Yauatcha City opened in May 2015 in Broadgate Circle, just outside Liverpool Street Station. This is Yauatcha’s second UK location following the success of its award winning restaurant in Soho.

Yauatcha City is an all-day dim sum teahouse, where friends and family gather to catch up over a wide selection of dim sum, wok dishes, tea and cocktails. To complement the cuisine, the drinks menu comprises nearly 40 types of tea, as well as cocktails inspired by Chinese ingredients and a broad wine and Champagne list.

Yauatcha’s first standalone patisserie, Yauatcha Patisserie, is located just below the restaurant, where Chinese heritage and modern European cooking techniques have inspired the pastry team to create a range of unique macarons, petits gateaux and chocolates.

The staff is helpful and friendly. Food is tasty but the portion is ridiculously small. They also really need to upgrade their ventilation - cooking smells all over the restaurant which you don’t expect in this type of place. The decorations are dated, It feels like a fast food chain rather than a premium range restaurant. I much prefer the one in Soho.

The staff were friendly but the waiting time was to long and the mains which we ordered were cold and had to be sent back three times and still were not at an acceptable temperature.

Not worth the price, I was not satisfied with the price and food. The beef was too salty and chicken. Desserts were too sweet. Cocktails were nice though.

It’s a busy business lunch place - we went there for a festive business catchup. We ordered a few dishes (veggies & dimsum) and a sea bass curry to share. They got the wrong sea bass on order(their mistake as our guy actually compared the curry to the aubergine dish we ordered). They took it back and our curry did not come until we finished the rice, veggies and pretty much everything. It’s fine to get it wrong but no apology, no semblance of being affected by their dampening our Christmas lunch was frankly quite rude. And in the bill they had put the original sea bass in and taken it out calling it a festive discount 🤯 Anyways after explaining everything we got a half apology! Sigh. I used to like this restaurant
