My partner and I frequent this restaurant and it is consistently delicious. Their relatively low score on Google does not align with our experiences. I urge you to go, and try the ground pork and pea noodles, mapo tofu, Chongqing style fried pork, fried lobster balls and just about everything else on the menu. It's fantastic.

A few days ago I had the pleasure of dining at Yummy Chongqing with a friend for the second time. My experience has been excellent at this restaurant. We both ordered the Ground Pork & Pea Sauce Noodle. We chose regular spicy and large size. The noodles were very tasty and I was not overpowered by spiciness. Our server was quite courteous. The table surfaces were clean and the restaurant was well lit. A lot of students appear to come here, which reminded me of my days eating in this plaza when I was studying at the University of Waterloo.

Came with a group of friends. Ordered a few different dishes to share. Surprisingly no extra plates or bowls given out, no tea or water to start. After asking for water it still took 20 minutes or so to come. The food itself actually came before the water did. We also received the wrong order as well, but they didn't charge us for it thankfully after telling them. Food was hot and tasted good, lots of flavour and decent quantities, providing good value. Try the Mapo Tofu! The restaurant looks a little run down, especially if you use the washroom but overall it was a good experience.
