their food is alright. prices are relatively cheap and they are pretty generous with their portions. i don't know they just taste like your standard chinese food so don't rly know how to say. i like the soup they give you LOL (im positive it has msg but whatever tastes okay to me)

i went here one rainy school day with my mom like back in October 2015. we were seated next to this lady and her... more

This place has opened for at least more than 10 years and their food has become better each year. My family and I would go for dinner here 2-3 times a week back then. Their dinner dishes are delicious, especially their dinner set which serve with their soup of the day and dessert are literally so good. Although it is a small place but it is tidy and clean, services are great!

I have been coming to Bayview Kitchen since high school and the food has always been great. This small HK style cafe can get very busy on weekends at lunch as it is tiny, you can often find yourself sharing a large table with strangers.

My favourite dish is the minced meat on rice with a raw egg on top.

Over the years, the price of all items on the menu have increased dramatically and I find... more

If you want poorly made Chinese food with bad service then Bayview Kitchen is your place. Took me 5 minutes to find a parking spot on a busy plaza. The waiter looked like she just returned from the funerals. The rice was not cooked properly, and the meat was dry and rubbery - no amount of sauce could help it. The positives? I liked the decor and the service was quick.

I think this place must have gained all their hype prior to Richmond Hill getting any good chinese food. Most of their food ranges from mediocre to just below average. You know their fried rice is sad even just from looking at it. It's also overpriced compared to similar restaurants nearby. The service is never anything special and if it gets busy you'll get forgotten if you're a small group.

Been here so many times, with parents and friends. Food is awesome, staff is friendly, prices are good.

Tried this restaurant with my parents. We ordered half a deep fried chicken, seafood fried rice and stir fried rice noodles with beef. The deep fried chicken was pretty good - kind of like peling duck, but chicken, it was served with pringles which was kind of odd. The fried rice was bland and a bit wet compared to normal white rice. The stir fried noodles were really good, drenched in sauce... more

I was there yesterday and ordered some fried rice and chicken chow mein, and it was delicious. The prices are pretty good and the portions are quite substantial. My only issue was that the servers seem so grumpy all of the time. I don't think a single person that worked there smiled at me once. I'll go here again for the food though.

Legitimately one of my favourite Chinese restaurants to go to. It's super cheap for lunch and they give you a drink as well as soup.
Cheap good Chinese food. Can't get any better than that

I ordered a lunch special fried rice ($7). It was rather salty, oily, and delicious, assuming you like sodium. My dining partner ordered a baked rice with pork chops ($6). The rice was a bit dry, so thank god for the tomato sauce that was artificially reddish in color. The portion was not big, just enough for a single person servicing, but it came with a Hong Kong style milk tea or coffee.

The... more

I come here for lunch occasionally.

Food is fairly cheap and okay. Tastes like your average homemade Chinese food, nothing special. I really like the fact that their lunch comes with milk tea, it's a nice touch! The soup it comes with however, I'm not a fan. Personally would not order the soup specifically because it is heavily salted and has MSG in it.

However, food itself is decent and... more

I bet no Brazil fans wanted to cook or even eat after the heartbreaking game! What a good excuse to get take-out. Passed by here and pulled in. It is a small restaurant and it was kind of quiet. Ordered sweet and sour pork and a half soy sauce chicken. The food were ready in 10 min! They used aluminium containers and the food were still hot when I reached home. The sweet and sour pork was a bit... more

Been going to this restaurant for years now, for both lunch and dinner, and even a couple times for breakfast. Overall, the food is good, price is cheap, large portions and has great variety.

Breakfast menu is usually some toast sandwich with coffee/tea and fairly cheap.

Lunch menu is rice with some dish or fried rice/noodle (and a couple other things). It comes with a choice of 2 different... more

This review is for their dinner menu. I'm not a fan of their breakfast items and would give that 2 stars. This place is the best to go for a cheap, super quick and fulfilling dinner. Their items are always sizzling hot and very flavourful. You can tell that their food is cooked using a really hot wok to maximize on flavour. I also enjoy their desserts, which isn't diluted with water then... more

Good food. Cheap.
Small little place
Only takes cash.

It feels like the last good hole in the wall Chinese restaurant left. The people here are really friendly. Its always packed because it only has 6 tables. I'd eat here over MacDonald's any day. Oh ya, they also give you a free soup for dinner.

