Excellent authentic Chinese food and great company here at the Asian Legend Restaurant in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
The customer service was extremely poor. The staff members were impolite, and when we sat down, they showed no interest in our table. We patiently waited for someone to approach us so we could order more, but they consistently ignored us. One of the staff members appeared constantly unhappy and even raised his voice at a nearby table. Furthermore, the food was only mediocre. When we ordered the Peking duck, the wraps were chewy and served lukewarm. The steamed fish also arrived with missing parts and looked unappetizing.
One of the most authentic Chinese restaurants in Toronto. The portion size is slightly smaller than House of Gourmet but the quality and freshness of their ingredients are much better. Service has been superb and consistent every time I've been there.
Other reviews are right on the money here - this is a good Chinese spot that's neither too impressive nor terrible. The dim sum is a grade higher than what you get from casual takeout but nothing too mindblowing.
The restaurant's most popular dish is the xiao long bao or soup dumplings. The skin is not as thick as Juicy Dumplings and the broth is better, but it's probably not worth the extra price.
Surprisingly, I enjoyed the house fried rice most. Sure it was greasy as heck, but it was delicious and full of flavour.
Overall, a decent option for Chinese cuisine but with so many options in Chinatown, I'm not sure what will draw me back.

This place has been on my radar for some time but i just never got around to coming until my uncle's wife suggested coming over.
The beef soup noodles did not disappoint. The rich broth with thick noodle and tender beef. Not bad for beef noodles that I've had in Toronto!
Xiaolungbao, the soup dumplings (not featured in pic) were delicious as were the other Shanghainese dishes we ordered.

Pretty good chinese resto. Their xiao long baos were excellent and won ton soup and steamed dumpling were great. But shu Mai was just ok along with the fried baos. Would I go back?? Maybe...
Wonderful place if you want their steamed soup dumplings which they are very much known for. The food overall is good - the atmosphere is not as good as some of their larger locations in Markham.
A great spot with an impressive menu of Chinese dishes in downtown. Always a popular place as well!
Here, we got the Steamed Soup-filled Dumplings with Crab Meat and Pork. The broth could be a bit stronger and more aromatic in flavour, but still a decent choice. The Noodles with Minced Pork in Peking Sauce were delicious, the noodles had an incredible bite and texture to them. And finally, the Camphor Smoked Duck, amazing if you like duck. Some pieces were a tad dry, but that is just being picky. Overall, you cannot go wrong with the dishes here!
