On the search for Sunday eats, we found ourselves at On On Wonton House located at 5640 Kingsway. I’m fairly certain that this used to be the location of Mr Ho’s Wonton House (which has since moved a bit further east on Kingsway a number of years ago). We were a bit hesitant since this place was dead at 11am but figured we might as well try them out.
Ordered On On based on reviews here on Yelp and have had failed experiences in New West. We ordered take out through Skip The Dishes, it was clearly made very fast at the restaurant and arrived very hot and fresh. We had Szechuan Chicken, Szechuan Green Beans and Beef Hor Fun/Wide Rice Noodles. The noodles were my only disappointment as they were clumpy and over sauced. The Szechuan dishes were excellent, full of spicy peppers and lots of flavour. Certainly this is more of a “western style” place but quite frankly that’s what I usually crave :)
• always a busy place to go but they seat you right away
• good soups, no msg; perfect for a
cold, rainy weather
• inexpensive, bring cash if possible
• your typical wonton place, nothing really different from other Chinese restaurants
• I would come back again, but nowadays there's a lot of other places to try
Came here on a slightly chilly evening on Sep 12, 2017. I'm staying in a hotel nearby and enjoyed a nice little walk. Was in the mood for something small and comforting so I ordered a bowl of won ton soup. Menu is pretty standard... lots of options for either Western Chinese food lovers or classic congee kind of food lovers.
Food came out quickly. Noodles were traditional with good chew. Received 4 won tons in my bowl. Soup was good.
Cheap enough meal: $6.25 including tax.
Those white folks who were complaining that they weren't getting service: there were three other tables of white people and they seemed to get good service. So I don't know if you caught them on an off day or you did something to offend the staff. Would definitely come back here to try more of what's on the menu. One complaint: don't look at the window sills. Quite a few dead bugs laying there (mostly fruit flies).
Really impressed with this place! Food is really good, portions are generous and prices are fare. I've ordered from here several times and the food is always consistent and good. I recently ordered in and the gave me a complementary mango pudding! Very good!
Great food, I would have rated higher if service was better. I went there with a few friends a few weeks ago and we enjoyed the meal, however, the waitress kept staring at us the whole time, got uncomfortable at certain point. She didn't pay attention to ask us abt the food, if we were pleased or if we wanted anything else. My friends do not wish to go there. I still order take out there, love the food!
Arrived back in Vancouver the other day from a small town. Had a panging for chinese food and stopped off to meet some friends on the way back home.
OnOn was the pitstop and what a relief to get some good food to chow down on.
Curried Vermichelli, beef hor fun, vegetables and a few other items and few beers.
Good food in a nice environment where we could hear ourselves talk, eat & drink and enjoy the company. Service was good and even got to talk to the boss man - nice fella.
Dont know him that well, but his food is good and prices are reasonable.
Will be back soon for regular lunches once the summer is over and back to the old grind.
老牌唐餐館的午市套餐
評語：每日午餐精選套餐價錢親民，份量也大
在北美洲包括美國以及加拿大新一代的華人稱為中菜館，而老一輩的早期華人移民多稱之為唐餐館，而當年老華僑所謂的“雜碎Chop Suey”這個名稱就是指盛行於北美地區的美式中菜，至今已有一百多年的歷史，傳聞是1896年中國政治人物李鴻章遊歷美國時，由李的私人廚師帶入當地，頗受歡迎而在當地流行，成為當地人一道喜歡的美食。而本地唐餐館的美式中菜主要有咕嚕肉、芙蓉炒蛋、楊州炒飯炒麵、酸辣湯等等，都是老外們(指洋人)至愛的唐餐。「安安食家」就是這種美式中菜唐餐館的表表者，大部份客人看來都是老外。
「安安食家」在本拿比現址已經營了一段很長時間，於一年多前進行了全面大裝修，所有室內傢具檯椅也重新更換，整個餐房都煥然一新，地方也擴大足夠容納百人。老板非常關顧老外顧客，餐牌用上圖文并茂。為了營造中國特式，老板用了隻大熊貓做招牌，令人聯想到那隻大熊貓安安。
每日午餐精選套餐共20款一律$8.50 (11am-4pm 只供堂食) 隨餐附送酸辣湯/雞蓉粟米羹/或老火例湯、白飯)
左宗棠雞午市套餐 $8.50 ~ 這道菜其實就是咕嚕雞，甜甜酸酸非常下飯。例湯除了酸辣湯和雞蓉粟米羹外還會為華人食客提供老火例湯，不過我還是選要酸辣湯 (3.5/5分)
I like this restaurant because it has good food for a reasonable price. The first time I went here, it was for a birthday party but I decided to go back with my own family because we enjoyed our first experience. I think we would go there more regularly if they served dim sum. However, they still have really good Chinese food. My favourites are the seafood chow mien, the chicken and corn soup, and the mango pudding. I love how the mango pudding comes in cute shapes! The only thing that was negative about this place is the service. It takes a while for your food to come, but I would still recommend you eat here.
Not sure why the reviews here are so low. I've been to this restaurant twice for lunch and the food was great. It wasn't too greasy or salty, portions are well priced and it is classic Cantonese food. If I lived closer I would come here more often.
