Went on new years eve after it was recommended. Terrrible experience the food came out cold, was delivered to our table the same time as our first drinks, obviously the microwave wasn't working properly. One dish we couldn't even eat it was a chilli and pepper chicken dish couldn't taste either tasted more like it had been dropped in the charcoal ashes and then served. Terrible service to many tables. We were in and out within an hour. Would never go back. No entrees and only 2 drinks for 5 people $175 definitely over priced for what you get.
Sunday morning yum cha. Good idea. We were disappointed by the food. Their "yum cha" was what was listed as entrees on their normal menu. The menu there was a limited selection. Most items we had had a consistent oily taste. The spring rolls dripped oil. Even the spicy tofu had the same bland oily taste and definitely no spice!. We left feeling ill and it "only" cost us $170 for 2 adults and two children plus tip as the service was good.
Good points: Food was good overall. Waiters and Waitresses were helpful. Negative points: Four of us in the group waited 15 minutes before calling someone to our table so we could place our oprder. Wine was utterly terrible. $90 for a back vintage Cab sav and it was off. This was due to it not being stored properly and was subject to too much heat over time. Very Disapointed.
Staff first debated our opinion instead of trying to just help us. Eventually after us threatening not to pay for the wine he substituted it for a $20 bottle whereby he still charged us the $85. Very poor effort !
