This place is phenomenal - the food, the atmosphere, the service. Everything was so unbelievably incredible, I wanted to personally thank the chef. Each dish was so flavoursome and enjoyable to eat. We tried a few different things and found it impossible to pick a sole favourite.

Great food, highly recommend their duck fried-rice, lamb cutlets, and fried ice-cream for dessert. Can get busy and quite noisy at night, however ambience is amazing, has a romantic feel to it with the candles and soft-dim lighting. Cocktails are great, for a mini fire-show go for the Dragon Cocktail. Definitely a restaurant I'd go to once-in-a-while to treat myself as it gets pretty pricey. Overall, a nice boujee place to eat on a night-out !

Came here last week with a 9:45 booking. My friend and I were only about 5 minutes late and when we got to the front desk there was a group in front of us about to be seated. It took them a few minutes before they were seated and my friend and I were served. I was told by the lady at the front that we were 10 minutes late and that our table had already been given to someone else. I accepted her response thinking it had been over 10 minutes but I then looked at my phone and it was only 9:54. We then proceeded to wait for about 40 minutes, during this time another group showed up with a 10pm booking. As they were shown to a table I checked my phone and it was 10:09pm, the same amount of time it took for us to be served and deemed “late”. I think this was extremely unfair and they should have at least made some sort of compensation for it. We were finally seated at 10:30 after a waitress had to ask a table multiple times to leave because their 90 minutes was up. My friend and I ordered a cocktail, hers came out very quickly and mine only came out by the time my friend finished her cocktail and was about to order another one. My food came out before my cocktail and the rest of the food came out about 15 minutes later. Food was great, but definitely did not make up for the service issues. I also understand that it’s more of a bar setting but there was a large group getting way too carried away with very loud singing and getting up and dancing which ruined the atmosphere for everyone else and they weren’t told to sit and quieten down.

Highly recommend walking to this restaurant as there are so many dumpling choices. The restaurant is cozy, the dumplings are delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful. My partner had the pork and chive dumplings and I had the vege dumplings. We couldn't decide which was better as they were both juicy and very tasty. The cocktails are well mixed as well. Overall great food, great vibe and good service. The food and drinks are also well presented, well priced. Can't wait to go back.

Upbeat music (maybe a tad too loud) and a really nice, dark interior make this is a really fun spot to get a good meal. The highlights were definitely the dumpling dishes over the noodles or stir fry.

Food was amazing and servings were big with pretty good pricing, cocktails were meh, the Rabbit tasted like cough medicine. The service was okay but nothing special. We also had to wait a long time in between getting our mains which was disappointing as we got the fried rice about 10 minutes before our other main which left us waiting as we were eating the two dishes together. The ambience was nice if you're looking for somewhere to go before a night out or with a big group as the music is loud and its also quite dark inside. Would definitely go again simply for the delicious range of dumplings!

Loved this place. The food was amazing and the setting of this restaurant is quite lovely. They did however seem to be massively understaffed and there were multiple service issues . Would go back tho.

This place serves Modern Chinese cuisine. I came here on a busy Friday night so make sure that you book ahead of time! Must try their elegant entree and pork dumplings.
