Missed my roots and home whenever I go here to eat. Loved all their dishes especially the radish cake, siomai, chicken feet, and their fried noodle dish. Super generous amount of meat and seafood with the right amount of seasoning. And the two ladies who served us were very accommodating and friendly. Will definitely go back for more.

Been here today. The staff are friendly! 5/5
However, the food was all mediocre. Good value of money.
Ambience is good for lunch and quick bites.
.
We had deep fried pork rolls, the rolls were all veggies and 1% to .5% pork. Not good. Cant see pork inside really
The squid rings doesnt have flavor at all. All flour.

other than that, i love this place really.
loved the Beef mushroom and duck. My favorite is Spicy Salt Shrimp. The pork shomai is wonderful. Would like a quail egg on top of shomai.
The combination and chicken fried fish rice are okay.

the owner will try to remmber you and your orders. she allows us to call too before coming. overall, loved this than 88 devonport.

It is a good Chinese restaurant if you want value for your money. The dishes we ordered were considerably cheap and came out in large servings. However, the management lacked some professionalism. Only one staff member would serve, cashier etc. Whilst the others stood around not offering help, maybe due to not being confident in speaking English.

Had a great Saturday night here very friendly owners and awesome food with a large group of us 16 plus people. We ordered and within half hour entree crab soup came out nice and hot and very tasty, then came all our other orders sweet and sour pork, roast duck, steamed chicken, fried rice, plain rice, stir fried beef sizzling on the plate, green vege soup, sichuan pork.
This restaurant is great value for what your receive tasty on time hot food with pleasant atmosphere.

In Tauranga on business and affter looking around town decided to try Eastern Ocean. Monday night so place was quite empty. I did not try the Yum Cha and ordered off the reasonably limited menu . I ordered the Sichuan Chicken ( keen on spicy food) and a squid dish on a sizzling hotplate.
Service was good and due to it being a Monday night the food came quite quickly. The Sichaun chicken dish was absolutely delicious and well spiced and seasoned and I would recommend this dish strongly. The squid dish was well cooked and presented with tender squid and vegetables.There could have been a little more sauce to lift the flavour of the squid dish. Also ordererd rice which was quite a modest serving. Good value for money and I look forward to my next visit to this restaurant.

This is in our favourite restaurant group! Yum cha is delicious! Heaps of choices, fresh, fast and delicious:-). The service is
Interesting, sometimes great and sometimes a little stale, I like to blame it on a language barrier. At the end of the day the food is delicious and fun! This place is well worth a visit! Yum yum yum

Had yumcha today after reading good reviews about this place. Was not disappointed! Yumcha here was really good, best I've tasted so far and authentic Chinese flavours. Fast service and good value for money, sadly the staff was unfriendly and made the situation uncomfortable but overall was a good experience.

I have been to this restaurant quite a few times. My excellent rating for it is for the Yum Cha at lunchtime. It is fabulous. Fresh, delicious, fast and great value. Like all Yum Cha services it is at a pretty furious pace but they do not seem to force you out of your table as soon as you slow down. A terrific meal and highly recommended. I have also eaten from the menu in the evening and the items on the authentic part of the menu are reasonably good - but not outstanding.

This is easily the best Chinese restaurant in Tauranga!!!!!!!(I only do A La Carte and yum cha at dinner time, no buffet for me…)
I don’t know what the people who gave bad review are talking about…because I have never had bad customer service or food from there and yes I have been to other yum cha restaurant before;) oh and in addition to that I have taken my Chinese friends there and they liked it so it may say some thing…

Definitely far more flavour, cheaper, friendly service and great options. Preferred to the competitor (yes, I have tried the other one a number of times!).
Hungry 2 persons with take home is about $60 odd.

We had a great authentic meal. All of our dishes were very good. We were very, very pleased to find Peeking Duck on the menu which tasted great and was well presented. We live in Whakatane and will be back to Tauranga just to eat here again.

Our favourite Chinese restaurant in Tauranga. Friendly staff, nice ethnic atmosphere. Would be nice to have some more variety of lunch menu, but the dinning menu is very extensive and very exciting.

Very authentic Chinese cuisine. The mapo tofu was perfectly seasoned and Peking duck was fresh, juicy, and crispy. Staff was kind and have great suggestions on which side dishes to add on as well. Highly recommend.

Best duck in the bay. Their food is delicious and the staff are so friendly. I recommend bringing a big group as the food is great for sharing amongst eachother but it was also perfect going there with just me, my husband and brother. Definitely try their BBQ pork cake/pastries and their BBQ pork buns.

Especially, there is enough amount food for 3 with 2 and good taste. I ordered the food as the staff suggestd with expectation. That’s great. You can trust the staff. And the ambience is good and chrysanthemum tea.

Yummy food at decent prices. Queues aren't usually long and ordering in store and waiting takes about 10 mins for 2 types of dumplings and 2 mains. You can pre order online using tuckerfox.

This has been my favorite Chinese food place for the last 13 years. Nothing fancy, all simple, and the hostess has the most amazing sense of humor. The food is absolutely delicious and priced super well. It is all well prepared, well presented and super tasty. Definitely a place of choice for us!

Stopped by for a late dinner when it wasn't busy and the aunty who served us was very hospitable and gave great suggestions. If you come here, make sure to order their turnip cake from the Yum Cha/all day lunch menu, so delightful and tasty.
