Ham & Egg Sandwich Comes with your choice of drink. Milk tea, coffee with tea, lemon tea, lemon water. We found the sandwich to be a step up compared to other places that serve similar food. The eggs were made just right and they gave ample servings of ham. Nice balance. LM17 - Foong Shing Dumpling Noodle (3 pcs) also comes with your choice of drink. Milk tea for the win. Sugar is provided at the table to sweeten the tea yourself which I prefer to do. Next we chose from the Signature Soup Noodles Menu. FN28 - Special Fish Soup Rice Vermicelli Fish slices, fish balls, fish tofu & dace fish cakes. We substituted rice vermicelli with yellow wonton noodles to see if it was better but would prefer to go with vermicelli. The soup came with cilantro, green onions, bean sprouts, in a very natural tasting, rich filling peppery yet sweet fish broth. A nice alternative to the traditional classic soups. For dessert we shared Hong Kong-style French Toast. TB03 - Chunky French Toast Bites. The French toast bread was so light and fluffy, cut into towering square pieces, held together with a smudge of peanut butter and drizzled with just the right amount of sweet condensed milk. Under new management they seem to have moved towards a menu expansion to include more pan-Asian dishes. Indonesian, Vietnamese, Singaporean, Shunde, Guangdong region as well as typical Hong Kong fare.

Came back for some HK cafe food after a while of not visiting and was surprised at what has…read morehappened to the restaurant. It was a let down of all aspects unfortunately - from service, to food quality, and it's worth. Upon arriving and dining here, I was surprised to see the place pretty empty. All the other times I've been here it was pretty packed. The severs were unfortunately not very friendly at all, from taking our orders, to bringing our food, down to paying for the bill. Not a smile was once seen from any of the serve staff. The food was okay with portions being smaller than what I remember it to be and prices higher than what a usual HK cafe should be as well. Our chicken instant noodle with green onion and ginger was drowning in A LOT of oil - although tasty, it was not pleasant to eat since it was so greasy. Overall, our party of 8 found the entire meal to be super expensive for the food quality and options. It was quite a hefty bill tbh. Fortunately, after I visited I did see that they posted online that they are under new management and have changes to their business. So hope they rejig their food, pricing and service.

The use of traditional elements, paper-cut window designs, red Spring Festival couplets, old-style newspaper wall coverings, and exposed brick adds a strong sense of nostalgia. It feels immersive and intentional, almost like stepping into a countryside home in Dongbei rather than a typical restaurant. The décor isn't fancy, but it's rich in cultural detail and warmth, perfectly matching the hearty, comforting style of Northeast Chinese cuisine. The space is unique and perfect for taking photos. The food here is very generous. We ordered the 4-person set with two side pots. Tomato Braised Beef Brisket and Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms and the portions were huge. Both pots arrived steaming hot and filled to the brim, clearly meant for sharing. The braised beef was rich and hearty, while the chicken pot was comforting and full of flavor, making it perfect for group dining or cold weather meals. Combined with the rustic, traditional décor, it really feels like authentic Northeast Chinese comfort food. The food and atmosphere were excellent, though the service was a bit lacking. Prices are reasonable for the generous portion sizes and the unique restaurant décor.

The highlight is the Iron Pot Stew (Tie Guo Dun), an interactive, communal dining experience where a massive iron pot is integrated directly into your table.

Beyond the immersive stew, the restaurant shines with large portions of classic Dongbei dishes and flawless, homemade dumplings.

A very friendly gentleman brought out the menu and some tea as we scanned the well-priced lunch menu. Since we both came for chili chicken, we tried 2 versions of this lunch special; one on crispy chow mien (extra) with a soft drink and one with hot and sour soup and steamed rice. The lunch combos come with a spring roll and a choice of soup or a soft drink and was around $14. Our food came out pretty quickly and it was piping hot which is always great! The hot and sour soup was very good and it actually had a nice kick to it with chunky tofu and veggies morsels. My friend took a spoonful and found it to be too spicy for her, but I have a decent heat tolerance and it tasted perfect for my palate. The chili chicken on our lunch looked equally good, but fell short as the chicken pieces were small, dry and tasted of old frying oil which was unfortunate because the gravy was so good. Maybe next time, I will try a different protein to see if that can earn the restaurant the rest of the stars. Looking forward to coming back to try other items here soon!

