Happy Gathering in Cardiff

Simply the best Chines restaurant. Service, food and value for money. The dim sum menu is excellent.

Been going to the happy gathering for over 25 years and always enjoyed but we went there for a special treat for mothers day and the service was to say the least appalling. We ordered drinks they never come after an hour 2 of our 5 drinks turned up. The food was slow and the last thing brought to the table was the rice which by then we had enough. And to top it all when we left we noticed they only had 1 star hygiene rating on the door so we definitely be looking somewhere else to go for our family to have a Chinese every week. We won't be returning bad bad show.

Love HG food is delicious and very good value for money

Really busy on Welsh football Derby day, but they found a spot for me. The oldest and the best for authentic dim sum. A little expensive but worth it for proper Cantonese food.

Had crispy duck to start, very crispy, cold, not very appetising. Followed by king po chicken, that went back for reheating as the egg fried rice didn’t arrive. No spice to the king po, very bland. I had beef with noodles in black bean , it was greasy and a bit grisly. Very disappointed as it was recommended by a few of my friends. Other people had duck starter and we noticed it came out fresh and was shredded in front of them, I think we had one that was sat on the side. We won’t be rushing back anytime soon

Excellent food, good vibe, very large restaurant. Has set menu C for three with enough left over for a 4th very hungry person.very enjoyable experience. I'll be back !

My partner and I ordered a set menu A which was £19.50 each. Definitely worth it. Three starters (prawn crackers, ribs, spring rolls), 4 mains (chicken, pork, beef and bean sprouts), but no dessert. Was great food and great customer service. Polite and friendly. Would recommend

Best Dim Sum I’ve had in the UK for a long time.Be sure to ask for the Chinese menu and if you can’t read Chinese use Google translate. The Chinese dim sum menu is far more extensive than the English version.Back to the dim sum, it’s great and tasty. Their cheung fun and char siu bao are really good, and they also do deep fried crispy taro dumplings, which a lot of restaurants these days don’t do.Service is spot on and efficient. They take temperature checks and details before you are seated and all tables are socially distanced. You definitely feel safe eating there.

Very traditional dimsum experience. Char siu buns and Lo bak go were absolutely delicious. Reasonable price as well!

Food was excellent, very quick once ordered. The staff were very attentive and showed great patience for our very hungry 5 yr old who was determined to not sit in his chair!The only downside was that we had to wait 20 minutes for our table that we had booked in advance. I can only assume that Covid restrictions meant that they were doing their level best to find balance between keeping everyone safe and running a very busy restaurant. A few of the dishes we ordered had been forgotten which is the reason I've only given 4 stars but for the rest of my experience, I could live with as the food and staff here are worth it.
