Best of Cantonese fine dinning in Riyadh

Feb 2020 • business

Visited during lunch time and 2 weeks after the opening. Reception gentlemen great us with smile and quickly found our booking and lead us to our table, good first impression. The signature mushroom dim sum was very good and so the venison and wagyu puffs dim sum (a little too sweet for my taste but I’m sure local will loves it) Main course was good and value for money. Dessert was light and delicious. Simple and nice light airy decoration with outside seating. Our waiter has good knowledge of the menu and gave us good service. Happy to recommend to everyone.

Best Peking duck ever

Feb 2021 • couples

Went by on a Sunday night and were very well received. Great restaurant, spacious and cool. Sit “outside”(behind glass) and get a view of Olaya Street. We had crispy starters, Peking duck all arranged for us, and a pot full of traditional green tea. Very fullfilling evening!

Great anniversary dinner

Aug 2021 • couples

We visited Yauatcha in the recommendation of a friend, as we wanted to go out for dinner for our wedding anniversary. Yauatcha did not disappoint. The food was first class, the staff quietly attentive and we were made to feel extra special by a nice anniversary touch with dessert. I would definitely recommend to others; in fact I have done so with friends already

A “must-visit” when in Riyadh

Feb 2022 • family

An amazing experience with a carefully selected set menu and a range of delectable and super tasty dishes to explore. Every dish is carefully prepared and presented with absolute precision and class. They cater for all dietary requirements. I was surprised and intrigued by the carefully selected combinations and complimenting (sometimes contrasting) tastes that entertained my palate. An amazing experience and a definite place to visit when in Riyadh.

Excellent Asian restaurant in Riyadh

Apr 2021 • none

I was a guest in the Yauatcha in Riyadh in for the first time in April 2021. This restaurant is a true treasure in the Riyadh restaurant scene. The food is outstanding, very fresh and delicious. The service is fantastic the staff pays attention the detail and will accommodate and professionally advice you with your special wishes. The dining atmosphere is hip, modern and the relaxing instrumental background low volume music allows you to wind down and have a conversation. I would also like to point out the great service of Driouche Zakaria Maitre d' and of Anada Kumar Assistant General Manager. Both are real masters in there respective profession. Thank you all for a great evening and great food. I will return to you when I come back to Riyadh.

Fab food with friends

Jan 2024 • friends

We visited with a group of 18 plus people. We were happy to order our food in advance given the size of the group, but the rest said there was no need. Some chose to go a la carte whilst about half, including us, chose the set menus (min of 2 people required). We chose the Eagle menu and it was delicious! From talking to others all the food everyone had was great. Only slight negative was service on drinks was a bit slow and also some of us wanted beer with the meal but they only had 3 bottles available, so it was a bit limiting…. But would thoroughly recommend restaurant for groups, families or couple.

Impressive!

Dec 2020 • none

I have been to many Asian restaurants around the world, and I must say, this tops all of them. I think Hakkasan maybe be able to compete with it, however, if you are looking for good Asian food, especially Chinese, this is the place to be. They have a unique terrace and amazing team who make you feel at home. Only negative feedback is, restaurant is impossible to find.

Fabulous Chinese food in heart of Riyadh

May 2024 • business

We came here for dinner and had the string beans, san pei chicken and black bean beef - all were very good and authentic. Price was a little high which was expected for a quality place like this with exceptional service. Highly recommended for Chinese food!

Authentic Chinese in the heart of Riyadh

Dec 2023 • couples

Shahed waited on us at Yauatcha Chinese restaurant in Riyadh. He couldn’t have been more attentive. No detail left unturned. Excellent outdoor seats overlooking the city. From taking our order, to making menu recommendations, to anticipating our every need, Shahed never missed a beat. My husband had been searching for authentic Chinese cuisine and he finally found it. Delicious dishes with a unique twist from the chef. This place is definitely a 5-star gem in the heart of Riyadh!

Memorable

Apr 2021 • couples

I had my evening tea there, the ambience was soothing and calm. A suitable place for a quite and relaxing time. The food as it had was dessert, pecan coffee deliche. It was delicious. But what amazed me was the pu er prestige yunnan tea. It tasted subtle yet aromatic. The service was also excellent, we were attended promptly. The orders came by in a short time. We did not have to wait for a long period. It was a memorable visit.

Amazing aroma, food and staff

Sept 2021 • family

Stumbled upon the restaurant by accident but definitely glad we did. My family and I visited from Dammam and we would definitely recommend this to our friends. The service was superb and staff was lovely and accommodating. The food was very delicious and they were even kind enough to give my parents an on the house anniversary desert. Will definitely come back when we visit the city again!
