Reviews for Tao Northern Chinese Cuisine in East York, ON

We tried the lunch menu and the food was a bit underwhelming, think a fast food place on the food court quality. The prices are... reasonable though and the lunch combos include a choice of meat, soup, spring roll and rice. The service was good, so it is okfor what it is. If you are in the area and you want a quick Chinese meal, it is not too bad. Read more

This place started getting me into Chinese cuisine, super tasty and has a variety of flavours! The Pork Dumplings are so much... nicer than any of the other I’ve eaten Also the owners have really cute kids that come around every now and then ???? Read more

3 years ago, I rated this restaurant 5-star. As of today, this is the worst place I have eaten in in years! I should have... followed my intuition and gone to Perfect Chinese instead! We got our drinks 15 minutes after ordering. Our app didn’t arriveat all that I asked them to cancel the order! Ordered Xiao Long Bao, Fried Rice, Kung Pao and Honey Pork. Kung Pao arrived 45minutes after ordering, fried rice came 48 minutes after ordering and waited an hour for the tasteless, bland, boiled Honey Porkafter ordering! Never again! Read more

I had been here a few times in the past and really enjoyed the food especially the peking duck. However, I was not impressed... today when they charged $1.25 for a cup of hot water for an upscale restaurant. The appetizer chives pancake portion is alsosmaller now for $9 (website said $7). I also ordered the half roast duck but was not given any veggies/scallions to accompanythe wraps. The duck meat was kinna dry. I also ordered fried pork buns and the custard buns but the server brought the wrongitem and was upset when I asked to switch. She flew the menu on the table behind and left begrudgingly to fetch the correctorder. My girlfriend and I were not feeling full and had to go get burgers instead. Wouldn't want to return again!

Amazing food, friendly staff. Restaurant with great food for the whole family. Highly recommended!

One of the best restaurants in the city. The Peking duck is a must. Also the crispy beef and chilli chicken are delicious. The... service is so friendly and they always go out of their way for us. Read more

Disappointing performance especially with the duck. It was very very hard and the special Tai sauce does not have a significant... taste. The noodle was ok. Eggplant was good. Kind servers for sure. But no ambience and no great taste Read more

Delicious Chinese food. I think there a wider mix than just Northern dishes. I quite liked the lemon chicken, the batter was... crisp without being too heavy or oily. The Hakka noodles are also a favorite, just enough heat to taste but still mild enoughfor almost everyone. Read more
