  100 % honestly review!!!
  
  I have been going to Willy's for the last 14 years!!! The food there is absolutely delicious. If you do take out and pay cash you get ten percent off. The food quality and taste has always been consistent. My family and I go atleast a couple to a few times a month and we come from downtown just to come eat here!!! For all the Muslim's: the food is halal :). Most people do takeout but I prefer eating at the Restauraunt cause the food comes out hot and fresh.
  
  Some of the dishes that are amazing and a must try...
  
  Appetizers and soup:
  Shrimp or chicken pakoras which are great to start with.... taste even better when you squeeze some lemon on it.
  The hot and sour soup and the chicken corn soup are literally the best soups I've had. Both are full of flavour and I haven't found any other Restauraunt that has topped Willy's soups.
  
  Main dishes:
  Chilli chicken
  Beef with black bean sauce
  Garlic sizzling shrimp
  Manchurian fish
  Vegetable low mein
  Egg/vegetable fried rice
  American chop suey
  
  These main dishes are literally the same dishes we get every single time... and not once has it ever tasted different or bad...
  
  The lunch specials are great and reasonable. I know some people make a deal about the interior but honestly I could care less... the food is so good I don't care if it's outdated or older... quality and consistency are the most important to me. If you have a large group, you can rent the Restauraunt out for private parties. No reservation needed. The place looks empty but that's because a lot people do takeout. When I go to eat, I usually see around 20-30 people just picking up takeout orders. Willy knows all his regulars and they know him and continue to come back to him because of how much they enjoy his food.
  
  I always walk out of there full and content and wanting to eat more even though I am way too full to eat anymore and we always take a couple dishes to go...
  
  I will continue to come to Willy's and support this Restauraunt and tell everyone how good it is. It's definitely a must try and definitely better than any of the Chinese Restauraunt in Richmond hill and I've lived in Richmond Hill for the last 8 years so I'm speaking from experience!!!

  Hakka Willy's on the Hilly.  Yep...after driving by the place over and over again, I decided to abandon my go to spot and try it.
  
  Yes...the order did include Chilli Chicken - how did you know?  :)
  
  Tried the gambit of stuff to see if it will unseed my current fav - Hakka77.  Ordered CC-Dry and CC-Gravy, crispy ginger beef, and hot/sour soup.  The usual order.
  
  The CC was pretty good.  Nice morsels of chicken in their version of seasoning and sauce.  I mixed the two together and it was OK.  Takeout is tough on Crispy Ginger Beef as the packaging allows the heat and steam to form water and make the crispy go away.  A quick trip in the toaster oven and it helps.  I found that the beef as a little too tough.  Again, takeout can kill good food.
  
  Willy's is a no-nonsense place.  Mismatched tables and panelled walls for booths.  A cashier/phone/reception/bar do it all desk at the back of the restaurant.  That's it.  Didn't knock out the reigning champ for the Top of the Hill title but still worth a trip back if running up and down Yonge street.
  
  Cheers.

  Willy's is a hidden gem. Not too busy on a weekday for lunch, but the food has great value and taste.
  
  The service is quite fast as well. I'd definitely recommend the lunch specials or take out. Can't go wrong.

  Absolutely love the food at Willys! Very spicy authentic Hakka, something I truly miss and crave for in Montreal.
  The owner has been working there for years but is a very genuine and lovely guy who puts in 100% effort into the quality of the food.
  I always have a hard time deciding what to order as there is so much to choose from and everything sounds delicious! This time round I went for spicy beef chow mein which again was too good and the portion size was huge (enough for two definitely). It doesn't look like a great place from the outside and very simple interior but it has to be my favourite Hakka chinese in GTA! Highly highly recommend

  I was in the mood for Chinese and I read the reviews on yelp it was close enough to where I live that I didn't mind going to try it for take out. The place is simple but clean. The gentleman spoke English very well and was super helpful. As I am vegetarian he made sure my food was so. I waited about 10 minutes maybe 15. The food was hot and the bag felt heavy so I knew they had good portions. I ordered the spicy green beans and the the Cantonese chowmein. Both were very well done. I will definitely go back again whenever I have a craving for Chinese.
