Sam Woo BBQ

Neighbourhood staple known for their excellent Chinese BBQ, but don’t sleep on their other menu items either! Through the many years my family has been coming here, their food has been consistently tasty, service friendly and prices affordable. A must-go whenever we’re in the area.

This Chinese BBQ restaurant is a long term fixture in Scarborough, consistently great quality and service over the many many years. Featuring all the Cantonese favourites, congee, noodle, rice and stir-fried dishes, family sized portions at reasonable prices.

Decent price and food quality is good. During tea time on a weekday, no line up and sat down right away. After we ordered, food came in about 10 mins. Server offered to serve the congee for us. Taste good but food is so oily. Have “wok air” but just too oily. The bbq pork belly is tender, duck seasoning is ok. Fried dough is not too oily compared to other places. $56 for 3 people, including tax, tip.

Really good Peking duck! The waiters were friendly and one of them was humming a song while serving, you could tell he was happy and it really improved the service. The duck skin was crispy, and the fat tasted clean. They also gave us some complimentary melon slices at the end!Food: 5/5

Be prepared to get the worst parts of a duck if you don’t speak Cantonese. My mom who only speaks Mandarin went to buy half bbq duck today for takeout. When we open the box, there are 6 pieces of duck neck in it! That duck must have a really LONG neck! Other then the neck most pieces have only bones and fat, barely any meats on it. There are only few pieces that was edible. I guess they save the good meat for dinning in customers, Never visiting this place again! Worst customer service ever!

There are many choices on the menu. Food is usually very tasty and fresh. A very popular spot. Front staff are friendly. And appears to be clean. I have been going here as my regular spot for Asian cuisine. Pricing is okay, parking can be difficult to find a close spot due to a busy plaza.

My regularly visit Chinese restaurant in town. Food quality maintained. Large variety and good portion. Friendly Service is always there. Favorite Chinese restaurant in town. Friendly and great service. Excellent food, creative recommended menu. Very affordable price

I recommend this Old Cantonese Chinese - Hong Kong cooking style dining restaurant. book before going, to secure your seats The dishes are fantastic and reasonablly priced. The waitress are experienced. The BBQ takeout are taste much different from American-Chinese BBQ, and can find huge different from those Chinese supper-market's BBQ. I think this place is a very few left in Toronto that operated in old cooking style.

Got bait and switched! Beware! After checking out the roast pork in the display window which looked fresh enough, I asked for 2 rib portions of meat in English. I could not see the selected ribs being chopped as the server's back was towards me. Paid, then went home and opened the container and discovered that I didn't get the fresh-looking roast pork but instead I got day old looking roast pork which was also lukewarm and cold. Went back to confront them but they denied it. I just wanted to let them know that I know what they did and to share my experience with others. Will never go back there again!

Good portion and flavour, fairly price.
