Nice quality food with awesome service! Peking duck is a must! Great ambience! The Beggar Chicken comes with some pre-activity which is great for birthday celebrations!

Had lunch there and the service is good! The foods are good, except that there's hair at one of the dim sum. But will definitely return again.

For the price paid the food was disappointing. Service staff not attentive enough or they are understaffed. But at least they are open to feedback.

Awesome food during the Dim Sum Brunch buffet with amazing ambiance. Most importantly had personal touch from the main chef which made the experience more valuable.

Quality of food was average and the service needs improvement. Knowledge of the menu by the wait staff was poor and they were not accommodating to increase the number of portions for 4 people when the steamer only has 3.

Overall the food are delicious but the service is slow and the music in dancing hall downstairs is really disturbance of the dinner. We can't even hear from each other while chatting during the dinner.

Food was excellent, the beggar's chicken is a Must! Service staff were very attentive. Restaurant renovation was beautiful, it's a big place with private rooms. Perfect place to entertain guests.

Ordered famous beggar chicken. Nice presentation but portion is small. Peking duck is also much smaller compared to other restaurants. Service is not fast and people serving tea just spoke to us in Chinese. Quite high priced for regular dishes.

The food had a fusion slant to it, and was pretty good. Good presentation and plating, and also relatively quiet for weekend lunches. I liked the high ceilings in the restaurant which gave it a less claustrophobic feel compared to most Chinese cuisine restaurants.

The overall atmosphere is excellent, fusing traditional Chinese architecture style with modern decor. The dimsum are super tasty and well plated. My family loved the Beggar Chicken dish where my parents were invited to break the mould that covers the chicken. Overall, it is on the pricey side but it's worth the money.

Had a good time. The truffle sauce with the Peking duck was unique and very tasty. Portions a little small though. Liked the live music as well.

Had the Tasting menu and added a half Signature duck and Beggar Chicken, both of which are really good. Loved the texture of Nepalese Rock rice which comes with the chicken. Ended to be too much food as we had no room for the Spring Onion noodles. Overall presentation was lovely and quality of food was good. Only the appetizer with Belly pork and Kurobuta char Siew was disappointing , have better elsewhere. Pricey but a great place to entertain as its not crowded and has a luxe feel.

First time there and trying out Chinese fusion food. Ordered the indulgence set meal, portion was right, food was great. Atmosphere was really nice, not crowded at all. Only bad thing is there were two entrance so I had to walk a round to the other entrance as they were having event and it was drizzling.

Way overrated and overpriced. Ordered 2 porridge and both had an extremely fishy taste, even the century egg pork porridge! Feedback to waitress and all she did was apologise and offer to replace me with another porridge which I declined of course! Thereafter nothing else was done, i asked to feedback to manager and she said she already told manager about it but up to the moment we left the restaurant, not once did the manager come over to offer any apology. I would expect a restaurant that charges such premium pricing to be offering service level that matches too but it's really a total disappointment. Will not return for sure.

Service was excellent. Food was pretty good except for the plain vegetables which was way too salty. The Shark Cartilage soup was the best. The Peking duck is a little over-rated and not to par with other Cantonese restaurants. The beggar's chicken was innovative and good fun but of cos the taste is nothing to shout about... Also a bit on the pricey side. Chinese tea cost $8++ per pax.

My third visit to the restaurantm The food is good and the ambience is perfect. However, there was birthday party going on downstairs and the constant singing of happy birthday and ruckus from the party coming from the bar downstairs was deafening. It negated all the good food and ambience downstairs. I think management must do something about the potential noise from downstairs from killing the ambience and mood upstairs or it is going to lose a lot of its customers.There are many other restaurants around serving good and better food but without the noise disturbance. Am going to give this place a miss from now on unless they do something about the noise pollution from downstairs.

Ambience was great. Food was prepared in great detail. Dishes were flavourful. Dedicated service and gave good recommendations. The dim sums are valued for money. Will patronise again.

Service is delightful. Lovely presentation and pleasant ambience. Great at the frills. Unfortunately, if food were the consideration, they need to pull up their socks.

The decorations are cool and ambience was fantastic. Food quality was very good... the roast pork was extremely delicious. However I still prefer the traditional peking duck to their signature VLV Peking duck.

Romantic and posh restaurant at 2nd level. Food served are delicious but smaller portion. Beggar chicken without doubt is one of the best main dish. Will try their dimsum lunch buffet one day.

Nice ambience and great food. Good for gatherings. Beggar chicken is a must try, is really good. Had roast pork as an appetizer, it was good! As for dessert, compared to the recommended oh nee, I prefer the all time fav mango pomelo.

After dining there a few times, I must say THIS particular experience just BREAK it. I will NOT step into VLV again... (unless absolutely necessary). The Manager on duty, the bold head Chinese man with spectacle, just ruined our experience and our mood. Been there for lunch 3 times and the brunch twice... it was pretty quiet that Sunday when we were there, no sign of overbooking ... but the manager was giving my bro and me a terrible reaction when we requested for more alcohol. He was rude,undermining and not appreciative of our business . Basically, discriminating ! And def not polite ... as though we 'owe' him and begging for another pour of our free glow alcohol. Untactful and undeserving Always believe the waiters and managers make or break a restaurant reputation. VLV as a nice restaurant with decent food, it is unfortunate that they employ such untactful idiots as their manager who score so low in Customer's satisfaction

Food was really good as always, love the different takes on traditional food, but service has always been a little lacking - not that they were no good, just not enough attention or a tad slow, maybe from being understaffed

The environment is too dim. Since the dishes are so exclusive, I think the served personnel who is attending to the table should explain more about the dishes. So far only one waiter attend to my table explain well, the rest was not. Hope VLV can improve this aspect. If possible can explain in both English and Mandarin would be good.

awesome! But would be good for Quandoo to list out if there's items that can be pre-ordered. For example the "beggar chicken" can't be ordered there, but has to be pre-ordered. I didn't know until I tried ordering.

Staff was attentive, food was good. However, my pre-orders - Beggar Chicken on Quandoo wasn't noted and was sold out during my visit and that affected the overall experience slightly.

Great ambience & service. Interesting menu, managed to get 'beggar's chicken' without advance order! Delicious - must try! Hence, highlight to guest during reservation. Overall experience - sumptuous and pleasant! Keep it up!
