Celadon House — Restaurant in Oakville

Good food but.... something is seriously off about the treatment we receive. The husband is usually fine but the wife is missing the point about treating all customers (the people who pay to support your business ) the same. She is abrupt, unfriendly, and at times a little rude.

On our fourth trip to the restaurant we asked for extra napkins. A table near ours had asked for the same thing. She delivered the napkin to that table of four but the extra one meant for us was dropped on the floor... she picked it up walked over to Us reassembled the napkin and placed it on our table.

Another time, we walked in She and her husband looked up.... no smile ... no friendly greeting welcoming us back...she stands up and turns her back to us saying something to her husband... he looks at us and then looks back at his computer. She walks over with two menus directs us to a table and meekly... barely audible says "here you go" placing the menus on the table. Immediately we picked up on her tone.

For Each of the five trips to this restaurant we were never difficult, demanding or unreasonable customers to deal with. We paid our bill each time ..... they didn't give us free meals ..... all we hoped for was a modicum of politeness and appreciation that we came back. They really didn't want us there... I get the tone... so I won't go back.

Oh... and my impression is that if you're white or Asian you will get excellent treatment... if you're not .... you'll get the...

A long time friend and I decided to meet up and try the food out at the Celadon House. Celadon House has a very welcoming and calm atmosphere. My friend had already gotten us a spot by the window by the time I got there so there was no need for any waiting.

The service was great.

I got the spicy Tom Yum soup since it reminds me of back home (Malaysia). The Tom Yum soup comes with the options of either chicken or shrimp however I requested for a vegetarian option and they were able to swap those for mushroom instead. My friend got the Pad Thai with Tofu.

I got the appetizer sized Tom Yum soup since I did not want too much to eat, but the potion size was much bigger than I had expected, and to my friend's surprise arrived a huge bowl of Pad Thai. The service sizes are huge, so that's one thing to keep in mind before ordering as one order can feed more than 1 person. The Tom Yum soup met my expectations and did not disappoint. It was delicious, spicy, with a delicate tangy/sour flavour, and the mushrooms were great as well. My friend enjoyed her Pad Thai as well, however did not finish due to the large portion size.

Will definitely recommend to check this place out if you're...

This family-run restaurant is an absolute GEM, whether you’re grabbing takeout or dining in! I’ve done both, and every experience has been fantastic. The food? Unreal. I ordered the House Wonton Soup, Crispy Sichuan Beef, and Yang Chow Fried Rice, and each dish was a masterpiece. The wonton soup was like a warm, savory hug—perfectly tender wontons in a broth that tasted like it had been simmering for hours. The Sichuan beef was a flavor bomb—crispy, spicy, and utterly addictive. And the fried rice? Packed with fresh veggies, fluffy eggs, and that irresistible smoky wok flavor.

When I dined in, the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, with a touch of family charm that made me feel right at home. For takeout, the food was packed with care—still piping hot and delicious when I got home. The family behind this place pours their heart into every dish, and it shows. Generous portions, reasonable prices, and the kindest staff you’ll ever meet.

Whether you’re craving a quick takeout meal or a relaxing dine-in experience, this spot delivers on every level. I’m officially obsessed and will be back again and again. Do yourself a favor and try it—you...
