About Congee Queen - North York(Lawrence/Don Mills)
Congee Queen - North York (Lawrence/Don Mills) is a Chinese restaurant located at 895 Lawrence Ave E #8, North York, ON M3C 3L2, Canada. You can contact them at (416) 916-0338 or +1 416-916-0338.
This location is recognized by some as the original Congee Queen and is considered by at least one regular customer to be the best among other Congee Queen locations in Toronto. While it is noted as a much smaller location compared to others, it maintains the great "umami" flavor that Congee Queen dishes are known for, leaving customers eager for a return visit.
A significant feature highlighted by patrons is the consistently good taste and the very large portion sizes of their dishes. Popular orders include Fried Rice Noodle with beef (E25), Chicken fried rice with Salted Fish (H11), and Snow Pea Leaves stir-fried with garlic (K17). These dishes are frequently ordered and well-received for their flavor and quantity.
An attractive service offered at this Congee Queen location is a 10% discount for customers who pay in cash, providing a direct incentive for cash transactions.
However, one area of feedback concerns their in-house spicy sauce. A customer found it to be lacking in spiciness and noted an excessive amount of vinegar, making it not very tasty. The suggestion was made that the restaurant might consider sourcing spicy sauce from a supermarket to improve its quality.
For local users in the North York area, particularly near Lawrence and Don Mills, Congee Queen offers a reliable option for delicious Chinese comfort food, especially their signature congee and a variety of other flavorful dishes. The generous portion sizes and the added benefit of a cash discount make it an appealing choice. While the spicy sauce may not meet everyone's preferences, the overall food quality and service seem to be highly regarded by many.

Customer Reviews
I personally love congee queen and always went to the centrepoint mall location. We decided to try the OG location. It was goooood! Its a much smaller location. All dishes had great umami flavour. They tasted like how good congee queen dishes taste. I loved it and cant wait to go back.
Every time we go to Toronto, we go to this Congee Queen location for dinner the day we arrive. This Congee Queen is the best among other Congee Queen locations. We normally order Fried Rice Noodle with beef (E25), Chicken fried rice with Salted Fish (H11), Snow Pea Leaves stir fried with garlic (K17). The food portion is always huge. The taste is consistently good. If you pay cash, you get 10% discount. The only thing we don’t like is their in-house spicy sauce. It wasn’t spicy at all. Too much vinegar put in the sauce. Not tasty at all. I hope that the restaurant management can get the spicy sauce from any supermarket instead of making the sauce in the kitchen to save cost.
Not the best congee queen location, food was mid and service is less friendly compared to other locations. We ordered the set menu for 4 adults which came with a lot of food. Lobster was overcooked. Standouts were fried rice and duck.
This place offers the most comprehensive selection of Chinese cuisine you can imagine, with consistently good quality across the board. The BBQ, fried sticky buns, and fish are particular standouts, though everything else is nearly satisfying. While prices have gone up slightly compared to two years ago, they are still reasonable overall.
We have been loyal customers of Congee Queen, dining in and ordering takeout from this location as well as others for over 10 years. While our experiences have generally been positive, we were disappointed with our today’s order of dish K56, which was not fresh and had a strong, unpleasant smell. We value the high standards that Congee Queen is known for in serving fresh, high-quality Asian cuisine. We hope this was an isolated incident and trust that the team will address it to maintain the excellent quality we’ve come to expect. We look forward to seeing improvements and continuing our support for this beloved restaurant.
