Wow, I'm impressed. Just ordered from here for the first time and the food is AMAZING. I got delivery and they arrived in about 30 minutes which was nice. I ordered the spring rolls, cashew chicken, beef and broccoli and fried rice (don't judge me, I like having leftovers). The cashew chicken is most likely the best I've ever had and the rest is also phenomenal.
All that came out to around $35...

Worst Ma-po tofu ever. The sauce was the same sauce they used for Hunanan Beef...ugh. They just threw in some preserved soya beans and didn't even bother cutting up the tofu.
This my #1 choice to order Chinese food great tasting food and fair prices.. I totally am in love with this place very quick delivery too!
As I prepare to leave the Cabbagetown area, I want to upgrade my rating.
This place has over time become more and more of a regular occurrence for me to the point where sometimes I get cravings for their food.
Standard staples of 4 star quality include:
-General Tso Chicken
-Singapore Noodles
-Cashew Chicken
-Chicken Soo Guy
-Egg Rolls
-Wor Tip
I'll miss you, China Gourmet.

I ordered from them to have food delivered, and they said under an hour. An hour went by...no food. I called after about an hour and ten minutes and was told the driver was almost there. An hour and a half go by and still no food. I call again and say where is my food? They said "it's on it's way", and I said "that's what you told me twenty minutes ago, it's been an hour and a half since I... more
I work in the area and felt like Chinese food for lunch and this one was the closest. I called to place an order for pick up and it was ready 10 minutes later. I like to judge a Chinese food restaurant on a few main staple items. This includes General Tso's Chicken, Chicken Balls, Ginger Beef, Chili Chicken, and Lemon Chicken. For my first order I went with the first three and I was not... more
Cures my cravings for Chinese food. Although sometimes inconsistent, it's still delicious. Hot and sour soup is always good. Half of the time, their General Tso's chicken is the best I've ever had, the other half it's still abt 3 stars. I also enjoy the Szechuan chicken. As far as the specials go, I enjoyed combo #5 and a friend really liked the sweet and sour chicken balls. I just don't swing... more
For the area this is a great Chinese choice. The general tao was delicious. The peanut chicken was just average. Portions are large and the food is fresh. Iys a great choice for fast convenient delivery.
I've been ordering Takeout here for a few years. The food is good and the quality good too. Delivery times are reasonable. However, my biggest compliant from this place is that some of their dishes are not consistent in terms of how they are prepared. For example, depending on the chef/cook the Shanghai noodles might be spicy, or it might not be. Order Beef and Broccoli and it might be Beef and... more
If you're craving some greasy Chinese takeout, it doesn't get any better than China Gourmet. They've got a massive menu, but I pretty much always order the Cantonese Chow Mein or Fresh Vegetable Lo Mein with Sweet and Sour Chicken Balls and spring rolls. For $20 and free delivery, you really can't beat the amount of food, more than enough for 2 people with leftovers. Everything is super yummy;... more
I've eaten there twice over the past two months. Their prices are very fair and portions are large. Their service is also quick.
They do offer delivery but I've never tried them.
Amazing Delivery for two. I've been ordering the dinner for two for over 3 years now, and I haven't found a better place yet.
I usually sub the chop suey for lo mein - it's a couple bucks more but totally worth it. The portion sizes are great, they usually can't even close the box for the chicken balls and wings!
If you're a fan of fresh canadian chinese food and you're looking for a solid...

Hot and sour soup is among the best I've had, if a little too vinegary. I've only ordered delivery, but have been blown away by the size of the portion. A $6 rice dish came in a standard 10-inch Styrofoam container, but packed to the roof! Had to be careful when opening it, because there was so much, it poured out. Very tasty dish with shrimp and pork. The chili chicken was fantastic. This is... more
I like certain dishes when I go out for Chinese food (or order in), and those dishes are what I use to compare the different restaurants. While I can't speak for everyone's tastes, when I think of Chinese food I am thinking more meat and rice than the vegetable side of things. My partner and I were buying some cat food across the street and when we saw China Gourmet we were instantly in the... more
