Overall experience: 8.5/10
Had a great experience a Xam Yu, under the recommendation from a friend (who is actually from Hong Kong).
The service was really great. The owner was really attentive, as was his staff, and he even offered us dessert on the house!
We ordered:
- sweet and sour pork
- lobster
- clams in black bean sauce
- fried rice
The food was great. From somebody who grew up in Markham, I know that the truly exquisite Chinese restaurants are north of the city, but this place fends well for itself.
THE BOTTOM LINE: if you're craving some greater GTA quality Chinese food, here's your spot.
