The only people who will enjoy their food here, are only those who don't know what dim sum is. Prices are extortion, portions are small. All jazzed up with "luxury" ingredients with poor execution. £40 for tiny platters, £15 per dim sum and £22 pounds for a few strands of noodles. The funniest thing are pots of tea that has not tea leaves. Perfect excuse to charge you full price for another pot when traditional you should be able to ask for an unlimited refill. A total cost of £250 that included a service charge of 13.5% Avoid the disappointment and head to China Town. You'll get much better food for half the price.

One of the most spectacular dining experiences I’ve had. The food was amazing, the drinks were even better, and the service across the entire really made the night very special. One member of the team who stood out to me was the manager, Pavel; he added a very personal touch to our evening and thoroughly explained each dish, made excellent recommendations, all while being very charming and professional.

The cost is not worth the value. The pre-set menu for 2 people brings too much food that one couple cannot possibly finish, and that goes to waste, instead of providing a wider range of dishes in smaller portions. Or simply something cheaper for less food. The cocktails are unreasonably priced and the ambiance, though trying to be “quiet”, is loud, with added music that is also too loud. Service was great, some food items really interesting and well presented, but way too expensive in the end. Apple Maps shows it as a 2 out of 4 dollar signs - it should be 4 out of 4 dollar signs for price.

I was recently at Yauatcha for dinner with my colleagues. Amongst the different dishes I tried, loved the drunken chicken wanton, prawn cheung fun, and the dumplings. Didn’t like the kwetio noodles. While they are well known for their desserts, I couldn’t try any. Loved the hospitality, and how professional the staff who served us were.

We decided to have a quick lunch here after having been to their Soho branch before and being impressed. I have previously dined here also, but that was back in 2017. It was excellent then, so with the fact that the restaurant is still operating, I assumed the food was still on that level. Unfortunately, I was wrong. We ordered dim sum, cod, noodles and rice with sparkling water and kombucha as drinks. The first point to note is that the server mistakenly brought q bottle of still water to the table. That’s no big deal but as they weren’t busy at that point, it was a mistake nevertheless. However, It was a >30 minute wait for the dim sum and a 45 minute wait for the rest of the food, which my husband (who is East Asian) found bland, tasteless and of very average quality. I happened to agree with him. The main dish cod was tiny, had barely any flavour and was cut into five small pieces. It was not a premium cut and frankly could have been any white fish, if you know what I’m saying there. Both the rice and the noodles were very bland. Supposedly the rice was meant to have egg in it but I didn’t see any and the Singapore noodles had barely anything of substance in them apart from overcooked prawns and scraggy little pieces of octopus. When we came to pay the bill there was a ‘discretionary’ charity donation already added to the bill. Ok, fine but it’s not cool to take someone’s money without notice that you’re going to do so. I like to know a bit about a charity before I CHOOSE to donate. It’s only £1, but this isn’t a good way to get donations. Ratings: the dim sum are good but not outstanding: 3/5 The rest of the food: 2/5 Service: 3/5 they are polite but make mistakes and are repeatedly at your table refilling your glass. It almost feels like you’re having your meal with them. I did also reluctantly have to ask how long our main food was going to take, despite having been only the second party to go in as we went in as soon as the restaurant opened at 12pm. Ambience: 2/5: The wait staff are overly attentive to the point that they don’t leave you in peace for a minute. This spoilt the experience. They didn’t work like this in Soho. I’d never return here as it’s expensive just to eat very average food which is not enjoyable at all for the money paid. I don’t mind a long wait for food, if it is worth it. Put bluntly, it isn’t here. The dim sum are ok so I’d advise anyone who has to go there for a business lunch to only have those.

Terrible experience. Will not be going back again. Ordered a drink which was completely bitter (Lychee cocktail) and was told that it’s not bitter. Didn’t quite understand why I was being challenged. Waiter was rude, we all ordered one rice each and only brought out 2 and said the 4 of us had to share. 5 mins later they brought out 2 more rice. Completely bad service. Will not be going again

She was kind and professional, and nothing was ever too much for her.

This is the best dim sum place in London in terms of food quality and service. Price is probably a bit high but worth every penny according to my taste buds. The dim sums were super fresh, and presented beautifully, creatively and generously. The staff really took time to introduce and explain the food properly so you understand what you are eating which you don't see often even in London. I also tried their signature moon cakes before which are to die for. Highly recommended!

