New Ho King in Toronto

Very nice staff. Was given a free bottle of water with my takeout order, an unexpected surprise. Will likely return.

Taste good but everything was salty

Classic spot to go to for Chinese after a night out.

Service here is always good. The food is always good. Highly recommend. Ussually gets more crowded at night time on the weekend, and service is rush rush.

That calamari will end a war. Seasoned and very tasty. The waiters were very attentive too

I havent been here since before the rap beef. Still fantastic food. Definitely busier than it used to be, so thats nice to see.

Great food, below average service

My go to.

This place was buzzing late at night and we really enjoyed the food. The service was mediocre, but the food makes it worth it.

Woe everything about this place was amazing. Went there while on Vaca really because of K-dot, just wanted to take a picture in front of the restaurant wasnt expecting the food to be nearly as good as it was or the establishment to be as nice. Parking: We parked around the corner

Busy on a holiday. Loved the food space is tight with limited time to eat.

Went here for a going away party and the food was fire. Ambiance was also good with the hip hop.

Highly recommended. Service is fast food is great. Will definitely go back again and again

The best wings, and service! Never had a complaint!

Classic Cantonese cuisine. Portions are large for the price. Taste is definitely authentic, but could be improved. The service might be a bit lacking, with the bill being handed to you if you have stayed a bit too long, or eat too slow. Lighting is on the dim side for atmosphere, with exposed brick walls. There is a 1st floor with tables that fit max 4 people and a floor 1.5 with large round tables fitting around 8 or so. Washroom in the basement is cramped, wet and smelly. All in all, authentic experience, with all its caveats for a reasonable price in Chinatown.

Must try the beef fried rice. Too good.

The food was good. But I was also very hungry. It tasted good after being in my fridge too, so I will be going back.

WARNING :Went here for a special occasion. My friend had a reservation for 7 of us. One of my friends bit into a fairly big METAL rotisserie PIN that was INSIDE the chicken ball. We all immediately lost our appetites. My friend showed the waitress (it still had chicken attached to it). They asked would you like us to take the chicken balls away?. They then brought us 7 cans of drinks as compensation and offered us only 15 percent off the meal. The manager never even came out to apologize. If it were me who bit into it Id have never paid for any of it. Shes shy and was traumatized afterwards. That could have caused major issues if she had swallowed a pin or chipped her tooth! Never ever coming back to this place for fear theyre trying to kill us.

Great quality chinese food

Came for takeout. It had been a long time since I was here. The quality of food is still good. Huge portions compared with other restaurants. 10% off if you pay cash. Individual containers come in plastic bags. Great idea. No spillage in the big bag. Would visit restaurant again in future. Too bad they dont open for lunch now.

Really delicious and authentic Chinese food!!

I called and ordered fried rice and shrimps. I drove all the way from North York to here to pick up my food. I got to the store they don t have my food so I told the man how come I take them with an hour to get here how come my food is not ready they don t have the order I clearly ordered from the man on the phone and he just repeated me my order and I said OK yes that s my order but he says it s not there. I don t know what to do so I said OK no problem I can t re-order again and wait again another 20 minutes for my meal I left that store and went next-door to them and purchase delicious food. It s called Canton Chilli restaurant it s such a nice restaurant they are polite. Have manners catering to the customers and very polite and the food is delicious it s right beside her new Ho king. I would not recommend new Ho King. They don t have a good customer service. They will take your order then pretend that they did not take your order making come all the way beer waste your time and then tell you, so what we don t have your order maybe you can order again, so clearly they don t value their customers.. but the chill restaurant is really chill and they respect and valued customers

The reviews seem generously high from our experience. The orange duck was extremely overcooked. It was a dry chewy jerky like meat. The garlic box choy tadted ok, but it was just the whole baby boy choy un prepped and cooked as is. It was a little difficult to eat without cutting utensils. They didnt bring us water. They force a hefty gratuity on you. They charge fees for using cards.

We ordered the orange duck, fried rice, and bok choy. Duck was terrible and extremely overcooked. Bok choy was undercooked and hard to eat. Rice was good. Food came out quickly. Waitress didn t bring us water until halfway through the meal when I finally asked. They added 20% gratuity and another charge since we didn t pay in cash. Even without that it felt very overpriced. I wouldn t return.

