Food is good but the service can be lacking. There used to be a great waitress there named Peggy but she doesn't work there anymore. We have been going for years and have noticed recently that the portions of the food have substantially gone down. Would have given 5 stars if the service wasn't so hit and miss. If you want authentic chinese food this is the place to go. I highly recommend the Bird's nest with Seafood (the nest is comprised of shredded taro fried in a basket with vegetables, scallops, shrimp and squid). read more

Ok so their service is always a hit or a miss but I must say I am a native Torontonian and this is by far the best Chinese in the city! Now, every time I come back to the city, this place is on my list of restaurants to eat at. Pepper steak, beef short ribs, beef and chicken lo mein are all fantastic. As far as the appetizers go, their hot and sour soup, egg drop soup and deep fried shrimp balls are great as well. Be patient with the wait staff because the food is worth it. read more

Some of the best Chinese Food in the city hands down!!!

Very decent, authentic Chinese food. Great service. Free chicken feet soup for the entire party. Nicely updated tables/chairs. Recommend.

I thought this place was great. Needed Chinese take out on New Year's Eve and didn't know where to go. I took the first parking space i could find on Spadina and walked till i found a really busy restaurant, pledging to order take out from there. Plan worked perfectly. Took a couple of blocks to find a really busy place and saw New Sky. It was packed to over-flowing. And with cause. Ordered three dishes:Scallops with vegetables: Scallops cooked perfectly (at a time when the kitchen must have been insanely busy), Beef and broccoli. Beef tender and tasty. And seafood rice. Yum. Will definitely be back because it is a really great Chinese restaurant. However, quiet it is not. Enjoy. read more

I absolutely love this place. Really good food. I recommend the general Tao and deep fried beancurd. Just look at what other people order read more

We ordered from the Peruvian menu. The arroz chaufa had maybe 3 or 4 pieces of meat (pork) only. The tallarin saltado completely tasteless. The only good dish was the chicken Chie Jau Kay. The wantan frito had almost no meat (you need a microscope to see the meat) . It looks like a clean place. I will never come back. I wouldn't recommend it to any Peruvian, it was disappointing. read more

Preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeety good. I've been here twice now, and both times the food has been pretty good. The first time, I came with my partner and we got the lemon chicken and crispy sesame beef. Both were pretty tasty, but I was more a fan of the beef. I was pleasantly surprised with the portion size, and we had food leftover to take home. (Oh, but remember to order rice in addition) The second time I came it was with a party of 7. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food quite a bit. The scalop congee I heard was really good, as was the veg. fried rice. The one thing that people seemed not to like very much was the chicken balls. I tried a couple, and would say that personally they were okay. It was unusual, because I didnt find them bad, I just found them to be different than the chicken balls one would recieve at most places. These were harder crusted, and almost seemed like corn-meal coated. They weren't bad, but they were a bit mealy/doughy.. and just different. This was the one thing the table seemed to not be a huge fan of for the most part. Everything else everyone loved. Our server was very polite. A young girl. The service was a bit slow (we asked for water twice since I think the server forgot the first time), but it was also very busy, so it is understandable. Overall, pretty good food for a decent price and good portion. This is quickly becoming a China Town regular for me. :D read more

Fantastic food and at a reasonable price, service was great and food/drinks came very fast. Very clean and comfortable place to eat. We had sizzling beef, duck with special rice. read more

My wife went here recently with her colleagues and raved about the grouper and tofu hotpot so we bundled the kids and visited on a Wednesday night dinner. We're here for the food so decor and service aren't really that important. The latter two items I'd say were satisfactory. The place was only half full so we got seated and served quickly. What did we order? That aforementioned hotpot, clams in black bean sauce, a plate of chinese veg (you choy) and sweet and sour pork for the kids. 4 bowls of rice added and we were ready. The hotpot was very good. The fish pieces and tofu were freshly deep fried and then placed on a bed of watercress before being reheated. The sauce was exceptional--I tasted oyster sauce, orange peel and shrimp paste. We'd definitely re-order. The other dishes were fine--hot from the wok and simply made. We'll be back to try more seafood. It's our alternative to New Ho King across the street. read more

My boyfriend and I ventured down to China Town late Friday night hoping to find some life in it. We were sad to find that around 10PM China Town had started to shut down. We hadn't eaten yet, so walked until we found something that looked fitting. New Sky was a good choice. The food there was great, as well as the service. Our waiter was very nice, and funny. When I ordered the same dish as my boy friend he encouraged us to try something new. I told him to bring out a "surprise" pork dish. Good thing he did, it was delicious. I didn't notice the noise level, but my boyfriend thought it was loud. It was a wee bit slow, but the atmosphere encouraged conversation; the time passed quickly. I'm glad I got the chance to eat at New Sky. read more

Good food but horrible wait times. Waited for 10mins to sit and waited for more than 30 mins to eat. Not a good stop for Sunday lunch.

