CHINESE RESTAURANT AWARDS · 2026

ELITE 30

CANADA

The 2026 Elite 30 CANADA reflects a more inclusive and richly diverse picture of Chinese and Taiwanese dining across the country — from longstanding institutions and regional traditions to a new generation shaping how these cuisines are experienced today. We invite diners to explore these 30 restaurants, travel beyond the familiar, and taste the recommended dishes selected by our Taste Advisors. And the journey does not end at 30: discover the 20 additional restaurants recognised among this year’s Top 50 Honourees, each offering another reason to explore Canada’s evolving Chinese and Taiwanese dining scene.
