komodo restaurant

new favourite chinese restaurant!. very quick, friendly, and cheap service. all of the food weorderedwas fresh and tasted really good. usually when ordering chinese the rice is often dry and not the best, but here that is very different! highly recommended :)

decent for takeout. if you're in the mood for westernized chinese food, then you'll really enjoy this place as that seems to be their specialty, however they do have a few more traditional dishes on the menu as well.

i am very fond of their black bean dishes as well as their cantonese chow mein and satay dishes and usually order one or all of them as staples along with something new. the way their mapo tofu (mah por tofu on the menu) is presented is unique and i quite like it too, though it could be spicier.. you can tell they tone down the spice to a canadian palette.

i'm not quite in their delivery area (in my opinion) but they still have always delivered to my house and have never once said anything about the distance or charged me a single cent extra... in fact my delivery orders have always been free (no delivery fee).

my one big complaint is that in a lot of the more westernized dishes (such as sweet and sour anything, honey garlic, ginger beef, etc) they come extremely salty. whether it's from msg or not, the salt was so much in some breaded veal iorderedonce, i had to throw the entire thing out after eating only a couple pieces of the entire dish.

their portions aren't as "insane" as some of the other reviewers here may lead you to believe... they're a lot smaller than plenty of other places in the city order up, but they're definitely not small, and the price is very reasonable for what comes in your order.

it seems to be a balancing act between what's good and what's not, but when you find that balance, the place can be incredibly good for that quick chinese food fix, especially for the price which is one of the best valuations i've seen from any chinese restaurant in years.

awesome food. the best chinese food i can remember having. they just get better and better each time. their ginger beef is wonderful, along with all other items we tried on the menu (dinner for 2, etc.). have onlyorderedfor delivery and the wait time is not always as long as told and it always arrives hot and fresh. we do not live close, but just within the delivery area. thank you for some good eats.

love this place. it's the place my in-laws order from regularly and when my iwn parents stopped by for dinner and wanted chinese, we called them up andordereda meal for 5. we got two huge bags of food, hot and flavourful. i love the chow mein and beef vegetables. will be mu go-to from now on.

their shanghai noodles are insane good. we almost called back andordereda second order of them in the same evening!

you'd never suspect it's so good. we went to komodo on the recommendation of a friend this evening, and wow it was good! hidden away in a strip mall in windsor park, physically it is not impressive, but we went for the food - and it did impress. started with the bbq pork- about as standard an item as you can request, but theirs was outstandingly good. my partnerorderedegg rolls, which i usually don't like, but i did like theirs. tasted house made with very nice vegetables. mains were komodo beef, lemon chicken, and a cantonese chicken chow main - all really good. also tried the deep fried wontons - delicious with meat inside, and the crab rolls which i did not enjoy. all in all will definitely go back
,service was great - i suspect he's the owner's son. lovely.

surprising. after reading reviews on urban spoon, i decided to order. delivery took 30mins and food was hot and fresh as if iorderedin the restaurant. portions were more than enough for 2 people. id say this place has the best chicken balls i've ever had. defiantly recommendation if in the windsor park area!!

finally!. after years of searching i have finally found a great chinese take out. i hadorderedfrom here a few years ago and loved it. then ate in the restaurant buffet and hated it. tonight i thought i'd take a chance with their take out again & it was as good as the first time. the chow mien and chicken with mushrooms & veggies were my favorites. lemon chicken was gobbled up by the kids. battered sweet & sour shrimp were very battered. would try breaded next time.

vege great chicken funky. my friend and iorderedkomodo after we tried calling 4 seasons our regular chinese take-out and they were closed  . the vegetables were great! weorderedthe chicken almond with diced vegetable which was satisfactory. the vegetables tasted fresh and great, but the chicken not soo much. i despise dark meat and there was a lot of it i expected some nice white meat chicken breast and i feel like we got chicken scraps! we alsoorderedthe beef with broccoli. again broccoli was great but the beef was far too chewy and i felt like it wasn’t even real beef. i really don’t feel like eating pieces of fat for dinner. we alsoorderedbeef chow main and i love noodles but they were far too salty and saucy same deal with the beef. the deep fried wontons were not bad a little lighter in taste but i prefer my meat more real and compact again. i feel like they need better meat!!! service was fast; maybe we justorderedthe wrong dishes. but if we did consider you warned!! mystery meat!!

great dishes. never been disapponted that iorderedthat one. when i review other chinese restaurants this is the one i compare them to. the others would have to be amazing to beat this place, most are subpar and not even close. eat here and it is hard to enjoy chinese from elsewhere. yes you need to order from here. the best chinese food i've had throughout the city.
