    Not sure if its because I'm Chinese, but table service was pretty poor. Some manners goes a long way to keep customers. If it wasn't because the other restaurants were full, I wouldn't have come here

    yum cha! Really good! A bit more expensive than in Chinatown but worth it!

    $8+ for a plate of 4 very average prawn har guos. LOLOLOL. Walk down to Ho's Dim Sim 3-4 blocks down on Pitt instead. Sure you won't get the same ambience, but you won't feel like a hooligan either.

    If you like anglicised Chinese food you'll love it. All the typical stuff crispy beef, prawn dumpling, char sui. Very few Asian diners.

    The staff here are very rude even by the most generous standard. Dinner a la carte dishes are of low quality, and to a more discerning eye it is clear that they are trying to cut costs. Avoid!

    Supposedly they don't take bookings for weekday lunch so get there by 12 noon to avoid a long wait!

    If you're using this as a wedding venue, make sure its for 150 pax or less! Would probably make it a lot easier to deal with staff.

    Make sure you leave room for desserts: mango pancakes and mango soup are delish!

    Recently reopened (mc'd by me), this 500 seater yum cha destination rivals nearby Palace Chinese and perfect for a mid-shopping refuel.

    Fast service, good food. I'd go back for the bbq pork and duck, steamed greens and tea!

    Nothing special about the yum cha experience here. Want great dumplings, brave Din Tai Fung in the food court downstairs.

    Check your bill - was charged for additional beers which did not order. The managers, Alice (+Peter) and the team r attentive @ maintaining high level of service and responds promptly to any issue.

    Food has gone downhill! Loads of MSG should really ask for the previous dim sim chefs to come back!!!
