Yueh Tung Restaurant
Yueh Tung Restaurant is a small, cozy eatery in Old Toronto that has been serving Asian dishes since 1986. It offers a mix of traditional and modern recipes prepared with fresh ingredients and bold spices, enjoyed in a welcoming setting with simple, warm decor.
The restaurant was founded in 1986 by an immigrant family originally from India who settled in Toronto. Over the decades, it grew from a tiny spot with just a handful of seats to become an important gathering place in the community.
The restaurant carries stories of immigrant families who brought their home cooking to Toronto and built something meaningful. The way guests gather and share meals here reflects a tradition that connects generations and brings people from different backgrounds together.
Lunch is available Tuesday through Friday, with a rewarding program where nine dishes earn you a free one. Take your time with your meal, as staff work carefully and are happy to explain the menu or offer suggestions.
The restaurant blends influences from different cultures because the founding family came from India and created their own interpretations of Asian dishes. This unusual mix led to creations like Manchurian Chicken, a dish invented specifically for Toronto diners.
