Mr Lau's Dim Sum Bar + Restaurant in Warrington

The crab croquettes were not very nice, luke warm and gooey. I suspect they are frozen. They tasted odd. The mains we ordered were both very nice and plentiful. The waitresses were all very nice and helpful. The price was a little steep.

Service poor when busy, but can’t fault the food.

Food was nice,but slightly expensive and don't make the mistake and go the wine bar next door,you have to go up stairs.

Amazing food, Service and Delicious cocktails ❤️ Would 💯 recommend and will return!!

Very disappointed. Service was slow and indifferent. We sat with just rice for ages before the meals came. Prawn crackers - tiny portion to share between 3 people. Soup was completely tasteless - like hot water. £7 extra for a side of roughly 10 chips! Small portions. Overpriced. Approx £50 each for a less than average meal. The menu is so vast. Should concentrate on doing fewer dishes really well. Also pricing or portion size needs looking at. Nice place for drinks and dim sum at the bar. Better places to eat in Warrington. My advice is to be well aware of all the extras before ordering. Mains are around £18 to £25 plus an extra £6 or £7 for rice or chips. Choose one main meal and don't bother with starters. We were a party of 5. No one really enjoyed their meal and left hungry. Bland. At best it was average. Had better.

Nice food and atmosphere as usual, but unfortunately the prices on the menu are just way too high for what you get therefore I unfortunately stopped going as much as I used to. Will definitely return again but only when there is an offer on otherwise it is just too expensive for what you get. Would be 5 stars if it was not for the astronomic prices. Food quality of takeaway while prices are astronomical.

Extremely average at best. Set dinner. Crackers tasted stale. Soup ok. Ribs inedible. Steak satay no flavor. Non set menu looked good enough. Some dishes boiling. Some cold.

Hubby and I are regular visitors and yesterday enjoyed the lunchtime offer, adding duck to our choice. Staff attentive, food delicious and open kitchen so you can see dishes being cooked. We’ll definitely be back.

Came here for a family meal. Could have got the same quality of food at a local takeaway for a fraction of the price. Atmosphere was good in the place and the staff was friendly enough. The toilets were not clean, and the bins were overflowing with paper towels in the mens toilets. The food is a little overpriced for what it is, in my opinion. However, I think if you're in town and on a night out and fancy a meal beforehand and don't mind spending, this is the place for you. Good location.

Food was outstanding, hot and very tasty. Jen the Waitress was very very helpful and very knowledgeable and very chatty happy and smart. 😁

Good food but small portions, pretty expensive

Very disappointed over priced chip shop food £100 for two people . All deep fried rubbish place looked good lots of staff but food rubbish bland deep fried cooks not ( chefs ) would I recommend of go again ((((( sorry never ever

I visited this place for food with family on a Saturday Evening and it was extremely poor. The food was very poor quality and did not taste the best . I sent my main back and swapped it which unfortunately was no better. The restaurant and bar was very quiet with no atmosphere. In summary I'm not sure if this has changed ownership as it is the first time in a few years I have visited and will definitely not be back. Unfortunately in my opinion there are now many nicer places to eat in Warrington especially with the prices being expensive here.

Lovely place food excellent service impeccable

Great Restaurant doesn't look much from outside but wowed when inside! Delicious food, chilli beef is brilliant!!! Friendly service !

Side dish was missed, overpriced for chinese fair.

Today, a family of six had an early dinner, and everything was very delicious. The only reason was that the pine nut fish was cut incorrectly, and I had to go back to the kitchen to add a little more heat after going on stage. I guess it’s because the food culture of the Orientals and the British is different. The requirements are different!

Chinese is my favourite food and Mr Lau's is my favourite Chinese restaurant. The food is so good I can't stop eating even when I know I'm full. Staff are always attentive and polite. We had messed up our booking but the concierge was very understanding and managed to squeeze us in despite the restaurant being very busy. I love the vibe in here, deep house beats with spacious vocals gently pumping away in the background ever so subtly increasing in volume as the evening progresses. Not cheap, typically around £50 per person for two courses and drinks but always the perfect treat!

