How we pick

A place is here only if at least 2 of these 6 public lists name it. They are blogTO (April 3, 2024), Destination Toronto (April 3, 2025), TasteToronto (December 17, 2024), Narcity (September 8, 2022), blogTO's Markham list (December 11, 2022) and Tastet's Chinese restaurant list (updated September 17, 2026). No award body ranks dim sum in Toronto, so list count decides. Picks follow the number of lists that name them. Addresses are the ones two lists agree on. Where lists disagree, no address appears.
