Kum Hong BBQ Restaurant

This is one of the best Chinese BBQ places in the area. The place gets über busy. The roast pork and duck are excellent and the lady who cuts the meat does an excellent job. Note –they don’t give sauce with the roast pork. However, be prepared for long wait times. Depending on your patience and how much you value time, you may want to go to Johnny’s BBQ in the Chalmers plaza. They are just as good (maybe better), but are pricier.

Heard its good and came here 6-​ish on a weeknight. Almost everything gone but still wanna give it a try. It’s such an awful experience. I was so regret. They just made me feel like they don’t care about your business. This is the WORST service I have ever had. I’ll never come back again no matter how good your stuffs are. Damn it.

Good spot for a cheap lunch, however it’s not my favourite Chinese BBQ takeout.
I ordered a lunch combo of roast pork and bbq duck. The pork was tender and juicy with a very nicely done crispy skin. Duck was okay as well, but the skin wasn’t as crispy as I would have liked, it was still really fat. Also they gave me a me big amounts of pork, but very little duck. With the combo, they put in a little bit of ginger and onion sauce, which I thought was suppose to go with chicken only. And there’s NO VEGETABLES!!! Most Chinese barbecue combos should come with some sort of veggies, bak choy or cabbage, or something. But there was NONE. Which is a very big disappointment for me, I understand that meat loving guys might not mind, but after having so many pieces of greasy meat and rice, I do want some veggies to cleanse my palate and also to have a healthier diet. Now I have to go grab a salad from McDonald’s next door, then it just doesn’t make the cheap price worth it.
Probably won’t be coming back, unless I’m getting a whole duck or chicken to add to a family dinner, then I don’t have to worry about the vegetable problem.

Stopped in to sample some of the delicious pork before I bring it home and I was very pleased. There’s no frills here, just good Chinese BBQ. Tried the rice combo with BBQ and roast pork. The BBQ pork was well cooked, fatty and flavourful. The roast pork had perfectly crisp skin, excellent flavour and was very moist. Some of the best Chinese BBQ I’ve had in quite some time. They also add a very tasty garlic/​ginger/​onion medley to add a twist of flavour. It would be nice if there were some accompaniment options other than just rice, but definitely worth popping into.

One of the best roast ducks in markham. The tofu is great too, although a bit pricier than other places, they fry it to order, so its pretty worth it.
The woman who cuts the meat is a bit weird. Never acknowledges people. Never speeds up when there is a line, which I respect. The one thing that drives me nuts is, she makes multiple chops to make the same cuts, which leaves bone pieces. Usually the technique is to make one strong chop to avoid shattering bone, but she just does her own thing.

I LOVE the roasted pork here. It is a bit more expensive than some other places BUT they cut out the fat before they weigh it. Sure… minimal, but I appreciate that. Makes you feel better about eating it. We’ve also had the BBQ pork and duck. Everything has been great. It’s also always busy. Doesn’t matter what time of day.

So growing up in richmond hill my family used to always get chinese bbq from here. That is, until we discovered Excellent BBQ at richlane mall. Make no mistake folks, kum hong is amazing but it isn’t the crème de la crème aka cream of the crop! Excellent BBQ is simply a cut above with their meats (pun intended). If you think this place is the best chinese bbq in the area go on over and try excellent bbq RIGHT NOW. In the meantime, i’ve come back to kum hong for a couple of recent visits (for nostalgia’s sake) and it is absolutely deserving of its 4 stars. Just Not The Best Though =P … and this is coming from a dude who eats chinese bbq once every week minimum lol. Cheers!

A OK for what it is. A small Chinese BBQ take-​out restaurant. BBQed ducks hanging with their heads intact. Cleaver cutting through bones. I decided to stick to the familiar and order chicken legs.
Fresh Chinese BBQ. Quick service despite the lineup. Reasonable prices. Check it out if you are in the area and craving Chinese BBQ. Or if you never had it before and want to try something new.

Favourite chinese BBQ place in the GTA. Roast pork is crispy and juicy!

Easily the best Chinese BBQ you can get in Markham/​Richmond Hill. I often go here for lunch takeout because I work just around the corner. Not a lot of space for dine-​in. Mostly a takeout cash only joint, there are a few seats for single seating but will not accommodate larger groups. Location is hard to find at first and parking around lunch time can sometimes be hard to get. Portions are good for the price and I’m left full every time. Ordering is easy as the ladies speak both fluent English and Chinese. I always get the BBQ Pork and Roasted Pork and i must say it’s the best I’ve ever had. Also comes with a little bit of garlic sauce on the side. The lineups during peek hours can sometimes cause longer than usual wait times especially when some people have larger orders but nothing too crazy. Roasted pork is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside not dry like some places. The BBQ pork is also very tasty, soft not chewy and flavorful. Awesome, must try place for quick takeout lunch or dinner!

Absolutely love the BBQ food here, and especially for the cheap price. $ 6.50 for a medium and $ 7.50 for a large combo (rice + 2 choices of meat).
There’s always a large portion of rice to go with the food so you’ll always be full, even on the medium sized combo. Worry not about the large abundance of rice, because the sauce they use is absolutely delicious!/
For meats, I recommend the BBQ pork and roasted pork. The roast duck is average.

3.5
I’m not a fan of hanging meats but everyone else seems to really love it. This place has been around for years in the same plaza as McDonald’s on valleymede. Come with cash.

