they must be doing something right. However, this customer got unlucky…

Great Chinese-​Canadian food. Vegetables were fresh and not over cooked. Chicken as tasty. Had the Broccoli and Beef, HK Special Rick, Phoenix Next and of course Chicken Balls. My kids and I had a great meal.
If you are looking for a good filling meal that reminds you of the Chineses food from your childhood, this is your place.

This little underdog packs a punch, when it comes taste & health! Esp. Taste! This honourable family gives Wonderful service, and even though the looks score around a 65% dont au-​tomatically pass this spacious restaurant!

Excellent phone reception and all around customer service! and Good Food woo hoo!
Helped move a friend into a new apartment yesterday and she rewarded us with free chinese food. As a Unilocal elite cough God cough I was the chosen one to find a delivery place and I was so lucky to find Hong Kong Gardens. Unilocal put them at a decent 3.5 rating with a 3.8 rating on google and 4.1 on a similar delivery/​review site. Phoned them up at 10:45pm and they were still open and what’s more, the female receptionist was super helpful in helping us place our order since we didn’t have menus and she was extremely accommodating, e.g. offering to modify our combo meal, adding plenty of paper plates & cutlery since all the kitchen supplies were still packed in boxes. She told us the delivery would probably take less than 45 minutes and I was skeptical but nope — our order showed up within 20 — 25 minutes! Delivery guy was really friendly and welcoming and I’m happy they appreciated gaining a few new customers… they even threw in a complimentary bag of Chinese dry noodle snacks which were still warm on arrival.
Our order:
–Combo for 2: Egg rolls (crispy goodness), Chicken chow mein (probably the freshest and biggest pieces of chicken I have tasted from a Chinese delivery joint in a long while), chicken balls & sauce (real chicken inside — we all agreed they were great), chicken fried rice (it was ok, the original combo comes with pork fried rice). A few packets of cutlery+pepper+salt, plum sauce, hot sauce & soy sauce :)
–4 cans of pop
–Crispy ginger beef (a unique dry spice batter on the beef… different from the excess of ginger beef sauce that I’m used to. It was ok — definitely better than the one at East Moon’s in North York. But I suspect it won’t be easy to find a good crispy ginger beef in this city… not like how it’s done in the National Capital Region anyway).
–Fortune cookies
GRAND TOTAL: $ 41.50
BONUS: No delivery charge!
SUPER BONUS: The receptionist called back to make sure all the food arrived on time and that we were satisfied with our order and of course we were :) That was a nice touch and we were all impressed with the quality of their service. Highly recommend this place!

My new fav place for general tso chicken! Strongly recommend this place if your a fan of general tso chicken.

A legend in the KINGSWAY. Family run for years. They provide excellent chinese food in a fun and casual dining room. The décor is a trip back in time. Superb wonton soup and stellar fried rice.

Cheap and decent Chinese-​Canadian food. Rather long menu, as previous reviewer noted. Pleasant considerate service. Not something for a special treat, but good for a quick Chinese fix if in the area.
