1. Sky Dragon Chinese Restaurant
$ | Chinatown |Downtown Toronto's quintessential dim sum eatery overlooks all of Chinatown from its secret rooftop perch at the Dragon City Mall. Carts with towers of bamboo steamed baskets containing shrimp dumplings or black-bean-sauce chicken feet ("phoenix claws" in Chinese), banquet-size platters of noodles, and traditional delicacies like black or yellow curried cuttlefish are pushed around the hall by gregarious servers who tick off boxes from your order list as they are served. There's also an extensive à la carte menu.

- Surprisingly expansive views through the huge windows
- Traditional Cantonese dim sum service
- Savory chive-and-shrimp dumplings
-
2. AGO Bistro
$$$ | Chinatown |Like the art gallery in which it's located, this bistro was designed by starchitect Frank Gehry, whose touches are seen in the minimalist decor and geometric ceilings. The dishes themselves, like the Basque-style eggs with chorizo, or grilled cornish hen with dandelion greens on coconut curry, are plated as works of art.

3. Banh Haus
$ | Chinatown |Imagine yourself lost at a Saigon night market at this trendy sandwich and snack bar that specializes in banh mi (Vietnamese sandwiches). Not satisfied with the traditional crusty white bread, Banh Haus offers whole-wheat and fried banh tieu (Vietnamese donut) buns as a vessel for fillings like grilled lemongrass chicken, five-spice sweet pork sausage, or deep-fried tiger shrimp. Other modernized street food classics include rice-paper-wrapped summer rolls and green mango salad.

4. Dumpling House
$$ | Chinatown |Fried dumplings stuffed with juicy shrimp and pork or the health-conscious steamed spinach and black mushroom wrappers are the stars of the show but ordering from the selection of northern Chinese staples is highly recommended too. Top crowd-pleasing picks are the ultra-thinly sliced semi-cooked potato threads cooked in a jolting spicy vinegar, and noodley tofu strips boiled and lightly stir-fried with pork and veggies.

5. Pho Pasteur
$$ | Chinatown |When you're having a late-night craving for Vietnamese food, this is the place for authentic bowls of pho or hearty curries with a crusty baguette to sop up the sauces. To drink, savor a slow-drip coffee with sweetened condensed milk or an exotic fruit milkshake in flavors like soursop or avocado.
525 Dundas St. W, Toronto, Ontario, M5T 1H3, Canada416-351--7188Known For
- South Vietnamese--style goat curry

6. R&D
$$$ | Chinatown |The idea here is that traditional Asian street food can exist side by side with modern haute cuisine, against a backdrop of fiery open kitchens and cavernous dining rooms. Experimental entrées borrow European ingredients like cauliflower couscous, maple syrup, and pan-seared foie gras on brioche. The cocktails make use of unconventional ingredients like spiced chamomile mist, bee pollen, and curry-infused gin.
241 Spadina Ave., Toronto, Ontario, M5T 2E2, Canada416-586–1241Known For
- Nightly "Lucky 7" cocktail hour
- Tasty beef cheek banh mi
- Dim sum--style appetizers

7. Swatow
$$ | Chinatown |If there is an equivalent to a fast-paced, casual Hong Kong–style diner in Chinatown, this would be it: the food is inexpensive and honest, and the setting is bright and spare. Diners enjoy heaping bowls of congee and customized noodle soups, including the best fish ball and shrimp dumpling bowls in town.
309 Spadina Ave., Toronto, Ontario, M5T 2E6, Canada416-977–0601Known For
- Excellent fried rice
- Open on holidays
- Communal tables
-
8. Wah Sing Seafood Restaurant
$$ | Chinatown |One of a jumble of Asian eateries clustered on a tiny street opposite Kensington Market, this spacious restaurant is beloved for its two-for-one lobster deals. The crustaceans are delicious and tender, served either with black-bean sauce or a ginger-and-green-onion sauce. You can also choose giant shrimp Szechuan-style or one of the lively queen crabs from the tank.
47 Baldwin St., Toronto, Ontario, M5T 1L1, Canada416-599–8822Known For
- Aquarium filled with a selection of fresh fish
- Whole braised duck
