UPDATE: Macey’s operators have decided to keep the restaurant open for now.
All good things must come to an end.
A beloved Chinese restaurant that occupies a busy spot on Burnhamthorpe Rd., just down the street from Square One, is officially closing its doors on Feb. 27.
It served diners for 25 years–which is basically a lifetime in the rough and tumble restaurant industry.
A Macey’s representative confirmed the closure with insauga.com last week.
Macey’s has always been a staple on our Top 5 Under the Radar Chinese restaurants list. Easily recognizable because of its prime Burnhamthorpe and Mavis location, Macey’s is best known for serving some of the city’s most delicious Chinese food.
The interior was often said to look a little old school and worn down — but we always told people to avoid judging this book by its cover. The food was good, and the menu boasted a huge selection of the Asian noodles, as well as traditional Cantonese-style dishes at very reasonable prices.