I have not had food so bad in such a long time. Avoid this place at all costs, even if it means eating at a nearby fast food place late at night. We ordered the general tso chicken chow mein, orange chicken, beef fried rice and vegetables with fried tofu. The chicken was overcooked on both dishes, extremely artificial sweet tasting and lacked any depth. The chow mein did not have any vegetables, it was just dry, poorly sauced chicken and noodles. The vegetables we did order, were under seasoned, over cooked and cut into enormous chunks. The food was honestly so horrible. Do not waste your money here. FYI, there is a 75 cent - 99 cent charge for paying by cards. They also include gratuity in the receipt (so dont tip twice!).

General Tao on chicken fried rice combo is better than a happy ending massage from one of the waitresses

Best Chinese food in Toronto. Love this place. I love the crispy lemon chicken, BBQ pork fried rice and sezchuan mixed vegetables. Whatever your favorites are this place knows how to make them fresh and tasty. I usually order in but happened to be on Spadina and dropped in with a friend for an early dinner. We were the only ones there it was that early. Nevertheless the food was fantastic, service was OK, the place itself is ok also. Youre really there for the food.

Make sure you check the receipt. They automatically charge you for gratuity, and wont tell you. The machine will also ask you to add a tip. The food was super delicious, the service not so good.

Super reasonably priced, large portions (great for sharing), and their chicken wings are AMAZING. Could be best in Toronto.

Completely non authentic garbage extremely rude waitress and waiter. The dishes were either saturated in oil, bland or over cooked. If you never had authentic Chinese cuisine then come here otherwise go to markham/scarborough where it s done properly. Also fire your rude staff!

The chilly oil was old and stale. The salt n pepper holder looked like it has never been cleaned. The food tasted like it was fried in dirty oil. The food was mediocre. The vibe inside was nice. Food came out fairly quickly. Decently priced.

Let me start by saying the food is fantastic and the prices very reasonable. My issue with this place along with many spots in China town is cleanliness. Why is everything so nasty? Like every surface is dirty. The bathrooms are atrocious.For years I believed this was a cultural thing but then I visited China town in Montreal and everything was meticulously clean in every restaurant. Heres a suggestion... Add a buck to every dish and hire somebody to clean. Clean the tables, the condiments, the washrooms (may as well add some paper towel / soap dispensers will your at it) floors, walls etc. Picture attached to demonstrate the median level of nastiness I experienced.

Bad service bad food

Very poor service but food is great!

I ate here after a long night in the area, they re open late which is nice and the food comes out really fast. Beef satay was so good. They add gratuity without telling you

Placed an online order and they missed most of the item

Amazing food

time waste and even the manager is careless to serve customers

Pretty gross food and not good service

Sold me bad chicken that made me sick

I recently dined at an outstanding Chinese restaurant that truly deserves a 5-star review. From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance was inviting, adorned with elegant decor that exuded a mix of modernity and traditional Chinese elements. The menu offered a delightful array of dishes, showcasing the chefs expertise in crafting authentic flavors. The Peking duck was a standout, with perfectly crispy skin and succulent meat, served with thin pancakes and a rich hoisin sauce. Each bite was a symphony of flavors that left a lasting impression. The staffs attentive and friendly service added to the overall dining experience. They were knowledgeable about the menu, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring that every aspect of our meal was enjoyable. The pace of service was impeccable, allowing us to savor each course without feeling rushed. Portion sizes were generous, offering great value for the quality of the food. The attention to detail in presentation reflected the chefs dedication to culinary excellence. The seafood dishes, such as the steamed fish with ginger and scallions, showcased the freshness of the ingredients. Moreover, the restaurant maintained a clean and hygienic environment, contributing to a sense of comfort and well-being. The attention to COVID-19 safety measures was particularly commendable, reassuring patrons about their health and safety. In conclusion, this Chinese restaurant provides a superb dining experience, blending exceptional cuisine, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. It has earned its 5-star rating through a commitment to culinary excellence and a dedication to customer satisfaction. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking an unforgettable Chinese dining experience.

