Cozy, old-school Chinese spot with late hours making sizable Cantonese plates to eat in or take out.

Everything was quite tasty except for Chinese mushrooms dish and spicy chicken. These dishes could’ve been better. We expected to have a chicken that was nicely deep fried with sauces instead it was some stir fried dish. It contained too many green peppers mixed with chicken. Besides the mushroom dish and chicken both tasted identical with oyster sauce
We really liked soup, fried rice and the hot pot dish. Their dishes in general wasn’t too overpowering in my personal opinion. Hot and sour soup was flavourful and mild. Don’t worry there’s was only little heat. I could definitely use chilly or more spice. Price was reasonable. We wouldn’t recommend mushroom dish (#24) and spicy chicken (#91). Food tasted okay overall NOT amazing.
Highly recommend bringing your own food containers. We ended up taking leftovers home. Washroom was clean. **Credit card and cash are accepted!**
Crab, calamari, 2 rice dishes, Crispy chicken, chow mein, and pan fried rice noodles. Every dish was excellent and flavourful.
Sorry I didn’t take any pictures as we devoured the food when it arrived.
Family run business. Staff were very attentive to our needs and cleared full plates of bones and shell off our table and replaced with clean ones.
I will definitely come back here for dinner.
Came back 2day. Ordered a bunch of plates. I was disappointed with the chicken dish as the chicken was not fresh. Their was a tint of yellow on the meat which means that the chicken is old. The female waitress was very nice n helpful. The male waiter didn’t smile at all…maybe needs a vaca…..eventhough I left them a large 18% tip for 2days mediocre food.
Rude and demanding forceful behaviour by front cashier lady to tip and yelling in front of others to embarrass and trying to intimidate , owner must look into this issue and stop this behaviour from staff. There are many other good places to dine. Will never give my money to rude and ignorant staff. Behaviour must be reported and inspection services must be carried out to check food quality and service.
Undeterred, I saddled up to one of the tables and ordered the Tai Pan Don Chow Mein ($9.25) which is a vegetarian soy sauce noodle dish with shiitake mushrooms, green onions, onions, and a mountain of noodles. Seriously, this was huge pile of noodles.
A few months later, I had a hankering for some wonton noodle soup so I came back for a revisit and ordered the Beef Brisket and Wonton Noodle Soup ($9). Interestingly, they brought me out a fork with my dish and they seemed surprised when I asked for a pair of chopsticks. Maybe I don’t look Chinese enough…
This is a big bowl of noodles… easily big enough to share with two people. There’s also quite a large amount of tender beef brisket in this dish. What you don’t see in the first picture is the 6 large pork and shrimp wontons underneath all of the noodles.
In keeping with the theme of this post, here’s their Special Chow Mein ($11.75) which comes with a mix of seafood and various meats (bbq pork, chicken, shrimp, squid, shiitake mushrooms, veggies, etc…). This isn’t on their lunch special menu and it seemed to take longer for them to make. Probably best to just stick with their lunch specials.
Exactly 1 year from my initial revisit in 2018, I returned to New Lakeview Seafood (interestingly enough, it was also a snowy day). The Pan Fried Beef with Rice Noodles ($11.50) is another noodle dish (this time, a broad and flat rice noodle) which I’ve always enjoyed since my childhood. Simple and satisfying… and let’s not forget the huge portion size.
If you’re looking for a place to fill up on carbs… this is a good place to visit.
UPDATE – Dec 2025: It’s been about 6 years since I last visited here. Used to come here when I worked in the neighbourhood. The name of the restaurant always puzzled me because it’s not near a lake and the restaurant seems to have been here for years. Still, you can count on a good deal here with generous portion size and fair prices.
Had the Assorted Meat and Seafood with Bean Curd Hot Pot $21.5, Shredded Chicken Chow Mein $19.95, and Egg Rolls $2.25 each.
Service was friendly and helpful and the place was fairly busy.
