Food 4/5 Service 4/5…read moreAmbiance 4/5 Food: I came here for a lunar New Year lunch with some co-workers. They chose the menu which was a combo deal. There were so many dishes I started losing track. LOL. I also don't know all the names of the dishes as I didn't see the menu. One of the dishes was a fried lobster. They showed the lobster to us (poor lobster) before cooking it. The lobster tasted really good but I'm not used to handling lobster in its shell. LOL. There was a pumpkin soup which I couldn't eat since it had dairy in it. Another dish was a Peking duck with rice paper wraps, cucumber & green onions. This was my favourite dish. Delicious, yummy & simple to eat. Another dish was chicken (I didn't taste that one). We also had a fried rice which was so yummy. Then there was a dish with scallops, oysters, pork & seaweed surrounding it. I tried the scallops & they were delicious. There was another duck dish but this time the duck was chopped into little pieces with some Dessert was a yogurt / jelly type of thing which I can't eat due to my dairy intolerance. Service was really great. I'm not sure if that's because I was at a table full of Chinese people though. LOL. The dishes came quickly & they just kept coming! We had tiny plates to eat from so after the lobster we got clean plates. For the fried rice we had the servers separate it into bowls for everyone. Since we couldn't finish all the food we had them wrap up the leftovers & we took it back with us. Myself & another co-worker split up the leftovers between us since no one else wanted it. Ambiance: The restaurant had some nice lunar new year decorations up. It was pretty. Located inside the Atrium on the Bay this is an easy location to get to. The location was the site of a former restaurant called Spring Rolls. It still looks the same the only thing that changed were the tables & chairs. The washrooms are downstairs in the lowest level of the restaurant. It was hard for me to get down there because my knees are really stiff & painful. It would've been nice if they had a handicap washroom on the main level. The food was delicious & service was attentive. I thought the special lunar new year meal we chose was too much food for six people. I would've been happy with dim sum. Also the washrooms being in the basement was an inconvenience for me. Those who are mobility challenged will have the same issue.

Nestled within the bustling corridors near Eaton Centre, Moon Palace is the kind of establishment…read moreone might unwittingly pass by -- and that would be a regrettable oversight. Behind its unassuming exterior lies a dining room of quiet sophistication: modern, luminous interiors with tasteful appointments that signal immediately this is no ordinary Cantonese restaurant. The dim sum programme is where Moon Palace truly distinguishes itself. Each piece arrives with a precision and generosity of filling that speaks to genuine kitchen pride -- plump dumplings, impeccably fresh shrimp, and roasted meats that carry an unmistakable depth of flavour reminiscent of Hong Kong's finest teahouses. The quality of ingredients is evident in every bite; nothing here feels like an afterthought. What deserves particular commendation is the consistency. Over multiple visits, the standard has never wavered -- a hallmark of disciplined kitchen craft that is rarer than it should be. In a neighbourhood saturated with tourist-facing options, Moon Palace maintains an unwavering commitment to authenticity and refinement. Service is attentive and gracious without being intrusive, contributing to an atmosphere that invites one to linger. I have recommended Moon Palace to friends and colleagues without hesitation, and will continue to do so. A polished gem in downtown Toronto's culinary landscape.

I thought I had reviewed this Chinese restaurant already, but turns out I haven't so far. So these…read morepics are a combination of my last two visits. Both times were for lunch, and there was a large party both times. It was also a treat for me to show for the first time my Texas-based niece and nephew one of my favourite Chinatown places in Toronto. We were seated very quickly, despite the lunch rush. Very clean tables and floors, and a well-lit area. Since there were eight of us, we got the round table with a lazy Susan. We started with the chicken and corn soup, which heated us up quickly on a chilly January day. Then the dim sun arrived in numbers, from the delectable Har Gow, the scrumptious Siu Mai, the tasty deep-fried squid tentacles, the texture of the curried cuttlefish, and the interesting mouth-feel of chicken feet. Sizzling plates of beef in black bean sauce and shrimp/scallops in a Szechuan sauce were just epic, arriving to the table in a scathing aroma that made my mouth water. We had to balance all that great protein with some savoury Gai Lan, sautéed in garlic. All in all, we arrived in cold spirits, but left with full bellies! Thanks for showing my niece and nephew one of the best establishments on Spadina!

Portions were well sized and food was super hot in temperature and stayed warm. Great place in general for all day dimsum, went at 2pm and there was no wait. Only thing I was not a fan of was the auto service charge for just a table of 3. Price wise is also on the expensive side, would expect to average $20-30/person

It holds up throughout Toronto. Seafood is a must here and they do Alaskan snow crab really well. Wagyu dish was also fantastic as was the sea cucumber. The glazed pork was good as well. Green sea bass was solid. Lamb chops were excellent. Both soups were mediocre and I would pass on those. Abalone was cold and the alcohol marination was a miss for me. Fried rice was way too dry. Service was good with a dedicated server for the private room along with support. Cool feature is their lazy Susan's can turn on their own when the server controls it.

If you're craving authentic, delicious dumplings in Toronto, Juicy Dumpling is the place to go!…read moreLocated in the heart of Chinatown on Spadina Ave, this cozy little gem offers an extensive variety of dumplings, both steamed and fried, that are filled to perfection. The pork and chive dumplings are a standout, bursting with flavor and topped with a savory soy dipping sauce. While the menu is simple, the quality of the food more than makes up for it. The atmosphere is no-frills, but don't let that fool you--the dumplings are definitely the star here. The service is quick and efficient, perfect for grabbing a bite in between exploring the bustling streets of Alexandra Park. If you're in the area and want a taste of traditional Chinese dumplings at a reasonable price, Juicy Dumpling should be at the top of your list!

