Everything was perfect as usual just a very noisy birthday party going on in restaurant next door. So we enjoyed Chinese food to the sounds of Zorba, it wasn’t the worst just noisy but there’s really was nothing to do about it other than smile.

WE HAVE BEEN HAVING YUM CHA AT RED EMPEROR FOR MANY MANY YEARS. WE RETURN AS WE LIKE THE YUM CHA OFFERING. THEY ARE ALWAYS HAPPY TO MAKE ITEMS FOR US THAT ARE NOT CURRENTLY ON THE TROLLEYS THAT WE REALLY APPRECIATE. THEY EXPANDED THE RESTAURANT SEATING AREA QUITE A WHILE AGO OUT IN TO THE BALCONY AREA. WE SAT NEAR A WINDOW AT THE END OF WHAT WAS PART OF THE BALCONY AREA. THE DRAPED AWNING ABOVE OUR HEADS HAD LOADS OF POLLEN/LEAVES IN IT AND THERE WAS QUITE A DRAFT FROM THE END THAT WAS NOT ATTACHED. MAYBE THIS IS A SEASONAL SRPING ISSUE. IT ALL LOOKED A LITTLE UNLOVED.

Very good service but lack of variety in Yum Cha. Too many prawn dumplings, and other prawns. No beef, only three chicken choices.

Good service, nice food, pity that they squeezed in a larger party , table for 4 was made 8 in close to where we were sitting that were very loud and we had to yell to talk over them. From then it was not enjoyable

We spent over 300 and was then asked by the waiter to leave a tip. A disappointing end to a lovely lunch with special friends

Web site needs the phone number (call link isn’t working), the address for best street access (beside the Langham) and a mud map showing how to get from there to the restaurant.