Totally underwhelming food and service. Front of house staff felt quite confused, and most of the time appeared to congregate chatting rather than tending to diners. ¼ crispy duck was generous… however, wasn’t impressed with the remains of a bao bun in the bamboo basket lid the pancakes were served in. Egg fried rice was very dry, borderline stale… distinctly not Asian, and not at all impressed with the pride/arrogance I received when I challenged. Simply impossible to eat with chop sticks, unless you want to go grain by grain. Also surprised to see Hakkasan come up on my bill… should I expect the same standard if we dine there?

I have used yauacha in Soho several times and this was my first time visiting the city. The elegant Chinese food warmed my insides. After all, Asian food is satisfying. It's an elegant size and the price is reasonable, but I think it's reasonable considering the luxurious location. The kids loved the rice flour with the cutlets in it.

Disappointing and definitely not worth the money. Staff were awkward and not very friendly. Service was an ok pace however. I tried 3 different seafood dim sum and they all tasted very similar, pretty bland, nothing special and not better than dim sum I could get somewhere else for half the price. The only slightly interesting one was the seafood truffle one. The milk and cookies petit gateau was very good. But you can just buy the pastries separately. Don't recommend, not worth it for either the atmosphere or the food, and definitely not at that price.

As ever the food was really good, the variety is always excellent and always good quality. Unfortunately however, whilst the food was good the overall ambience and experience was not. The server was friendly but as the restaurant got busier service soon slowed, food was slow to come out and service less attentive. we also saw that an event was on so it was quite loud and it wasn’t a nice relaxed atmosphere as I had previously experienced on other visits. We also had a minor issue where our server had got a bit of our order wrong so we were left waiting for an item we expected, given the speed of service slowed this meant we were waiting quite a bit a while.

Yauatcha City: A Dim Sum Experience That Falls Short Yauatcha City, owned by the Hakkasan Group, has established itself as a popular dim sum destination in London. However, on my recent visit, the experience left me feeling a little underwhelmed. Getting to Yauatcha City is easy via public transport. Numerous buses stop nearby, and the venue is a short walk from Liverpool Street Station. Be aware that there is no car parking available. Look for the distinctive blue door and take the elevator to the restaurant floor. They also boast a patisserie downstairs for those with a sweet tooth. The first thing you might notice upon entering is the limited table space. While the restaurant itself isn't tiny, the tables are quite close together, making it tricky to navigate with a large group and multiple dishes. The decor is also rather plain – not bad, but certainly not opulent. Thankfully, the service was a bright spot. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. However, the food itself fell short of expectations, especially considering the price point. There are definitely better Asian restaurants offering similar fare for a more reasonable cost in the area. Let's delve into the specifics: Wagyu Beef Puff: This is one of Yauatcha's signature dishes, but the Wagyu filling was rather skimpy. The pastry itself was decent, with a nice crunch, but the star of the show was noticeably absent. Spicy Soft Shell Crab: This dish lived up to its reputation as one of the menu's highlights. The crab was perfectly cooked with a satisfying spice level. Pan-fried Lamb with Red Pepper and Onion: This felt like a less exciting version of the lamb dishes offered at other restaurants. It wasn't bad, but it lacked any special spark. Salt and Pepper Lobster Tail, Mooli Cake: Disappointingly, the garlic flakes seemed to be the dominant flavor here, overshadowing the lobster itself. The batter lacked complexity, and the lobster meat portion wasn't particularly generous. Hand Pulled Noodles: These were a bright spot! The in-house made noodles were springy and delicious, especially when dressed with the provided chili oil and soy sauce. Overall, Yauatcha City is an average Asian restaurant. While the service is commendable and there are some decent dishes, the high price point paired with the underwhelming food leaves it feeling forgettable. There are better options out there for a truly memorable dim sum experience.

Last minute dinner with friends and really wanted to try Yauatcha as had long been recommended. It was a hot sunny evening and the place was busy. It has quite a lot of background noise which I liked as you could chat and not feel you were being listened to. More of a "buzz" I would say. The food is very good. Crispy duck is not the best I've had (Min Jiang is the go to for that) but is good (shredded rather than my preferred sliced!). We all enjoyed the food and the environment. The staff were friendly and we didn't feel rushed even though it was a busy evening.

We had starters of Prawn toast , duck crispy rolls and chicken and prawn wantons , all were delicious with a particularly favourable nudge to the fabulous wantons. Mains were prawn and scallop noodles and another chicken dish which were both delicious .

