Cantonese Restaurants near Toronto, ON

“Very good Cantonese Chinese food options for downtown Toronto. They have lobster options and Peking duck at $88.

Typically we don’t like to eat authentic Chinese food downtown Toronto but prefer Markham or even Scarborough - but this restaurant seems to check all boxes in terms of hygiene , cleanliness , food selection , service and taste.

We had the signature lobster , green peas , Shrimp dumplings , and pineapple fried rice 😋

And they’re open all day for lunch and dinner

They also offer a separate take out window from inside the building which is great !

“House of Gourmet is a solid Chinese spot with a huge menu and something for everyone. The sweet and sour pork is my personal favorite in the city. It’s great for groups, big or small, and super accessible—right in the heart of Chinatown with easy transit access.“

“Canton Chilli, nestled in the heart of Chinatown, is a culinary refuge for anyone seeking warmth and comfort. On a particularly frigid evening, after an exhausting search for a functional RBC debit machine, I found myself wandering the bustling streets of Chinatown, defeated and chilled to the bone. In my aimless roaming, Canton Chilli appeared like an oasis of light and warmth amidst the chaos.

Inside, the restaurant radiates a welcoming simplicity. Pop music plays softly over the hum of sizzling woks, and the air is filled with the unmistakable aroma of garlic, ginger, and soy. I ordered the chicken sweet corn soup for $9.95 and a complimentary spring roll, unaware I was about to experience pure culinary comfort.

The spring roll was a revelation. Its golden, crispy exterior shattered with the perfect crunch, revealing an umami-rich vegetable filling that was earthy and satisfying. It wasn’t just a starter; it was a promise of the meal to come.

The chicken sweet corn soup arrived steaming and fragrant. Each spoonful offered tender shreds of chicken and bursts of sweet corn suspended in a creamy, golden broth. The subtle seasoning, with a gentle kick of white pepper, elevated it beyond ordinary comfort food—it was restorative, like a warm hug in a bowl, evoking memories of home and care.

Canton Chilli also excels in family-style dining. Their special family dinners, ranging from two to four items, provide a perfect balance of variety and value, making them ideal for any gathering. Dishes like General Tso’s chicken, shrimps with mixed vegetables, Manchurian-style hake chow mein, and their iconic vegetarian spring rolls cater to every palate, from the adventurous eater to the traditionalist.

In a city known for its fast pace, Canton Chilli offers a moment of pause—a place to share a meal, connect with loved ones, or simply find solace after a long day. For me, it was not just a meal but a lifeline on a cold night, proof that comfort and kindness can be found in the unlikeliest of places. Canton Chilli is more than a restaurant; it’s a reminder that food, at its best, is both nourishment and sanctuary.“
