Casa Imperial Fine Chinese Cuisine

We have a customized set lunch for 10 people. No shark fin, alaska king crab, crispy baby pig etc., only standard peking duck, lobster, vegetables, fish etc with 1 bottom of red wine. The food is good, the seafood is fresh and the service is friendly. However, very expensive for $910 after tax and tips!Is it worth? Well, I think one time is enough.

Ordered $100 for two people. Had lots of yummy left overs. Every dish is perfection. Coming out piping hot....sometimes too hot!

It's a bit tight as for a wedding party with 12 tables. Food is average and overall too salty. With the high price range and will expect better quality of food but it wasn't. Service is good and can do better as they are charged high end price.

~$30 + Tip ppAccepts Visa (Cash preferred)Sunday DinnerReservations recommendedThis restaurant is a landmark. Located at Steeles and Warden, most people will know this place by description as that house turned restaurant although I suspect few people have eaten there. I'm guessing because the pricing is a bit too "aspirational" and I haven't heard many verbal recommendations for this place.Went there recently for dinner. The food served is good quality Chinese food and they certainly get points for presentation (Chinese food in Toronto is generally very good, with little or no attention put into how it's served). For instance, Casa Imperial had the most well presented seafood bird's nest dish I've ever seen (a personal favourite dish of mine). However, considering this is Toronto there are a plethora of much cheaper, much better alternatives.The old Victorian paintings on the wall make this place feel like Hong during the peak of British colonialism. They also try to imitate European/French style serving (meals portioned out, ladies first from the left) as much as they can, which is a bit awkward given that Chinese meals are generally more "family style". They get points for attention to detail, but it feels like a clumsy imitation. Other than feigned attempt at European style serving, it certainly has all the hallmarks of a typical Chinese restaurant waitstaff.Not sure which demographic this serving style is supposed to appeal to but there seems to be a disconnect between the food and the atmosphere. Normally, that's not a big deal, but the price seems to reflect the opinion that there is an unwarranted premium associated with that. Go somewhere else.

Very expensive but good. Not worth the price though. Ordered a 4 course meal and portion is medium size. Should worth no more than $50-60 but total with tip in was $310!!!
