I really enjoyed Wonton Chai Noodle! I entered to a fully occupied restaurant, and so was directed to a table with another two people occupying it. I asked if it was possible that we could get a private table, which was obliged but with a 5-10 minute wait. The menu is simple and direct. My intention for coming here was for the toppings (wontons, dumplings, dace fish balls). So I ordered one serving of the wontons in broth and another of fish balls in broth (no noodles). My brother, being vegetarian didn't have a lot of options unfortunately, so he got the plain noodle soup (although we were pretty sure the broth was not vegetarian, but he isn't too picky). The food literally arrived within one minute! Usually I would never trust a restaurant that serves food that quick, but here, they have an open kitchen where you can see them boiling fresh wontons right then and there, so I know that I can trust them. The broth was piping hot and delicious...but loaded with salt! The fish balls (5 in one serving) were gigantic ! But the highlight of them all were the wontons. 5 gigantic wontons were served and were incredibly flavourful. I devoured both the bowls and was stuffed. My brother said the enjoyed the noodles, but I don't think he was "wowed" by them. I will surely be going back and this time trying the dumplings. I do regret that I chose to try this place out when winter has come to an end. This meal would be ideal during the cold winter months. My only complaint was that, since they only take cash, I feel that they should at least have an ATM machine. Nevertheless, the price makes up for it (around...
Read moreWhen it comes to wonton noodles in Mississauga this is the spot I enjoy the most. They are located on the corner of Burnhamthorpe and Creditview in the same plaza a No Frills. It is a fairly small restaurant that seats approximately 50 people but their turn over is super fast. Most of the time you would need to share tables with other patrons unless you opt to wait for a table that aren't designated sharing tables, this is very common practice in Hong Kong.
Their service is not bad fairly quick when it comes to asking for extra items such as napkins and bowls. Food quality is great love the size and amount of ingredients they put into their wonton's and dumplings, the size of these are like the size of a golf ball which is fairly big. The wonton's dumplings and fish balls are all fresh and made in-store, these items can also be bought raw or cooked to go. The food comes out almost immediately after ordering from the server so even when there's a line up during peak hours the turn around is fairly quick maybe a 15 to 20 minute wait providing you are willing to share a table with other people.
Very easy to order just choose your noodles in soup or dry ( Lo Mein ), choose one, two, or three toppings and you're done. You can even have just the toppings and no noodles if that's what you fancy. There are also blanched veggies with oyster sauce and deep fried fish skin for sides.
Best place for wonton's in Mississauga and for around $10 a bowl what more can I ask for? That's cheaper than going to a a fast food burger...
Read moreThey have made their name making wonton noodles. There's not much on the menu except the various combos that you can make with different noodles and toppings which keeps it simple and easier to decide than compared to other Chinese noodle places where you see 100s of items listed.
I had the wonton and beef brisket noodle soup and my daughter had the wonton noodle soup.
Mine came with 3 wontons and some beef brisket for $1 more and hers came with 4 wontons. The wontons were massive and the shrimps were crunchy and well flavoured. The beef brisket included a couple of pieces of tendon and were also very tasty. What distinguishes a good noodle vs a crappy one (like when I make it at home) is the noodle is crunchy. The noodle here was crunchy. Perfectly done.
I would definitely return.
Note, the restaurant is small and if you are a couple, you might end up sharing a table with another couple and slurping noodle with total strangers, Hong Kong style. However if you are shy or have never done it before, it could be an issue but the quality of the food is well worth it.
$6.50 for one item with noodle soup, add $1 more if you want 2 items like I did and another $1 for...