Kitchen was too busy with orders and we ended up waiting over an hour for food. Did not deliver all food together - chaotic experience. Manager tried to push the blame to us by saying we should have known this was an Asian experience and that food arrives as an when it's ready. We overheard another manager tell the waiters to not take anymore orders. Food eventually came 2 hours after we entered the building. We got up and left.

Would prefer to have own dessert with a smaller spoon . This wasn’t mentioned on the menu .staff were friendly and attentive .

Noisy - not buzzy, but noisy. Chaotic service with layers of servers being told they’re doing things wrong by line managers. We chose off the a la carte one pork based dish for me then a range of things my vegetarian guest and I could share; all the dim sum was a glooopy mess of pastes and unexciting flavours with deeply unappealing levels of food colour in the pastry. Hand pulled noodles and long beans were good. £120 with one bottle of fizzy water and two coffees.

Dim sum is a bit too soft, but other dishes are good and the service is very considerate.

Dishes are expensive but very tasty. Everything was top quality and beautifully presented. Service was barely tolerable because the guy serving us couldn’t care less whether he does a good job, was rushing so much we couldn’t even finish ordering and he was already gone, same thing numerous times. Then you’re slapped with a 13,5% service charge which is annoying given the service was poor. Ladies at reception were lovely and welcoming, ambiance was nice but a bit loud even at 2:30pm on a Wednesday.

This is my favourite restaurant in London and I love their food & service! I ordered a takeaway today as a birthday treat and spend £48 on a meal for one. I got home to the smallest portions, around half what you would get in the restaurant and it’s safe to say I’m really sad and disappointed because it’s not worth the money. I won’t be ordering a takeaway from Yauatcha again.

First time visiting and can’t say it’s worth another visit. Got the Spirit set menu and can’t say all of the dishes were 10/10, the duck breast dish had a strange taste and texture. However, the venison puff and the cocktails were lovely and probably the highlights of the evening.

I had a lovely experience, but it took 15mins before anyone took my order and after my order was processed i received my Singapore Noodles in good timing then i had to wait 15-20mins for my sweet and sour pork. Which made my noodles cold as i like to eat them together.

Awful, service rushed from the start, have been Yauatcha 20+ times? The shine is no longer. The food is still great. Do better guys. Shame.

Outstanding food quality, the venison puffs have blown me away at least four times over the course of years on repeated visits. The food has remained consistent and I have never been disappointed by any of my visits here.

We only went for dessert after having dinner elsewhere and we walked in as they had availability (usually need bookings though). Desserts are more on the interesting and fancy side so I would not recommend if you are looking for a black coffee and slice of cake. I didn't really enjoy the desserts though but definitely an experience.

Food is great but the environment is just okay. Their Cantonese dim sum is a new fusion type, a mixture of high quality ingredients and modern cooking techniques. If you expect classical Cantonese dish and fine dining experience, this might not be the right place. The servants are all nice; however, I found the tables too close to each other. The environment is also too noisy. In simple words, you get the food you pay for but the dining experience is not much different to Din Tai Fung.

Disappointing. I quite like Hakkasan and I was expecting similar quality. This was run of the mill cheap takeaway level.

The white lobby manager has a racist experience and will avoid lightning in the future. Both the scallops, stuffed shaomai and rice rolls were chewy. I didn’t complain. I just gave feedback when the lobby manager went through the process to ask if he was satisfied with the dishes. After all, the feedback was for their own good. We made it clear that no compensation was required. FYI. The white lobby manager rolled his eyes and asked, "Should we call an ambulance? It's getting worse for a reason. It's lightning protection!"

Great restaurant with amazing reputation and fantastic customer service Emailed them about gluten and sesame allergy and they replied almost immediately- I can’t eat there but always appreciate when a restaurant takes the time to explain to customers that require such information

Not enough servers. They move so fast that you feel rushed asking questions. There prep area is in middle of restaurant and they are so loud. Fried rice was over cooked Chicken fried noodles was ok Chicken dumplings and sweet & sour chicken were the beat

Me and my partner absolutely loved it. The food was super delicious, the staff very friendly and polite. The atmosphere in the restaurant was perfect. The chicken in the mixed hors d’oeuvres was nice and juicy even it was batter and deep fried, same with the quarter duck very flavourful and juicy. Highly recommended if you’re near , even if you’re not worth the drive.
