We had a very disappointing experience during our recent visit. It was a busy weekend dinner, and although we had made reservations, the overall experience was far from satisfactory. The main issue was the poor attitude of the waitress (wearing a coat, one of the seniors), who, in my opinion, exhibited behavior far worse than the typical level of service one might expect.

When we placed our order, she was visibly uninterested and reluctant to offer any recommendations. Fine, we continued with our order. However, the real issue arose when it came time to serve the dishes. Our steamed fish seemed to have been forgotten by the kitchen—it took over an hour to arrive. When it finally did, it was undercooked. We politely asked for it to be re-steamed, but the waitress responded with a clearly frustrated demeanor and took the dish away without any apology.

Additionally, she failed to take our order correctly, resulting in one of the dishes missing from the list. When we ordered, she wasn’t paying attention, which led to the mistake.

We’ve been regular customers of Wu Jia, but with the service we received from this waitress and the restaurant’s inability to manage peak hours effectively, we no longer feel inclined to return. Please be advised to avoid having this particular lady serve you—her attitude was extremely...

This has a very standard Chinese restaurant look and elegant. Floors look new and clean. Tables are comfortably large and well arranged. Staffs are efficient and helpful.

As far as the food is concerned, to be honest, I expected better. I wasn't wowed except for 2 dishes. I absolutely loved the grilled iberico ribs. Tender, juicy, sweet and well seasoned. Superb. I also found the 8 treasure chicken well cooked. Tender soft chicken and move aromatic gravy, even though it has a over abundance of herbs. Sometimes less is more.

The salted egg prawn was above average and doesn't suffer from excessive batter. The claypot tofu light but flavourful. The sweet sour pork and fried veggie was just average.

The egg meanwhile was a little disappointing. A bit thick and inadequate seasoning. The crunchy edge was also missing. I think they should do better.

In short, the restaurant serves above average food but from the local reputation, I...
