Pearl Bayview

Pearl Bayview is the North York sister of the harbourfront room: 291 York Mills Road, all-day dim sum from open to close. Official site pearlbayview.ca posts Monday–Sunday 11:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.–9:00 p.m. (they close the hour between lunch and dinner), phone (416) 226-1233, email pearlbayview@gmail.com. First-timers: treat the 11–4 window as yum cha and the 5–9 window as dinner; do not arrive at 4:15. Har gow and baked BBQ pork buns are the house test in a quieter, mall-adjacent room than Queen’s Quay. Reservations help on weekends. Free plaza parking is the practical advantage over the terminal. Same Pearl group, different clock — confirm the mid-afternoon close before you drive up from downtown.
