Choice Of The Orient Restaurant

I have to say, I enjoyed every single bite of the meal! The price is very reasonable and it’s definitely a good deal for lunch! I recommend to everyone! I would like to come back here again and again.

Attractive interior. Good service. Good food. On the expensive side. For about the same money we could do The Mandarin. Quite enjoyable. I didn't give it a 5 only because I don't give a 5 unless the restaurant is amazing. Would I go back? Yes.

Ordered beef with flat noodles and bean sprouts, general tso chicken with vegetable spring roll and was very disappointed when I received my order. The vegetable spring roll was very mushy inside and I can tell it was frozen and fried. It tasted very stale. The beef with flat noodle was over cooked and too soft and did not taste fresh. The general chicken also tasted like it was not made to order. I ordered expecting better quality. I’ve had better outcomes in the past but today I cannot say the same.

While the interior is nice and the service is good, this is not a Chinese restaurant. They don't even give you chopsticks and the food is not prepared as it should be. Everything we ordered was flavourless. I've been to many asian restaurants before and ordered the same dishes but this place isn't even close to the same taste. If you don't want authentic Chinese food, then here is the place for you.

This is a review for takeout Sadly, his favourite dish, the Peking chicken $13.95, was the worst of the meal. It’s an item that doesn’t travel well, not because it becomes soggy – typically, it’s not crispy anyways, since it’s slathered in a thick sweet sauce – but rather because it’s made from lean chicken breast that’s cut into thick chunks, which after being sealed in a hot container for half an hour becomes SO overdone. My suggestion to COTO is consider cutting these thinner so that even overcooked they’re not quite as tough. Not being a fan of things like lemon chicken, the orange beef $13.50 had the same repulsive citrusy meat taste I detest. Nonetheless, I tried a piece and once the fruity flavour subsided, the spicy savoury sauce that was left behind was actually quite tasty. Give me the beef with Chinese broccoli $13.50 any day! Wok tossed with some oyster sauce, the dish doesn’t taste like it’s mixed with dish soap and there’s so much of the tender gai lan crammed into the container. Unlike chow mein, the noodles in the mixed vegetables lo mein $11.95 are left soft, which you would think is better for delivery. Except, it gets so soft that the dish has no texture at all. Thankfully, we had gotten an order of moo shu pork and the leftover filling went perfectly with the noodles, adding crunch and extra flavours that the lo mein was lacking. COTO provides four large pancakes with their moo shu pork $11.95 - you can really stuff these to the brim. Nonetheless, there was plenty of the wok hay laced filling leftover, a delicious addition to other dishes like the lo mein and fried rice. Despite the chicken fried rice $8.50 being such a rich hue, the soy taste was rather weak. On its own the dish is too bland, but considering it’s generally eaten in lieu of steamed rice, I can see why it’s left neutral so that it doesn’t become too salty once you add saucy dishes on top.

We dined here with my family on Nov5th 2022 and it was the worst Chinese food we ever had. The wonton soup was bland and had frozen vegetables. I had better wonton soup from a can. I had the shrimp and lobster sauce and it had no taste and the sauce was thick like jello. The beef with broccoli didn't have sauce and was dry with no taste. I would not recommend this place to anyone. The service was ok but when we complained about the food they laughed it off. They know the food is bad. Never again.

Amazing as always New Years take out. Prices have gone up since last year due to inflation but this is still my go to place for good quality Chinese food with great service.Recommended dishesChicken Fried Rice, General Tao Chicken

We've been going to Choice of the Orient for years and the last few times we found the food disappointing. We ordered food over the weekend and one of the dishes was peppered ribs which more than half was coated fried pork fat. Not happy, I don't know why they think we won't notice. Won't order again from there. Thought we would give them a second chance on Oct. 26, 2022 Same, their quality has gone down. We ordered over $200.00 worth of food and we're not impressed. The mixed vegetables with almonds had 95% onion and celery and we counted 12 almonds. 3rd time not happening