The restaurant is very small but when we went we were seated right away and the service was really quick. The waitresses were always around when we needed something. The food is really good, you get a big portion when you order. The fried squid was especially good! Definitely will visit again.

Excellent set dinner menus. Dishes are delicious and comes with soup and dessert. All at a reasonable price. Would eat in everyday if there weren't so many people at night

Great place... the focus is on the food so don't expect great decor. The staple Cantonese dishes are very well executed and you can taste the "wok hey". We like the seafood chow mein... nice and crispy noodles... lemon chicken while not traditional was also wonderful. If you want to eat there get there early or you will be in for wait.

No Nonsense quick food! Food is very good, and the price can't be beat in the area. Lunch specials are fantastic. A little cramped and the place is busy. I like to do takeout to avoid the busy times. 2 thumbs up

The store was rather small, plain and packed with people so my friends and I ordered takeout. People had to share tables to make room.

We ordered set for 4 and it was pretty cheap with huge portions. It was around $20 and easily fed all of us (4 people) with leftovers. The food was good but I didn't like the soup. My friends seemed to like it though.

Overall its a great place to get a cheap... more

Three words: LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Ordered the eggplant noodles and ground beef spaghtti baked with cheese. Both are fantastic! If it wasnt so far from my home, i would go there everyday! Aweeeeesssooommmeeeeee!

Oh one thing i dont like about that place is the milk tea but the food is deinitely worth ever penny because it is cheap too!

Bayview Kitchen is a great value play at Major Mac/Bayview. They're your standard HK-style cafe with noodle and rice dishes. Lunch specials are usually in the $6-7 range and comes with coffee/tea. Portions are very generous with lots of carbs (i.e., rice/noodle) and a decent amount of meat. Most dishes are generally tasty. Service, decor and plating are all very basic. Nothing fancy, but a good... more

Went to Bayview Kitchen for a quick dinner. I've always been curious about this place because it's always packed when I pass by it on my way to eat at Restoran Malaysia. They must be doing something right.

I ordered a club sandwich, a double decker sandwich with lettuce, tomato, ham, egg, and chicken salad. Although you can't really go wrong with a club sandwich, this one pales compared to... more

Not a bad place for a quick eat here, considering that I came here on a whim.

Also, I had French Toast and HK Milk Tea. Toast was alright, but the milk tea seemed to taste a bit diluted.

If you are looking for a quick and very cheap lunch this is the place to go. It is a small restaurant so come early for lunch if you want a seat especially on weekdays as it is very popular with students. Lunch menu is served with a milk tea and has a pretty good selection for such a small place.

I would love to recommend that you come here again but then I'd be out of a seat =P

Bayview Kitchen is a good choice if you want something cheap, quick and fast.

Afternoon tea from 2pm to 5 pm..great for late lunches! My $4.25 Beef Brisket/Wonton Noodles with tea was perfect!

Quick, fast and friendly services!

Closed on Tuesdays!

This place is a basic, no frills home-cooked chinese food restaurant. It's not too big of a restaurant so if it's busy they might ask you to share a table with another group.

My family and I come here when my parents are too lazy to cook and we usually get the set meal for 4 people. Food is good here, pretty yummy and not very msg-y (though I'm really bad at discerning that). We usually get... more

I think this place is a little gem tucked away in a tiny plaza (right beside the massive Restoran Malaysia). Bayview Kitchen serves up good home style Chinese cooking. Their food is consistent and have not yet disappointed me. I love their honey garlic and black pepper chicken wings that come in a hot sizzling pot. Could be one of the best in town!

Inexpensive large portions that come with a drink and soup at lunch. Great place to eat if you don't want to spend too much. Much better than the Bayview Court across the street.

First of all this place is called "Bayview Kitchen". I know this for a fact because I'm holding their take-out flyer as I write this. Second, this is one of those places that you frequent only if you live nearby. I can't imagine anyone making an effort to drive a distance just for this particular Chinese take-out.

Since I do live around the area, and I tend to have cravings for fried rice,... more

This place is a hidden gem. It looks small and dinky from the outside and that's what it is - small and dinky. But the food is very good. If you want to go for dinner on the weekend, you'll probably have to go a little earlier because there are only 5 or six tables inside and not many large ones either. Their prices are very reasonable and the service is pretty good. Their dishes taste like... more
