The story
Toki is a Chinese restaurant at Leylaty, Al Malik Road, in Al Khalidiyyah, Jeddah, rated 12 by Gault&Millau in 2026. The Michelin Guide lists it as Recommended the same year.
Platter service and dim sum give the dining room a family, sharing style. Tables sit fairly close together but are well laid. Staff wear traditional dress, and the refined ceramics add to the charm of the place.
The crispy tiger prawns are good quality, spiced and finished with a sweet pink vinegar sauce. A wagyu bun with crispy duck skin is the showier plate and less convincing. The najel is better, prepared Cantonese style with ginger. The Chinese noodles alongside are well treated. Mocktails and seven varieties of tea complete the drinks side.

History
A Chinese restaurant of good standing, rather refined, even if the platter service and dim sum also give it a family and sharing style ; the tables are fairly close, but well laid, the traditional service dress reinforces the credibility, and the crockery, with refined ceramics, contributes to the charm of the place. Crispy tiger prawns of good quality, well spiced with a sweet pink vinegar sauce, followed by a wagyu bun with crispy duck skin, a rather snooty ensemble and less convincing than the najel, prepared Cantonese style, spiced up with ginger, and which would benefit from not being dipped in a rather basic soy sauce, despite the Chinese noodles on the side, which are well treated. Mocktails and seven varieties of tea to accompany.