Very good Asian restaurant. Many dishes are offered on the menu. I appreciated the provision of the doggybag at the end of the meal with the bill. It allowed me to continue enjoying myself at home. The tip is already on the bill. Accepts card and cash without any problem. If you pay by card you will need to add 90cts (it is marked.)

This is absolutly disgusting. These noodles are burnt and hard and crunchy and inordered chow mein. Never order and their employess are very rude and dont speak english.

We went here after the Dave Chappelle show and ordered the vegetarian fried rice, vegetarian spring rolls and deep fried tofu with sweet and sour sauce. The tofu was horrible, tasteless and poorly cooked. We had a bite and couldnt eat it. I asked for it to be removed from our bill since we didnt like it but they wouldnt. Do not order this item from the menu.

3.5. Classic Chinese spot with good late night food. The spicy, crispy beef is the best. Get the shrimp dumplings instead of the pork. The black bean tofu/ eggplant is classic and great.

Loved the food! I want it again! It was definitely cool that (I spoke vietnamese) and they didnt turn me away! I wasnt trying to be offensive, but this place is nice enough that I wanted to improve and learn cantonese/mandarin. Its busy buusy, but rest assured youre getting quality Chinese food. Combination fried rice with pepper shrimp and sweet & sour pork?! BBQ pork?! Theyre all slapping your belly...in a great way

We LOVE New Ho King! My husband has been coming here since before we were together (over a decade ago) and we recently revisited and it is still the same deliciousness! New space but same great food. We brought our 2 kids and ordered the fried calamari, egg rolls, veggie c mein, veggie fried rice, fried chicken wings, hunan tofu (the best!!), and garlic Chinese broccoli. Everything was so amazing and fresh, and delicious and generous portions. The service was so fast my kids couldn t believe how fast the order came! The service was amazing. Everyone was sooo nice and friendly and attentive. We also noticed that the other patrons all seemed like regulars not surprising at all! It was such a great Friday night out. We will definitely come many more times!

Can t even give this place a one star. The worst customer service I have ever experienced. Waiter snatched my credit card from my hand, looking at all of my credit card details and spoke to their customers in a condescending way. We asked for her to give us a minute to decide how to pay and she got mad at us that the restaurant is closing despite the fact that it was not closing time (30+ minutes left). Never come to this place, waste of your time and money. We left this place with the worst restaurant experience ever.

Rudest waiter you will probably encounter, overpriced mid food, disgusting unsanitary restaurant. Never coming back again.

Enjoyed a late night chicken fried rice.

Little pricy, but decent food and quantity.

Late night dining, hands down the best Chinese meal I ve ever had, plating is generous, menu is good sized and pricing is really fair considering the flavors and techniques that are on the food being served here

Spicy fried calamari you gotta try!!

I have visited this restaurant several times. The food is very good, delicious, the attention is fast

Great food. I loved the deep fried squid. The service was good too. Just note that they auto add gratuity to your bill.

Was very disappointed especially the won ton waste of money time and food

At New Ho King I always order the beef and green peppers with black bean sauce on a crispy noodle. Something about the crunch of crispy noodle combined with the black bean sauce intertwined with beef and peppers.. dang makes my mouth water. Just make sure you ask for a light drizzle of the black bean sauce so you still get the crunch of the noodle.

The BEST Chinese food spot in Toronto.

Why are the ratings so low? That was my first inclination Then I thought maybe that s for the best it will make getting a table easy forever It s good

An old school establishment in Chinatown, we enjoy it when we go to Spadina The BBQ pork is tender and the portions are reasonable

Favourite restaurant on the Spadina strip. General tao chicken and beef with black bean sauce forever and ever

I went to eat here and they had a mandatory 20% tip on the bill. We were a group of 5 so maybe because we were that big of a group but I was definitely surprised by the mandatory gratuity. The service wasn t even good. I won t come back

The bowl soup was kinda cold, good taste, the waiter a little weird at us, however the food was good

A friend recommended this place, and Im glad he did. Service was very quick and the food was really good. There are so many options.

Some of, if not the, best Chinese in the city! ++ they re always open late!!

