| - An unfamiliar atmosphere when one thinks of a dim sum tea house, Casa Imperial is one of the strangest, yet best tasting restaurant.
Housed in what can only be described as a Victorian-era manor, the first time one passes by, one can only assume that it is a place for parties, functions and other formal gatherings. However, it is open to the public and once inside, the old English atmosphere continues to befuddle and bewilder.
Never mind this, onto the most important part, the food.
The food initially comes across as pretentious and unnecessarily dressed-up, but upon further inspection, the addition of key ingredients serves to add a complex nuance to a simple flavor.
Simply put, the food tastes better.
Also appreciated is a lack of MSG present in the items, as that is not always the case.
The quality of all of the traditional items is top notch, and the special items are very good too.
Definitely my favorite dim sum restaurant based on food quality alone in the GTA, though the price does leave something to be desired.
