Welcome this new fusion restaurant / bakery to Markham area. I ordered a curry beef brisket on the rice for my lunch. The... brisket is very soft. The curry sauce strikes a beautiful balance between curry, herbs, coconut milk and some other components.The rice is well cooked and soft. The chef is generous in providing the brisket. The curry sauce is also abundant. You can haveyour last spoon of rice with curry. The iced milk tea is silky and not very sweet. Nice. Looking forward to try other dishesand their bakery next time.

First time to try this Starchiva restaurant. Interior was very cozy & nice decor. Staff was friendly. Price was decent and... portions were big. We tried the Signature Starchiva BBQ Pork & Egg on Rice, Beef Brisket on Rice Noodle soup and Black PepperSauce w Chicken Breast on Fettucine. Food was pretty delicious and full of HK style flavors. They offer fresh baked HK bakery$2.99 for most of buns or $12 for 6. Free in house cake dessert order after 4pm during weekday with selected choices. Willdefinitely visit again. Read more
Been craving hk style diner food lately and decided to come by here for lunch. [ Chicken & Pork chop on fettuccine w/ gravy ]... Both cutlets were cooked beautifully skin on chicken had a nice crisp to it and I chose to go with fettuccine as side for thefirst time instead of rice and was pleased on how much better it paired with the meal(imo). [ French Toast ] The diner alsosell fresh pastries here as well so I knew I was in for a treat when ordering the french toast. The freshness of the breadreally sets them apart. Great little fluffy goodness topped with butter and condensed milk. [ Curry fish ball ] I like thetexture of the fish ball. It's firmness is spot on where it doesn't seem overly processed like ones that you find insupermarket/hot pot restaurants. Coated with curry, great combination. The food was great and staff here are friendly. HoweverI do feel like they're understaffed. So I would suggest you ask for extra napkins (if you're a messy eater like me) while theytake your order as it can be hard to get a hold of staff later because they're so busy. Read more
This was my first time here and I don?t even know there is a little restaurant here when I by pass it everyday. The sign isn?t... very eye-catching so maybe it?s hard to realized that?s a restaurant. But I?m surprised once I stepped in, it?s a very cozyplace. They have a many choice for the HK cafe style breakfast and they also sell bakery here!! I will definitely come backagain to try out more dishes from their menu. Read more
ocated in the Times Square plaza off Hwy 7, will need to look carefully as front entrance is small and dark and located on plaza... side away from other restaurants. Corn beef and egg sandwich was spot on, ordered bread toasted cuz I like toast, generousfiling. 4 large pieces of deep fried chicken wings, be careful as it comes very hot right from the deep fryer. Crunchyexterior with moist meat. First bite is an explosion of hot goodness. Now if you're really hungry, order the pork chop ( orother protein) rice, comes with 2 large slabs of protein slathered in a sauce of your choice. My god, who eats this much forlunch. Made a wise decision, ate half a pork chop and looked forward to eating the rest at home Perfect comfort food to eat athome while watching BTS YouTube videos, "Butter" me up. Read more
The food was all delicious and everything was plated nicely. Some of the portions were HUGE and most of us took leftovers home.... It's not a reach to say that two people should share one main and an appetizer or two. I would say the bolognese was probablythe smallest dish out of everything we got. The food all came at average wait times, except one curry rice that we think theyforgot until we reminded them. They also sell buns in the restaurant but they were just regular buns, nothing special.

I called for take out. I ordered a Salmon Signature Dish($24.99), and the waitress confirmed with me if I want the dish or the... rice, I said dish. HOWEVER!!! They still gave me the salmon rice($18.99). But they still charged me as Salmon Dish! After that,I tried to call them and let them know, but they didn?t pick up the phone call at all(I called within their working hour)! Verydisappointed experience. Read more