Great place

always a classic

This place has really gone down hill, service was terrible, food was okay compared to what it use to be.

so went here for a late night meal. their website says theyre open till 4am, but just before 3am, i went in to order and they were already closing. as I was walking out the door and obviously upset, the cashier calls me back and explains that one of their customers canceled an order of beef and broccoli that they had already made and was waiting. he said it was still hot he showed me it was untouched.. he tossed in a serving of rice and gave it to me half price. was floored by their efforts to get me something enjoyable to eat..! I know with coronavirus restrictions, their usual hours of op. have had to be temporarily adjusted, without any guidance on when theyll be able to go back to business as usual. So I cant really fault them for not updating their website and Google listing... but I give them full credit for having an exceptional staff and great customer service! ) *edit (April 2023): Google wants me to update my review for some reason-- This restaurant is still great. went in there last night after work. theyre actually open much later now.. until 5am. I went in there at 4am, got my grub.. Paid cash, and they knocked a few dollars off the total :)

One of the best Chinese restaurant in downtown. Chicken Fried rice here are to die for. Best regards to Johnson night shift manager/employee for always taking good care of us recycling/garbage guys.

Reliable joint, solid food.

Average food and taste.

Fast service tasty traditional Chinese dishes, friendly staff, very clean, highly recommend

The food is good and it s open late. Try the shrimp wonton noodle soup

Service wasn t great Food was average 6.5 or 7 according to my taste

I ve been coming here ever since I lived downtown in the late 90s and early 2000 s. This past Saturday night, I decided it s time to make the long drive into Toronto to introduce my kids to New Ho King. My order always consists of spicy calamari, lemon chicken, rice noodles with beef in black bean sauce, and baby bok choy with garlic. This time we also added Shanghai noodles. There was 4 of us ad we had leftovers to take home. The food was absolutely delicious and a new generation of New Ho King eaters was born! My kids are still talking about the calamari and can t wait to go back. Taking off one star for the following: being seated at an awkwardly large table when it looked like there were smaller tables available in the upstairs section, waiter not remembering our order (he didn t write it down), the table not being set with chopsticks or hot chilli sauce (I had to take the sauce carousel from the empty table behind ours), and some of the staff was smoking right outside the main doors (it s nice that they held the door open for us, but we had to walk through their cigarette smoke to get in). I also noticed that gratuity is now automatically included in the bill. I asked about this change and was told that many late night visitors would often leave without tipping so they started including it on the bill. I used to work in the service industry and I can understand that it may suck to not get a tip, but the entire premise of the tip is that it is given as a bonus for good service. I ve never not given a tip, even if service wasn t the best, but the service now was pretty mediocre to what it used to be. Perhaps New Ho King could remind their staff that they still have to provide service that is actually worthy of the gratuity.

I love the food also the friendly service

The proper and tasty Chinese food, the place is open until 4 am . Is perfect..

The food was really not good, it was not what I expected, but it was also no good quality: Noodles drowned in undefined sauce with one kind of tasteless vegetable and suspicious beef. The spiced broccoli was quite tasty, but difficult to eat. Service was not really friendly. Maybe he was, but he didn t like to communicate with his customers. Tips would be charged automatically on the bill. What I liked: they served tea instead of taped water, but never the less, I recommend to avoid this place.

Go there if youre in the area and youre really hungry because the service is super fast. But the food is okay nothing extraordinary.

Quantity over quality. Chicken was overcooked and did not taste fresh but at least the portions are big. Service was not very good either. If the restaurant staff reads this; get a new water filter we did not touch our waters because the water looked foggy and gross

The food was mediocre and the bok choy had dirt on it in my meal.

I really liked this place. Good food, open until very late on weekends. The service is super fast and price is fair!

Its about the food at 12am. Thats it.

Spicy Calamari is the best.....

The worst soup that I ever try!

Good food especially for westerners and good portions. My friend really liked it. Cash saves you the card fee. Tips included in bill. A little hiccup bringing us the wrong dish. Slight cleaning product smell in the dining area - maybe because we went late.

Good price

Worst Chinese in the area. Looked authentic. However.., I m not sure I was eating the General Tso chicken, pork dumplings meat was gross could ve been dog horse or who knows. I d recommend staying away. I love Chinese food and this was awful. Food : 1/5

I love this place. Been coming here since I was in my twenties. Foods great. I love the hot sauce and plum sauce they have in the bottles not those little packs. Only problem for me is sometimes the servers are not the nicest and when ordering ubereats they sometimes miss notes and don t pack the bottle sauces which ruins the meal for me. Overall, if notes are followed and even with a not so nice server .foods worth being somewhat mistreated lol.

