Items that I got this visit: - har gow shrimp dumplings: overall pretty good, but the wrapper was a bit thicker than I expected. Would prefer a thinning dumpling wrapper - chicken feet: excellent, very tender and flavor was great - tofu skin wrap in abalone sauce: pretty good, the meat inside was lean and well balanced with the veggies - spare ribs in black bean sauce: this was a bit of a disappointment. The ribs were a bit tough and also underseasoned. It could have used some more salt and some extra cook time. Service was fine, nothing special. The restaurant overall was pretty nice and modern. I hope to come back sometime and try some other dishes.

Food 4/5 Service 4/5…read moreAmbiance 4/5 Food: I came here for a lunar New Year lunch with some co-workers. They chose the menu which was a combo deal. There were so many dishes I started losing track. LOL. I also don't know all the names of the dishes as I didn't see the menu. One of the dishes was a fried lobster. They showed the lobster to us (poor lobster) before cooking it. The lobster tasted really good but I'm not used to handling lobster in its shell. LOL. There was a pumpkin soup which I couldn't eat since it had dairy in it. Another dish was a Peking duck with rice paper wraps, cucumber & green onions. This was my favourite dish. Delicious, yummy & simple to eat. Another dish was chicken (I didn't taste that one). We also had a fried rice which was so yummy. Then there was a dish with scallops, oysters, pork & seaweed surrounding it. I tried the scallops & they were delicious. There was another duck dish but this time the duck was chopped into little pieces with some Dessert was a yogurt / jelly type of thing which I can't eat due to my dairy intolerance. Service was really great. I'm not sure if that's because I was at a table full of Chinese people though. LOL. The dishes came quickly & they just kept coming! We had tiny plates to eat from so after the lobster we got clean plates. For the fried rice we had the servers separate it into bowls for everyone. Since we couldn't finish all the food we had them wrap up the leftovers & we took it back with us. Myself & another co-worker split up the leftovers between us since no one else wanted it. Ambiance: The restaurant had some nice lunar new year decorations up. It was pretty. Located inside the Atrium on the Bay this is an easy location to get to. The location was the site of a former restaurant called Spring Rolls. It still looks the same the only thing that changed were the tables & chairs. The washrooms are downstairs in the lowest level of the restaurant. It was hard for me to get down there because my knees are really stiff & painful. It would've been nice if they had a handicap washroom on the main level. The food was delicious & service was attentive. I thought the special lunar new year meal we chose was too much food for six people. I would've been happy with dim sum. Also the washrooms being in the basement was an inconvenience for me. Those who are mobility challenged will have the same issue.

My friends and I recently checked out this Chinese restaurant right by Dundas Street in downtown…read moreToronto, and wow - what a pleasant surprise! We ordered what we thought was a regular-sized soup to share, plus a couple of main course dishes. When the soup arrived, we both just looked at each other like "What the hell?!" - it was enormous! Easily enough for 3-4 people. The portions here are seriously huge, so keep that in mind when ordering. What we thought would be a light meal turned into a very filling feast. The food itself was really good. The soup was flavourful and comforting, and the mains we chose were tasty with generous amounts of meat/veggies and solid seasoning. Everything tasted fresh and properly cooked - definitely above average for downtown Chinese food. Location is super convenient if you're in the Dundas area - easy to get to, right in the heart of downtown. Great spot to hang out, especially if you're hungry and want good value. Just be prepared to either come with an appetite or take leftovers home (we definitely did!). Would happily go back next time we're craving Chinese in the area. Highly recommend! Perfect place for a casual catch-up with friends - just don't underestimate the portion sizes!

The decor and interior is a bit rundown -- the booth we sat in had duct tape over the seat to keep it together -- leftover from previous restaurants that were in this unit. But it is a large dining space that comfortably fits lots of people -- good for large and small groups. Service is very slow -- even on a week night. It's very hard to get their attention for assistance. Unlike typical Chinese restaurants, they don't seem to hurry to flip tables. Prices are reasonable, and portion is good. Food can be a hit or miss. At a recent dinner with family, we ordered: Steamed Chicken, Stir-fry Green Beans, Sweet & Sour Pork, Pumpkin with Salted Egg Yolk and an Egg White Fried Rice. The meal came with a free chicken soup to start and that was good. The fried rice and chicken were good. The other three dishes tasted ok but were more fatty and greasy. Couldn't eat much of them, and put a damper on the whole meal. On a previous visit, we did have a very good wonton noodle soup. That's probably the only thing I'd return for. Overall, this please really is "just OK". Would choose other restaurants in Mississauga before this one. But in a pinch, it would do. Also FYI: If you have leftovers, note that they charge extra for each takeaway container you request! So bring your own containers, or finish all your food if possible.

The elegant…read moreatmosphere, attentive service, and intimate setting made it the perfect place for a special evening together. If you're ordering from the "Large Plate" section of the menu, make sure you come with a healthy appetite--the portions are generous and meant to be savored. We enjoyed the Wok-Seared Short Ribs and the Run Free Chicken with Black Truffle, and both dishes were absolutely outstanding. The short ribs were tender, rich, and packed with flavor, while the black truffle elevated the chicken into something truly memorable. From the ambiance to the incredible food, every detail made for a wonderful evening. Lai Wah Heen is an excellent choice for a romantic dinner or any occasion worth celebrating. We'll definitely be back!

I have to say the quality and presentation are great and you can definitely share a number of dishes. We are not huge eaters - so for 3 people we had one appetizer and two mains. The service was really top notch but in some ways a bit over the top. (At some point just let people serve themselves). It wasn't really busy (maybe folks are not aware that it's open again). Or maybe folks are put off by the high prices.

During weekdays during the day there's not many workers so the service can be very slow. They're quick during the weekends and very busy. They also have a vip card for $25 which gives you 10% off the bill and free tea. The amount of times we go here and the food we order I think we already made the card worth. The place is clean and spacious. They have many table and some private dining for celebrations. We have celebrated some birthdays here and they're able to accommodate at least 15 people or so. I enjoy eating their typical dimsum dishes on the menu i.e. Siu mai, Har gow, salted egg yolk bun, egg tarts, turnip cake with shrimp. Their claypot rice is not bad as well. Giving it 4 stars because there were times when service is slow.

My go-to dish is always the e-fu noodle w/ minced pork and eggplant. Saucy, slightly spicy and slurpy. Delish. I usually pair it together w/ cold milk tea, zero sugar. Absolutely hits the spot on NFL sundays. Sometimes the chef will have an off day because sometimes the noodles come out a lil dry and not as saucy. I find it hard to complain though ... cuz of that price and the fat portions. Definitely not the nicest aunties working the restaurant when you walk in. You actually get death stares from several of em but if you speak cantonese and you're ordering takeout you'll be fine LOL. 3.5/5 stars (as the food quality is a mixed bag on some days) but I'll round up to 4 stars since the lunch price and portion size is sensational.

The food is pretty decent and the portions are more than fair. The most attractive thing is the price. Lunch special starting at $8.85 a dish with a drink included, you absolutely cannot complain. I mean, this is pricing from like 2013. What more do you want? Now the only thing people do complain about this place, is the service. Good service does not exist here (mostly). As I said earlier, they are pretty traditional. If you've been to some more local restaurants in HK, you'd understand. Yes there will be some old Chinese ladies yelling at each other. Yes, their attitude can be bad at times when they are super busy. But for $8.85 and a drink? I think I can live without the "good" service and pay $15-$20/dish. All in all I'd give them 4.5/5.

The fried rice was so good, and the water spinach was cooked perfectly. Every dish matched the flavors I love, and we really enjoyed our meal.
