China Bistro

This restaurant has been the locals favorite and go to restaurant for authentic Cantonese food. While my dad was alive, he had been coming here for lunch almost every Sunday after church. He was a chef and he liked the food here. It must be good. This is my first time here with my wife. We ordered a few dishes to test out their authenticity. We got a dried scallop with egg white fried rice, seafood tofu in clay pot and a gailan( Chinese broccoli) with dried squid. Both the prices and tastes for the dishes are excellent. These dishes all tasted fantastic and full of flavors. We called this type of flavor Wokhei (flavor created by very hot wok) which is an unspoken essential part of good Cantonese food. Ingredients in all dishes were fresh and abundant. They don’t skim on them. My dried scallop fried rice with egg white had a lot of dried scallops and crab meats in the rice. Not too many restaurant put that much expensive dried scallops in a fried rice dish. One dish stands out from this restaurant is the Gailan with dried squid. This vege dish has intense fresh seafood flavor. They had cooked this right by using the appropriate amount of soy and oyster sauce to integrate the dried scallop to create the right flavor and taste. Right now, the restaurant only offers outdoor dining with limited seatings. So come early for lunch as this place tends to get crowded during lunch time. We’ll come back to try their other dishes soon.

Excellent place, delicious entrees and a great variety. We had orange peel chicken, special house chicken, green beans/wide noodles and the crispy noodles. Try it, you'll really enjoy it. Highly recommended!

Fast and great service! and the staff are so nice!

Like many Chinese restaurants, not all 200 plus items on the menu are good. China Bistro is situated at a former McDonald's. They offer lunch specials till 5pm as well as midnight menu. My favourite dishes here are the Pork Belly with Preserved Vegetables, French Style Fish Fillet, and the Seafood Chow Fun with XO Sauce. The staff at China Bistro speak Cantonese, Mandarin and English fluently. They are efficient and courteous which is a far cry at most Chinese restaurants. Ample parking available on both sides of the parking lot or street parking.