Did answer phone. Online says they are ope till 2, yet their doors were closed by 1am. Not impressed. Dont recommend.

Vegetarian options: The sweet Pea leaves with mushrooms dish is a winner. Food

Me and some friends happened to randomly find this place while walking around and we are so glad we did! This is possibly the best Chinese food I ve ever eaten everything tasted amazing!

Very friendly. Excellent food.

*TERRIBLE SERVICE, FORCED TIP* Food is oily and subpar at best. We were sat on a sticky dirty table and we were told they are not sure what s good on the menu when asked for recommendations and they did not even bother to serve us tea with our order that is complimentary at this restaurant. Also, you are better off not using their washroom unless you can hold your breath for that long Needless to say, my friends and I will not be going back.

Delicious and simple

Great for a late night bite. Food is good, as well as service. Parking: Street parking. Food : 4/5 |

You dont go here for high end food or service. The food is good though, with like a 1000 menu items. For some reason when we were there, the place smelled bad.

Lobster was excellent. They try to put auto gratuity for only 2 people at 15%. Then the machine asks for more tip. Other than that tasty restaurant

Quick service, got the spicy salty fried calamari and it was good. Would get this again. Cantonese chow mein wasn t my favourite. I wouldn t get it again. There was not enough toppings compared to the amount of noodles. And the flavour wasn t that good. The food arrived extremely quickly.

I have been going to New Ho King for over 20 years. I usually order the same thing and its usually never a disappointment. There was an issue with one of our dishes and the manager generously took the dis completed off the reciept and took 50% off the entire bill so I made sure we tipped 50% because they went over and above. Make sure you try the chicken in a hot pot, the Cantonese Crispy noodles! It never disappointments!

This restaurant is a mixed bag of good food, with horrible service. While some items on the menu need to be completely removed...Youre feeding humans, and it cannot be a hit or miss. You must be consistent with your food standards inclusive of preparation and presentation. It was even a shocker to hear one of the Servers say to me, that the Seafood Soup was no good...My goshhhh, that was part of some red for the night

Food was delicious but please clean the male washroom smells worst than a public washrooms

Good food, incredible place. The service i awesome too. Keep up the good work folks

Always a go to place when I am in Toronto. Very flavourful

The negative reviews don t make sense this isn t fine dining Chinese. You hit up New Ho s for late night cravings. The food is made fresh to order & delicious with massive portions. The staff are hardworking and kind. There isn t a better Shanghai noodle or spicy calamari at this price point in the city. It s a yes for me!

Disgusting! They served me chicken that tasted like it was a week old. Made me instantly goto the washroom. Shame on them. I threw the rest in the garbage. Goto Rol San or even Canton Chilli instead

It was so bad I threw out both my meals and it costed me 50$ so not impressed even smelt bad !

I ve been here a couple of times. Just your regular no frills Chinese restaurant. Got the general Tao chicken, as they don t have a bbq ribs option (the small boneless ones). Friendly staff, nothing special however.

Classic spot for late night eats (and late late night). Maybe its not the best Chinese food in the world, but at 2am it sure tastes like it.

Good food, but my shrimp was 40 minutes late and was way over priced. If im going to pay 60$ for a meal it better show up in a reasonable amount of time atleast or you should comp something off of my bill. Probably pick somewhere else next time.

Food is good, as for service it took us a while to get to order but kitchen was fast.

Disappointed. Spare ribs are all dried out. I order from here every month but this was awful

I got through DoorDash. Probably the worst Chinese food I ve ever had. I m going to see if my friend with no taste bud action will buy it off of me. I m still hungry. Never again. Feel ripped off.

Been coming here for over 10 years now and never had a problem with the food. Fresh and delicious, the service can be a little better tho, y all should smile more it wouldn t hurt.

Food is great and cheap. Thats about it.

Found insect in food, bad service, almost came after 50 mins

Good Chinese food very clean and tasty just a little bit pricey

The portions are are a good size. The chicken fried rice is very good but the szechuan chicken is a big disappointment. Very saucey and lacking flavour. Definitely wish I went with their chicken wings or crispy beef.

