Amazing food options!! One of the better buffets in Toronto!! Much better than Mandarin!! Quality could be better though!! The restaurant does offer you good value for your money as they offer delicacies such as Peking duck and lobster which are rare to find in all you can eat locations. A must visit place to check it off your bucket list.

I can't believe people line up for this over priced garbage food.$45 per person for Mother's Day is price gouging and they know it. Their buffet has limited options and food is mostly bland. The mashed potatoes were extremely watery and looked like slop. The giant tea kettle with green tea is $2.50 but charge an extra $2.50 per cup per person. You're better off just pouring the tea in your water glass and saving the extra money they try to scam out of you.Mannerless people push and shove in there like they haven't seen food in 3 years and the kitchen was slooooow to restock the buffet table. The staff is also rudeThe decor is the only nice thing about this dump.

It is alright for a buffet.I thought there’d be more choices available, but it felt like going to a food court than a place called so grandiose as “Dragon Pearl Buffet.” The food is pretty average and tasted like Chinese takeout (very oily). I came the day they served scallops, but you needed to show them a card (like a scallop coupon) to receive one. It came with one scallop and I was a bit underwhelmed. I was also excited to eat some lobsters that were available, but they were served with scarcity.The desserts were on the mediocre side too. The cakes and pastries available tasted like the packaged ones you can find at the bakery section at grocery stores.The staff were good though. Although there were a handful of people dining already, I never had a dirty plate on my table for too long and servers were around frequently just in case my table needed a drink.Overall, the place is okay.

Peking Duck is great but don’t really go here if you have seafood allergies.

Nice Chinese Buffet overall. Have plenty of options to choose from and lots of seating which works well for large family gatherings or parties. March 2022 Update: Star rating just went down from a 4 to a 3 from a recent visit as the price is quite high now and isn’t justified for the quality of food you’re getting. You’re much better off going to a Chinese a la carte restaurant now as you will get much better food made fresh to order for cheaper. Not much of a good value here anymore unfortunately.

Average chinese restaurant where you can eat delicious food. Lots of chinese food and some are tasty but overall not particularly impressive. The staff is so-so, if there are many visitors, then they did not have time. But overall I recommend it.

The food is not cheap as for their quality. Many options but only a few have good quality. $103 for 2 people with taxes and tip. Not going back...

I really like this buffet. The atmosphere is always great. The staff here have been wonderful and are very attentive. The food is delicious, however I think it was way better pre COVID.Their COVID precautions are on point. They scan your vaccine passport prior to being seated. They give you gloves to wear while getting your food. They have multiple boxes of fresh gloves for you to use when you need it. Everyone is required to wear their mask and use the gloves in the buffet area. The whole process made me feel safe and comfortable.They are a bit on the pricey side, but they do have a great selection of food and dessert options. I love the Peking duck here. By far my favourite menu item.If you are driving here, the parking at the front of the restaurant is limited, however if you drive further in, you’ll see more parking spots available at the back of the plaza.

Pleasent experience, a bit pricey but food quality was good, lots of seafood!

Frozen food were boiled in hot water! They offer lobster and it has absolutely no taste; boiled in hot water! If you only want to fill your belly and don't mind the quality, go for it!