We went a lot to this place last year as a couple for are dates- we haven’t been again this year with being so busy with life , but I’m just giving some reviews I’ve missed to do. As me and my partner are foodies we love to give good feed back about food and not so good if we don’t enjoy it. This place is so unquie . We love coming for food - we have to be in the mood tho, but we do love the range of food they offer here as we love different food , you have a cocktail bar down stairs called Emily’s which we usually go into first , then make are way up stairs for food, the food is just unreal and you can watch everything being cooked as the kitchen it open too see, dim sum is made fresh, we love the dim sum here , better then being abroad . The cocktails up stairs are also amazing . We love the range of food they service on the menu - food has much flavour - nice and calm and relaxing feel inside too!

Wonderful decor and friendly efficient staff, helpful in choosing our menu and wine choices.The food was wonderful,nicely presented and super tasty We had a mixed steamed and crunchy dim sum starter and salt and pepper spare ribs. For main course we had a duck dish, sea bass, and prawn noodles all were and fresh and the portions were so big we took doggy bags home.

Food was bland, not a great choice of wine. Had to send 1 meal back it was disappointing. Over priced for what we had will NOT be returning. By 9.30pm the place was empty which explains it all.

Visited for the early diners deal, it’s a fantastic offer with choices that suited all of our family. Food was piping hot, cooked fresh in the open plan kitchen. Staff were very friendly and attentive, in particular Catherine who served us. We look forward to visiting again soon.

Been a regular here for years and put up with the expensive prices and frequent missing or wrong orders as the food was good but recently the food has gone down hill. If it’s not cold then it tastes like crap. Will stick to my local for better food and cheaper too.

Food was good but ridiculously expensive. £5 for a side of plain rice you have to order alongside your main otherwise you would just get meat and sauce. Staff were also really nice

Was staying in Warrington for a few days and visited this quality restaurant for 2 nights running. Excellent quality of food and service. Highly recommended.

We had the lunchtime menu the food was excellent staff very friendly nice atmosphere will be going back.

food service fantastic but the choice of music was awful sounded like someone was building a shed bang bang bang what a shame much to loud but I will be returning sorry

Terrible service, meal was served far later than others whom I was eating with, requested water 5 times before receiving. Inattentive and sloppy, overpriced menu for what you got. Would not return

Lovely venue , great service and fantastic food !! The waiter recommended a main course as I was stuck for choice and he wasn’t wrong !!! Lunch time menu is great value for money and very filling !!

You can enjoy traditional Chinese cuisine in a comfortable and high end atmosphere which served by a team of high calibre chefs and waiters.

Restaurant and atmosphere was lovely, food was very nice. However, we found the service rushed, and the food arriving 5 minutes after ordering was far to quick for my liking.

Always excellent food, full of flavour, reasonable portion. Meat is always beautifully tender. Service is attentive but not bothersome. A real favourite.

Came with the family for my birthday lunch. Service was flawless, attentive yet not overbearing. Food was amazing. Could not fault anything at all.

Came with the family for my birthday lunch. Service was very attentive without being overbearing. food was amazing. there was no rushing us, felt very at ease. everywhere was spotless, clean and tidy. would highly recommend

Long time since I last visited. But was not disappointed From a helpful waiter, relaxed ambiance , food simply the best And great value for money We recommend to all

Visited Mr Laus many times and it’s always fantastic food and great service. The prawn toast is to die for. Can’t wait to come back.

An unexpected visit. It was absolutely wonderful. Food and service was brilliant, great portions, great quality, would easily recommend and definitely would go back.

Great spot for food. Staff really nice and lots of food options. Good prices. Will be back!