I've been living in Toronto for 9 months and this is the best Chinese food I've ever had. The dishes' flavors are all so good because the owner lived in Peru and he enriches his cuisine with the Chinese Cantonese Peruvian fusion. If u are in Lima you must visit Madame Tusane ( inc Japanese fusion) and u ll know what I m talking about ;) read more

Food took over an hour, service was beyond terrible, the waitress was impolite and got orders wrong besides forgetting to ask for our food. Food was average at best, but definitely not worth the bad experience. read more

This restaurant borders on fraud. Refused to give appetizers which were clearly indicated on lunch menu. Feigned ignorance when confronted about it. BEWARE!!!!!!! read more

Always have a meal here when we're in Toronto. Crab steamed rice and king mushrooms are a couple of favourites.

I went here around 4:30 and service was great very friendly I asked to order from the Peruvian Chinese " CHIFA " menu. And once I got the food I was impressed I have recently come back from a stay in Peru since this is where my parents are from and it truly took me back, I took some home to my parents and they loved it and said it brought them back. The waiter was great about payment and 10/10 will be coming back my guest also truly enjoyed the food and he is a picky eater. Will bring my whole family next time. read more

I don't remember exactly what we had, but spicy soup was awful, seemed as they dumbed as much red pepper and fat as they could come up with. The worst soup ever! I had pork in bean sause, mostly bones, pork bones and bean sause, and still it tasted fat. On brighter note chicken for appetizer was ok, but the rest of the meal not read more

Served me sweet and sour chicken that did not have white meat. I asked if they had served me sweet and sour pork by accident. It wasn't good. They use tiny salad shrimp in the fried rice. Not that great. read more

Great food and good service. However if you want to dine in especially with family, you better make reservations for a table at the back of the restaurant. The restaurant becomes extremely busy especially during dinner time and since the tables are so close together with very minimal space, it gets very annoying having servers serve food to other tables bumping into your chair and/or serving food over your head. Although its a good restaurant, it needs to consider its' capacity and seating plan. read more

It's been a couple of years since I've been here...the last time I thought the food was absolutely delicious. Today was a totally different experience...was there early so a busy resto was not the issue. The service was curt at best...hot & sour soup was unbalanced...more sour than hot. The crispy ginger beef was drowning in sauce and lacking in ginger...the fried chicken was bony and over-cooked. They neglected to order one of our dishes so we were just as happy to cancel it. Sadly I won't be returning. read more

The Food is always great at New Sky. Wait staff are fast and attentive - Paul is the man, seems like he has been my server every time for years. Love the chowmein noodles, they are always the right amount of crispy. The spicy crispy chicken was good tonight, first time trying that one, however the crispy beef was definitely the table favourite. Crispy.....seems to be the texture of the day for me. read more

Ordered BBQ Pork Fried Rice (叉烧炒饭) for $9.50 before tax, came with free soup (wintergourd pork ribs soup) and free taro dessert! Good service, extremely satiated! read more

Don't come here for the service. When there's a lineup, you can wait at the door forever, no one will come out. They'll just seat the budders who push their way in. They don't even try to hide that Chinese guests are getting preferential treatment. Often you'll have to ask 3 times and you'll basically be finished your meal before you get your rice. And some of the wait staff act like they're doing you a huge favour. But the food is really good, as evidenced by how consistently busy it is. The General Tao chicken is unlike any other, and that keeps me coming back. read more

I don't know about the Peruvian menu items, but the Chinese menu items are delicious and reasonably priced, the ladies here always have a smile on there faces and treat you well. read more

Ok I discovered this restaurant two years ago. It was great and affordable with great food. Fast forward and well, food is still okay but prices have been jacked up. Service is not great and...was just there and there we were eating and suddenly witnessed a six legged creature strolling on the wall - yes a ROACH! Sorry but I'm not fond of roaches. Funny thing is we had tons of leftovers as everyone basically lost their appetite. Anyway food is fine but price increase and roach forces me to rate New Sky a 3. read more

