Country Place Chinese Restaurant

I've only been for the lunch buffet which is good. They are slow to fill up the trays especially with more expensive options like wings and stirfried veg but they will make more if you ask. The buffet has a limited number of dishes but they are of a very good quality.

This is the best Chineese food in Ottawa and it is run by the loveliest family. Encourage everyone to try it -especially the spicy peanut chicken and shrimp guy ding.

My favourite Chinese takeout was closed for some holiday time - very upsetting - so I had to get my order from elsewhere. My Google research showed Country Place as the closest to home, seemed reasonably priced, had the menu online, offered free fried rice with a minimum $38.00 order - no problem since we were 6 for dinner - and had a decent review. We were able to closely duplicate the dishes that we were used to, including Cantonese Chow Mein, Buddah's Delight (a mixed veggie assortment with tofu), General Tsao's, a beef and broccoli dish, chicken with mixed vegetables, and something else which I can't remember. The quality was very good all around, especially the beef and broccoli, although in general, I felt that the vegees were a bit over cooked. While the free fried rice was included, it was a bit surprising that plain steamed rice was not. 6 dishes for the six of us plus one (small) egg roll each was just right, with only a bit of leftovers. I would indeed go back to Country Place, should my local takeout have the nerve to be closed again !! Please note that any additional comments are based strictly on takeout, and not eat in.

I've been going to Country Place Chinese restaurant for at least 15 years. My brother introduced it to me otherwise I would probably have never noticed it. I've only ever had lunch there, enjoying the buffet for $10. The crispy chicken wings are a huge favorite so be sure to get some when they arrive from the kitchen. They won't last long! The restaurant is small and very simple. You'll feel like you are in someone's house as the owner's children have decorated the wall behind the cash with drawings. There are lots of regulars, mostly men I find. The service is non intrusive and efficient. The food is tasty and there is a good variety. It's a wonderful place to go when you have a craving for Chinese food but don't want anything too fancy.

I have been going to this restaurant for a weekly take away meal twice a month and have found the food is fresh and tasty. The portions are generous. I call ahead as the meals are freshly prepared which takes about fifteen minutes to complete....The seafood delight is awesome so nice to have fish that isn't battered and deep fried !
