Fu Man Lou Dumpling Bar

Just on 12.00 noon I was the only person in the restaurant. Seated promptly given a menu, no real interaction offered between customer and waiter. Dumpling houses offer tea as you read the menu, none, not even asking if water or a drink from the...More

We paid 50$ for lunch with no alcohol. Food was bland and oily. This place was the talk of the town when it opened, now the menus have changed and written in poor English. I don't know if staff and owners have changed, but I think a relaunch with a makeover is in order.

We were so excited to visit FML after reviews from friends and word of mouth. We were not disappointed with the food, it was delicious and not overly priced for Australian Chinese. The staff and service however..... not up to scratch. We were served our drinks and 3 share meals quickly thinking if it wasn't enough we would order more and DEFINATELY having dessert as I have a horrible custard bun addiction. Unfortunately after eating and finishing drinks we were left sitting at the dirty table for over 20 minutes while 3 staff members either stood and talked and looked at phones at the bar 2/3 metres away or walked past, eventually picked up 1/2 our plates and never came back. Waited another 10 to see if they came back.... nope. We paid and left still craving dessert and very unimpressed with the staff. It wasn't even a busy night 2/3 takeaways and 4 other tables of 2/4 guests.

Tasty AF. Noodles yasss + chilli boiled dumplings ftw. If you're not a fan I think you might have no taste buds.

This place was a complete disappointment. I have been here about a year ago and it was an amazing dumpling bar. But now it has gone down market. It's dumpling menu has diminished. And despite advertising gluten-free options on its webpage it states clearly in its instore menu that there are NO GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS available.besides steamed rice, there was nothing! Also there are no wheel chair access to the toilets that are down stairs. Never again!
