I had a friend from Mississauga that wanted to try Dim Sum in the North York area. Besides Legend, and another sub par restaurant along Steeles avenue there are not that many. There were still many tables left at around 11am when we dropped in. They have all the traditional dim sum items such as curry cuttlefish, steamed dumplings, bbq pork buns, shrimp rice noodles, and fried taro with pork pastry. The quality was top notch especially for their shrimp rice noodles and fried taro with pork pastry. Their steamed dumplings were weak due to the thickness of the wrap and the dry meat filling. Their service and atmosphere was fine as our table was in a separate room from the main hall which made conversing easier.
The location is awesome since there aren’t tons of Chinese restaurants in the Yonge and Steeles area. Alhough the dim sum is not fancy like the Casa Victoria chain, the dim sum is consistent, the food comes out hot and the servers are friendly. Some stand out dim sum dishes include the egg custard bun, curry pot pies with minced meat and egg tarts. I’ve been here several times for dinner and for banquet functions. I had my daughter’s One Month party here, and it was a breeze working with the Managers to organize the event. They were organized and accommodating. The 10 course dinner was delicious and included whole roasted pig, twin lobster and steamed sea bass.The restaurant is beautiful, well maintained and looks clean. maryshappybelly.com
Delicious and authentic! HUGE portions for affordable prices! But no delivery…
Disappointed to say the least. I’ve heard good reviews of this restaurant and decided to visit it. On a quiet holiday monday in between dinner and lunch I arrived and the service was poor and it took a while for anybody to arrive to assist me in selecting items from the menu. Staff was sparse and barely doing the necessities. The food was okay and at least it was warm/hot on arrival. However, the staff began vacuuming before I left the restaurant. This is not a proper practice in any restaurant and disrespectful to customers. I would not recommend others to visit this restaurant and they should at least close it for a certain time period in order to clean like some other restaurants. I have worked in retail in the past and we never vacuumed while customers were present.
Amazing Dim Sum!!!. I have been going to Legend Chinese for about two or three years now and I have yet to have anything short of an amazing meal there. The Dim Sum is sooo good! The are so many great dishes at Legend, but I’ll just list a few of my favourites. Here they are (no particular order): Ha Gaau, Siu Maai, Cheong Fan, BBQ Pork Bun, Beef Short Ribs, Shrimp wrapped in Fried Bean Curd, Fried Octopus. . . a bit of a larger dish than the small Dim Sum dishes that is an absolute must at Legend is the Peking Duck. It is ridiculously good! The Peking Duck is served in two courses: the first course is thinly sliced duck served with a sort of Chinese pancake, some veggies and Hoisin Sauce . . . the second course is sauted duck and veggies that is then stuffed into iceberg lettuce wraps. Sooo good! The best Dim Sum I’ve had hands down!
Love this place.. Delicious Chinese food!! instagram.com
It was very tasty, affordable, and generous. Great service. You will definitely have lots of leftovers for a tasty lunch the next day. 5/5
