Located on the 2nd floor of a hotel, Lai Wah Heen offers friendly and attentive service. The room is lovely, and the ambiance is appreciated by many. While the prices may be steep, some guests find the food to be brilliant, especially the dim sum, which is considered the best in Toronto. The dim sum items are described as refined, although the milk tart was noted to differ from its description, as the dragonfruit flavor was not prominent. The Peking duck, although good, was served with cold wraps, impacting the overall experience. The venue itself is viewed as old and lacking in sophistication, given the high prices. The service is efficient, with some wishing they could give it more than 5 stars. Despite fresh bok choi, some still find the food underwhelming and may not return. However, many guests express a desire to return for dim sum and dinner, enjoying the unique selection of tea leaves and the good presentation of dishes like Cha Siu at $37. The restaurant also validates parking for those who drive.
