Grand lakes is your run of the mill Chinese banquet restaurant with cookie cutter decor and atmosphere; it could be located in almost any part of the world, but on this occasion was Unionville (Ontario).This is not the type of restaurant you would expect groups of non-chinese to visit. Infact, I am almost always the only Caucasian in the entire restaurant when I frequent these establishments.We turned up in a medium sized group for this type of restaurant (9) with no kids/babies on this occasion. All of the staff is Chinese (unsurpringly) and mostly Cantonese, although some speak fluent English. On to the menu, which was available in both Chinese and English, which I appreciated because it i...
Family of 16 celebrating a Birthday. We made reservations and they put us all on one table which is good. The best dish is the two course Peking Duck dinner. Other dishes are OK. Service was not so good, not enough staff. Maybe, someone called in sick. We had to keep calling the waiter for service. We got complimentary pork bone soup and sweet tapioca soup dessert after the meal.
We went there as a family especially for their dimsum. The food was good, the service was so-so - you had to remind the restaurant staff each time you ordered something. The biggest issue was that most of the staff only spoke their language so to make them understand what we wanted was difficult. Take someone with you who speaks their language and you will have a great meal :)
The food at grand lakes is good! It may not be of the highest quality or presentation but it is of great value for what you pay. The lobsters and the sweet and sour pork and the Peking duck are always our favourite. Ken is a great head server and he is always helpful with recommending dishes for us to try.

Really good Dim Sum with some lovely seafood options..but not sure it's worth the wait. If you go on a Sunday get there early as the wait times an get long.
We visited this restaurant for a fixed price dinner menu, which included approximately 7 dishes. Unfortunately, I only enjoyed one of the dishes.
All the foods are very salty. The fish is overcooked, the lobster and the crab are not fresh. Service is terrible! Will never go back again!
Considering what you pay for dim sum, this place is not bad. Good value. Service is good. Cleanliness is so so.

I went to this place for dim sum on a weekend morning. The interior decor looks outdated.
I would like to review the dinner at this restaurant, not the dim sum.
