    My friend had a rehearsal dinner here. I forgot how many courses it was, but it was nicely done. Everything was pre-portioned out and plated to serve individually, which was nice for a big party. No mess and no fussing around with the lazy Susan. Food-wise everything was tasty. A little bit Westernized but that's good for my taste. The Peking duck was good and bonus points for not having to assemble it on my own. I also like the orange shrimp and stir fry crab dishes. Service was good. Overall a little Westernized, but I'm a fan.

    This is their 4th location. The soft opening was 2023-09-02. It is a Chinese fine dining restaurant. The food is fresh and tasty. The interior is nice and the table setting is nice. There is street level seating and a larger seating area half a floor down. There is even a wheelchair elevator to go down. There is a regular menu (most are $25 to $40), lunch specials (opening until 16:00), and a dim sum menu (most are $8 to $11). We came for dim sum. There is a sheet where you indicate which dishes you want. We ordered the following: 1. Steamed Spinach & Shrimp Dumpling ($11). 2. Steamed Beef Tripe in Ginger ($11). 3. Pan-Fried Onion Pancake ($8). 4. Deep Fried Squid Tentacles ($11). 5. Pan Fried Chicken Dumpling ($10). 6. Seafood Combination with Snow Peas ($18). This is a lunch special. 7. Tea ($2) x 2. The dishes come out relatively quickly. The service was very attentive. The octopus in the Seafood Combination was tough. The shrimp and scallops were large and good. The octopus in the Deep Fried Squid was good. The Spinach and Shrimp Dumpling were large and tasty. My son ate the entire Chicken Dumpling and Onion Pancake, so I didn't get to try any. Obviously, he liked them. There is 10% off for takeout. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female washrooms and a third one, which is gender-neutral and wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2023-290

    I came here with my family on the first night of their soft opening tonight :) Food was delicious, and service was friendly and attentive. The decor was warm and elegant, tables were nicely spaced out, and the seats were so comfortable! We ordered the whole Peking Duck, Lamb on Sizzling Plate, Sweet & Sour Pork, Home style Vermicelli, and some veggies. We really appreciate that the kitchen was flexible re: special requests. We ordered the home style vermicelli (off menu) since we can't eat the spicy Singaporean style vermicelli, which was on the menu. 好有穫氣, you can literally hear the wok going at it in the kitchen = you know the food is good/lit We are coming back again in 2 about weeks to celebrate a birthday, and we hope to try more items (especially the seafood). Plus, they have dim sum options too. So excited that Pearl Yorkville is now in the neighbourhood, welcome!

    I actually found this place because the front desk agent at the anndore hotel recommended it, then I saw that one of my elite friends on Yelp also reviewed it well so I decided to give it a shot. I Can say that i was not disappointed. The food was all delicious! The fried octopus was almost going to be tuff and chewy though that's one critique I'll give, but it was soft enough to still be delicious and palatable, they can improve a little on the cooking time and make it a little softer. But it didn't stop me from enjoying this dish, the breading also has good flavor that it was fried in. The general tso's chicken was also great, flavor was on point, only critique I have about it is the vegetables were a bit raw still, but I very much enjoyed the meal. The chicken fried rice was really good, the flavor was excellent, the rice was cooked to perfection, I have no feedback for this dish besides good things. The green beans were sooooo good, the flavor was incredible. I inhaled this side dish it was the favorite part of my dining experience, I was licking the plate after I finished it. Lastly, finally a place that gives you a discount to pick up your food! I think that's a great incentive to get myself off the couch and go pick up the food and bring it home. Also you miss out on all the ambiance of eating out, and they save labor cost, so it's a super fair win win for everyone. They give you a 10% discount for pick up orders. I will be coming back, and highly recommend this to anyone!

    First authentic dim sum restaurant near bloor and Yonge. Great selection with reasonable price. Must try the stuffed chicken wings and Hargow plus special label wine to pair with the meal. Private room available with cheap parking downstairs. Walking distance to Yonge station.

    I wasn't expecting much as have tried the harbor front location a few times to middling results and with the closure of Crown Princess unless one can venture out to the suburbs I have given on this type of food. This place popped up recently and is a walking distance (accessible as well which was needed for this dinner). The place was packed for a Sunday early dinner. There are two dinning areas. We sat in the front as it was easier, the back area which I just peaked at is large and is also accessible with an elevator. I didn't get to choose the menu so here is a play by play Chicken Corn Soup (decent) Crab claw (just like there original location serviceable) lacks the crunch on the outside that's usually achieved with panko. Eggplant in black bean sauce. Decent. Chicken Chow Mein (run of a mill IMO) Peking Style Shrimp (Good) Sizzling plate chicken (I think black bean) This spot has better food than the original IMO. Food was a bit greasy. Though with the dearth of decent spots for this cuisine this will be an OK alternate.

    Only if the food was a little hotter. The soup was fine. Everything else needs to be hotter. It is Chinese food after all. Not like it should be sitting around in the kitchen before it's served. I found this to be the same issue at the Harbourfront location.

    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.

    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.

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!

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。

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.
