Roasted duck is a must! I tried numerous restaurants for the peking duck but J&Y’s impressed me a lot. Deep fried salt and pepper duck is the best way to deal with the leftovers. Just one thing I didn’t like - they didn’t provide enough bread but charged me $6 for extra bread.

This place is recommended to me by a fellow foodie as one of the best places in Toronto to get Peking duck. And so far, I have not been disapppointed - with quality that is on par with other more expensive brands. Their other dishes are also of high quality - but be aware that none of the offerings here are cheap. The good thing is you do get your money's worth.Parking is free and relatively plentiful IF you go off-hours. Weekend nights will be more challenging, for obvious reasons.Parking: Fills up very quickly during weekend mealtimes

Went here in a group of 5. We ordered a set dinner, which was meant to feed a group of 4 but, it fed more than that. The dishes were great but, it was loud inside due to the very open layout and other costumers talking to each other. There's nothing inside to dampen the noise.

The Peking duck with lettuce wrap as they are know for it, highly recommend it. The garlic snow pea leaves were flavorful, and the stir-fried beef tenderloin with cashew and honey pepper sauce was delightful. The deep-fried crispy chicken was perfectly cooked, and the steamed sea bass was incredibly fresh. The jumbo scallops with mushroom and lotus root is good with jumbo scallops as advertised, and the oysters with green onion and ginger were also good. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the variety and flavors of the dishes.OverallFood 9/10Service 8/10

The fried beef river is rubbish, the lobster is too expensive, and the Cantonese fried noodles are not good.

It's an authentic Cantonese restaurant with Great food! We are group of 9 and ordered a set menus and everything was delicious. Only issue was the lobster dish came out last, where normally that should be near the start or middle of the meal. We were too full to eat the lobster at the end. That being said, Lisa the waitress was very accommodating and super friendly. She understood one person has very strict dietary restriction and try to make everything okay for her.It's a very clean and bright environment. Washroom was nice and smells fine.We hope to come back again someday.

Third time coming here; the previous two trips were enjoyable but the last trip pretty much cemented that we won’t ever go back. Two people in our group are allergic to shellfish, and I told the waiter this at the outset. We chose what we thought were shellfish free options. The hot and sour soup came out with shrimp ?‍♂️We asked to double check again and the other items weee fine. The Peking duck and the duck rice was enjoyable, but for some reason they didn’t have lettuce. Uuh wth? Not to say the duck rice wasn’t good though. Then I realized.. why is the duck rice the second dish? Isn’t usually the last dish? Then our dining experience just went downhill from there. We ordered another soup, but didn’t get bowls for the two shellfish allergic diners. Also had to ask again for new spoons. Flagging the waiter down in a near empty restaurant took more effort than it should. At one point the chef - who was on his meal break - flagged the waiter for us.The server(s) wasn’t helpful with menu suggestions. The food sequencing was just weird (came out slowly and in no specific order). Like one dish would come out - we were hungry so we ate almost all of that and waited for the next dish. Food quality was ok - I get the impression that they prepped for their set menu and wasn’t ready for people ordering non set menu. Eg I wanted steamed fish but the server said it was for the set menus only and wouldn’t sell one to me just a la carte.That being said, restaurant is nice and clean.

Charged us extra for a little bit of extra spring onions for our Peking duck. We were hoping to get a whole duck but there weren’t a lot of meat and they only gave us 8 wraps. Extra wraps were also a $6 charge. When asked for the rest of the duck, they said this was it. Looks like they split 1 duck to 2 or 3 orders. What’s the point of charging for sauce or little things when it only upsets the customer and make them tip much less. Probably won’t be back here again

The pekking duck was tasty - I loved the thin wrapper and the fatty duck slices. Just as other reviewers mentioned, it is quite pricey for what you get imo. We also got duck fried rice, chicken and black bean sauce, and snow pea leaves, all of which were good but nothing super crazy. Overall, I think this is a solid Chinese place ??
