majestic cuisine 鸿图

love yum cha and have been having mad cravings for ages. found this spot and thought "yup!"
small and intimate, great dishes and options, friendly staff with more english speakers than any i've been too and accommodating to large groups because this was a mothers day service.
considering how much i know i can eat and how much i did eat, very good value.
the rating is more of a 4.8 only because one of the servers spilt her "tray juice" on my leg when she walked past but other than that i will definitely be back.

one of the better yum cha places in wellington. though the prices of the dishes are not the cheapest but relatively expensive you are paying for quality.

i would not say all yum cha dishes are top notch but there are certainly some good tasty dishes.  and one in particular that i enjoy is the durian mochi - yes i understand durian is not for the faint hearted and not to everyones tastebuds but with the lack or limited cream inside makes it one of the better durian mochi that i have had.

please visit my website for an indepth review of what we ate here.

just what you want from a chinese restaurant - authentic chinese food, affordable prices and friendly service. went for dinner then again for yum cha. for dinner they provide a large bowl of soup to warm the soul while you wait for your dishes. yum cha was great overall - the siumai were filling, the pineapple buns were sweet but tasty. the prawn dumplings were disappointing however - wrappers not as delicate as you'd expect and little flavour in the prawns.

we came here for dinner last night with the family being my mum in law's 90th birthday.
being a monday night the restaurant was extremely quiet. we felt we were the only people eating there all night. there was also a table of 5 people there but they were the owners friends and family.
a total of seven courses was ordered being the usual fare which was plates of roast duck, steamed chicken, steamed blue cod fish in ginger and soya sauce, long life noodles, choysum vegetable, a tofu and pork dish, and a bowl of spicy prawns.
all the food offered was ranged from quite nice to not-so-nice. nothing really stood out in my opinion. hence l scored it 3 out of 5 for food.
the service we received wasn't especially good. there were two waiters there all night one of them being the owner l believe. what i hated to see was a fully messy table that no one bothered to clear all our empty dishes and bowls of bones and dirty tissues, etc. until where we were leaving. other competitive chinese restaurants in the area are generally much better in this respect. hence i would scored it 2 out of 5 for service and comfort.
i hope our experience would be better on our next visit here.

nice meal and friendly service. definitely will be back. strongly recommend!

always enjoy coming to majestics. great friendly service and reasonable prices. food is fresh and delicious every time! this is our go to place when we have friends visit. love the custard buns from here!

my sister and i really enjoyed the food. ordered the sweet and sour chicken, crispy skin chicken, mango pudding and deep fried ice-cream. the restaurant is nice and cozy and the food was delicious, i especially enjoyed how the sweet and sour chicken was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

customer service was a++, thank you very much to the ladies who took our order and served the food, service with a smile and kindness!

first off it was busy to begin with so it took about 30 min for an available table, which we were prepared for. the food was ok could definitely be better since half of the food was lakewarm. some food like the deep fried squid and custard tart was over done, fried for too long so when it gets cold it becomes hard to chow on. some food like the was too spicy (chicken feet) too salty (dim sum) or no favours. the only time good might be that the smiling people with trays.

went here for dinner with a group of friends and it was good. the menu variety was decent and prices were reasonable. the staffs were very helpful when it came to selecting menus.

came for yum cha here today. it was packed and we had to wait 20 mins for a table which is normal for a weekend but the food was just underwhelming to say the least. a lot of it was lukewarm, clearly wasn’t fresh and there was very little flavour. it was disappointing and i don’t think i will be back unfortunately.

hemos comido bien, aunque nada excepcional, el salón es como muchos de los restaurantes chinos...medio medio. el servicio bueno. los dimsum discretos, los he comido mejores.

we ordered a chicken fried rice, one chicken chow mein (hot), one chicken chow mein (no spice), one shredded chicken in schezuan sauce and a sweet corn chicken soup. that’s a lot of chicken!! chicken was very juicy and all the dishes were very well prepared. the server recommended we cut down on our order as we were over ordering and rightly so! awesome food, sumptuous portions, great service, good ambience and value for money!

went to have yum cha with a friend on sunday and we were very pleased with this place. food were authentic easily beating the quality of many good auckland yum cha places. the price was moderate and service was really good.

we visited majestic for yum cha on chinese new year. very easy booking and reservation system, prompt seating, and friendly staff. food was very fresh and tasty, coming out at regular intervals. a good variety of sweet and savoury options too. one of the best places for yum cha in the area.

one of my favs for lunch i have taken many a friend here and converted them to the absolutely delightful gastro tradition of yumcha 🙌🏻
my favourites here are the squid, steamed pork buns, black bean pork ribs and the roast pork.
i know most yuncha places serve all of the above but majestic are continuous with their service and the food keeps on coming!
jasmine tea is a must have and also the bok choy with sweet sauce on it helps aid the digestion if all the friend goodness just consumed 😂
