Friendly service, lovely interior decor and lighting with ultra fast serving time, decent prices and portion sizes!
Sizzling beef came out very prettily, strong pepper smell. Tender vegetables and chewy beef-not the softest but definitely not tough by all means. Just the right amount of flavor without needs for accompanying with rice. 7.5/10
Salted duck not too salty just right, tender meat. Pretty tasty and needn't accompany with rice.
8/10
Fried bread crisp upon bite but I find it a bit too thick and bread like for my taste. Had it with the sweet soy bean milk which was average, just your run-of-the-mill sweet Soy.

Beans had a very strong when brought over and smelt delicious. The mixture accompanying the beans were fabulous and chicken was good as it contained flavor and was not bland.
8/10
Meatball soup fresh watery soup flavor, the meatball was extremely tender and falls apart when spooned, taste was delightful, recommend!
8.5/10
Steamed buns juice was hot, the perfect blend of savory and sweet, the meat soft and succulent and the wrap in no way overpowers the taste of the bun.
8.5/10
Fried bun filled with similar soup to the steamed buns but
less amount, pork filling was again succulent. This time the
bun amount was more but that's a given for the type of bun it is. The bottom is crispy and topped with sesame and added a lovely crunch to the bun.

6 of us throughly enjoyed our meal tonight. Didn't book but there were tables big enough to accommodate us.
If you're looking for silver service, this is not the place however the food was authentic, delicious and downright tasty. BYO with no corkage, bonus!
Despite the reviews on the service, the waitress is actually pretty cool and we even managed to crack a few smiles from her. Reminded me of one of those grumpy aunties at the Marae.

First time trying here. Coming from a Shanghai background, I am familiar with the Shanghai food taste. The wonton here are pretty good, meaty and the broth is a calm seaweed flavour. The xiao long bao I think is just ok, not soupy enough and not that big, but the flavour is not bad. The fried pork bao on other hand was more juicy and better than the xiao long bao. Overall pretty good, although I want to try their sweet and sour fried whole blue cod in a bigger group. Also would like to try a few of their cold dishes as well.
