-Greatest restaurant. .and the best Chinese food I've had in my whole lifetime. .my Grandfather and Grandmother..took me there weekly as a child..the best banana and coconut cream pie EVER!
-We still buy all our Chinese food from Yong's.
-Yongs was our restaurant for the 44 Years we have lived around Georgetown. Lawrence the waiter was like a friend to our family. Don’t know if he has retired, we have not gone there for awhile. Great restaurant!
-Heard he retired about 2 weeks ago
-He is still there. As of 3 weeks ago at least.
-Yes....great place....Guy and Lawrence never forgot a name....:)
-I went to library as a teen and hung out in yongs til my mom found out lol

-I remember going there way back in the 60"s. Great Food There. I Always Order From There. :)
-Omg...it's still there?????
-My father loved the place.
-it was Fongs and downtown first and moved up there
-I worked there in the 80's great place to work , great food ,great people to work for and with , and awesome customers! Lawrence was great to work with 🍜
-they should paint a Chinese Mural on that wall .. would look great ... I still go there for Take-Out a couple of times a month ...
- if I recall correctly, you and I went to Fong's for coffee and fries a time or two...
-Yes we did. Instead of the station.
-you're right .. it was Fongs with me too
-I'd have been about 13 or 14, and went in with a few dollars in my pocket. I asked the guy at the counter if they sold onion rings. (the fish and chip shop is down the street, but I digress...) The guy looks at me and with broken English says "What? Who rings? Yea, yea, yea...we sell onion." I say "rings...you know fried onion rings?" He says "Yea, fried onion...you want a plate?" "Sure, and a soda" I said. 10 minutes later I was served a heaping pile of fried onion on a plate(like 2 or 3 whole onions worth)...with a soda!? I laughed, and he was genuinely confused as to why I found the food so funny. 😎 True story.
-Still go there
-The best Chinese food ever. Live out of town now but still look forward to having Yongs when we visit G’town. Was there 2 weeks ago and Lawrence served us. He told us he was retiring the next day. He was the best. Never wrote anything down and always got the order right. He was retiring to concentrate on babysitting his grandchildren in Oakville. He was a staple at Yongs. He will be greatly missed. And oh, we hadn’t been in a long time but the food was still excellent!
-Wish i had known that he was retiring, i would have taken him a gift.
-He was awesome, Paul and I went there often when Paul was young, we moved to Milton and it was 20 years since I had been there. I sat down and Lawrence came over to serve me and ask the Usual Don and he rimmed off what we would usually order, wow. I wish him the best and thank him :)
-My grandparents and i use to go there all the time
-Every Monday night date night for years with my daughter between dance classes
-only place for great Chinese food
-My Mother's favorite place! Don't know how many calendars and gifts she got from here! Good fries and gravy too!
-Big goldfish
-My friend Donna Renahan and I used to go in there all the time for tea after school. Sometimes we would have a fired egg sandwich. Funny the things you remember.
-Wonderful memories.
-Believe it or not best fries and gravy.
-I used to take our boys there all the time for lunch and they always had dessert. Our family used to have dinner there a lot.
-coconut cream pie was the best like 30.years ago
-Omg I remember that and the Boston Creme pie
-They also made the best egg salad
-The meeting and eating/beer drinking place so much fun.
-Bob you are right. Lawrence and Guy were the best when we lived in Georgetown. They both were favourites with our boys. We spent many happy hours there. It always amazed me that they knew everybody by name. Lawrence was always so helpful when we would leave money for a meal for Jim Greenaway. They were kind to him.
-My husband and I both love Cantonese chow mein so when I order Lawrence always says just one share and get something else and I say no Lawrence 2 Chow Mein he then says get Harry French fries then so he wins love love love there food 🍚🥗🍨☕️
