Tingha Palace - Parramatta

Had yumcha here, and we found that the food tasted clean, not overly seasoned, and did not use too much MSG. Staff are friendly and attentive.

Third time coming, delicious food here! Haven't tried the yum cha here though yet. I remember trying fried rice here last time and it was really bland so I don't recommend that, but everything else is super good!

The nostalgia of yum char in Hong Kong is brought to life here. The push cart style and friendly waiters serving dim sum is just the tip of the iceberg. The dim sums are freshly made and steaming hot and palatable. Kudos to the service staff that make you feel like emperors and empresses

It's my go to yum cha place! The food is always great, big servings and really tasty! We always over order because there is just too much delicious food to eat haha! It's always great to sit and chat while eating good food. I would certainly recommend: the har gow (shrimp/ prawn dumplings), siu mai (pork dumplings), fung zao (chicken feet), lo bak go (turnip cake) cheung fun (rice noodle rolls with prawn or beef), gam cin tou (steamed black bean beef tripe), ham sui gok (fried glutinous rice dumplings with pork) and black bean and garlic steamed spare ribs. And for dessert: lao sa bao (molten egg custard buns) and mango pancakes It's less busy on the weekdays, but if you decide to go on the weekends, expect at least 20-30mins+ wait. They open at 11am on the weekends so either arrive 10:45am to line up or earlier to beat the lunch rush, or arrive around 2pm after the lunch rush. They close at 3pm for yum cha and reopen at 5:30pm for dinner. Would 100% recommend eating at!

It's quite yummy yum cha but as other reviews mentioned, the service is very typical of authentic Chinese places (you will understand only if you're asian). You feel like nobody has time for you and they basically mostly ignore you if you ask for anything extra like sauce or particular dishes because they're all running around. They will show you the carts and you just point what you want, don't go if you don't know what is yumcha because they don't have time to answer questions or show you menu. I only found the waiters brought me what I wanted when I asked the lady who looked like the manager. That being said, it was worth asking for the egg tart which came out fresh cooked warm and delicious. Price was $70 for two people, we ordered a few dishes but not too much. So middle to high end of the price tag.
