We ordered kumpao and chicken fried rice, it was a lot of food and it was delicious. I think this restaurant deserves more than the 4.2 that it has. The ladies that took out order were really kind
After over a week without Chinese food, my parents and I were skeptical about having Chinese food up so north into Yukon. We were pleasantly surprised by the Gon Chow Ngau Ho. The taste in rivals some on the restaurants in Vancity! The service here is also very homely and warm. Love what they have here and they definitely make the most of the ingredients they have in town
Food was very delicious and big portions. Service was very friendly but unfortunately she didn’t know the dishes and we had to google them. All in all highly recommended.
I stopped here for a bite to eat after a long day of driving. The Chow Fun was amazing and just what I needed to warm up!
Best Chinese food in the Yukon, and in my opinion, the best I've personally ever eaten! Super quick and friendly service, I ALWAYS stop to eat here whenever I drive through during their open hours of operation
Ordered the chicken curry with rice as I wanted the vegetables. Very nice flavor of curry, with just the right amount of heat. Very pleased with the service, food and price.
Great food! The combo selections have large portions. Plenty to bring back for left overs! The shrimp tempura was great!
We ordered dinner for two, but got dinner for three instead! No complaints here, though - that food was fab and those egg rolls? Spicy goodness!
