    LOVE their chicken wings, fish siu mai, and ice lemon tea!!

    Chicken wings ($4.50 for 5): Their chicken wings are so crispy and the saltiness is just right.

    Fish siu mai ($2.80 for 5): The fish siu mai, OH MY~~~~ so yummy!! They have the best fish siu mai in town!
    they have 2 kinds of siu mai, one is the dim sum style (pork inside), one is the street food style (fish inside), TRY the street food fish siu mai! SOOO GOOD! I look around and always see 3, 4 other tables ordering it. The fish siu mai is so big and there's a lot of fish meat inside the siu mai, so soft, and taste sooo good with the sweet soy sauce that they put on the dish. (I uploaded the pictures of fish siu mai) MUST TRY!

    Ice lemon tea ($2.75): LOVE the ice lemon tea! Their ice lemon tea taste better than the other places!!

    This place is the ultimate last resort location for food.
    They are always open and always seem busy.
    They also make all kinds of food, from bakery to sushi, to BBQ.
    However though they do everything, they are not particularly good at anything. You would only come here if there were no other options. Usually late night meals. The food may not always be at its best here; but I am more than happy that they have been around for such a long time, satisfying my many late night cravings through my tennage years

    Although I couldn't savour Richmond Court's array of in-house treats, I had the opportunity to taste their Mango Mousse cake, which, I must add was the ultimate desert option and immediate salvation to thine soul. I must've experienced divinity everytime I took a bite. The 5-star rating is, as a result, exclusively for their cake. A wise man once said, " to predict the quality of a crate of apples, just sample one." I am sure this would apply in this case as well.

    2.5*
    Had a craving for some criiiiispy noooodles, was in the area (*gasp!* so far north?!) so popped in here for some Chow Mein.
    The service was very non-chalant. Actually, the waiter started walking away before we were even done speaking a few times. I think i was lucky i was with a Cantonese speaking friend, or we might have been ignored completely!
    As usual, they brought over the delicious tea right away. We then got a HK style Milk Tea (yum!!), dumpling with noodles in soup and Cantonese Chow Mein. The dumpling noodle soup was really good. I also really liked the Chow Mein! I like to sprinkle the chili oil on mine for a little heat.
    Atmosphere left something to be desired, and the service could definitely be improved. But the food was good.

    Sometimes I think that I can be blinded by Nostalgia and Memories that never seem to go away.  I'm probably not the only one as most HK people always claim that the Milk Tea in HK is much better quality.  I'm probably one of them as I always think that the Thick-walled Tea Cups in HK only exist there and the ones here are either less thick or doesn't have the same characteristic.  

    I was quite satisfied by both the quality of the Milk Tea here and the Made-in-China overused Thick-walled Tea Cups here at Richmond Court. I've always enjoyed their Milk Tea or even Coffee/Tea combination and I still continue to do so(+0.5 Star).

    I was less than happy when my Condensed Milk/Peanut Butter on Baguette Bun finally arrived when everyone finished their choice of Drink and the XO Sauce Radish Cake.  Overall its an essential HK style Cafe that comes with that authentic style of speed, service(...), and selection although I would be hesitant to order any Japanese Sushi there.

    Side Note: I noticed that most of the women working there had some pretty hip-happening hairstyles.  Maybe they get sponsors from a neighbour hairstylish.  Check-it-out!

    This place is an example of trying to do too much, yet returns not enough. I'm talking about the magnificent varieties of food they have (anyone dared to order sushi there?).

    I normally have the braised beef noodle soup. I love the soup and noodles they have. The beef, not so much; some are too hard and of sorts. My dad loves the satay beef buns (is that even in the menu? I haven't checked, but if you say it, they know what it is). I don't recommend the iced lemon tea, there's no substance in it.

    Service is blah, but then again they never have enough people in a place this gigantic.

    Great for a quick cheap meal.  This location seems to have larger portions than the location at Bur Oak, probably to maintain competitiveness with so much selection so close to it.   Ordered the duck noodles, fried beef noodles and a side dish and it came out to $20 with leftovers!  Unheard of.  Service is curt and fast.  This is in the style of the street market food in HK and China so it is definately consistent with that style.  I would ask them to thin out the sauce in the crispy noodles.   All else is fine.  Cleansiness is acceptable.  Go for a quick cheap meal.  Lots of selection of noodles, congee, one dish meals.

    Blah! Inefficient customer service and the quality of food resulted me with a private date with the Porcelain King for fifteen minutes.  After enduring a one hour and four minute flight with the unruling Delta Airlines from New York's JFK to Toronto Pearson International Airport, my family and I crave for Chinese comfort food as we were immensely famished. We ordered noodle soup which the braised beef noodle soup was salty, spicy and poor quality in meat. The meat lack substance.  Bubble Tea is priced at CAN $3.75 but no choice of mango.

    There were no waiter in sight to hail for our bill to be tallied, plus our waiter disappeared to oblivion along with a small lump sum gratuity. I had to personally walk to the cashier to get our change as the wait staff was completely unavailable to be disturb from their precious time.

    N.B. Richmond Court only accepts cash and debit cards, NO other form of credit cards (American Express; Visa; Master Card; Discover; or JBC) are accepted.

    Sentimental..... That's how I feel about this restaurant. Growing up in Richmond Hill I frequented Richmond court because the asian grub was hella bang-on and mad cheap. I remember going there as a kid slamming that fluorescent hot and sour soup and eating deep fried salty squid until my belly hurt. I remember going there as a teen, ordering the whole menu and smoking butt after butt in that closed off glass smoking area. I remember going there last month and re-living all my childhood experiences.

    I won't lie, the quality of food there has gone down a bit over the years, but it is still one of the top places to secure Chinese food in the Richmond Hill/Markham area. When I'm fiending hot & sour, that Cantonese noodle crunch, or that ideal texture perfect jelly rice noodle, RC always delivers for me. If you are a bun/pastry lover they have a whole section of it by the mall entrance, I've only ever tried the pineapple buns which are sweet, solid, and stellar.

    Let it be known I do not vouch for this restaurant as a Dim Sum venue, I've had it a few times and it can not hold a candle to other fine restaurants in Markham. Another point to note is people often confuse this location with another at 328 Highway 7 E. As far as I know, this location I am reviewing is the classic spot. But see for yourself.

    Ideal Order

    Hot & Sour Soup
    Cantonese Noodles
    Richmond Court Fried Rice
    Deep Fried Salty Squid
    Rice Noodles w/ Black Been Beef
    Beef w/ Ginger & Green Onions
    Assorted Sweet Buns
    Hong Kong Style Milk Tea

    I work at Woodbine and 7...guess where I'm going for lunch today.

    Not the greatest to eat at. Food isn't so great, and the prices aren't exactly cheap. There are plenty of other places in the area that offer a similar menu, though I will admit that Richmond Court offers a lot of various dishes. I don't think I'll come back here.