This is a great place to eat if you are looking for something cheap, delicious, fast and filling. The small lunch combo is rice with 2 choice of meat for $ 6.50 and a large for $ 7.50. They accept cash only and there aren’t many seats for dine in. I have tried their BBQ pork, roast pork, roast duck, soy chicken and sausage in the rice combo. My favourite by far is the roast pork because it’s always so juicy and the skin is very crispy. I come here at least once a week for lunch before work and the quality of the meats are always consistently good. Staff working there are always friendly and quite fast with getting the orders done. I definitely recommend trying this BBQ place out.

This is a great place for those who enjoy a cheap and delicious lunch. I come here a lot when I was in high school for lunch since it was only 6.95 $ for a lunch box with your two choice of meat. The bbq pork and the duck is delicious. The roast pork is above average but gets out shinned by everything else they have there. I do recommend coming if you’re looking for an alternative to fast food

I work close by at nights and come here often for the crispy pork, and also u cant beat that price for two meats and rice for 6.50 $ tax in.
I due wish they sayed open later, however i can see how 8:30pm is a good time to close, as business reallly slows down by then, also the crispy pork seems to be really popular and does run out quite often.
As a chinese take out bbq place i think they have it figures out.
Staff is friendly, fast and taste that u cant beat.

Definitely the best BBQ and roasted Chinese pork I’ve ever had! Seriously delicious! The crispy skin on the roast pork is perfect an the bbq pork has a delicious sweetness! Just wish I could get more ginger and scallion sauce without the $ 3.50 tag for a condiment other places nearby give as much as you want for free!

Hands down the best Chinese BBQ joint in the GTA! There’s a reason why there’s always a line of people waiting to pick up their order!
First let me state that I never like to order roast pork from BBQ joints as the meat is always fatty at most places… however roast pork is what I always order at Kum Hong! I don’t know how they do it but most of the fat is somehow rendered off leaving just a little fat and the most crispy roasted skin that absolutely crackles in your mouth when you bite into it! The meat itself is absolutely perfectly seasoned and the ginger onion oil adds the perfect season on top of a bed of rice.
Pair this up with the leanest and most tender «char siu» BBQ pork with there sauce and you have heaven!
I’ve never had a bad meal here. The roast duck, soy chicken are all outstanding! I hate drive by because I always find myself accidentally dropping in even when I already ate!
I never go anywhere else for Chinese BBQ! Please note the roast pork usually sells out by around 1−2pm and the next batch usually doesn’t come out till 4pm or so.
Some stools are in the store but most people order to go. $ 6.50 for a regular rice combo with up to 2 choices and $ 7.50 for a larger rice combo. Cash only.
Man I’m starting to drool thinking about it!

Simple, cheap, delicious. If you want Chinese BBQ, this is the place. Particularly for those west of the 404 along Highway 7 who don’t want to trek out east to First Markham Place’s food court, this place can’t be beat. It’s located at Valleymede & Highway 7, in the McDonald’s plaza.
The décor is extremely sparse — basically a small table and counter for sit-​down clientelle, but most are just takeout. Menu is simple and I’d say at least 80% of the people go for the standard $ 5.50 combo of rice + 2 meats, which also comes with some sauce and a small spoon of that addictive salty green onion ginger salad. Nasty stuff the first time you try it but believe me it grows on you. If you do choose to eat in they also provide free tea, and recently even added a microwave for your meals — I guess if you’re coming in with others that have food from other establishments? Or you want your food extra hot perhaps?
Come before noon or closer to 1pm otherwise you’ll have a bit of a line to stand in. The meat is hung behind a glass display case (typical of most BBQ places) and you choose what you want and the girl will expertly chop it in front of you and lay it on the rice. A few times I catch her looking away while she cleaver the meat and I think it’s a wonder she hasn’t lost a finger before, but she knows what she’s doing.
Favourite meats — bbq pork and roasted pork (with the crispy skin — so bad, but sooo good). Chicken and duck also available, and some sausage. You can also buy just the meat by the pound to take home — all a good deal. I could probably eat this stuff every day — and nice to have it local. It’s bare bones in terms of their ambience, but the food more than makes up for it. Their quality is always bang on, the stream of customers is constant and this place has been around a long time. Hope it stays here for a while!

I usually stop by here for to grab a quick cheap lunch.
There is a small counter and table where you can grab a hot tea to go with your lunch
The selection and quality of the various BBQ meats is excellent.
I like the way the lady meat cutter is very careful in selecting a nice selection of meat for your order.
I also frequently do the take out for a cheap dinner for my family.

Tiny place serving up Chinese BBQ the right way.
Kum Hong is this smallish restaurant consisting of a staff of tiny Asian women serving you dead animals hanging from a window. It’s simply incredible. The reviews led me to believe that the place would be packed around lunch time, but I came around 1pm on a Friday and didn’t encounter a single person. The prices are cheap and the portion sizes were fair.
I’ve read much about the BBQ pork and knew I should try it. But I didn’t. I ordered the Roast Pork (Crispy Skin) and the Roast Duck on Rice. The portion size looks so small while they’re cutting it up, but it packs a wallop on your appetite.
The Roast Pork was absolutely incredible as the meat was SO tender. It was actually odd to taste because most of the time it can be pretty dry. The meat was moist while the skin was still crisp. It was a tad oily but the fact that it wasn’t dry blinded me from caring. The Roast Duck was great too. Half of my portion was pretty much skin attached to bone, but the other half was pure meat. The taste was just like most other places that offer roast duck… which are all incredible. Rice portion was great too and they add a bit of thin soy sauce to the white rice when they serve it up.
Place is small, but its good. The ideal takeout place with a couple of chairs scattered around a pair of countertops. Most value comes from buying by the pound and making your own rice or going carb-free…but who could resist? This Asian here can’t say no to rice…
