Probably my favorite Asian restaurant. I have been coming here for years and never get sick of it. The service is friendly and efficient and the food, amazing. The Peking duck, prawn siu-mai, pork dumplings, BBQ pork steamed buns, meat spring rolls, beef ribs, black bean and pork mince green beans are a must have. My eyes are always too big for my stomach when eating here!
Yummy place for yum char, steamed dumplings is always yummy, pastry doesn't stick to plate like most places. Carpet needs re do but overall food is yummy and staff are friendly and get food in minutes when you sit down. Yum char the best on the shore, great quality
If you're after a nicer version of Chinese takeaways for a casual weeknight dinner, I'd highly recommend this place.
We came here at 7:30pm on a Monday and it wasn't busy at all. Service was good (we had the super friendly lady-boss), food was nice, and you get good portions for the price. Sometimes they give you complimentary vegetable soup as a starter for dining in, too.
I love their Yang-Zhou fried rice (has bits of BBQ pork and prawn). It's not as salty or over-fried as the fried rice from the takeaways.
Their fried squid appetiser was alright; I would've liked the batter to be crunchier. It's nice as a snack while you're waiting – but not as nice as calamari rings + aioli from a Western restaurant.
One of the best places to have yum char in North Shore. Because it is one of the best, it can get quite busy and hectic, leading to disorganisation and disappointment. I suggest you to get there early (11AM) and just chilax before mad lunch rushes.
Best yum cha ever!!
My family have been coming here for years, it honestly never fails us. Consistency is definitely what you get here which we love.
Could never fault it 😁

Been here few times for yum char and dinner. Food is cooked fast and taste good. It is the usual hearty chinese food which enjoyed together with family. You always order a lot and tapao (pack the leftoevers) for lunch the next day. Service is so so, don't expect royalty treatment as they always so busy. Rice and tea cost about $2 pp extra for each. They gives you complimentary soup and fruits/dessert when you dined in for dinner though.
Had an awesome dinner here. Generous portions and tasty food, and not that expensive either. Nice and clean and quite a cool view of Massey uni. Super fast too. I'll be back to try their yumchar next time.
Good food for our dinner. Came here several times and the food anyways meet our expectations. Service is not very efficient mainly because they always seem to lack manpower but definitely not too bad given the situation. Would recommend this restaurant for authentic Chinese food.
We live close-by and it's a good place for yumcha
Spacious and food comes quick so we don't have to wait long till we find something we like
It's very busy and unfortunate some don't speak English but we usually manage fine :)
Clean interior
The Northern Sea Village is a good little Yum Cha spot looking over Albany Mega Centre.
Me and my son are huge Yum Cha fans so we try a lot of places and this place is a cheap eat, always fresh, food comes out real fast and it helps with English speaking Chinese staff.
I'm a big fan of crab and these guys do a crab sumi as many other places don't.

A year ago the lady manager was very ill and her staff were not following processes.... She was very frustrated and had no support. We took the time and patience to ask her when we first saw how upset she was at them.
We have been a patron for over 4 years since moving to Albany, and have seen the changes through the business; the yum Cha selection of food is Hong Kong style and taste is as it should be. Lovely!!!
We can't comment about the main meals as have not ordered those as we have always enjoyed the yum-Cha.
We have taken the time to build a mutual relationship wherever we patron and come to understand how difficult it is to run a restaurant when during peak times everyone wants everything "now". So if you are rushing with everyone during peak time, pls be patient and have consideration as well. From our observation, patrons themselves are not friendly but expect waiting staff to be?
Currently the lady manager has battled her sickness and she is getting better; we are very happy for her. Her current regular staff are mature and helpful. Yes sometimes the kitchen takes a bit to bring the ordered items out; but it's worth the wait and patience.
What we love most is that; they are able to speak English and if patrons lend a smile first and be courteous; wonders happen.
The portion of food can sometimes be smaller than other times, we are not sure why. So perhaps consistency could be worked on. We have brought many visitors and friends to this place as we continue to support our local businesses.
Had a lunch here with few people from work and had a good service and food. Had a good experience but would have been great to have a background music to add a little touch to the food and atmosphere.
Yum cha is very nice. Price is reasonable. The environment is average, weekend lunch time are always crowded.
Lovely dim sam. Definitely one of the best one in Auckland i have had. Great and not over cooked dumplings.
This is an excellent place to take the family for dinner or go for a date. The food is good and it has a very nice atmosphere.
Good service, great food and decently priced. Good yum char selection during the day
Love the food, I come here every couple of weeks, great service
