    I love the fact that you get your own pot of soup so you don’t mix with your parties and you can also choose your own soup base. It’s very affordable for an all you can eat hot pot. Great customer service, the owner was so friendly and accommodating. The only negative thing I found here was that they don’t have a great selection of toppings and I noticed some items weren’t as fresh anymore (mostly vegetables as well). Nonetheless it’s still a great spot to pig out with your friends.

    The restaurant is conveniently located across the street from the Station Street exit of Birmingham New Street station. I believe it’s name has now changed to Yue Xin. The restaurant has ample space and a warm interior decor. They have a dim sum menu, full meal/platter menu and liquor menu. The staff were efficient and helpful. I ordered the jasmine tea, king prawn rice roll, steamed king prawn dumpling, fried Vietnamese rolls and chicken and mushroom rice. The highlights for me were the steamed prawn dumpling and Vietnamese rolls. The jasmine tea was also really light and refreshing so I asked for a second pot which I wasn’t charged for. I enjoyed the chicken and mushroom rice which for £4.80 was a very hearty portion. The rice roll and the sauce it was in was nice just a little too thick for me. If I come again with someone I’ll definitely check out their bigger meal menu. Their dim sum was also really great value for money.

    This restaurant is now call Yue Xin after a change of ownership. They serve wonderful and authentic dim sum during lunchtime, with generous portions and good value to boot. I went for dinner last night, and had their Chinese Soup of the Day (made with special ingredients imported from China), and a Belly Pork & Yam Casserole with Boiled Rice. Everything was delicious, and the service was both attentive and warm too. I highly recommend that you give this place a try. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed!

    I rarely leave feedback but for a place like this it's worth it. My partner and I stopped by for a meal after my competition and I must say I was very pleased. Large portions, the food was fresh and very tasty, the service was friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant was also enthusiastic. Importantly I left full and had no stomach revolutions afterwards. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

    Found this place via a spontaneous Google search and my word…it’s probably the best Chinese that I’ve personally eaten at. My girlfriend and I ordered a variety of Dim Sum and a plate of Beef Ho Fun each and the Dim Sum was the best Dim Sum we have eaten, whilst the Ho Fun was full of flavour and the texture was gorgeous. I would highly recommend a visit to this place!

    Had some lovely dim sum and noodles on this restaurant. It’s a short walk from the main Chinese quarter, but worth a visit. Staff was helpful and ultimately the dim sum was very tasty. Recommended and will come back again.

    Dim sun! Dim sun! And one more time Dim sun! What a great place with a lovely lady behind the counter serving us. Atmosphere was lovely and food even better. My passion for bao was fulfilled definitely. Can't decide which one was better as all choices were just "home made" spot on starting from soup through every single dumpling and lastly fish in ginger sauce. Definitely will revisit as location is great. See you next time Yummy 👌☺️

    Pros: the meal was delicious and piping hot. The vegetable spring rolls were fresh and scrumptious. The restaurant was clean and well kept. We were well looked after. Cons: there is definitely a language barrier when booking over the phone and when ordering in house. This is did not put a downer on our meal as it was very tasty.

    Food as a whole was ok. Not always fresh though. The char siu and siu yuk were reheated either in the microwave or something as it was as tough as leather. Raised this with the staff they simply looked at it and walked off - £10... Lesson learnt. Won't be back again.

    So so service, dishes bit dirty. I wiped the dirt off. Price ok, not too expensive, food ok. Cha siu bao not good, probably wont order next time.

    Ordered from this restaurant couple times before and noticed that they tend put too many chillies in their dishes and this time I have specifically asked and left a note asking for no chillies to be put in my dish. To my surprise not only they have put chillies in it, but it was very excessive completely ruining the dish. The food there in general is not too bad, but failing to commit to customers requests is a big problem especially for a restaurant.

    A very nice restaurant but it is NOT called Han Dynasty, so trying to find it was confusing. Staff very helpful and friendly. Ensure you get the full menu as we were only give a noodle menu on arrival, and only found out there was a full menu when we were ready to leave. Noodle dishes are huge so don't over order.

    Not bad - better than most dim sum places in Birmingham. Some things were over steamed so made it a bit sloppy, but taste was good. Didn’t like one of the dishes and it was a regular dish we always order for dim sum at other places. They were however quite happy to exchange for another dish. Service overall was good.

    I feel I should preface this by saying that I’m a reasonable person and having lived in China, am fairly familiar with Asian food. Butttt, we were really disappointed by our recent visit to this restaurant. The English menu was pretty confusing, and not accurately labelled. We are vegetarian and ordered dishes that didn’t mention meat, but turned up and were in fact meaty. It’s a shame as it looked delicious, but I can’t stand seafood, so couldn’t stomach it. The staff however were lovely, so we just ate what we could, paid, and left. Probably won’t be going back though!

    Truly excellent dim sum here. Some of the best I've had in the city and definitely some of the largest. The staff were wonderful and the really good sign? We were the only English in here - exactly how i like it!

    Really very good roast meats and excellent Char Siu Bao. Unfortunately had the wrong football strip on the wall.

    Not as grandiose as it's name suggests. It's more akin to a bistro or more appropriately "cha chang teng". Limited dim sum menu, that said, what is available is good and no hints of excessive MSG. Service isn't the best nor is it the fastest. But some might argue it's full so expect more time for dishes to come out. But One dim sum dish that we waited for, for over 90min never made it and they still wanted to charge us. Hmmm After much ado, it was taken off the bill. Not the best first experience. There's no immediate street parking outside so expect a parking ticket and if you think you can sneakily drop off n go, make sure the camera isn't pointing your direction. On a plus point the train station side entrance is right across the road so prob ok if you want to take a trainee and don't want to walk all the way down to Chinatown. Im not keen on the place but my friends think it's good. Perhaps it was just an off day? Maybe I'll give them a second chance... ...or not

    Found this restaurant on the edge of Chinatown, it's now known as Yue Xin. Went especially for dim sum for lunch however they have quite a variety of other Chinese foods. Plenty of Chinese clientele here on a Sunday afternoon. Enjoyed different dim sum classics like siu mai, Cheung fan, spare ribs and chicken feet. The waitresses were very friendly and helpful which is quite unusual as I don't usually expect good service in many Chinese restaurants. Tasty food with decent portion sizes, will be returning to try more items off the menus.Food cost around £45 for 3 people including tea.