I have reviewed Mr Laus before however I am such a regular I feel it deserves an update! My Husband and I often come here for dimsum on a Sunday. It's always excellent. We order far too much, take a doggy bag home and then pass out on the sofa in a food coma! My favourite is the siu long bao, my Husbands is the char siu cheung fun (you don't often see this on menus). Others that are top notch are the prawn toast, fan gor, har gau, siu mai.... however all of it is really really good. We usually order a (not from!) singapore vermicelli also and it's honestly the best I've had - I have lived in Hong Kong and I think Mr Laus Singapore Vermicelli beats any I had there hands down. Service is always really friendly and we like sitting in the bar area as the atmosphere is good. It's not as cheap as other Chinese resraurants but it's worth it.

Amazing food and great service as I’ve come to expect from Mr Laus. Great portions and a doggy bag to take home

Amazing meal, the wait staff are a bit slow but the corner booth we were in was such s great seat, we all didn't mind waiting.

Amazing food and great atmosphere! I would definitely come back again. The staff were very welcoming and tended to our every need!

Absolutely my fave restaurant in Warrington, amazing food, amazing staff, me and my family always enjoy a night out here, great atmosphere, families welcome, would highly recommend.

Great place. Fantastic curry ect ect great service. 😁😁🥗🍾.Shaun an snapper. Xxx Shaun blowing up hot bottle with mymouth.

Awesome food, excellent service and good value for money.

We booked in advance to ensure a table as it’s really popular. Service was so quick and the staff were really accommodating and lovely, can’t praise them enough. Food was incredible, I’ve never had a bad meal there - the beef and pork belly were cooked to perfection, and the wonton soup was served piping hot. Amazing place, wonderful staff and beautiful food!

Ordered take away and paid restaurant rates, £56 for 2 main courses and 3 plain rice. Food was excellent, I would recommend the restaurant but advise against what is an expensive takeaway.

What a great place. Food was excellent and the staff very attentive. We had the lunchtime ‘set’ menu that had a good range to pick from ….the Korean chicken was superb - well in fact it was all superb.

Beautiful food, all freshly prepared and cooked from scratch. Staff were very friendly and welcoming too. Enjoyed our visit so much we will definitely be going back.

Absolutely amazing food, great service and fantastic atmosphere. Highly recommend going, whether it's date night,or a family meal they cater to all. Will definitely be going back. Food portions are big and the food is full of flavour.

Absolutely fantastic. Food is delicious, full of flavour and hot. Staff are polite and friendly. Will definitely be back.

Had a lovely lunch with my Mum, the food was tasty, came quickly and great value for money. The staff were friendly and helpful as always. Many thanks and see you again soon!

Visited for the very first time and wasn’t disappointed. Lovely staff and service, service was extremely quick might be nice to have a bit of a gap between courses, also food was very tasty but slightly over salted dishes as not used to personally so much salt, still tasty though restaurant is very dimly lit so hard to read menus lol a bit more lighting needed around tables will definitely return but just a few areas need addressing

Fantastic Hot Tin lunch! We have eaten here many times over several years and I can honestly say I have never had food or service that was anything less than excellent. Prices are reasonable, portions are good and ambience and service very good. Its no...

Expensive but amazing food you won't get better in the dump that is Warrington

Love this place but slightly disappointed tonight for first time ever. Sweet and sour was " ordinary" which is most unusual. Great staff, service and atmosphere.

This restaurant is truly amazing The staff are so lovely and nothing is too much trouble. The food was so delicious We had the set menu superb value Would definitely recommend

Went for an afternoon meal food was excellent, good service and had half price starters and mains 👍 Cant ask more than that.

Lovely restaurant, food was great and service was very good too. Quite expensive though so save your pennies. Also be careful when ordering one of their 'banquet' options. We initially read that as you got everything included but in reality you could only order 1...

Went last night for a birthday meal. They sang happy birthday and lit candles on a cake for us, which was lovely of them to do. Staff very attentive and lovely with us, including the children with their annoying orders. Nothing was too much trouble. 50% off mains was good as we ordered plenty of food. We took leftovers home in takeaway containers with no fuss. Only issue we had was no lift, so was a bit difficult for less able bodied in the group to do the stairs, but they triumphed and we had a lovely meal. They also made the kids feel special with Nutella spring rolls which went down a treat and made others who didn't come out very jealous.

