Kwong's — Restaurant in Riverview

First we heard of this restaurant was through the "Ask Moncton" Facebook group ("best Chinese restaurant" was asked). My lovely wife, Pat, absolutely loves Chinese food (I tolerate it). Both of us were pleased with our experience. My only disappointment was learning that they do not currently have a dine in setup. All food is takeout and currently well suited for it. While awaiting our meal (suggest phoning order in ahead of time), I walked around their wait area. I could see how little dining area there was at one time. Plenty of current seating for those waiting on takeout food. I was impressed with their current letters of praise framed upon their table (I recommend hanging these on one of their walls). Food was served hot and retained its heat for the 17 minute drive home. Both Pat and I enjoyed the Canadianized Chinese food. My only comment on the food is that I'd ask for more of the dipping sauce used for the chicken balls ordered. There was more than enough of the sauce for the chicken balls alone but I also like that sauce on my rice. When ordering next time I'll be sure to ask for more of that sauce. Definately worth it, for me, even if there's a little extra charge for a small container of the sauce (which I understand). Both Pat and I look forward to dining here again. Be nice, on a warm day, to sit along the riverside across the road, picnic style. Even greater to be able to dine inside...

We decided to try out Kwong’s (based on google reviews) and they did not disappoint. The food we received was well packaged and beautifully presented, which is so surprising for take out. We ordered just a few items, including the super special combo which I especially want to comment on - I am a big eater and can pack it away, and this special had so much food, it made too full meals that stuffed me to the gills. The beef and broccoli had the best tasting and most tender beef I have ever had in a Chinese beef and broccoli dish - I wish I had ordered more of it. The honey garlic spare ribs were fall off the bone tender and just deliciously soft. The chicken balls had a dough in them that I couldn’t quite place the flavor of, but the second time I ate the them it reminded me of doughnuts - just a hint of sweet in the dough. Different but good. We did order more of those because kids love chicken balls. We also tried the Cantonese Chow Mein - wow, that was packed full of meat and veggies. There is no skimping here, definitely worth the money. I can see why this place is so busy. I look forward to my next Super Special with an extra order of Beef & Broccoli, and maybe some Almond Chicken Guy Ding and some Szechuan...

Super special with beef broccoli:

The rice was fried to perfection with ample soya sauce making it nice and dark and rich with an acceptable amount of fine diced chicken. Beef and broccoli was also delicious. The beef slices being moderate in thickness but still very tender with another rich flavour marinated throughout while the broccoli still maintained a light crunch. The spare ribs were also fall off the bone and contained little cartilage. The honey garlic sauce was mixed evenly throughout making them not too saucy. The chicken balls were on a whole new level. With ample chicken content they were nice and firm with a perfect batter that did not fall apart when taking a bite into the chicken ball itself. The sweet and sour sauce contained a nice tanginess to it making it a delicious dipping experience. Finally, the egg roll fried to perfection with a unique spicy flavour I have yet to experience elsewhere! The only improvement for this dining experience would be to have a fortune cookie included as part of the special! Overall, Kwong’s Restaurant scores a...
