Pork filled beancurd roll (3 per order)
Amy Y.

Been curious about this place for a while and after getting a fairly positive review from friends we decided to give it a try. Located in a strip mall at Bayview and Hwy 7 the menu is all dim sum in a more casual environment. You are pointed to a table and tea is brought to you with a paper menu and pencil where you mark off your choices. From here is where there are differences from a more traditional dim sum business. Tea and water refills and condiments are self serve at the counter and there is a good selection. Extra cups are available so in addition to the tea you can also refill on hot water, cold water and hot soya milk which was clearly a popular item. It's served in a thermos jug and 2 were put out and within 15 minutes, 1 was emptied out. Quality of dim sum is just okay, as is the flavour. They have clay pot rice and the portion is on the small side but some good options. In addition to dim sum there is also a small selection of fried noodle Prices and service are decent. Most dim sum are $5.50 each. A 10% tip is automatically added to the bill. They close at 4 during the week so this really is just a lunch/dim sum place. If you want dim sum but also want a quick lunch this might be the place to go.

I decided to try a new Dim Sum spot and choose this place. They have all day Dim Sum from 9am to 9pm. The ambiance is unlike your typical Dim Sum restaurant. It was very casual and they do not charge a tea fee that other dim sum restaurants likely charges. However, the service is mostly self service. They have a self service area with sauces, tea and hot soy milk. Yes that is correct the soy milk was complimentary as well! And it was very good with just the right amount of sweetness. I ordered 6 different dim sums and most of them came out piping hot and fresh. The stand outs for me was definitely the Har Gow and Pineapple bun. The Har Gow was big, plump and juicy. They did not skimp out on the shrimp. The Pineapple bun was also quite big and crispy on the outside. I also tried their signature matcha crispy shrimp rice roll and thought it was mediocre. It did not have much matcha flavor and the shrimp was much smaller compared to the ones in the Har Gow. The Siu Mai was the only one I didn't really like. They were small and not bouncy/springy. Overall, this is a pretty good dim sum restaurant when you want dim sum outside of traditional hours. It's also important to note they charge a mandatory 10% tip. However, they charge the tip before tax which is great. Too many restaurant charge tip after taxes. The prices are also really reasonable!

New style of dim sum! Sister company to the other Star restaurants (including the one next door). Lots of variety and classic dim sum dishes ordered on the app or by paper. Self service hot or cold water and condiments. Specialty tea is not included but it can be purchased at $6 a pot. Regular tea or water is available at self service counter. BBQ items were fresh and could be purchased to go at the counter. Monday to Friday all one price. Service was good. Restaurant was bright and clean. They could space out the tables a bit though. All the dim sum came quick and piping hot. Overall very satisfied with my dim sum experience here.

Decent low key dim sum spot. They offer some unique items such as matcha salted egg yolk bun, and vegetarian tofu skin roll. The restaurant itself isn't too big compared to other dim sum spots. Its a casual dim sum spot with free self serve tea. There was also soya milk on the Saturday we went.

Spinach and shrimp dumpling.

Very nice experience here for dine in. I've been here b4 for takeout and I decided to come for dine-in on this occasion. At first, I didn't expect much and it was not on my list of go-to dim sum places. But I thoroughly enjoyed the food, the service and overall cleanliness of this establishment. I will definitely be back for more. The restaurant was very clean ( look at the place setting ). The food was very tasty. I ordered the sui mai and spinach shrimp dumpling. Both were great The price is very very reasonable as all items were $5.50 s,m,l. And there were many options at that price not like other restaurants that make usual items XL so it is not the special price. Service was amazing. I was seated promptly, given tea right away (even though refill is self serve) , and told the menu is in the QR code on the table. It was pretty busy for 10:00 am so you see they are doing something right. It was definitely right in my book. I wholeheartedly recommend "Asian Queen" for all yelpers and hope to see you there.

