"Staff were careless in clearing plates and somehow spilled sauce TWICE - once onto all our napkins, and worse straight onto my mum and sister’s jeans and handbag. No help was given to clean the mess except a few napkins - by which point the sauce had already soaked through their clothes. At any dim sum place I don’t expect too much from the waitstaff - but customer service here was clearly nonexistent. We were given the wrong tea, and while this may have been an honest mistake no one bothered to correct it. Moreover, I understand things get busy, but the dishes we ordered took one HOUR to come out. Two of our guests had to leave before we finished because things were just taking too long. In the end, the rest of us decided to leave without getting four of our dishes. Vegetarians are not catered for and at the bottom of the priority list, with dishes arriving toward the end of the meal - meaning one of our guests sat without eating for most of the time. Getting only 10% off the bill is unacceptable for an experience like this. An absolute waste of time and money that ruined our Sunday afternoon. We won’t be back."

"Tasty food and excellent friendly service. The home-made tofu with button mushrooms and vegetables was delicious. The sweet sour pork could have been a little crispier but it was tasty nonetheless. The only disappointment was the Shanghai red bean pancake, which was not very authentic. A big plus for me is that they serve dim sum at night!"

"Friendly, fantastic and tastes authentic! Absolutely ecstatic to have found this hidden gem. After countless long business trips to Hong Kong it was always sad to come home and have to wait until my next trip for good dim sum. No more! This place is the best! Decent prices, friendly service and the taste is superb. Highly recommend. I visited around 10:30am and the ambience was very nice, not too busy."

"Super good. I haven’t had authentic tasting Chinese food in a long time. I was a bit worried about portion size due to some of the reviews, but the vegetarian stuff was huge. I got hot n sour soup, Singapore style tofu (had chicken actually, which wasn’t described, but I did wonder why it didn’t have a ‘V’) and vegetarian noodles & they all had so much flavour. For $50 it will feed me for three large meals. Update: we ordered again with a friend and he said it was the best he’s had in Perth. The spices and pepper squid was also the best squid dish I’ve ever tasted. Vegetarian San choy bow was outstanding."

"3.5 stars Relatives tried yum cha & dim sum here before, and they said dim sum was very good. They booked a banquet of 3 round tables. I haven't tried Dim Sum yet. Need to come back for dim sum or other dishes. The chef came from Guangdong (廣東). Environment: plenty of carparks. Same as former decorations. Not very packed. --- 7/10 Service: the owner and wait persons were nice. Served fast. Most dishes almost came at the same time. The owner distributed the soup into small bowls unevenly - half full of 2 bowls (we didn't request that, and I did the rest of soup). Slightly chaotic when changing clean plates for desserts. --- 7.2/10 Food: They pre-ordered some tailor-made dishes for the banquet. Some dishes were out of menu. The chef forgot our requests. Slightly pricey. Normal presentation. According to the sequences: - Prawn Crackers: requested for kids. Free and crispy, but some flakes on the bottom. - Seafood Soup: There were small diced shrimps, more (larger pieces) squids and a lot of enoki mushroom (stems only) in the soup. --- 5/10 - Chicken with Ginger & shallot sauce: The dipping sauce was very good. The children was undercooked for us (we requested well done). Sent back to kitchen to recook. It's still good in texture --- 6/10 - Salad Spare Ribs: Not in the usual menu. It's like deep fried pork ribs mixed with Mayonnaise. It's not our version/ interpretation of Salad Spare Ribs. The worst was "no meat" --- 4/10 - Noodles with Prawns in Butter sauce, 1.5 serve: it's not traditional E-fu noodles. It's just an egg noodles, but ok. There were 15 well-cooked prawns. Better use larger plate for larger serve. The best dish. --- 8/10 - Pad Fried Toothfish glazed with soy sauce: poor presentation. The toothfish steak was too thin for deep fry. --- 7/10 - Fried Wild Rice with Wagyu Beef and Shrimp in Hot Stone Bowl: well cooked. Beef and shrimps were finely chopped. Could taste the wagyu beef only in my 2 small bowls of rice. I couldn't find shrimp meat in mine. Better not too finely chopped of the beef and shrimp. However, my aunty told that they had requested no beef. --- 7.7/10 - Homemade Egg Tofu with Mushrooms, 1.5 serve: Egg tofu was silky. Not enough sauce and mushrooms. Ate them separately --- 7.3/10 - Beef with Black Pepper Sauce: normal presentation and portion.Tender. Not very strong flavor of black pepper but ok --- 6/10 - Mixed Vegetables in Taro nest: not in the menu. Small portion. It looked great in mixed vegetables when served. It had snow fungus. But a lot of hard black ear mushrooms on the bottom. Taro nest was not good looking. --- 5.5/10 - Shanghai Pan-Fried Red Bean Pancakes with Ice Cream: not in the menu. Well presented. Not the usual rectangular shape. Crispy outside. Prefer a bit more red bean paste filling, but ok for free. --- 7.3/10"
