Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
One Dining Teahouse & Restaurant offers a "wonderful dining experience" with "incredible dining experience" and "amazing service" from staff like Rick. The ambience is "peaceful and perfect" for an afternoon tea. While the food presentation impresses, some find the taste lacking and prices high. Ideal for a tranquil high tea.

    The yum Cha was nice overall but we didn’t get any choice - it was a set menu. It seemed a bit expensive but overall we enjoyed it and liked the food.

    First of with staying the overall presentation of the food is stunning but the taste and quality of the food is very poor like one of the worse I’ve had and no it not because I’m picky I’m a big foodie and I know taste and quality and this wasn’t it but the presentation was absolutely stunning the braised pork did not taste cooked enough slight bleeding in the pork very minimal and we both ended up very sick after on our anniversary I’m speaking constantly running to the bathroom and sore stomach kind of ruined our anniversary . The garden was stunning but the lizards were intimidating and everywhere we didn’t finish the garden due to fear . The service was great and was greeted by pleasant worker the price did not match the quality or the taste fo the food at all was very bland . I actually wish I was refunded for the way we ended up very ill after

The staff were on point from start to finish, providing friendly, attentive, and professional service that made us feel genuinely welcome. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. Highly recommend One Dining Teahouse and can't wait to visit again!

    What a shameless business. Staff was having this "I hate customers" attitude, food was low quality with fine dining price. Crazy! I don't know how it could achieve such a high score at Google review. I literally got scammed!!

    Perfect example of a tourist trap. My water glass was disgustingly dirty, the food seemed like they just deep fried some food from the freezer, the service was slow and there was basically no one in the restaurant. The city is surrounded by amazing Chinese food at reasonable prices, avoid this place at all costs and just get a cheap tickets to walk through the garden instead.

    If you’re looking for good Chinese food in Sydney please do yourself a favour and do not eat here. It’s surprisingly terrible given how close it is to Chinatown. Not only was the cooking terrible, but the steamer baskets were falling apart. The food was expensive and they charge an entrance fee unless you order the set menu at $108 a head. The ambience was nice so I’d recommend having a cup of tea there instead. I would definitely not eat there again.

    The high tea at the Chinese Friendship Garden is fantastic value. Enjoy a range of savoury and sweet treats with a glass of bubbly or a pot of tea in a beautiful tranquil setting.
