Nice meal at Lucky Yu, some dumpling skins were a bit tough and the seasonal greens were slightly undercooked. But interesting flavours, butternut sando was great and delicious bao.

Consistently delicious food, with the burger dim sum the only weak link. Friendly and efficient service. We loved it; have been before and will be back for sure.

Lovely food, flavours tip top, staffing welcoming, accommodating to our weird intolerances and allergies, delish bao and veggie options, gorgeous use of anise in the ribs dish, tasty gyoza, we brought our own wine and their rhubarb fizz was yummy. Very happy to have eaten there. Lucky us!
