Amazing atmosphere. Good was good. Our waiter was very patient and accommodating despite we were the only table with kids. Food options was tasty, although if you are bringing kids, there are not many options unless they can take spicy food. We asked the waiter to put the condiments on the sides so the kids ate the dish. They had the fried chicken bao and ordered second round so must be good!.
Family Friendly

delicious - absolutely delicious π€€
If you want silky and yummy wontons, this place is a must.
Was visiting Melbourne for the AO - got in late around 8:30pm, walked across from the place we were staying around 9:15pm and this place was PACKED - full of people, such a vibe and the food was delicious.
It was so good I came back the next day for some more barramundi and scampi wontons - the chilli and spring onion oil on them, amazing. So so so so good!!!
Highly recommend - wine list is fab too

Great food! The flavours and the way they mix together were really good. We tried a range of the seafood and meat dishes and were very pleased with them. Atmosphere is amazing with the bar and music. It is a bit on the louder side but was still such a great vibe!

Lucy Liu is a very busy and packed restaurant in Melbourne and I do encourage you to make reservation in advance as they get really busy especially during dinner time. We were lucky to get two counter seats during their busy dinner slot.
Pacific oysters: pretty average. Nothing special. Can skip
Soft shell crab wrap: decent and pretty nice. Good portion soft shell crab that is crispy and juicy. Good to share for two lax
Turmeric spiced cauliflower: VERY good and I highly recommend to order. Itβs one of the most memorable cauliflower dishes I have had in my life. The mix of the turmeric, sauce on the well fried cauliflower gave a very unique flavour and taste to this dish. We enjoyed this dish very much!
Service was prompt and awesome. Restaurant vibe is great and being able to watch the kitchen staff and chef is action at the counter table gave us a unique dining experience :)

We visited to celebrate my birthday and let Lucy choose 7 plates for us, and I am so glad we did. The portions were surprisingly generous compared to many other places offering banquet style menus.
The food was amazing. The turmeric fried cauliflower and sashimi were standout dishes, and the steamed barramundi in chilli sauce was absolutely delicious.
The staff were fantastic. Very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about what they serve. I also loved their cocktails. Bold and Beautiful was definitely a great choice.
The restaurant has a really nice vibe inside, and it does get busy, so I recommend making a reservation. Overall, an excellent experience and highly recommended.
