i brought a party to this resaurant for my birthday and it would be the worst meal i have had in a restaurant the meal was cold , tough meat, fish was off, the nicest part of the whole meal is when we left. we i asked them could they warm the meals up nothing changed and when i said we would never go back there he shruged his shoulders as to say i dont realy care

this is easily the best Chinese restaurant in tauranga!!!!!!!(I only do A La Carte and yum cha at dinner time, no buffet for me…)
I don’t know what the people who gave bad review are talking about…because I have never had bad customer service or food from there and yes I have been to other yum cha restaurant before;) oh and in addition to that I have taken my chinese friends there and they liked it so it may say some thing…

We eat Yum Cha all the time and have been to many restaurants and I have to say that that this would be the most disgusting Yum Char restaurant I have been to. The roast pork was most definantly not fresh, the dumplings were gross and they didn’t have a lot of the food that they have advertised on there big menu banner, the only fresh food that was cooked right there and then was the deep fried food. The lady at the front counter was rude and abrubt and had no patience or people skills. I would not recommend this restaurant at all!!!

Yum char meat dishes were full of gristle and fat.
Dumplings way undercooked.
Need to change cooking oil on a more regular basis and lower prices for this type of sub standard Chinese food.
Probably more atmosphere (and better yum char) on the moon!

Serving chinese dishes, soups, salads and deserts.and duck ,roast duck, yummy, yummy.Also, lunch buffet just $13.00,incredibly good value.

Not much variety on dim sum (Yum Char)to choose from, highly over priced, food taste average. If you’ve been to a yum char before ‘you’ll know what I am talking about.

Have been several times to Yum Cha – mmmmmmmmm ….. fantastic. Will definately go again, its my pick for Mothers day and birthday choices but need to book for a Sunday.

A friend and I stopped in for a meal before a show, excellent food and service at a reasonable price, a great selection too. I will be returning soon. Must go and try the yum char! really worth a try

Yum Cha! April 2009.

Great selection, although if busy, they will attend to ‘asian’ and ‘larger’ tables first, however, you do not get forgotten.

Some dishes can be very expensive, but all in all, a GREAT place for yum cha !

Did not feel rushed to leave, atmosphere met expectation.

Total for 3 adults $110, $90 and total for 2 adults $65 = so on average around $30 – $35 each.

Will be partaking again.

We had a great authentic meal. All of our dishes were very good. We were very, very pleased to find Peeking Duck on the menu which tasted great and was well presented. We live in Whakatane and will be back to Tauranga just to eat here again.

Our favourite Chinese restaurant in Tauranga. Friendly staff, nice ethnic atmosphere. Would be nice to have some more variety of lunch menu, but the dinning menu is very extensive and very exciting.

Visited on 27 March 2008. Service was good. Food was ok; sweet & sour pork was tough, Sechuan beef was good and so was seafood with brocoli, and mushrooms with cabbage. Overall, so-so.
