I cannot praise this restaurant enough. Hands down best yum cha around. Wide range of choices delivered by solicitous staff on shining trolleys. Gives a grand experience. My table companions were running late and the staff were supportive when they finally arrived helping to settle the children and ensure the stressed parents were able to settle in . The manager also checked on our parking arrangements and went the extra mile to go find our car and put money in the meter for us. What can I say gold standard service and amazing food. U will definitely be back and recommend to all I know. Thanks for all that you do

Excellent food, and superb wine list by the bottle. Relatively minor quip: Wines served by the glass were more glou glou for the most part(as is often the case). Would have loved to see the option to have something Coravined and offered by the glass or carafe - or maybe at least offer some 375s? Too bad I was not there with a large party so we could order a couple of bottles.
