The food is definitely on the pricey side for Chinese cuisine. Unless you are Chinese or more importantly, familiar with these type of dishes (especially the soup-based ones), you might struggle to know what to order.
The service was good and attractive, but it takes a bit of time for the dishes to arrive, even on a quiet day.
Worth the try if you want to try something different, but I don't think I'll be returning to this restaurant anytime soon.

Portion sizes and taste of the food are not worth the price. Ordered the double steamed soup that is a chef recommendation but it doesn’t taste good barely has any flavour, the portion for the soup is small as well, it’s like a cup-size for a 30$ soup and the cup with the soup was broken, it leaked through the plate under it. Atmosphere and service is okay.

Came here for dinner for the first time and it was a little disappointing. Had preordered ahead of time but still took them 20mins to confirm order - definitely understaffed. The dishes in this review plus one very plain fried rice (not even with meat) came to an eye watering $550 which is exorbitant for Chinese food. I think there’s probably better places that is far cheaper.

Tasty food but a bit expensive. We went in randomly and we were given the vibe that maybe it wasn’t for us considering how authentic it was. Nevertheless the staff helped with our order and it was a really tasty meal. The menu has some hefty items (over $100 a hit) and I feel like it’s perhaps a fancy Chinese restaurant. Felt like a good experience but perhaps a little too much money for what we got.

The soup and steamed rice is hella yummy and wholesome 😋

Had the abalone chicken clam soup for dinner as I was craving for home cooked canto soup. This place really lived up to the expectations and the lap cheong pork rib rice was delicious.

The bean curd veggies was also on point and definitely a great place to go if you are craving for clean canto cuisine.

Soup was lovely, I was pleased I couldn’t taste any MSG. And dessert was also a highlight too (steamed papaya)

Everything was really well made. We really enjoyed it. Bit pricey for what you are getting but the menu is appetising and everything tasted good.

Had a lovely experience here. The entrance looks normal but the interior is nicely decorated with Chinese elements. The restaurant is pretty empty on Sunday night. We had the coconut fowl soup, the Budda delight soup, two fish dishes, lamb, chicken, pumpkin rice. The soup were good but the portion was small for its price. The rice didn't look very appealing but I like it. The other dishes are so so.
