| - We learned about this place from various websites, journals, and newspapers. We came here last week for lunch. This place is near the Pacific Mall. The restaurant is in a historical building, but the place is sort of run down, and the decor is a bit dated. There was a long line around lunch time, and we had to wait about 30 minutes before getting seated. We should've made a reservation. The food is a bit pricey, if not over priced, and you are paying for the location, nice dinning set, and the linen. We give this place two stars for the elaborate service. We had a server taking our orders, and then, there is a server for serving the dim sum from the carrier's dim sum tray. We had a different server to portion the soup, Cantonese noodles, and other dishes. Between each dishes, they refreshed our plates. Pretty elaborate. However, no stars for the food. Everything we ordered were either stales, lukewarm, under-seasoned or over-seasoned. Cantonese noodles were too dry and the taro was too soggy. We've had dim sum at other places. We chalked our visit as an experience and we probably won't be back next time we are in Toronto.
