Had the worst experience there. Service was extremely slow, We saw about 5 types of dumplings in the 45 minutes we were there. One of them tasted like they had been microwaved too many times. The bill came up to $41 for about 5 dishes. Would not recommend it to anyone.

Worse yum cha I had and I'm embarrass that I took my friends there. It should not be rate as four star and the only reason I gave it one star so I can write a review. The sevice was slow and the food are terrible. The dim sum is not fresh and it expensive for three tinny dim sum. The staff there practically got their priority all screw up. We were gave a drink menu instead of food menu and they rather clean their dirty table than serve us drink. Bad experience..will not recommend to anyone.

Worst service in the 12 years I've lived in Melbourne. Agree with the other reviewers. Don't go before show as you'll need to rush like hell and get indigestion at the same time. So disorganised that it took 10min to get the bill which we asked for when got our food an hour after ordering it.

You know how you read bad reviews, and you think, 'it can't be that bad'. Well, this place lives up to the bad reviews. Table service is terrible. They won't make eye contact with you so they don't have to take your order, and the food is less than average for the price. I won't be returning that is for sure!

May as well have warmed up food from the freezer aisle from Coles - actually it's probably where the food came from. Less than ordinary meal and certainly not worth $20 to eat from two small bowls, no plate, not even salad, in fact I had to season the rice with soy sauce to overcome how tasteless the whole thing was. Save yourself some money and buy yourself a sandwich at 7-eleven around the corner. Waste of time. Unless you enjoy waiters topping up your glass of water to infinitum, per sip.
