First time visit for Dim Sum brunch and Chinese New Year celebration and neither disappointed. Great Dim Sum variety and quality - outstanding shrimp balls 🏆 The Lion Dancers were professional and fun - took their time to interact with all the customers. Clean, looks great and Li Wah is in Asia Plaza so you have at least a couple of small fun shops to browse in after your meal. I'll be glad to return to sample other dishes from their large menu.

Was in Cleveland for the weekend and I searched up dim sum. This place came up and I was very excited. Now in Toronto there is ALWAYS line up so I made sure we were there early so we can be one of the first ones. It should’ve been a flag that we got there just before open and the place was dark. No people nothing. We went to the grocery store to kill 5 mins and when we can back it was open. We were the second people seated. They got a star because the service was nice and they had dim sum carts (which isn’t normal any more in Toronto) other than that the food was cold. The only dish I felt was good was the shrimp stuffed eggplant, but the same thing it was cold. I’m sure if it was hot it would’ve been so good. People started coming in at 1030 and the carts were then out and you can tell it was piping hot. Such a waste as we spent a lot for dim sum to be not good.

Amazing dim sum. Crunchy shrimp balls, and the bean curd & shrimp bean curd rolls had such deep rich flavor. The chicken feet were soft and delicious and not spicy. Even using Uber Eats, the food was so good even after travel time.