Kept seeing this place when I went to Loblaws so decided to give it a try. We went during the week just after lunch and it was still a bit busy. We were able to get the last table. Tables did free up more as the time went on. Not a huge place. All the S, M, and L dishes are $5.50 all day which is unusual these days. The serving portions were good. The dishes were hot when they came to the table. The quality was OK - nothing exceptional, but good enough. Some could use a bit more flavour like the tripe and har gow. The shrimp roll was a bit on the thicker side. If want a dim sum and don't want to pay through your teeth, then this place is just fine. Service was fine also.

Tripe and shrimp wrap

It was bigger tham expected portion sizes. It's self serve tea. Quite small so you might have to wait average dish was $5-$8 depending. 3 people 9 dishes $62 Clean and friendly staff

Short ribs and chicken feet on rice
Cynthia Y.

A go to for all day dim sum. Even better on weeknights with promo of 5.50$ s/m/l dim sums. Food is decent and piping hot from steamer. This restaurant is semi- table service and self-service. Self service for sauces and drinks, staff will also help you for your first rounds of tea and water. On weekends, sometimes there are special additions for free, like hot soy milk today at the drinks station. Busy little place, good for small-medium groups. There are large groups of like a dozen ppl, but may have to wait a while and they will make long connected table.

Outstanding and exceptional experience Every dish is unique and delicious you will be so full by the end of the dinner.

Shrimp Dumplings

Great dim sum spot serving yam cha till 9PM daily. You can order both by the traditional paper order sheet or conveniently through their online system. All the dim sum were freshly made, served hot, and tasted delicious. They also have a self-serve station for sauces and tea, which is super convenient. Satisfying dim sum experience

Shrimp rice roll
Vonny W.

Two out of our party of six arrived first just before 11 am and there so happened to be a table, fitting for six, by the door that just cleared up when they walked in without anyone else in front. The staff didn't want to give us the table because they said our whole party wasn't present. After some back and forth, and the promise to order dim sum ASAP (since it takes time to prepare anyways and the other four members were just 5 minutes away), they finally agreed to seat us. This started off our experience poorly as it wasn't like there was another party of six present to be seated, etc. From Monday to Friday, all day (9 am to 9 pm), this joint offers their S/M/L items for $5.25. They also don't charge for tea due to the self-serve set up they have, whereby they serve you your first cup but refills require you to go to their station, which also has cold water and condiments such as hot sauces. Overall, the food was good but some dishes were a little overcooked/over-steamed making them a little softer than usual. My grandparents who have been here before said this is not usually the case so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt but either way, it wasn't bad by any means. The siu mai, har gow, and other dumplings had a good chew to them with a good amount of filling. The curry cuttlefish was again, softer, but had good flavor. The congee was a good consistency and flavorful without being too salty and didn't leave you thirsty. I personally really liked the mango mochi which was soft and chewy, with a filling of real fruit and cream. The "most disappointing" was the BBQ pork rice only because there was a lot of rice compared to toppings of pork and choy. However, the leanness of the BBQ pork was perfect without being dry. The shrimp rice rolls were also a little underwhelming. Again, service is minimal due to the nature of their setup. But the servers do bring the food and clear empty baskets and plates. They were very fast when it came to clearing tables but I felt it was because they're so busy that they want to turnover tables as soon as possible. During our stay, I would say 11:30 am was when they had the biggest rush and wait for tables. Even though our family said many thank yous, the employees weren't very responsive. The place is new so it is quite clean and the decor looks nice. Seating was actually quite comfortable because of the chairs, but I find long rectangular tables are difficult when it comes to dim sum since it is hard to puzzle out the dishes due to space and makes it harder for sharing as one end of the table can never reach the items on the other end. They don't really have many circle tables, minus a few small ones for 2-3 people. Overall, you can see there's lots of pros and cons but their affordability, decent food, and cleanliness makes this spot one to put on the "frequent list". Service is not their main selling point so I didn't expect much, just as it seems they do not expect much in tips.

