Fabulous restaurant for the traditional broth dipping meals …. Fresh veggies and meat was a stand out! Atmosphere was great too.

I am already paying for the meal, so why do you then want to charge me another 10% and then a further 1.5% to use my EFTPOS. The meal was average, but the extra charges are ridiculous. They put a damper on the whole evening.

First less than great experience, we have always loved Juicy Bao, but this time not as it was.
We found all the food to be oily and lacking seasoning.
The place was not busy at all, which we found to be unusual on a Sunday lunch and food service slower than expected.
We will now experiment with other restaurants before returning to Juicy Bao, pity as we loved it there before.

Dumplings good rest of the experience very mediocre. This could have been because we were there after the main lunch period.
