Took 3 bored waitresses to hold a conflab to decide there wasn't enough room for us. 20 odd spare tables at 5.20 pm.

Absolutely amazing we can't wait to come back ! Busy for a Wednesday which shows how good it is.Went back last night .The hot and soup is the best I've ever tasted. The prawn starters are amazing and the mains are tooooooo die for. Crispy chilli beef cooked to perfection

Service was lovely, especially from the waitresses, however the manager was rude and mean.

How anyone can give this wonderful restaurant less than five stars is beyond me. Is it expensive? Yes!!!! Is it worth it? Big yes!!!! Exquisite food, beautifully presented- you couldn't ask for more from a Michelin starred restaurant. I bet Lisa from Northcote loves it here too.

All good but small portions.

Think food a tad overpriced for a Chinese.

Just an average Chinese at exquisite prices! My wife and I took my father for his birthday meal. To say we left underwhelmed would be about right. The service is excellent. The restaurant itself is trying to give vibes of a high end restaurant but sadly the food does not back this up! Whilst perfectly edible it is, just average Chinese food. We all agreed we would have been better off ordering from our local take away. For the prices you pay in this restaurant I would want the food to blow my mind. It did not. Avoid the crispy belly pork at all costs! It is not crispy is any way shape or form. We sent the dish back which was taken without question and removed from the bill but the feedback from the chef was “this is how I serve it”. If that is the case, change the menu description. The restaurant was extremely busy and also extremely noisy. It was very difficult to enjoy a conversation. Would I return? Sadly not.

Date night for us was exceptional. The cocktails are great. We sat at the bar and waited for our table. The atmosphere was great. Once seated at the table we chose the banquet menu which was amazing and it gives you a little taster of the most popular dishes. The wine was lovely and we were not rushed whilst requesting a break between courses.

Quality food, great service. The banquet is a bargain all things considered. Drinks aren't overly expensive either. Well worth a
Myself and my boyfriend visited for the first time today. We were seated straight away and were the first to arrive. Despite it getting busier towards the end the service was still spot on. Special shout out to Ellie who was great. Was slightly apprehensive after reading the comments regarding small portions. However we ordered off the banquet menu and found it very good value for money. We were absolutely stuffed and had to ask for a box for our left overs. Our favourites were the sea bass, scallops and sweet and sour chicken. Will definitely be back :)

I last visited the Yu restaurant 4 yrs. ago with my late partner, we both loved the place. I have tried to book it since she died but when I said it was for 1 person it was all of a sudden booked up that night, I found this disgusting and shameful and because of the links with my lovely, departed partner very sad. I booked it and said there were 2 of us coming no problem to Yu's restauarant why should you be victimised because you've lost someone or are solo for whatever reason. The service was 5* with excellent young staff, well trained and polite and attentive. I had the same starter and main that myself and my partner had 4yrs ago to relive a happier time for me, but it was not as good and at £44 por value.

Food was small for the price, chicken was rubbery, initial drinks took a while to come out. after 30 mins of leaving the restaurant we are hungry and had to order a takeaway.