They have a grand opening special where's it's $5.25 for S, M, L. The food was very mediocre though. The congee was flavourless, the buns were burnt and the har gow were falling apart. There's no tea cost per person, but it's $6 for a teapot. As the waitress said, all condiment and water refill is self serve because they don't charge a tea cost. It's not very good for large groups because all their tables are rectangular, not rounds. It was a good deal given their grand opening special but I would not go back, especially once the promo is over.

Interesting place, relatively new restaurant serving dim sum all day. If you don't like dim sum, then Markham is not the right place for you, Timmie's right next door. Brightly lit modern decor, no booth seating just tables and chairs. Self service water and condiment counter All dim sum dishes appeared to be made to order, arrived table hot and fresh tasting. Beef balls had nice rough texture with a slight hint of orange peel essence. Steamed dumplings contained firm chopped shrimp and vegs Bean curd had a good ratio of skin to veg,/mushrooms Chicken feet cooked well but I found the flavoring lacking, lol, since when did I become a chicken feet connesieur. For a new restaurant, the flavors and freshness of their dimsum was unexpected. Good soft opening prices which will surely increase in the near future so throw those Timmie's out the window and give them a try.

Wonderful Dim Sum and serve!! Best to go during the week - open 9am-9pm. Not overly busy on a weekday brunch and calm atmosphere.

My review is based on comparison to dim sum place in nyc. Price is good, and dim sum are huge…read more My favorite is the bbq roast pork hor fun. $15 CAD. A lot of meat. Roast pork are above average, but it is only like $10 USD. My wife loves the squid, kids love the fried dumpling. Fried dumpling are huge, with 3 shrimp inside, well pan fried. Squab is only 20 CAD. Shrimp har gow is the biggest i seen and with a shrimp. My least favorite is siu mai. It is huge but it is a bit mushy. Waiter is friendly. He was asking us where we came from since he doesnt recognize the Chase credit card. Overall, a great experience.

Service was amazing Food and price not so much…read moreThe service deserves 4 stars, it was friendly, courteous and efficient. They must have filled my 2 teapots 4-5 times even if it was not needed. Also, they replaced my plate which had bones. A sight never seen at dim sum. Everyone smiled and was very polite. But The food, the food was just average, average at best Nothing spectacular however not horrible. Food deserves 2 stars The topper is the price. 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

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!

Skyview offered a small, medium and large dim sum special at $5.80 if paying cash. Whereas the One Fusion did not. The food quality was pretty much the same. It's your average dim sum. Absolutely nothing spectacular. No special dishes to write home about. Nonetheless if looking for a bargain and relatively decent dim sum. Then a recommendation is in order.

Service after being seated was a bit slow but was to be expected given how busy they were. Place was packed. Food we ordered: Beef balls - ok. Not super flavourful but nice texture. Oddly enough we had to ask for the Worcestershire sauce. It wasn't served with the dish as normally expected. 3.5/5. Rice rolls with shrimp - the rice rolls were a bit too wet and mushy. Shrimp and veg filling were nice. 3.5/5. Rice rolls with cumin lamb - less common version of this. Sadly not much lamb, cost more for same portion size as other rice rolls, too much cumin and celery. And still too mushy. 2/5. Giant dumpling in soup - ok. Nothing bad, nothing amazing. Pretty standard. 3.5/5. Bbq pork with noodles in soup - the pork was excellent. We asked for a lean cut and it was lean but still very tender with a nice char. The noodles were slightly overdone. 4/5. Fried pigeon - a bit overcooked and dry. 3/5. In terms of value, the bbq pork with noodles was a giant portion and great lunch special deal at $15. Feeds 2 easily. Highly recommend. The dim sum dishes varied, typically just under $10 each. Pretty average pricing and mediocre quality. The pigeon was $20 but not done well. Tea was $2.50 per head which imo is too high for a place like this. The restaurant itself has the typical tacky decor with a rainbow of colours and lighting found in Chinese banquet restaurants of this vintage. It was clean and comfortable enough. A bit run down but fine. Plenty of free parking out front. Overall, solid average with an exceptionally good lunch time bbq pork noodle deal for value.
