Bazu Chinese Restaurant

Was a busy Saturday night when we came here… the lobster with egg noodles was very nice, the lobster may have been a little old as the meat was a little tough and chewy. The pepper steak had excellent flavour and seasoning, but the steak itself had a lot of bones then what I’d expect. But still a great meal and would recommend. Parking around the area is a bit of a pain however, found street parking 2 blocks away.

I went to Star House a few times years ago. This time I went there with 2 friends for yum cha again. I love the steamed pork rib and the chicken feet, the rice pastry with Chinese donut was also very yummy. The sauces came in with the dishes were nice too. The staff were friendly and very helpful, nice and fast service. Big dining area which can fit lots of people. We ordered 10 dishes which was more than enough for us, and a glass of pineapple juice. We didn't have much left overs and almost finished everything. It costed us more than $100. So I would say the price is a bit high. But food was really yummy. Recommend this Chinese restaurant for yum cha.

Spotted in the heart of Adelaide city and very close to the China town. The service was quick and the staff were fairly professional. Some of the items were delicious and nicely done but for some of the items like the duck I have had much better in other places. The duck was not as flavoursome and tasty as it should be with all the aromatic Chinese spices also it was over cooked for sure. Spring rolls were nice and fresh and the dipping sauces were nice as well.

Me and a close friend of mine ordered a huge spread during lunch time (Yum Cha) and every dish was delicious and varied. The highlights were easily the salt and pepper squid, beef pastry, pork buns and shallot cakes. Not the first time I've been, and definitely won't be the last. However, don't expect fantastic service.

Star House is very mid tier. Been there in various stages of my life and don't remember it being like this. The Star House of 2015 was superior. Went there for a birthday dinner this year with a party of 8 and the staff were pretty rude and inattentive. The dishes were okay but the price is definitely not justified. Portion size is also quite limited and some dishes were just plain bland. More like a tasting platter. 6/10. Went there another time for Yum Cha and the experience was alright- 7/10 Overall experience was okay - 6.5/10.
