This was my second visit to Congee Queen. The first time, I dined at the downtown location and found the food to be good value with quick service.nnThis time, the service and speed were still great, but the taste didn’t quite measure up. The congee was not bad but the beef tenderloin recommended by the waitress was just average and a bit salty. The beef in the dry-fried beef ho fun was also a bit dry. Overall, if you’re looking for a quick meal, Congee Queen is a decent choice, but the food quality can be hit or miss.

Wonderful authentic Chinese southern cuisine! Beautiful setting and deco with baked chicken, duck and meat in display just like a restaurant in China. Good  service even during busy dinner time and lots of people here on a weekday night speaks itself about its popularity a must visit if you are in the area and great dining spot for families group of friends

I ordered the empress fried rice, Chinese broccoli, and beef brisket with beef tendon for take out. The pick up was nice and quick and service was nice. There's plenty of parking in the parking lot. The food tasted great and they give you a lot, I was able to spread it into 4 meals. The empress fried rice had a lot of bbq eel but I found it was lacking crab in it. The total came out to be $47.

Food: 3 StarsnService: 3 StarsnAmbience: 3 StarsnValue: 3 StarsnOverall: 3 StarsnnI visited Congee Queen for a casual dinner with my parents, hoping to enjoy some of my favourite dishes in a relaxed setting. Having ordered takeout from here several times before, I was curious to see how the dine-in experience compared. While my visit had its highlights, there were several areas where I felt the restaurant could make some improvements to enhance the overall experience.nnFirst and foremost, the condition of the booth seating caught my attention as soon as I was seated. Many of the booths showed significant wear and tear, with the upholstery visibly worn out in several spots. This gave the restaurant a somewhat neglected feel, which is a shame because the rest of the interior is fairly pleasant. A revamp of the seating would go a long way in improving the overall ambience and making the dining experience more comfortable and enjoyable. For a restaurant with a decent reputation, maintaining the physical aspects of the dining area is crucial, and this is an area where Congee Queen could certainly improve.nnWhen it comes to the food, it was largely as expected—decent and satisfying. The unagi fried rice is one of my personal favourites and didn’t disappoint. The dish was well-prepared, with a good balance of flavours, and the eel was tender and cooked just right. However, I couldn’t help but notice a stark difference in portion sizes between dining in and takeout. The dine-in portions were significantly larger, almost double what you receive when ordering takeout. This inconsistency was a bit surprising and might leave some customers feeling shortchanged if they’re used to ordering takeout. It’s something that the restaurant might want to address to ensure a more uniform experience, regardless of how the food is ordered.nnService during my visit was just okay—nothing to write home about, but also nothing to complain about. The staff were polite and carried out their duties efficiently, but there was a noticeable lack of engagement. A little more warmth or attentiveness could have elevated the experience. I understand that the restaurant was busy, but even during peak times, a bit of personal touch can make a significant difference in how customers perceive their dining experience.nnThe overall atmosphere of the restaurant was alright, but again, nothing particularly memorable. The restaurant’s layout is practical, and the décor is pleasant enough, but with the worn seating and the fairly routine service, it didn’t quite leave a lasting impression. It’s a decent spot for a casual meal, but if you’re looking for a dining experience that stands out, there might be other options that provide a more polished environment and experience.nnIn summary, Congee Queen offers decent food, particularly if you’re a fan of dishes like the unagi fried rice, but there are some aspects that could use attention. The condition of the booth seating is in dire need of a revamp, and the inconsistency in portion sizes between dine-in and takeout could be addressed to provide a more cohesive experience for all customers. Service is passable, but a little more engagement from the staff could improve the overall dining experience. While I wouldn’t hesitate to return for the food, especially the unagi fried rice, I hope the restaurant takes steps to address these issues to elevate the overall experience.nnkellychan360

Afternoon Tea Menu comes with a FREE drink.nnCongee Queen is considered Cantonese Chinese Cuisine. With 9 locations across the GTA, they are still one of my family favourite restaurants. One can dine in or do takeout.nnThey have a weekday afternoon tea special promotion going on now between 3:00 to 5:00 PM. You can buy a meal combo that comes with a drink. Options are milk tea, lemon tea, coffee, bubble milk tea or red bean with ice cream.nnYou can pay either cash, debit or credit card.nThis is part of a mall with direct access to the parking lot. It’s conveniently located at edge of North York and Thornhill and it’s part of the TTC bus route system. Finch Subway station is just South of here on Yonge Street.nI like the fact, it’s a one stop shop. You can do groceries or shopping then eat at the restaurant afterwards or beforehand.nIt’s a busy place as they are surrounded by apartments and condos and homes.
