Extremely good wonton with unbeatable prices. One of the classic hidden gems restaurants in the area, been in business for long time.
Renovated not too long ago.
Self serve tea and hot water, Cash only.
Found in the Jubilee Plaza on Highway 7 and West Beaver Creek is the two decade old Hong Kong style noodle shop, Jim Chai Kee Noodle Shop. They have attracted many oriental clientele from the surrounding diverse neighbourhoods. I was introduced to this eatery through a family friend twenty years ago. Whenever I have a crave, you will find me slurping on the noodles from this noodle house.
Jim Chai Kee is located in the same plaza with Golden Court Abalone restaurant and Yu Seafood. Parking in this plaza was really bad (especially at lunch time)
Restaurant was medium size with simple tables and chairs. The style was very laid back and relaxed with no decor themes at all. Do not expect much for presentation! Service: The menu was very simple with graphics of the food options. Drinks (water, tea) were obtained by yourself at the end of the restaurant. The servers were quick to pick up orders. To pay for the menu, you had to go up to the front desk of the restaurant.
Awesome Wontons here! Not just simple and affordable, but the quality of the product is great. Their Wontons are packed full of shrimp and is complimented very well by their homemade chili oil (available for purchase).
A great little place for bowls of noodle-y Hong Kong comfort food. The options are simple — for noodles you pick from egg noodles, rice noodles, or vermicelli; for toppings you pick from wontons, beef slices, or "fishballs". This place is famous for their hand-made wontons stuffed with huge, super-fresh prawns. Be sure to try it! Don't forget to order a dish of "choi" (veggies). The food comes out at lightning speed (avg wait time 2 min); it's just enough time for you to visit the back and pour yourself a cup of hot tea. My parents love this place because with its low prices, quick service, and simple ingredients, it reminds them so much of classic Hong Kong noodle shops.
Simplistic and tasty, this place gives you your quick noodle fix. Every time I go I get the wonton noodles with sliced beef. Every thing is cheap and comes out quickly so you can have a bite for $10 in under 15 minutes.
From my last month of reviews, it's clear I like my soup noodles. I could slurp down a bowl for every meal and still crave more. Lucky for me, The Hubby almost feels the same. Either way, he's been indulging me as I drag him to all the GTA noodle shops. Next up, Jim Chai Kee near Highway 7 and Leslie.
Talk about simplicity in a bowl! Sometimes that is all you need for a delicious and satisfying meal... Their menu is plain and simple as well, making them focus on their specialty more and for a super fast meal for those in a rush. I always order the plain egg noodle with wonton and a side of veggie. You can never go wrong! Just remember that they are closed Wednesdays... we learned it the hard way!
Wonton Shrimp and Beef Egg Noodle. Wonderful
Great place great wanton soup. Very hood broth and ample shrimp wantons. You know you're in the right place when you here little to no English. Prices cannot be beat. You need to try you'll love it.it'd
Roma from T.O. Temptations out for now.noe
The definition of quick, down, and dirty. Waitress at your table before you sit down, food out in 3 minutes. But all for $6 max per person and plenty of food. Small menu and really tasty. Not a destination place but if you're in the area and looking for something quick...it's a great option.
Famous for just their wonton noodles... But that's pretty much all they sell LOL
It’s simply a bowl of noodles with three toppings to choose from. That’s what Jim Chai Kee Noodle is all about. This restaurant started way back in 1994 so it has a lot of history, loyal customers, a solid fan base, and lots of bowls of wonton noodles served over these 20 years!
Jim Chai Kee is everything a good wonton noodle place should be, quick, affordable, delicious, and absolutely no frills. Highly highly recommended! :)
Awesome cheap food. Ridiculously big wontons and fish balls. $5 for noodles and 3-4 wontons and/or fish balls. Sounds like a small amount of food, but was super full afterwards. They make their own noodle, wontons, and fish balls. The noodles are chewy; just perfect. The wontons are loaded with shrimps. And the fish balls do not have the "fishy" taste or smell to them.
The soup has a distinct shrimp flavor; very sweet.
The place is very homey; reminds me of a family restaurant in HK. Service is super fast and efficient. We were in, seated, ordered, ate, paid and out in less than 15 minutes. That's fast!
The price is really reasonable. $5.5 per bowl of noodles. The super big wanton is really good. They hv a whole shrimp inside which is "crunchy". One should try it and get this super good experience. Big guy may find the noodle portion small, but you can add noodles. ???? they don't have many choices. besides wanton, they have dumplings, beef and fresh made fish balls. You can even bought the fresh made wanton and dumplings and cook it at home! $1 each!
Food quality is still as delicious as ever. Definitely my go-to comfort food.
The price is insane, but understandable considering the last 1.5 yrs. Literally each item is $12. I understand that this just pushes you to get a noodle with topping to get your money's worth.
You prepay for your food in the back now. You take a seat at any unoccupied table and wait for your name to be called. You pick up your food at the counter where you ordered. Food is served in plastic containers with disposable chopsticks/spoons.
You can dispense your own condiments into small plastic containers and bring it to your table. (Caution: the hot sauce is really spicy! But very yummy).
Tea and hot water is still self serve in the back.
When done eating, you clear your own table and tray. There is a cart and large garbage can where you can throw garbage and leave your tray.
While eating, I did notice a staff member coming out to sanitize the used tables.
I see a lot of negative comments about the hospitality aspect of this establishment. I used to think that they were loud/rude, until I realized that that's just what they sound like normally, even when happy/excited, their tone is the same. They have always been nice to me, my family and my friends.
I highly recommend this restaurant, but be mindful of the price increase. Always try the hot sauce.
Menu is simple to understand, all noodles are $12. Add $2 for dine veggie.
If you dine in, they will check your vaccine record.
Self serve style. There’s hot water station and sauce station.
Food came hot and good portion. I ordered wonton only abs it came with 8 golf ball sized wonton.
They also have raw wonton for sell at $18 a dozen. I find it I expensive as cooked version is $12 for 8 piece.
No music at all and the restaurant has a strange vibe when it’s dead silence.
One of Richmond hill's finest takeout spots. Despite how quick the service is (call them and they'll prepare your order in 10 mins for takeout), the wontons, noodles and broth always taste unbelievably fresh and flavorful. The portions are sizable. Pictured is the delicious shrimp and beef wonton lo-mein soup. Give it a shot if you haven't tried it out. You won't regret it.
Best wonton soup i always pass by every time by years go Toronto.
