Booked the lunch buffet for my friend's bday. It was around $300pp for unlimited dimsum, which honestly sounds reasonable if it weren't the case that they made us wait 45 minutes at the bar despite having a booking. They kept saying that the table will be ready in 10 minutes but it never was, and they only gave us a table when we said we were about to leave.

Booked the lunch buffet for my friend's bday. It was around $300pp for unlimited dimsum, which honestly sounds reasonable if it weren't the case that they made us wait 45 minutes at the bar despite having a booking. They kept saying that the table will be ready in 10 minutes but it never was, and they only gave us a table when we said we were about to leave. They didn't even give us any compensations for the wait.

The dim sum is very standard quality, nothing special about it but it definitely didn't taste bad. However a lot of the items were 'out of stock' despite being a Buffet, (because they said that apparently a table before us ordered everything ) and you had to pay additional for speciality dimsums (which occupied around a third of the menu)

The environment is nice, but the location is a little bit annoying to get to if you are traveling by Public transport, but that doesn't concern me that much.

I hope the restaurant can reflect on their problems
