    New Century Restaurant - Spare Ribs with Taro in Black Bean Sauce

    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.

    Very good dim sum! Super large restaurant with huge screen TVs. Great friendly service. Definitely…read morewill come back!

We came in and ordered quite a few dishes to share, and I have to say -- I was genuinely impressed. I usually find some dishes stand out while others are just okay, but here we enjoyed almost everything we tried. The portions are huge, so it's perfect if you're coming with family or a group of friends. They have all-day dim sum, which is such a plus because it's much easier when you're planning around kids. The vibe is a nice mix of traditional Chinese cuisine with a more modern restaurant feel. It's comfortable, spacious, and they have highchairs and booster seats available for little ones. Parking can be a bit tricky since it's in an older Toronto area, but there is paid parking nearby and streetcar access is convenient. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you're craving dim sum and want a family-friendly option! Would come back for: sharing more dishes, family meals, and weekend food outings. because he is.

Steamed to order. Of course some items ran out already but the core items still available. Everything came out great. Service was good . Upstairs is a karaoke and people were having a great time, no wonder they allow patrons come to the restaurant so late.

And it was popping; lots of people and smiles. Staff was very friendly. The young lady in, what looked like, a cheerleading outfit had great energy. We had tea, ducks' feet and pork dumplings. Absolutely perfect. We shall return.

Food (2.75/5) - extensive selection of 50 or so dim sum items to choose from. - Har Gow (Shrimp Dumplings) - pretty standard dish and was fine. - Cheung Fun (Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll) - was pretty weak. The umami soy sauce lacked flavour and the roll was a bit chalky. - Beef Short Ribs - were not good at all. Lots of gristle, bone and fat with little meat. Lacking flavour as well. - Baked Egg Tarts - average overall... not flaky enough and bit dry... custard filling was average. Service (3.5/5) - they were pretty quick with getting the order but was average turnaround on getting the order. Direct to the point order, bill, etc. which is common with these places. Atmosphere (3.75/5) - fair amount of tables and the overall decor and furnishings are fine and not aged. Overall (3.25/5) - an option if you are looking for an all day dimsum place off-times however found the food disappointing and will not repeat.

Just about…read moreeverything is superb, my favorites from the food menu was the lobster & sliced beef & ox tongue in chili sauce. I got an old fashioned and it was extremely smooth with a good taste. All the flavors are balanced & delicate yet lingers, stimulating my appetite to desire more. Service is extremely on point, everyone is warm & attentive, extremely attentive I'd say. One waiter telegraphed where I was going to walk, stepped back & apologized before I even noticed. I was pleasantly surprised at the attentiveness. Ambiance is upscale yet cozy, with jazz in the background. Perfect for family dinners & also date nights. The restrooms are extremely nice, resembling that of hotels. Honestly this has been the best chinese spot I've dined at, the only complaint I would have is that there is not an LA location.

Service was great, and so was the food. They offer quite authentic Chinese dishes alongside some more Westernized Chinese options. Either way, portions are generous, so maybe skip a side or share one. Prices are more than reasonable. We could even bring our own bottle of wine for a corkage fee of CAD 25 -- a nice touch. The one downside -- the menu offers a staggering 200-ish dishes, so be ready to make a decision. But this is definitely a place worth visiting in St. Catharines.