Sizzling grouper in black bean sauce! Been coming here for 25 years (when it was 2 doors up). Still a great authentic chinese food fest, even in the middle of the night after clubbing. Sooooo gooood.

Had take out. Good portion sizes, good price. Parking: Very hard to find parking on street Wheelchair accessibility: Not accessible. Not much parking.

You get huge and delicious meal for cheap price! Love it

When I asked the server for the bill he immediately handed me a debit/credit machine and the numbers didn t seem right so I asked if whether gratuity was included or not. Of course he wasn t honest and lied to us claiming there was no amount gratuity on top of our bill which resulted us paying 20% more. Took a couple tries for him to hand us the original bill which did say GRATUITY was added. We always give good tips when dining it, however we do not appreciate misleading and dishonest services. Overall food was actually really good, just gotta watch out for some of the after hour servers/workers they will try to finesse you

The best food I had in Toronto. We certainly enjoyed our meal and the price was reasonable.

Food is only ok, greasy, no flavor, it sat in my stomach for days, wont be running back anytime soon

Ordered food from here for delivery. Got veggie and regular spring rolls. They were not labels and might as well have been the same. Also got the Pulled Pork Noodles, which were instant ramen covered in a clear sauce that was literally slime. The pulled pork on top was legit cheap cut up ham that was also slimy. I onky had a few bites and it gave me an upset stomach. Last item ordered was the Singapore Style Rice Noodles. Everything in it was over cooked and rubbery. The shrimp in it were dark red and you couldnt chew them. The only positive is that the portions are large, but it also made me feel bad to throw it away (so wasteful). I would strongly recommend avoiding this place.

Takeout. Honey garlic ribs were a tad overcooked, egg fried rice was nice.

1. Super rude service 2. Orders are small and overcooked. My chicken was mostly breading I couldn t even find meat in half of the plate. They just served us deep fried dough. Definitely better places in a neighborhood. Will never come back again

Hit n miss. Usually hit but yea

Open late option

Have ordered takeaway twice and happy with the dishes so far. The mixed meat fried rice and chowmein were really good value for money, not too greasy. Pricing is really good for the portion size as well

Inconsistent and low quality

Very accommodating on a busy Friday night! Cindy was very helpful and efficient. Quick and lovely service. Mt favourite food was the Spicy Calamari! Beef and Mushrooms were also especially yummy. I could tell that this place has been open for long as the food didn t taste like typical American Chinese food, actually had complex flavours.

Probably the worst Chinese food I ve ordered in a very long time. $60 on Uber eats gets you one soup, 2 egg rolls and two mains - everything I ordered was tasteless, dry, had no additional ingredients, for example general T chicken is just chicken, no veg, Singapore noodles were so dry it was like the chef emptied the curry powder tin egg rolls were basically empty I truly couldn t get over how brutal is was, and paying $12 in fees to Uber in order to eat garbage, not my best take out decision

The pork fried rice is crazy good

This place is always popping! And the portions and flavours are on point

Staff is rude

Im sorry new ho king, your Cantonese chow mein is the worst Ive ever had in my life. No carrots, no snow peas, no water chestnuts, lots of buckchoy and squid. I was willing to look past all of this, because anyone can chef up noodles in gravy, but your gravy has no flavor at all its wack. Who ever gave you guys all the good reviews, never ordered the Cantonese chow mein, thats for sure.

so rude and didn t even wanna give us water. wonton soup was gross

Pretty good food and good portions for the price. Tried the chicken balls which were delicious, chicken fried rice and the general tso chicken. General tso could ve had a bit more flavour but overall pretty good. Ordered food for delivery and it arrived hot and fresh. Leftovers tasted great the next day too. Overall would recommend and would return.

Amazing authentic food

If you love seafood, try out their Fukien Rice!

i m puzzled by the reviews, the food was amazing. quick service i went around 3am and they were spot on. definitely going back.

If youre looking for a chinese food fix after a night out, this is your place. Hot and fresh food made to order at 3am? Sign me up! Gets really busy so be prepared to wait.

No help whatsoever when Door Dash didn t deliver a $70 order.
