It was a new concept of food for us and we did enjoy the quirky and yuppie feel of the atmosphere. Very happening and great for a Friday or Saturday night!

We had the pork belly and it was the best pork belly I have had, the dumplings and Bai buns were sensational. Service was excellent and food was bought out quick and fresh. Highly recommend a visit

The Dainty Dowager was fantastic. The restaurant was very busy however the wait staff were so friendly and cheerful even though they were run off their feet. Nothing was a problem for them. The food was sensational, we came for a girls night and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.

Great food and service. Dwight is a most awesome host and makes us feel very welcome. The duck and the daily dumplings alone are worth a visit.

Very attentive staff and excellent selection of Asian fusion foods. Loved the cocktails and the ancient Chinese theme revolving around the dowager empress Cixi. Will return for sure!

Can't fault the food at all - delicious & fresh authentic flavours. Unfortunately, even though the service was good, my friends & I did not appreciate being kicked off our table after 1.5 hours. We still had food to finish & were made to rush & sit at a very crowded bar. We were told that we needed to make the table available for another booking, however this was not mentioned at the time of making a reservation. Quite disappointed for this reason & don't think we will return.

Great food! However the service was somewhat lacking. Too many people not enough staff. We had to go to the bar to order drinks, and hunt down our own water and someone to order some dessert

the food was excellent. Every dish had its own unique subtle blend of flavours. The only complaint is that all the hard surfaces made the venue noisy and not conducive to conversation. However, I would still visit it again. The venue should seriously consider some acoustic paneling to assist the ambiance

We had the 'feast' which was very tasty and the food came out quickly. More than enough for our group of five. We didn't want any dessert and they allowed us to switch out items which was nice. Highly recommended

Poor quality and presentation of food. A child could put that meal together with a few bottles of Asian flavoured sauces from Coles. Staff reaching across to take plates away without even asking to be excused a very poor show of serving manners and obvious disregard for patrons. Over priced, would never recommend or go there again.

Food was rather greasy and uninspiring . Way too noisy if you want a conversation . Bad choice on my part. I'm sure some people love it, lots of buzz.

Fantastic service from our waitress, she addressed our dietary requirements promptly and when they were out of the wine we ordered, recommended another that was only available by the bottle, but she gave us one glass. The food was great too.
