Excellent, friendly service, excellent quality, and quantity I have gone there for years and enjoy it each and every time. Decor is older but so are the prices, both work just fine for me and many of my friends! Thanks for great food, Rick
Great pop in place for lunch, slide variety of eats. Chinese food was piping hot, and portions were generous. Great place to stop in cottage country. Will come back for sure
The restaurant's old-looking atmosphere aside, Kinvale is a MUST visit! I loved their Combo #4 and #5: they were very-lightly tasted and had sizable portions with respect to their prices. Not to mention professional staffs who were highly knowledgable of their own menus. Could've been an easy 5-stars review if the restaurant were renovated...
Food was excellent. Chop suey was the tastiest I've had in years and years. Portion size was huge, we went in starving, and could only eat half of our plates. Price was excellent
“Don’t judge a book by its cover”!GREAT food- aged yet quaint and clean interior setting-authentic but also have “Canadian Chinese” option on the menu ;) !!! We had tough luck on our long drive as our favourite food places weren’t open this time or under renovations-so that’s how we decided to give a new place a try- and boy are we happy we did!! Friendly , welcoming, wonderful fresh and hot portions!Thank you so much!! Our little dog sure begged for a taste!
Super friendly , huge portion sizes and great value . Food absolutely delicious , had the general tso and lo mein noodles . Cant wait to go back and try more !
The hot turkey sandwich was delicious, just like I remembered it from when I was a kid. Super cute little place and nice people.
I don’t know why there a lot of negative reviews about the portions or quality of food, but we had great food. We had a mix of Canadian and Chinese food. Portions were definitely not small. (And we’re big fat eaters!) and all of it was very tasty! We had to get take-out containers to take the rest home. I’ve never had wings done like that before. We had the crispy honey garlic wings and it was like the crispy batter of fish and chips. Different but so good! Delicious burger too. Definitely made in-house (it wasn’t a frozen patty). We will be back for sure!
