5885 BBQ

Overall, good experience! It was my first time coming here. The place was clean and had a decent amount of seats. When we came, it was a bit busy but we got our food in a good amount of time. I really liked the long bean dish that we ordered! They had a lot to offer on their menu and their servers were nice!

It was my husband’s birthday when we dined in here. He chose this restaurant because of the BBQ on it’s name. He loves BBQ so much and we really do. We passed by so many restaurants and ended up here. The “BBQ” word on its name, he assumed the restaurant specialty would be BBQ. And of course we are customers who want to try different places and keeping it as our to go to whenever we don’t want to cook. The place was not busy, only 2 tables with customers. I appreciate that each table have it’s own hand sanitizer. We tried quail eggs BBQ and squid tentacles BBQ, crispy bun, stir fried pork intestines, scallops with garlic and vermicelli, yang chow fried rice, kung pao chicken and sweet and sour pork. The 2 BBQ came first and I’m glad we tasted it first before ordering more BBQs. We were dissatisfied with the taste. We did not expect the fennel seeds which we’re not a fan of it despite it’s healthy benefits. They used same sauce for the BBQ so both had fennels. It was not mentioned on the menu if it’s spicy so, we expected it was not. But both were spicy and my kid can’t tolerate spicy much. It’s more like an Indian cuisine for the sauce used. Thanks that crispy bun came with condensed milk dip. It was really good! I love the stir fried pork intestine. It was delicious! The scallops as well! It was so garlicky and I liked it. It’s just salty. Which was perfect to mix for the bland yang chow rice. Kung pao chicken was good too! I loved it, lots of peanuts! Lastly, the sweet and sour pork made an impression! We were surprise how it was cooked, no tomato sauce at all. So, the color was different it’s all white no bell pepper too. Maybe this is the version of this place. Tasted more likely of lemon chicken. For the washroom, the door can’t be locked. So you need someone to watch for you. I hope they will fix the knob and change brighter bulb for light. Hand towel dispenser was not working too. Very important place of the restaurant is the washroom. I hope this won’t be taken for granted. If the room is dark you can’t see the dirt though.

Personally not a fan of skewers, but I go for their other dishes. Today we just got the deep fried mantou and garlic cucumber salad, both of which are two of my fave things ever. I can eat them all myself. I like that the restaurant is roomy and very clean, and the atmosphere is nice. Service is also friendly and quick.

We thought that this place closed down! But was really happy that they just changed their name and renovated! The food here is so delicious! So glad we came back to check. Definitely worth the visit!

We enjoyed our lunch here. Food are tasty, maybe a little bit salty to my preference. I love the yeung chow fried rice. Price is good. Service is ok. I. Just concern of the washroom too hard to lock it up. Lots of parking. So many restaurants in the plaza. Lots of Asian sweets and goodies too.

THE BEST Chinese restaurant in North America hands down. It’s so hard finding good northern Chinese / dong bei style cuisine anywhere. This is better than my favorite places in Chicago and NYC . Amazing food, great prices, lovely service. Will be coming here every time we’re in TO

Been here for a late night dinner. Restaurant was not busy and service is a bit slow. Ordered some traditional dishes and they are all tasty but the sweet potato dessert. Open till 2am so a good choice for late food. Price is lower than average. Portion is ok.Recommended dishesBBQ

We went on a Tuesday night there were quite busy. We ordered the fish, fried instant noodle ssome bbq chicken hearts, bbq chicken skins, bbq eggplant and bbq lamb skewers which had hair inside. We told the waitress and she waived the bbq lamb skewers bill for us. Everything came so fast considering how busy they were except the fish. The fish was half price because it's their anniversary promotion. Taste was great not salty nor spicy for us.

Tried this for the first time today and it was so good!!! Lamb skewers were perfectly seasoned although the char on it was lacking but still very good. Also got their grilled fish, it was delicious, fish was perfectly seasoned and so flavorful tip: get vermicilli in it, soaks up all the sauce. So happy I found this late night spot.

Yo the portions are big and nice. Tofu A40 is the bomb. Lamb skewers on point. I love me oysters. 4$ beer. Cheaper than bars. Northeastern price for alcohol.