The Christmas lunch banquet was lovely! Great portion sizes for the prices, we almost couldn’t finish because we were so full :) Delish food for such a great price. Great service and atmosphere

Lovely meal and great hospitality.

I really enjoyed dim sum menus. 3 for 2 is amazing deal! All staffs are great.

Fantastic food and service, this was our third visit this year and did not disappoint. Highly recommend.

Amazing food! Amazing staff! The food was hot and fresh and the atmosphere was fab! Will definitely return.

Delicious food, fantastic quality. Friendly staff and nice vibes.

We visited this restaurant a few weeks ago, the service was slow which we expected during a busy weekend however, the service from staff was not what we expected. I ordered the honey chicken and I could have just made it at home, it was just dry chicken nuggets in a sticky sauce. For the food was of poor quality and yet such a high price. On another table we seen what appeared the manager spill a tray of expresso martinis over a woman.

Been in few times but never impressed.. Nice atmosphere and good service(considering not busy lunch). Tried the lunch set menu aswell and it was defitenely a thumb down

Like mr laus but not today left us for half a hour for dessert and then came up and asked us to leave as people were coming in 2mins if they had given us our dessert on time we would of left early if it is this bad this week what is going to be next week and we have been this time of the year before and its been great

Lovely family meal. The food was brilliant and there is such a wide range on the menu. The atmosphere was great and the restaurant looks incredible. Didn't realise that 12.5% gratuity was automatically added which took total to nearly £500. We didn't get a birthday cake/song despite asking for one when four others did.

Excellent food at very reasonable prices

Never been here before but went with a friend who recommended it. Superb Hoi Tin lunch, lots of choice. We paid extra for the duck which was delicious. Hot and sour soup delicious and we had chicken satay which were succulent and sauce very authentic....

Enjoyed a very nice meal well my favourite dish fillet steak Cantonese with ribs and the best prawn toast I’ve had in a long time would definitely recommend this restaurant

We were really looking forward to going here. However we were very disappointed as we couldnt gain access because we are disabled

We visited for my partners birthday. The first impressions of the restaurant are fantastic, the presentation, ambiance and staff really impressed. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable offering advice and recommendations on both the food and drinks menu. The dim sum were beautiful and the...

Unfortunately we couldn't get in because we are disabled

Lovely meal and staff were lovely too 🥰

Really lovely meal pre theatre! Friendly service Really good food too We will definitely be eating there soon Maybe try the din M sum menu

My calamari was quite tough, the cauliflower crisp was bland with no seasoning, although my wife's Korean chicken starter was very nice. The mains were of a reasonable size, but even on the early diner deal, dinner for 4 came to over £170, which it simply wasn't worth. The screaming child didn't help the lack luster atmosphere

It's challenging to find good restaurants in Warrington, but Mr. Laus never disappoints. Each time we've been here the food and service has been great.

Fantastic place great food and staff are so pleasant nothing is to much trouble for them will definitely be returning soon.

Bill came to £145 for two people. This is the third time we have been to Mr Lous to try their “famous” lobster deal where you get a bottle of champagne with any 2pb Lobster which is only on Fridays. Each time we have been they have had NO lobster! Food we did order was extremely overpriced, dry and unpleasant. Duck spring rolls (£7) hardly had any meat in them, just stuffed with a load of Veg. Honey Chicken (£18) was basically 8 chicken nuggets on a plate with NO Sauce! We had to share the sauce from another main. Prawn toast (£14) was awful! It is basically one piece of toast stuffed with more than the usual amount of Prawns. It was dry and taste was overwhelming with the amount of prawns stuffed in there. King Dum Po Chicken (£24) + calamari (£4) =£28 total for a main without any rice or chips! You could tell they reduced the portion size just to add the Calamari. Portion was mainly veg with little meat…. AGAIN! Tried to order drinks with the porter who brings food to the table which he said he’ll get a staff member to come over. 15 minutes later no one came. I had my meal with no drink. We was in the booth right next to the bar so I had to go up and order it myself. Cocktail took another 10 minutes to come. Drinks were overpriced due to the lack of complimentary champagne with the lobster (which we called and was assured they would have on!). Service was extremely slow, waited 20 minutes to get a waiters attention to pay the bill. You could spot way off who the owner was as she was stomping around the restaurant piercing looks at the staff. The concept of this restaurant is amazing, But the delivery on service, food, affordability and customer service have been compromised by its former reputation which once held this establishment in such a high pedestal. Now, it seems it’s got more expensive without any improvement on its service. It is the kind of restaurant you try once just for experience, but retention of customers is defiantly an issue this restaurant faces. Restaurant itself was designed with a gorgeous interior with good lighting. But, I wouldn’t be deceived.