Today, tried a newly renovated place for lunch (dim sum), let me tell you this, it was a real…read moredisappointment. When they provided with a table it was right next to an exterior door, with people going in and out. The was a cold draft, we even had to tell the hostess/manager, if they could provide a divider to divert the draft from hitting our table. We ordered 9 dim sum dishes, one be Roasted Pig Mixed Cold Jellyfish, which was $23.80. I had the idea that it would be a fair portion. When it came, I was shocked, it was only 6 pieces of Roasted Pig. When I spoke with the manager about the portion size, he commented "for that price it is fair". There was not apologies and walked away, nor was it written on the menu. If I had known it was only 6 pieces (size of your index and middle finger put together). I would not have ordered it. If you want to have Roasted Pig, you can get better deals else where. Also, ordered Marinated Chicken Feet for $13.98, when it came to table, it was also a disappointment, part of the chicken feet was dark in colour, not even sure if it was even edible or not. Another dim sum dish that I have order was the steamed chicken with fish maw. The chicken was okay, but there was only two small pieces of fish maw, (the size of each piece was 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch). The order 6 dim sum dishes that was order was mediocre, tasted better from other Dim Sum restaurant. When I received the bill for the meal it came out to be $119.50, they even had included the tip. They didn't even give me an option weather a tip was even worthy. I will definitely not be returning to this place. I definitely do not recommend anyone to come to this restaurant. I would consider blacklisting this restaurant. It's simply deceiving customers. 今天去一家新裝修的點心店吃午飯，真是太失望了。他們為我們安排的桌子緊鄰外門，進進出出的人絡繹不絕。冷風直吹，我們甚至得跟領位員/經理說能不能加個隔板擋風。我們點了九道點心，其中一道是烤乳豬配涼拌海蜇，價格是23.8美元。我以為分量應該挺足的。結果端上來的時候，我大吃一驚，烤乳豬隻有六塊！我跟經理說了分量的問題，他居然說「這個價錢算合理」。他既沒有道歉，也沒有在菜單上寫明，就直接走開了。如果我知道只有六塊（大概食指和中指並排那麼大），我肯定不會點這道菜。想吃烤乳豬的話，去別的地方一定能找到更划算的。我還點了13.98美元醃漬的雞爪，端上來後也很失望，雞爪有一部分顏色發黑，我甚至懷疑它能不能吃。我點的另一道點心是魚肚蒸雞，雞肉還可以，但是魚肚只有兩小塊（每塊只有半英寸見方）。我點的這六道點心味道平平，不如其他點心店的好吃。結帳時，帳單竟然高達119.50美元，還包含了小費。他們甚至都沒問我是否該給小費。我絕對不會再來這家店了。我絕對不推薦任何人來這家餐廳。我會考慮把這家餐廳封鎖。他們簡直就是在欺騙顧客。

New Century will feed a large group. Their lobster, Dungeness crab, and sea bass combo for eight…read more($798) would satisfy ten or twelve. The individual New Century slow boiled soup is hardest to share but secure some empty bowls and you can divide the hefty portion. In the winter, there's a silkiness to the piping hot consommé that sooths a dry throat and has an umami essence infused with abalone, ginseng, and pork. There's plenty to choose from in the house signature combo platter including roasted duck, soy sauce chicken, BBQ pork, pork slices, and seaweed salad. Saving my stomach for the later dishes, I had a taste of the duck (a good start with crispy skin) and BBQ pork (satisfactory and well flavoured). With the generous portion of chicken in the combo platter, the slow cooked chicken with abalone broth seemed like overkill. I've never been a huge fan of this dish that's served cold since I prefer chicken hot. Still, I understand it's the jelly layer between the skin and meat that people enjoy. And to be fair, the chicken was tender, and New Century certainly didn't skimp on the ginger and scallion oil. For those who tend to fill-up before the "main dishes", the stars of the combo arrive mid-meal. The stir-fried Vancouver crabs with silver fish in HK style spicy sauce needs to be eaten at arrival as the crunchy coating is best straight from the fryer. And despite not looking spicy, the dish has a light heat that permeates in the background. Additionally, the crab was fresh and meaty, cooked well so it remained delicately flakey. The amount of sweet and sticky sauce used in the stir-fried lobsters with scallion in Maggie sauce was well balanced, lightly covering the crustaceans. Both lobsters were substantial; even after eating many pieces, we still had plenty of leftovers. This is a long review head to Gastro World for the rest.

I came at 9:30 am and there was no special price for small, medium and large. It was all menu priced. That's a first for my dim sum experiences. 1 star for price And 3 stars all together, that's already very generous. I would caution a recommendation as I won't be back ever again

It's a change (I don't know if it's a good or bad change though) from the typical full-service dim sum experience. The food is honestly fantastic. The har gow has that perfectly thin skin you want, and everything is packed with flavour. This is easily some of the best dim sum in Toronto. That egg tart though was something else: uniquely buttery, salty, sweet, and savoury all at once. It really packs a punch in a way I can't quite explain, but you'll know what I mean when you try it. The only thing holding this back from 5 stars is the price. It's so expensive for dim sum. Still worth checking out if you're craving top-tier dim sum and don't mind paying for it.
