My family’s been going to the Congee Queen (near the Shops At Don Mills) for >10 years. It’s our go-to place for tasty, moderately-priced entres. When one chooses to sit down, it’s an excellent (if sometimes cramped) experience… dishes like the spicy turnip patty are crunchy and spicy on the outside & fine textured on the inside. The location’s light-wood paneling reminds me of som Richmond (B.C.) eateries. Congee Queen also does take-out. They’re wise about how it’s packaged - the wontons are kept separated from the broth. The chow meins have their crispy noodles separated from the saucy coating. For prompt pick up, call ahead and place your order.

We ordered the Pork Hock Lo Mein and also the Garoupa with Bitter Melon Rice from their lunch combo. I liked that their lunch combo included a soup and a small plate of steamed vegetables too (also a spring roll). The size of garoupa fish fillets was substantial and very tasty.

I find Congee Queen to be consistently good across the GTA and this Markham location is no exception. This is a popular spot, particularly amongst Hong Kong folks, to grab some Cantonese comfort food.

Service was incredibly fast, even with a full restaurant. After ordering, our food started coming out in less than 10 minutes. Staff were super accommodating. We got switched to a booth on request despite their dinner rush. I'm not sure how good the service is if you are a non-Chinese party though.

Like most Cantonese restaurants, the atmosphere was lively and chattery. However, it's not difficult at all to have a decent conversation using a fairly normal decibel level. Overall, this is a great place to get your congee (and other Cantonese food) fix.

Tip: you can always request for reduced salt and/or oil in most dishes when you order if you'd prefer (like me).

I went to congee queen for the first time last night. It was also my first time trying congee. We ordered the shrimp and scallops congee and ginger beef lo mein. The congee was a large portion and more that enough for sharing. There weren't many scallops in it. I enjoyed the congee once I added some chilli to it as i find its a bit bland. Its definately a healthy option. They have a large menu with many congee options at good prices. The lo mein was a bit disappointing for me. I did not like the beef and it was once again a bit bland. I ended up using chilli oil to add flavour to all of the dishes. Service was slow but ever friendly staff. I would return to try something else on their menu.

We pulled over here because of the branding the signage we saw from the road. Being a resident in the area I have no shortage of Asian and Chinese food places to go for dinner and I've reviewed quite a few of them here on zomato. Yet it's worth mentioning that this place has a nicer atmosphere and is more upscale Vs the "greasy spoon" setting a lot of the other restaurants feel like. It's not fine dining but it does lend itself well to a weekend dinner or dinner with family.

Nice size restaurant and typically full of people to give it a nice atmosphere.

Very expansive menu that is moderately priced. It's not the cheapest of the cheap, but there is still good value. Expect to pay between $10-$15 per main course dish on average with the bigger or finer dishes costing you more.

Good selection of all Staples dishes and a good chefs recommendation menu that has it all in a very hearty portion. Fried turnips are always a great starter along with any of the salads. I always tend to get a meat and veggies dish but I've tried 6 different ones and all good. Lots of noodle selection and of course congee, the soup it was named after.

I'd go here if I was shopping across the street at markville mall and wanted a place to dine at.

My parents are a huge fan of thos place. I will always take them there on my days off and I've come to also realize that they have pretty good food. Their portion is quite large, perfect to share with family and friends. Value is definitely there and they are clean, fast, and delicious. I'm personally quite sick of Chinese food but it still doesn't change the fact that their food is good.

Consistency. This is a great place to go to for some Chinese food for a decent price. They are always consistent and things will never go wrong.

Best to ask them to not add msg to the dishes, then you can avoid a msg attack. Place is always packed on weekends, so go early or expect to wait.

Return visit. Place has recently expanded in size but the place still holds its quality. Ordered shredded pork and preserved egg congee, deep fried lobster/crab claw and chicken stirred lettuce wraps. It's a simple meal done right. Price is a little higher than most, service could be better but IMHO it's still worth going. 80%

Very delicious Chinese cuisine, the duck was delicious and the Congee definitely healed the soul. Food service was also really fast. although we were right next to the door so the food got cold very quickly which ruined the experience a little. Would definitely love to come back and try other dishes!

They have a afternoon tea special between 3-5pm which was great, especially for people who eat lunch really late like myself or people or eat dinner early enough to enjoy the special. The portions are surprisingly big based on their price. The bitter melon rib with rice cost around 12, the beef noodle cost 10 and the congee was only 8.50. The flavours were decent, a bit lacking for me personally but still tastes good. While the beef was really tender, the bitter melon was a bit undercooked and too crunchy for me. The food is also served with a drink each and they offer drinks such as bubble tea and red bean ice cream without an extra cost. That is amazing since most restaurant would charge an extra fee for these types of drinks.

Been to this location many times. It is always busy, and the BBQ meat selections sell out early in the evening...so get there early. Typical Congee Queen food quality...you won't be disappointed. Restaurant closes at 10 pm now post-covid.

This location is preferred over the Richmond Hill branch. Their food seems more fresh. Service is average. Waiting area is more spacious and has lots of chairs to cater people waiting for a table.

At first I was a bit skeptical of the outside and the name as I was craving dimsum and not congee, however, this place completely surprised me! My friend was craving deep fried squid tentacles and I've had quite a few I'm my life, but these were the best I've ever had. Chow mein was crispy, salty and spicy squid was delicious, and I loved the shrimp wontons. Definitely making this a regular!

Stopped by for a late night snack, hit the spot right on, with the hot Wonton noodle soup, deep fried chicken wings and fresh Chinese greens. The food quality was consistent with all the other Congee Queen locations, nice big modern venue, efficient & fast service.
