For being Dim sum place, you would think they would have edible dim sum. You would be wrong. Microwaved balls of low quality meat. Lesson learned always yelp at airport. read more

Bad service, server keep forgetting our food and left them at the kitchen counter..food was disappointed!!

If I could give this place negative stars, I would have!!!!! Even the meal on Air Canada is better than their stuff. Plus, the service is horrible. The worst thing is the waitress entered a mandatory gratuity on the bill (18%). This should be illegal and it is immoral. It is not about the money, but the service and food are just too bad to make you feel like you want to give 18% tips! Mr.Lee, I admired you when I watched your cooking competition, but now this restaurant destroyed my impression on you. I am sorry to say I will probably never go to your other restaurants because of this. read more

Service , Miles was awesome. Basil Pad Thai remarkably underwhelming in flavor. All the condiments at the table could not bring it to life. The Veg Udon was very good and worth the calories. read more

Horrendous service: slow to take our order, lots of needless and tacky up selling, and incapable of giving us a bill in a timely manner: it's an airport restaurant! Food is OK but nothing like the real downtown restaurants. If I were Susur, I'd be embarrassed. He should be. read more

Walked out after 15 minutes of not getting service or even a menu. Expected more from a place that charges $10 for 2 baos.

Really bad services, asked for water and check for 3 times, the waitress finally came and asked what do you want....gave one dollar for tips. Don't come here and waste your money. read more

Just ordered the general Tao chicken for take out. I paid $20. I've had food court level general tao chicken that tastes way better and for much cheaper. I understand it's airport pricing but $20 is jacked up for something this bland that I can get for $10 somewhere else. The rice tastes like it's barely cooked. It was mostly hard and a bit crunchy. The chicken is very soggy and bland. Also why put such a tiny portion of food in such a giant take out container? It literally filled up 1/8th of the container. read more

I should have looked at the reviews before I stopped in. It would have saved me a little money. I had the dim sum sampler. I was disappointed. I was wowed by Susur Lee's name on the wall. Everything was overdone. The shrimp was wrapped in goo instead of rice paper. The beef and chicken dumplings had nice flavour but the wonton was so over cooked that it was just a mess. Everything was sticky and gooey. The pork buns also had a nice flavour but the bun was a gluey mess. Lesson learned. read more

Definitely the place to avoid at t1 international gate. Service was really bad. Servers just ignored customer. I was expecting the food could taste better than average Chinese restaurant food because of the name. I was totally wrong. The beef noodle taste much worse than $8 noodle from China town. read more

So. I will admit, the Basil Pad Thai was really tasty. The service sucked though. Unfortunately, it made me very, very sick. Had a four hour flight where I thought I was dying. It was the longest fours hours of my life practically. Ruined almost two days of my trip and disappointed my husband who had prebooked a romantic dinner for us at our resort. Couldn't even eat it. The way I see it, you owe us $70 American. read more

Service was just okay. We ordered shrimp shumai and chicken with ginger steam bun. It took 30 min. Not flavorful.

We came here to grab a lunch, ordered noodle soups wand waited 30mins still no food. We have to go because flight is boarding. Just paid $40 for nothing. Do not visit if you don't have 1hr to spent! read more

Avoid this place unless you're out of alternative. Long service. Super overpriced food, tiny portions and service is also very long.. You much better off the kiosks in front read more

Been waiting for more than 30 mins. Extremely arrogant stuff. Avoid this place at any cost

Very slow service. waited for 20' for a tiny bow of wonton soup. Still no meal until boarding.

As an asian and a fan of Susur's ( I watch a lot of food network television) I was hoping for much more flavourful fare from a restaurant bearing Susur's name. I understand that airport food is not amazing but the food I had at Rick Bayless' reataurant in Chicago O'hare was great. The wonton noodle soup that I had was very bland although the shrimp wontons were tasty. I've made much better soup bases at home. The crispy spring rolls were mostly dough but the dipping mayo was spicy and good. My husband had the beef tacos and they were good but for a $20 plate the portion was tiny. He was still hungry. This was a disappointment especially since the Toronto Pearson international section had few proper restaurants. read more

Dim sum is delicious here, especially the steam beef dumpling! Better than any place I had in New Jersey!

This is a very very good choice at the airport. Fresh food choices, fast service and friendly servers. I had the mango salad with chicken satays. It was plenty of food and nicely done. I would choose this restaurant over any others in this section of the airport for sure. read more

Bad Pat Thai. Really awful taste. It was too salty and doesn't taste like any Thai I had before. I am not exaggerating. I am not a picky person. I had so much Thai food in my life so I know what is good what is bad. I lived in the US for 8 yrs so I know what Americanized Thai food taste like. I had been to Thailand twice so i know what real Thai food is. This is extremely disappointing. However, manager and waiter have good attitude and cancelled my food order even I wanted to pay. Good service, bad chef? read more

I ordered the wonton soup, and a drink which came to $33. There were 3 wontons in the soup and hardly any vegetables, and I was made to eat the soup with a fork. How do you get any broth from soup with a fork?! I was also asked to pay my bill as soon as I was delivered the soup, didn't even get to dig in and they already billed me?!... SAVE YOUR MONEY THIS PLACE IS A RIP OFF! read more

Thought i was gonna get some sweet dimsum before my flight. Jokes on me, for thinking i could get good food at the airport. I got the dimsum sampler, everything was over steamed and cracked from being over cooked. DONT BOTHER COMING IN just get some food from somewhere else. For $2.50 a piece you're getting ripped off. read more

Great Service! Bo did a wonderful job going over the menu with me, and making me feel well taken care of after a long flight.