Used to eat here every few months, but no more. The black beaned razor clams we ordered had so much gravel in them it was rediculous. Imagine a meattube full of gravel. I should have spat the whole thing out because every time you bite down on the gravel you make smaller gravel fragments. Tasted like what I imagine the bottom of a fish tank would taste like. Never again. read more

I have been a fan of this restaurant for several years and I'm surprised I haven't written a review yet! Service is polite and quick and the food is always great. Our go-to menu: lobster with green onion and ginger, spicy fried squid, and seafood Cantonese chow mein. Perfect for dinner or a late night meal. Paul is usually our server and he rocks! read more

So we arrived at 7:00, and ordered . It's been 49 minutes now. And nothing has arrived. So I guess I can't comment on the food as of yet.

I was introduced to New Sky a couple of years ago and I'm so glad I was. There's something about this food that makes me eat and eat it. Even leftovers taste great and will keep me coming back for more. Highly recommend it to anyone read more

I would give a zero if I could.. The food like absolute shit. Flavourless and greasy (I don't even get how that's possible). Staple dishes such as century egg and pork congee and the shanghai fried noodles should be hard to fuck up. Nope, managed to make it taste horrible as well.. read more

I was craving Chinese Fried Rice so we stopped in to New Sky at ~3pm on a Saturday afternoon. The Chicken Fried Rice was OK (bit bland), the Sizzling Chili Chicken Hot Plate good (interesting crispy chip-like noodles as a base) and the Calamari was excellent (very tasty). Service was above average. Wait for food was slightly longer than normal but it was a lazy afternoon for all. I'm still searching for a good Chinese Fried Rice but hear that Swatow Restaurant should be my next stop. read more

Good food, - had sizzling beef w ginger and some vegetables- clean restaurant, good and friendly service. I will come back.

We came at a busy time apparently..all tables were full at 8pm on a Friday night. Stumbled into this place mistaking it for another one I couldn't remember the name of that was awesome last time we were here. Anyhow, we got in and shortly after were seated. It took them quite a while to come back to our table after that to get us some water and take our orders. Luckily the kids food came out rather quickly but, I have to say, our food came out staggered and took quite some time to arrive. My daughter had egg drop soup which was a bit more watery than any I've had but, maybe more 'authentic'? Then, the kids shared some chicken ball(s) which were actually pretty awesome. The batter on them reminded me of corn dog batter, or maybe even like hush puppies, slightly sweet and moist breading...they were actually quite good. We had the fried tofu which looked like small round fried discs but, the tofu was very creamy and almost looked like custard..I thought it was quite good and my girlfriend loved it (we were starving by then). We also had a steamed shrimp dumpling app that was o-k compared to others I have had. When our main course came out maybe an hour or so later..we had the seafood hotpot with bean curd...it was awesome!! The seafood was a great mix of shrimp, octopus (calamari), fish, bok choy, mushrooms all mixed with a light sauce that was spectacular. Great meal that didn't sit heavy in your stomach and was just enough for two people. Anyhow, I would give the food 4 stars and the service 3. read more

Chef's Special Chili Chicken on a hot plate...yummmm...the chicken is grilled and sufficiently hot and comes with crunchy fried noodles that add texture! read more

Horrible service. Takes forever to get simple dishes. They serve all delivery before sitting down customer. Waste of time

They use to be good, but today it's just horrible the ginger orange beef is just way too salty and it has no orange flavor just a mouth full of soy sauce beef. The salted chicken fried rice is soggy, which is not suppose to be for a fried rice they messed up on the most basic fried rice that is why I am giving 1 star. read more

My boyfriend and I come here once every couple weeks. We love this place. They are very reasonably priced and have good service. Although most of the servers dont speak too much english they are polite and know enough to have a conversation. The food is incredible and it's always busy. They so have a small dining room but we have always gotten a seat even if they have to make you a table at the back. We will continue to come back here for many years to come. read more

Good Canadian Chinese food!! I hear it has great authentic Chinese food as well! Very reasonably priced and excellent food!

A Chinatown classic. Open late and very dependable. Crispy beef and Sizzling chilli chicken (aka confetti chicken) are favourites. Service is fast and staff are helpful. Have been here multiple times and will continue to in the future read more
