Oriental Gourmet - Markham

This restaurant focuses on serving Chiu Chow Chinese cuisine.

The food was okay, but the service was disappointing and ruined the experience for me.

Lunch and afternoon tea! This restaurant offers affordable Chiu Chow fare with value-packed combos featuring a variety of delicious goodies.

That was our first visit. We ordered three items; pan fried chive dumplings, noodle and duck.The duck is great. Whereas both the noodle and the dumplings were so and so.The service is slow and the waitresses were smileless.The environment is good for a quick fix for your stomach. It was noisy. Hence, It is not a place to hangout with friends for the evenings.We might go back to try out other dishes. They do offer value deals and as well as expensive items like crabs and shark fin soup, but I would not host a dinner party for family or friends if the service is poor and the environment is not that great.

This has been one of the worst restaurants I have ever experienced for a long time. The restaurant has no regard for health and safety. The tables and seats were jammed together. Our supposedly round table could only be opened up to 3/4 due to limited space. The servers needed to carry hot dishes and soups right above customers' head to pass through. I have high concern about the potential fire hazards in the restaurant. One server might have had her hand wet or dirty and was simply wiping it using our table cloth. In terms of the food, they were okay and nothing was surprisingly good. There are many other Chinese restaurants that could have delivered the same food quality. For the sake of family health and safety, it is not worth the risk and we will not return.