House Special Squid & Shrimp (小炒王) $19.99. It has garlic shoot, shrimps, scallops, squid, yam bean (沙角) and deep fried taro slices for crunchiness. This dish was spicy and it goes well as a appetizer along with beer or alcohol to share with friends and family. Signature Free Range Chicken with Red Onin Sauce (half chicken) $18.99 was tasty. The chicken was tender and juicy with burst of shallots and green onion flavours. The sweet soy sauce pairs well with the chicken. This is one of their signature dishes and I recommend this dish. Braised Goose Feet in Abalone Sauce with Snow Pea Leaves $27.99. The goose feet were huge, nicely braised and full of collagen soaking up the rich abalone sauce served over snow pea leaves. This is a special dish and definetely worth trying. Overall I enjoyed this place and have tried other dishes here too previously like beef fried rice, eggplant with minced meat, pork shoulder with veggies, etc. 4 stars and I would definitely come back for more!

We decided to try out Blooming Garden this time and I must say, they were much better than I anticipated. The servers were very accommodating and kind and we enjoyed everything we ordered. The stir fried turnip cake dish and the clam dish were real stand-outs with all other dishes tasting above average. The only reason for the 3 stars is that we were all super thirsty after the meal which is not always great when you're dining with older folks who need to watch their diets a little more carefully. We would likely come back to try BG again but not in a very near future.

The decor is refreshed and modern and the service was good for a Chinese restaurant, however I felt the menu was a bit confusing. After spending 10 minutes trying to order for our group of 6, we settled on some dishes where none stood out. The veggie dish with flounder was especially odd to me - super fishy and pungent but not in a good way. Overall I could give Dragon View another try, but maybe a pre-set menu for a larger group. Their set menus did seem quite expensive which is why we ordered à la carte. The à la carte menu was priced very reasonably.

The beef pakora were ok, not super well seasoned, and lots of batter with small pieces of beef. The chili chicken sauce was nice and paired well with the rice.

The seafood is indeed fresh and cooked well, but that's the only redeeming quality. Their set menus come with a small number of dishes and for the same price at comparable Chinese restaurants, you could get the same weight of king crab/lobster and several more dishes included in the set meal. As always, the steak comes out shortly after the order is made, way before our seafood is even taken out of the tank and showed to us. And the steak is always blue, hard seared on the outside and basically still moo-ing in the middle. Our king crab was not lively at all and they also added a supposed 1.5 lbs to our king crab and it certainly didn't look like it. The fries in the typhoon style lobster were cold, which is always a problem here. Service is absent and inattentive. Nobody changed our plates until we were nearly done eating. Overall, it's a popular place as the pioneer of the lobster and crab towers and perhaps worth trying one time for its popularity, but there are much better quality options in the GTA with better execution, value and service.

The service isn't quick, but it isn't slow either, it's just in between. The glass window they have is really nice to watch while you are waiting for your food as they fry the bread dough in from of you.

The portion sizes lean distinctly small and dainty, focusing heavily on delicate presentation and standard, bite-sized dim sum rather than hearty abundance. However, any critique regarding the plate size completely melts away the moment you step out of the common area and into your reservation. The whole private room vibe is absolutely crazy. Luna completely discards the traditional, chaotic, wide-open layout of standard dining halls in favour of a stunning, maze-like "closed design". Each of the enclosed private spaces feels like an exclusive, high-end sanctuary. The sleek, soundproof rooms come loaded with upscale Tang-dynasty-inspired decor, automated lazy Susans, and even high-tech smart toilets in the en-suite washrooms. It completely blocks out the outside world, delivering an intimate, VIP-level energy that is perfect for late-night celebrations.
