WHAT?!? How have I not reviewed this place I could have sworn I did but that’s ok I shall launch into this review now with all the more exuberance
Located in Renforth plaza on Renforth dr and Rathburn rd nestled away with the existing shops, many of which have been there since I was a child. The restaurant is more of a takeout location with only 2 or 3 tables and an extremely barren design concept but what they lack in aesthetic they more then make up for with delicious food and good service.
I have been ordering here for years and have always been a fan of this place so that’s why I am extra confused how I managed to not review them?! For the most part I mainly ordered takeout and they were always very accommodating when I was having buzzer issues so any delivery people would always have to call and many did not like this. I guess I can understand how it might make a new delivery guy a little nervous to have to wait downstairs in the lobby for money but come on after a dozen times you’d think they would eventually figure it out. But I never had problems with Honk Kong Gourmet, their drivers were calm, relaxed and very polite when they buzzed and were always super appreciative of any tip I gave them, mind you I always gave them a decent tip because I appreciated their great service but they were always super friendly and nice people that clearly went the extra mile. One time my elevator was out and instead of waiting downstairs they literally took the stairs all the way up and it was a fair few floors so these guys and gals always impressed me.
I tend to be a stickler for consistency and I have never really been disappointed with the food here, the quality is always on par and the price especially for the quantity is very affordable. Some of my favorite dishes here include:
Spicy Peanut chicken: The chicken is all white meat, breaded and deep fried to golden perfection and you get a heaping pile of it with a side of spicy peanut sauce that is savory with a tad bit of heat.
Cantonese Chow Mein w/​crispy noodles: Everyone knows this dish but I find this place is one of the best I have tried as the noodles stay crispy even after delivered and the ingredients are always fresh and tasty.
Szechuan Mix Vegetables: This dish you can get as spicy as you like, I ask for a mild spice because not everyone in my family likes the heat but the mild spice still gives it a bit of a kick and loads of flavor.
I am also a fan of their combo plates and dinners, given they are the traditional selection of basic dishes but they are very affordable and come in a fair size portion too. The plate dinners are under $ 10 a plate… around $ 6.50 I believe and that is a very affordable option and of course the food is delish so its well worth it.
If your craving some delicious Chinese food and your in the neighborhood do stop by and check these guys out you will not be disappointed.

My husband and I know our Chinese Take-​out. Yep, this place delivered on taste, portions, price and service. We will be back!

Found this place searching for cantonese style food in the etobicoke/​mississauga area and ordered off the just-​eat menu for 6, very nice selection and all the dishes delicious and well prepared. Family is very friendly and it’s a cute establishment. Happy to have found them.

This place is basically a take out or delivery kind of place. There are like maybe 2 tables in the place and I’ve never eaten in but if you do it’s probably still served to you in the take out container.
I go to this restaurant for take out maybe 2 to 3 times a month mostly during the week. I either get a combo like #4 or #6 with or without a noodle dish like pad thai, beef w rice noodles, cantonese chow mein etc.
Their combos are HUGE. Normally if I order 2 dishes it takes me alone maybe 3 meals to consume all of it and that will run something like 15 to 18 bucks for 2 dishes. The food is very affordable for the portions that you get. A single combo like #6 is basically a meal 2 adults can split. It’s sweet and sour chicken (not chicken balls, but chicken), mixed vegetables with beef slices, fried rice and an eggroll. This combo after tax is not even 8 dollars.
Like I said it’s affordable and you get a lot of food for the money. Now the food is average to above average as far as quality but the portions more than make up for it. I’ve been going Golden Wok just down the street since I was a child but I find myself going to HKG more often now probably because I can eat dinner and have enough for lunch the next day and it’s a good value.
Edit: 12/​04/​2014. Upgraded to 4 stars from previously 3. I didn’t want to write an update because the last one I updated all my photos stopped being associated with my review. Reason for upgrade to 4 stars is because the quality is good and the consistency for quantity has not changed. I’ve been going here regularly now for some time and they are the best Chinese place in the area hands down.

Had take out today. The portions are huge and food quality is average. The specials with pictures are facing outside but would also be helpful for the to be on the inside as well. I would go back.

This is your typical Chinese take-​out restaurant. Fast, cheap and huge portions. I choose to come here because 1) I’m addicted to their chili chicken and 2) the staff is very nice and polite which is not something you see often at Chinese places

I ordered the BBQ spare ribs, crispy salt and pepper shrimps, and an egg roll for delivery.
1. Additional menu descriptions would be helpful.
2. I placed my order through
, they estimated 40 mins — it took 1 hr 10 mins.
3. The «crispy» shrimp arrived soggy — a larger vent hole in the container could help. I was hoping for a crispy shell on shrimp, but alas, no shell :(The flavour was reasonably good — the menu says they’re spicy — I say not.
4. The egg roll was crispy, typical, adequate.
5. The BBQ spare ribs (long) — were very saucy, probably to hide the fact that many of the ribs were hard, burnt and inedible.
I wouldn’t order from them again.
