    The staff are friendly. However, the food is just okay, and there aren’t many vegetarian options to choose from.

    We have eaten at WANs several times and the quality of their meals is exceptional. They are always fresh and delicious. We sometimes take our wine or champagne if we want a specific bottle.

    Recommended by a friend we thought we would give it a go. Really nice atmosphere at night. I’d call it upmarket Cantonese Still had all the yum cha staples as an entree then moved on to their substantial dishes. Salt and pepper prawns as good as I’ve ever had.
