Great food and very fast service, just keep a track of what you order or you’ll end up with a very hefty bill that’ll leave you very confused, especially since there’s no prices on the menu and you’re in a large group. Service can be a bit pushy…

I love this restaurant!
I think this is the best yum char place in Auckland considering the price and the quality of the food.

Its always very crowded so you should book before you go.

The service is alright, but sometime the staff can be incredibly pushy and rude.

Love the yum cha and also fast service and good food – they will go and get something special for you (my partner loves the chicken feet) even if not on the menu. Last time just felt the carpet and chairs could all do with a bit of a clean – huge turnover so probably hard to keep that up.

The service is really poor!!! We live close to Star Cafe Seafood Restaurant so visit there very often. Last Sunday when we went and we had a booking for six people, four of us arrived 5 minutes earlier so we politely said to waitresses pushing around food trolleys that we don’t want any food yet since we are still waiting for our guests to come. There was this one waitress stood behind me and said loudly in Cantonese “some people just came here to sit, not like to order” and another waitress “replied to her” “yes yes”. Now you tell me how to rate Star Cafe Seafood Restaurant restaurant. Can I give a negative star?

One of our frequently visited restaurants. We live in the area and eat here about once a week, mostly for dinner during weekdays (15% off during weekday nights). Hubby and I always order two dishes and there is often enough for left over lunches the next day or so. Love the combination pan fried noodles, the special tofu dish, green bean with minced pork and of course peking duck! The tofu here has always been so very fresh (something which can’t be said for all Chinese restaurants). Tea is always served along with after dinner fruit (apple/orange) or sweet pastry (one of those sweets you would normally find during yum cha) at no charge. Good selection for yum cha too and better cart service (i.e. carts of food actually do come through regularly!).

I love this restaurant. The food is fresh and is full of flavour. The service is fantastic, I am always fed and water within 5 minutes. It is friendly for non Chinese also. It is very cheap. For quality and value this is the best Yum Cha Ive been to in Auckland.

We enjoyed a fantasic yum char here last Sunday. Fantastic prices and great food! Couldn’t ask for better.
