Best place to get taro ball iced dessert. Soft chewy taro balls with red bean paste, jelly, various condiments in shaved ice and condense milk. We ordered it and paid online by the QR code but forgot to apply the discount code. A bit gutted. All self-service.

Very nice food. It’s been there since I came to NZ in 2003. Still one of my favourite dinning place.

(5 months prior 4 stars, 3 stars now edit below) The food is really good and we enjoy the bubble tea. One of my favorites is the Beef Noodle Soup. We also enjoy the fried rice. We didn't like the karaoke room very much. The touch screen doesn't respond nicely and it's difficult to find songs. We are also unable to adjust the key for certain songs.Edit: I always order the beef noodles soup. I haven't been back for a while and was disappointed to discover that not only have they increased the price (which is understandable) BUT they have the nerve to provide beef pieces that are now more than half the size they used to be... My whole family noticed the stark difference. I have added a photo.

Great food!But mainly love the fact that is open late! It’s one of the few places in the city that you can eat after 9pm

Food is on the oily side but it's good comfort food for a cheat day. Their fried dishes like the sesame chicken (C11) and deep fried squid (A14) are super yum. From memory their crystal chicken is also super good. Good service and nice atmosphere.

The food was nothing to write home about and neither was the atmosphere. There were loud sounds coming from the kitchen which sounded like the same noises fast food equipment makes. Overall, it felt like we were paying double what the food and dining experience was worth.

The whole table had great dishes. The Beef stew was outstanding ,full of flavour and a big portion, perfect for a cold winter day. As a nice bonus an array of teas were available including bubble tea.
