Best Chinese Restaurants in Cabbagetown

DaiLo is one of those rare places where the food and the service are both excellent. The menu takes Chinese flavours in a modern, inventive direction, and nearly every dish felt thoughtful and full of flavour. We did the tasting menu, which is the way to go. It gives you a wide run of dishes at a good value. The truffle fried rice with XO sauce was a standout. The Hakka wontons were rich and satisfying, and the fried watermelon with pork floss was the surprise of the night, cool and juicy inside with a crisp coating. Dessert was a fun finish too. The service made the evening. Our server was knowledgeable, made great suggestions, and the whole team was warm, attentive and friendly. The cocktails are also well worth ordering. The room has a stylish retro Hong Kong feel with warm lighting, booths and a lively buzz, so it works for date night or a group. It's best with a few people so you can share and try more of the menu. Very good!

We loved the chef’s choice menu at Sunnys! Every dish was delicious. The service was great and ambiance lovely and warm.

A friend was visiting Toronto for 24 hours and had time for one great dinner. Mimi was the obvious choice, and both first-time and repeat guests were blown away. The chef’s menu is one of the best value fine dining experiences I’ve ever had.

The service was excellent. Our server Ivan offered great recommendations and an exceptional experience as did the other staff. The food was very presentable however, in comparison to its HK location, the taste and quality was a bit different. It was still very good, but I expected a bit more. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

The restaurant was architecturally outstanding. The tables were set in quiet, private alcoves that made us feel genuinely special. And special the meal was: the wine recommendation was perfect, the dishes were a true culinary delight, and the service was exceptional from start to finish.
