A long-time favourite for dumplings and yum cha on Chapel Street, Oriental Teahouse is both traditional teahouse and innovative Chinese restaurant, where friends and family come together to sip on tea and dine on their favourite Chinese dishes. Our Chapel Street venue provides a unique teahouse experience that eases from daytime to nighttime, where patrons can enjoy delicious Chinese restaurant fare and the old-world charm of a Shanghai drinking den, all under the one roof. Sure, we offer all the classics, such as Shu Mai Dumplings and our BBQ Pork Buns, but we’re not afraid to serve juicy parcels stuffed with chilli wagyu beef or even white chocolate. Tucked away upstairs is Zhou Zhou Bar, our 1930s Shanghai-themed bar. With two private rooms available, our space is perfect for corporate functions, birthdays, and special occasions of any size.

    Fantastic space to dine and the service was great. Was impressed with wait staff who wore masks correctly v.s so many other service staff in other venues who do not. Our server was delightful and the food was terrific

    The food was average. The restaurant had sold out of the peking duck and pork belly by the time we ordered (8pm), which was disappointing. The food that we did order lacked flavour. The waitress was lovely.

    Friendly service, great food and nice atmosphere. We had the feast menu which had plenty of variety and lots of dumplings. Generous portion of the main. Only thing was it came out all very quickly and my dining companion had asked for it to slow down but they didn't. Not a big deal. I think it was great :)

    Ok, for the price, I have had better feeds at china town in a hawkers shop. The dumplings were soooo doughy, was like chewing rubber. Both the chicken and the pork was dry... Having lived in Asia for many years, I expected so.much more...The ambiance, the service was great, sadly the food was a poor addition.

    Excellent food, amazing flavours. Dumplings were delicious and the pork buns were the fluffiest I have ever had. Service was very friendly and quick. Great atmosphere.
