   Great Yum Cha experience in an easily accessible location for people living in the west. I look forward to visiting again.

   We loved introducing friends to yum cha at our favourite Bright Palace. We had such good food, great service and fun.

   Was surprised by the quality of the food here, they were a little slow to start to get the food out, apart from that everything was great, dumplings were delicate and tasty. Had one staff member that was so attentive. I think this will be my new Yum Cha joint, instead of the cbd ones

   Service was slow, but the food was tasty. Ordered the peking duck half price special, nicely presented, skin crispy, great value if you get the specialhalf pricedeal. Also ordered the bright palace fried rice was interesting, mainly prawns with tomato, unlikely a dish I wouldn't personally order again.

   Good dimsums and order a fry seafood dishes for lunch. The mobile phone has bad connection and difficult to use Whatsapp. No Internet is provided in restaurant. Hence, friends should aware of bad Whatsapp issues in this restaurant.

    Gold leaf that was here before was our favourite Yum Cha!. Bright Palace is highly overpriced, slow and the food is OK but not spectacular like Gold Leaf was. This is our 2nd time here. We allowed some errors for the first time as they had just opened but it has gone backwards instead of having improved. The service is agonisingly slow. The tables are too close together so the trolly's can't get through. So besides not enough food coming out of the kitchen, when it does come, it takes so long to go round that it’s all cold. The is also very little variety in the dumplings for the size restaurant. The new decor makes the place uncomfortably loud compared to the previous design and has already started to crumble with the fins on the Styrofoam goldfish on walls now missing their fins. Unfortunately we will not be going back here and instead will each week drive the 45min out of town to Gold Leaf Burwood which despite the slightly rough service, never disappoints with regards to the food and doesn't take 2 hours to only get served 5 highly overpriced average dishes!
