Reviews of Hees Garden Seafood Restaurant

V.

Delicious and amazing. They were nice enough to accept a grab one voucher that expired in the lockdown. Super awesome service. Even changed the dish to accommodate my vegetarian son!

W.

Got the Grabone Peking duck for 2 for $46. Amazing deal, there was ALOT of duck for 2 people. Good tasting very meaty duck. The beansprout dish has a lot of Wok Hay and not too much MSG. The corn soup was very basic, so we chose not to drink it. Overall, pretty good meal. Toilet is a bit old and dirty and probably should get that refurbished.

J.

One of THE go to places for Yum Cha in Auckland! Authentic, prices are generally reasonable (ranging from $20 to $30 per pax) and quality of food has always been consistent. Lost of star would be due to overall service(wait times for tables/food) and frustration to find parking with seating being quite cramped. To Try's if you havent already: Beef tripe, chicken feet, fried yam

H.

consistently high quality food, reasonable price and good environment. Sometimes too busy to look after all the customers, and car park too small.

T.

Great tasting food here, theres something for everyone. This time round they we're much faster in service and everything was on point. Just have to try the prawn dumplings.

S.

Just had peking duck and two entrees. Food was delicious. J

H.

Food was so so, looked liked they have just boiled the seafood and noodles and served with some salt. I was expecting something spicy.

J.

Great food. Busy restaurant. Range of clientel. Only one complaint and that is that there was too much onion used. The satay beef and sweet and sour pork were packed with onion. The duck with wraps and sauce was amazing. If you like roast duck this is a must try.

G.

Overall pretty good. Wontons were average. Dumplings were perfect.

L.

A large Mt Eden Chinese restaurant with its own small carpark in back. Service was very slow, it took a long time from seating us to coming back to take our order. We were offered tea but had to ask for water and to get someone to take our drinks order. Food was okay, heated well but a bit bland. Somewhat expensive for what we ordered compared to similar places.

T.

Food taste super good! Can taste the freshness from every dishes! The workers there are very friendly too, they will provide recommendations when you ask. It's the first and might be one of the best Chinese restaurant in Auckland. Not too busy during lunch hour :)

P.

One of the Best Asian restaurants in Auckland!! 😁 😋

G.

Good peking duck. Was quiet when we went so service was quick. Left full good value.

J.

Decent food. Decent prices. Service a bit slow but it was a full house. Worth a go and a repeat visit.

M.

Went here for yumcha and it was delicious! Particularly loved the siu mai they were so juicy and tender

F.

Good food. Had Yum Cha.

E.

Delicious foods and very clean facilities, I enjoyed eating the Chinese foods they offer there. I think the staff were very friendly and clever, they can speak fluently in Chinese, Cantonese, and English. So don’t worry if you’re not too fluent, we all relate to that. The money is affordable, nothing too expensive. I hope everyone enjoys their time at Hee’s Garden Restaurant.

F.

Excellent value Yum Cha. Beautiful decor and traditional Chinese experience. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to taste the real thing

R.

Unfortunately we arrived for yum char at the same time as multiple tour groups who ate all the available 'steam'. We left still hungry. Usually this restaurant is excellent, we were just unlucky. They were extremely apologetic and offered a discount for what we did have. We will still try again.

N.

Yum yum yum cha 😋 Clean, reasonable and kids friendly. Only if there is parental toilet that is perfect. Too tasty to stop taking photos 😂

M.

Were there for Dim Sum on Boxing Day. Just after we sat down 2 fully loaded carts cruised by. We grabbed pork dumplings, dan tart, sticky rice, beef balls. Ordered siu my which came soon after. All good. Good service. Will be back next time we're in Auckland. Easy to park.

A.

Our go-to for yum cha. Cheap, yummy, nice setting. Their food used to taste rather bland, recently however it tasted great. It's only fair that I change the rating from 4 to 5.

R.

New owners have taken a bit of time to stamp their mark and the results are starting to come through. We dined there last night (11th November) and the food was great. With its 30+year history this place has great potential to be a wonderful local eatery..

A.

Nice to come back to Heed Garden Restaurant after 25 years later, great the owner running this famous restaurant for over 35 years, delivered so many delicious food.

C.

Nice fresh dumplings n quality taste. Staff are friendly n no time constraints especially that's what yum chai is about 😊. Reasonable price. Have tried other yum chai restaurants n disappointed with either time limited with booking allowed, extra charges for condiments, mass production with no quality taste or over price.

E.

When this place is good, it's the best food in Auckland but it is often inconsistent. The service is getting better but often you have to get up and get things yourself (soy sauce or chilli) as it will either not come or takes too long. I think it has a lot of tourist groups to keep it afloat.

C.

Great service and value for money meals. Like our many visits to the restaurant over the years sampling various meals, the Hees Peking duck course never disappoints. Definitely worth a visit.