Over priced and noisy. The Asian salad was a disappointment with over cooked chicken on a skewer. Poor service on top . Over $40 with a beer

It was ok, nothing to rave over. The Kung pao chicken was alright but the mango smoothie had no mango flavour.

Waited 5 minutes to be seated, was told to seat ourselves. Waited 5 minutes to be greeted and get a menu. Stood up and got the menu myself. Waited 10 more minutes to have our order taken, nothing. Stood up and left. I'd rather fly on an empty stomach then try this place again. read more

Ordered simple beef noodle wonton soup . Took more than 30 min. Also had to wait another 15 min for the order. Soup is basically bunch soy sauce and sesame oil with pre cooked wonton, beef and thick noodle. Any Chinese restaurant in downtown can get soup like this for half of the price . $22 plus tax and tips . Definitely not getting the ban for the $$$ read more

Normally food at the airport in Toronto is very poor quality but this time I was pleasantly surprised with the food at Lee's Kitchen in terminal 1. I had some dim sum, specifically steamed dumplings which were very good and not too salty. This particular location was a Casey's until Susur Lee revamped the menu. It is not just Asian food but western comfort food with a slight Asian twist. Definitely superior to average airport food. read more

Service was bad, and it took kitchen 45 minute to make my Wonton Noodle soup. At $22, It's is also way overpriced for the soup.

I tried to find reasons to like this restaurant but after our brief experience there, it seems impossible. First we needed to ask for a table, once sitting, we were ready to order immediately as we had checked out the menu prior to coming in. They were quick to seat everyone else who came in, and since they were seating so many people, they were mixing up orders and giving other people who arrived after us the food which we ordered. They brought us fried wontons instead of the shiu mai and har gow we had ordered - after some investigation with the server, we were told that it was his first day. All good with us, we're easygoing people. It was only after we realized they served the same dish (which we had touched to inspect what it was) to the couple next to us as if they simply brought it to the wrong table. They brought the food over to them as if it was fresh out of the kitchen - this was EXTREMELY CONCERNING. Our food was not fresh and was clearly left to steam too long. They did not compensate in any way and we left with a bad taste in our mouth - literally and physically I'm astounded that a restaurant advertising itself as a Susur Lee restaurant could be so HORRIBLE. Will certainly go out of my way to avoid eating here in the future as the experience, the food, the service, everything was well below satisfactory. read more

The food was good ordered wonton and beef udon noodle and the banana desert which was great. The service was horrible. It was hard getting the attention of the waitress even though they were just standing around. read more

Terrible service with average food. Staff not doing justice to Susur Lee brand. Will not go back.

Layover in Toronto and was hungry for Chinese. Was also curious to eat at a Susur Lee restaurant, having known him to be a celebrity chef with a few good restaurants to his name. But oh was I so sadly disappointed. Terrible service- inattentive and unapologetic for dirty chopsticks. Had to chase the staff for water, sharing plates and utensils. Food was extremely overpriced for what you got. $28 "award-winning" chicken curry tasted like a bad food court dish. Udon soup at $22 a bowl was the most overpriced and underwhelming bowl of noodles I've ever had. We weren't sure what to do but after deciding not to tip, the waiter laughed out loud when he took the receipt in his hands. This place should shut down and Susur Lee oughta be ashamed. read more

I can only guess that Mr. Lee has never eaten here and if he has, his standards have fallen through the floor. Food was inedible, dim sum over cooked, fried food left a puddle of grease, and the service was indifferent. Terrible value. Save your money. read more

Under staffed and no management. Half the beer choices were out. Food was poor and not a single vegetarian option except for a couple of starters or the chicken salad without the chicken at full price. read more

Good honest food and great service. Wasn't very busy in the resto on a Saturday at Pearson International gate. Had grilled cod with leak and potato creamy mash. The mash was warm not just quote hot enough, but the fish was hot and juicy with a perfect seasoning; delicious! I went with the Vanilla cake with melted chocolate, whipped cream and berry compote for dessert and it was just a perfect size to finish the meal. This is really the place to go eat if you have time before boarding your flight! I will come back for sure! read more

Over-priced "Chinese" food, beef udon is $22 which tastes like $10 udon anyway else. Spring roll is good.
