The YUMCHA here was so delicious ! I especially loved the pork belly dumplings and the white chocolate dumplings !! Such a delicious dessert and something which Ive never tried. The service here was also so spot on as well !! Cannot complain at all, will definitely be back again
Staff were fantastic, food was great, and atmosphere really nice – so definitely liked this place!
I came here for a graduation dinner (think about 20 people incl. staff members) and everyone had a great time. I was able to order in the day so that our meals would be ready by the time we arrived and ready to eat – saving us the hassle of a large group trying to decide everything then and there.
There was a range of dishes from all over the menu and every person finished theirs off easily. I particularly like the Chinese broccoli dish with oyster sauce. Simple yet tasty and a generous portion. There was a mix up however with three dishes (thinking there should have been two) so one person was waiting for an extremely long time without realising what had happened. But our waitress quickly rectified this and even gave her a free drink plus a larger serving.
The wait staff were very kind, quick and efficient with any requests that were made, and the restaurant was clean (however quite hot). Really enjoyed the experience here, and wouldn’t hesitate in returning.
3.5. Have been to the South Yarra branch and I admit I prefer the interior and atmosphere of their city branch better. We had friendly, attentive staff and the dishes came out quite fast. Wasn’t the biggest fan of the cocktails I tried (might have just been the ones I chose), but I did enjoy the dumplings a little more than I recall from my visit at the other branch. The prawn (har gow) dumplings, prawn and shallot dumplings and crispy wontons were my favourites. The ginger prawn dumplings, panfried pork and chive dumplings and roast duck dumplings were ok, whilst my XLB broke as it was stuck to the paper underneath… Mushroom dumpling wasn’t quite as good as I recall from the other branch, and our pulled pork dumplings were forgotten. Admittedly, we forgot we had ordered them as well so it wasn’t a problem. Really enjoyed dinner, although the prices are much higher than I would normally like to pay for dumplings.
The yum cha was the best Ive ever had. Honestly everything we ate was delicious. The satay chicken dumplings were amazing. If you want the best dumplings in town then this is the place for you. Cant wait to go back.
Oriental teahouse is by no means the best dumplings in Melbourne or the best value, but I still sometimes get a craving for the combination of sweet fruity iced tea and dumplings – and there are not many other places who do that. Their dumplings are nice, but never perfect, and expensive for the serving. However, this place still has charm to it, and I love that you can try a heap of teas at their tea tasting table while waiting for your food.

Came here on a Tuesday night for dinner and love how they have some sample teas at the front of the house. We ordered some dumplings, stir fry noodles, shredded steak and fried octopus. The seaweed and prawn dumplings were a stand out for me. Absolutely love them and the shredded steak was definitely a winner. Noodle was ok. Would go back to try other dishes
Food took a solid 30+ minutes to come out. Not only this but drinks werent served until then either. (Not sure how it could take so long to pour liquid into glasses). Food wasnt terrible and probably only the thing saving this place but it wasnt amazing enough that the wait was worth it