The most delicious Chinese meal we have ever eaten! We got a takeaway and it was still amazing top quality restaurant food. Four of us ate and we said it was one of the best meals we have ever had. The options for vegetarians are...

Staff polite and very attentive and good value for money, food delicious in high quality. I love the Dim Sum especially 5 Dim Sum for just 20 pounds. Best Chinese restaurant in Warrington

We visited Mr Laus on Sunday and took advantage of the dim sum offer of any 5 plates for £20. This is such a great deal with so many to choose from the selection is hard but every plate was fantastic, highly recommend the prawn...

Fantastic food and atmosphere. I'll be back

Went for a family day out at Gullivers world which is close by; was looking for some decent food for afterwards and saw that this was quite an expensive Chinese eatery, in my mind that made me think it was going to be fantastic food. Unfortunately I was disappointed it was fast food at fancy restaurant prices £100 bill for salt and pepper chicken £7 for salt and pepper chips and I’ve had more flavourful ones from a chippy, everything was under-seasoned and the chicken was bouncy over cooked and dry. Was really quite upset with it. The only good thing was the firecracker beef but even that was really simple and not worth the price tag.. service was great thought couldn’t knock that.

The food here is absolutely superb, and the service matches it was a lovely evening. I have wanted to try here for so long, and it certainly did not disappoint. Everything 5*

I’m disappointed in an order placed last week. Last Friday, as a special treat to celebrate my brothers GCSE results,we decided to try this Chinese after hearing about it. Excited to try it, we placed an order for around £100 worth of food. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed and let down. The portions were very small for the prices, we paid £7 for salt and pepper chips to receive a stingy handful of chips. We paid £14 for salt and pepper ribs and were shocked that the ribs were small with hardly any meat on them and weren’t even battered. The fried rice was awful, it appeared as though it was boiled rice mixed in with clumps of scrambled egg, absolutely no flavour. The salt and pepper chicken was a small portion again, half the box consisted of useless garnishes and fried onions. The squid was the only nice component of the meal as it was tender. The sweet and sour pork, char Sui buns and everything else was average. Definitely not worth the £100 bill, especially after my little brother had used his savings to pay for it and was let down. Definitely much better Chineses in the Warrington area, such as the Choy Hing.

Food, ambience, staff and service delivery was great 💕

Stopped as passing for a quick bite to eat . Nice food and drinks . Service was also good . Limited parking near the restaurant

We had a wonderfull dinner for my daughter B'Day last night .. all the food we oddered really good and not long to wait . My daughter had her B'day Candle and free cake ... We are really appreated👍. Thankkk you 🙏

Absolutely epic dining experience. Such a massive choice of dishes, everything cooked to perfection and friendly staff. An excellent works night out with customers.

Very expensive for the quality of the food,too salty very disappointed

Definitely not as good as it used to be. Will start the search for a new Chinese!

Lovely Chinese food. Have a great time. The only slight disappointment is how close other diners have to sit by you. Table very cramped together. Great staff though and great food 👌

Very over priced service great food mediocre disappointing

Been wanting to visit for a while so stopped in for an impromptu dinner when in the area. Lots of great deals for dim sum and early dinner menu deals. Service was brilliant and food was incredible.

Always a treat to go to Mr Lau's. Lunchtime buffet is gorgeous & tremendous value.

Knowledgeable staff, nice food, but expensive for what it is
