Best Dim Sum
in Toronto

Toronto is widely considered to have the best dim sum in North America, rivaling the top houses in Hong Kong. While the historic Chinatown downtown offers nostalgia and classic cart service, the spiritual home of elite dim sum has migrated north to the massive, ornate banquet halls of Markham and Richmond Hill. Whether it’s the traditional "yum cha" experience with push-carts or the modern "order-by-checklist" style, the city's dim sum is defined by technical precision and premium ingredients like truffle and lobster.