N.

It usually open at around 11 o'clock am for the yum cha. The price is affortable for everyone, roughly 20~30 pp. Ohh, it has tasty food and fantasy tea. I prefer the Pu'er tea which could help us relieve greasy feeling.

D.

Went for a yum cha. Lovely food however you have to order some dishes like sliced pork, beans cooked in black bean sauce and a few more. Overall a 5 star restaurant. Reasonably priced.

A.

Oooooh. So goooooooood. Recommended highly by me to go. The decoration is realistic and pretty. The food is amazing. Very peaceful. I just love it

C.

Purchased a GrabOne voucher for Peking Duck. There was ample food - a lot of duck for 2 people, but service was slow and not the best. They were probably understaffed, so if you're hungry be prepared to wait.

O.

Great food, great service

F.

Very accommodating service and excellent menu presentation! Great experience!

M.

A typical Canton style service of Yum Char. The staff are friendly and the place is bustling so at times waiting is required. Food is good and not salty and full of msg.

A.

Friendly environment, good service, lots of options, very fair price. Definitely recommend to others.

L.

Went here with the hubby and inlaws last week. I had pork dim sums for an entree and they were absolutely delicious. For a main I had King Prawns in wine sauce with steamed rice- didn't blow my mind but I think it was too safe a choice. My husband had sweet and sour fish and the fish was a bit too boney but the sauce was exquisite. His parents particularly enjoyed the prawn cocktail starter. All the portion sizes are enormous, I definitely advise you to share,particularly if you are going to have entrees too. I'd go again for those dim sums.

F.

Delicious food at Here Garden, had the Peking duck pancakes going on the turntable. Well priced and BYO!

T.

Had a wonderful meal there and are going back tomorrow again with friends. As a restaurant owner I'm a fussy diner. They make the best sweet and sour pork and spring rolls ever. Can't wait to try some more dishes.

M.

Great value, and nice tasting Pecking Duck together with other classic dishes

E.

Peking duck here is reallyy good! We’ve been here 3 times for peking duck and we’re from Christchurch!

J.

Traditional Chinese “Yum Cha” restaurant with dim sun serving. Dinner menu is good amongst the top best and they can also do traditional Chinese birthday buns order.

P.

Got seated in an area the trolleys couldn't get to, so ended up missing out on a lot of choices. Staff seemed a little 'too busy' for us. Food ok.

F.

Have eaten here several times over the years. On all visits so far, dishes have been prepared to a high standard.

m.

The food was great also the restaurant is very clean . The staff very friendly the rest rooms very clean great menue good range of wines and beers we visit this resultant at least twice a month im Kiwi my wife is Beijing Chinese she also likes this tesurant

K.

Super nice visit. Excellent service, good food. A very good stop. Have eaten here several times and will return next time in NZ.

L.

Excellent dim sum place. You would want to read about the yum cha culture if you're unfamiliar, in order to have a much better experience while here.

P.

Always good service and the food is good too. Been coming here for years. Atmosphere nothing to write home about but it's usually busy, so must be working!

D.

Great family-run business. A really asset to the community.

J.

Had nice wontons and combination fried rice. Chicken foo yong was okay. Live crayfish in the tank a bit freaky to look at

C.

Food is amazing! However service is terrible especially if you're European. They either don't understand what you want or just ignore you

S.

Ample parking behind restaurant and street parking as well. Waitstaff was pleasant. Pricing is reasonable for the quanity and quality of food.

D.

Pretty good for Yum Cha. Service is average but most yum chas are. Food is good but feel like it has a lot of MSG in it.

S.

Great service and good value with grab one voucher

E.

Service is good and also enjoyed the yum cha

M.

Food was really yamm. We had peking duck(Beijing style). Great quality with good amount of food.

L.

Yummy food and great value for money especially in a big group. Come early if you want yumcha because it finishes soon.

V.

We got a surprisingly good deal for special menu. It's better to visit the place with that kind of offer

P.

For tour groups Very ordinary Chinese fare, the mapo tofu especially, which is devoid of pork. Service is efficient but not overly friendly.

j.

Great food and plenty of it. Genuine Chinese food.

N.

Bought a voucher for Peeking duck two course! Was yum! Good pancakes and crispy duck! Parking out back and down side street

L.

Peking duck was a delight, great service, all in all a nice experience

J.

Great food, great service, definitely be back.

Beautiful Peking duck, lots of left overs for us to take home for lunch the next day :)

Amazing food. Wide variety of dishes that kept coming. And it's reasonably priced.

Good yum Cha , but I feel like it is lacking, a few years ago this place was amazing and I feel like that standard has slipped

Not worth talkbing about, most of the dishes are lack luster. However, their shu mai was very good.

With the trend of the trend and the supply of local ingredients, the Chinese dishes made will retain traditional practices and innovations. .
