Over dit restaurant

Goed voor speciale gelegenheden
Geschikt voor groepen
Innovatief

R&D is an urban casual restaurant in the heart of Toronto’s iconic Chinatown, headed by first-ever MasterChef Canada winner Eric Chong and his mentor, Michelin-starred restaurant owner Alvin Leung. The stylish interior reflects R&D's dualistic nature: open & abuzz with energy while preserving an intimate atmosphere.

At R&D, eastern dishes meet western style in the form of modern Chinese sharing plates, where classic ingredients are given a vanguard treatment.

We had a family dinner for our daughter’s birthday. The food was excellent. We pre ordered the pecking duck which was amazing. The appetizers and all the other dishes were delicious. The service and ambience were great.

The food was genuinely disappointing. Cocktails were fine, but not worth the price tag. Dishes we ordered: Vietnamese beef carpaccio - was good, the best dish out of everything we ordered. I wish it came with some crispy bread/crostini on the side instead of just the meat by itself, but that might be my personal preference -4.5/5 Kalbi beef bao - the meat was chewy and overall flavours were lacking - 3/5 Brisket spring roll - brisket was tender, but the overall dish was plain and boring, felt like eating a gas station pastry rather than a restaurant dish - 3/5 Lamb spiducci - incredibly disappointing, the skewers were excessively fatty/greasy and flavourless, yuck… couldn’t finish a single skewer - 1/5 Crispy squid - just deep-fried squid pieces, okay overall, nothing notable in terms of flavours, similar to what you’d get at a generic pub - 3/5

Food and service great as always! The restaurant aesthetic and design could use some upgrading as it looks a bit outdated but nonetheless food is great.

We were shocked about how terrible the experience was. We were seated at the table as you enter the restaurant and the first impression was all the stains on the seats. When comes to the food, im very familiar with how these were intended to be cooked but the brussel sprouts were extremely over cooked and burnt. We have the fried rice, very greasy and lack of taste. The lobster dish was actually terrible. The applewood smoke was over powering, the lobster was overcooked and rubbery. The noodles where far from how there we described by the server. Can’t believe this restaurant was in the Michelin guide and clearly there must be some relationship with the chef that drove this recognition because the experience and food was far from expected. The google review of 4.4 is far more accurate and id expect this to lower over time

One of the best meals in the recent times! The Thanksgiving spring roll was a welcome addition to the menu yesterday. The R&D fried rice was absolutely amazing! Will definitely come back. Shoutout to our table’s server Kelsey for a wonderful job.

I got the chance to dine at this place on Wednesday day night. It was nice and quiet. I order the Best Duck in the City, pork & crab siu mai and roasted cauliflower. The duck you have to order in advance. The duck dish was fantastic! The siu mai and cauliflower were also delicious! Definitely would recommend!
