Visited a couple of times for lunch now and been delighted each time. Amazing food, great service and such a choice. More than 75% of diners were Chinese families so you know the food must be good.
They offered the best choice of dim sum I’ve seen outside Londons China Town including chickens feet , tripe , frogs and all the familiar ones too.
The £9:95 3 course lunch was excellent value and did not eat til next morning.
Can’t wait to visit again and try something else .
The rumour I tried something of everyone else’s dishes are unfounded

Our first dinner in edinburgh during our holiday season last new year. love the seafood omelette also their soup, vegetables, chicken and prawn dishes.. with Denny Setiawan
This place has been on the wish list for quite a while but as it’s not in the city centre it always got bumped down the list. However, we made a concerted effort to go and I am glad we did (and we were foolish to have waited so long). We arrived and were seated at a table for two but many of the tables here are set up for larger groups. The place was very busy for a Sunday lunchtime and many families had chosen to dine here. We had specifically come here to try the dim sum, although other Chinese cuisine is available. We had a handy order sheet so we just crossed off the boxes against the things we wanted. We opted for the dim sum combo platter for two, char siu buns and spare ribs in black bean sauce.
There's something about this place, maybe it's the decor or the very traditional layout and style of this restaurant, that makes me feel right at home. It's like stepping in to a Tea House for Yum Cha (dim sum) in Hong Kong. The pink sheets, white table covers, fish tank, and comfy seats.
The staff here are really nice. They look after you, and are quick to re-fill your teapot when it's low or empty, and that's the attention to detail you want in a large place, especially when you have 6-9 people eating and tea just goes!
I've been here for an occasion, a wedding dinner, sunday Dim Sum Yum Cha, normal dinner, min afternoon lunch.. and every time, every service, every dish is so consistently good you can't fail coming here. So much gooooood choice and their egg tarts are only on weekends, mostly Sundays!
Size portions matches their price, some dim sum dishes only contains 3 or 4 bits, so it's great to nibble around the menu without over spending.
My family and I really enjoy going and don't think we'll stop anytime soon. :D
A good Chinese restaurant which offers a lot more traditional Chinese food - as long as you can read and speak Cantonese at least.
Having visited here on three occasions with my ex-girlfriend and her family for lunch, I made the baffling discovery that there was indeed a separate menu from which all of our food was ordered. It was a surreal experience, but also a pleasant surprise which introduced me into new territory of a much trodden cuisine in Scotland.
I remember waiting anxiously for the food to arrive and not knowing what to expect and what did come was very good food. True to Chinese dining standards the food came out as it was ready. The standout for myself were the Chicken Feet, which were just like eating ribs. The rest of the food was pretty unspectacular, but a nice experience.
Quite why there was a different menu in Cantonese I will never know, but the food offered was unique and a good experience to have had.
Extensive menu.
Recommend the dim sum.. flavour and the attention to detail on the shape.
6 of us were absolutely stuffed for around £20 a head.
Excellent service and very tasty food. The service was prompt and efficient throughout. We were grateful for the AC on what was a very warm evening! Spring rolls were crispy and well filled and the crispy chicken with chilli sauce was very tasty.
Definitely a very welcoming and authentic place. You walk in and feel like you’re in the dining room of a wedding.
To start, the waiter (can’t remember his name but he was Malaysian) had a great personality and was very friendly, as were the other waiters.
To start, I tried the shrimp dim sum which was the first time I try dim sum, and they were perfect. Paired with their secret chili sauce (which they wouldn’t sell me), it was a magnificent combination.
For the main course, I had the duck and pancakes. Now let me tell you, this is not the portion of half a duck you would get elsewhere, this is a portion which will definitely fill you up, filled with every piece of the duck including delicious crispy skin. So far I couldn’t find any fault.
The only fault was, that I don’t go there everyday.
Overall I would definitely recommend everyone to try this place for authentic Chinese food.
Authentic Chinese restaurant in town!
Excellent dining place with family and friends. Fresh, delicious food wide options you can choose from the menu. Dim sums are served only up to 17:30
The food comes in big portion really perfect for sharing!
The staffs were absolutely amazing!
I really enjoyed my birthday dinner ❤️🥰
Call to reserve table on busy days to avoid disappointment.
We got a takeaway, the girl at the front desk was very efficient and politely friendly, said it would only take 10 minutes! I waited at the front, standing in the corner and this older gentleman came up to me and pulled out a seat for me, assuring me I could wait there. Felt welcomed even though we weren't hanging around. Good workers and good food, it was delicious when we took it back
This is the best dimsum in Edinburgh, so crowded. All dimsum were delicious.
One of the best chinese restaurants in Edinburgh. I recommend trying out their Dim Sum starters, they are amazing. Main portions are quite generous, but keep in mind that sides (rice) are ordered extra. For drinks you can choose from a wine list (mostly french wines), bottled beer or a few standard soft drinks.
Authentic Cantonese / Hong Kong style cuisine and dim sum that are not easily found elsewhere in Edinburgh.
My favourites are the stir-fried ho fun dishes - beef ho fun & roasted pork belly with ho fun were both great, and I like the texture of ho fun in the UK, more chewy and thicker than that I used to have in Hong Kong.
There is a range of quality dim sum available as well. We particularly love the egg tart (airy crunchy puff pastry and smooth egg custard) and stir fry turnip cake (complimented by slightly chilly XO sauce).
An excellent place to enjoy comfort food.
Delicious...
An amazing experience, excellent place to go if looking for something different to eat, without expending a fortune.
Perfect for a group sharing the experience.
I'll definitely visit again.
Have to say, some of the most delicious Dim Sum that I’ve eaten, & I’ve lived in London for 20+yr. restaurant is not full of frills and fancy but the food an ambiance are what I’m there for. Highly recommended.
