Dont order the papaya salad it was revolting. Most other dishes were very oily so no to our liking. There are much nicer places to eat in poipu than this.

Probably the worst service experience I've ever had in my entire life... We were staying at the Hyatt to celebrate a friends Birthday & wanted to go out for a B-day dinner. We called into Yum Cha for a big party reservation (15pp) and they told us the soonest we could come was 8:00. We showed up on time and... More

The appetizers are amazing. This is a reason to go back. We've been here more than once and have had most of their appetizers. To top that off, service is excellent.

We happened to be driving within the area and stopped in the Yum Cha Asian Eatery for supper to fulfill a craving for Asian food. With no reservation, we were still promptly seated at a table by the window overlooking the beautiful Poipu Bay Golf Course. The Asian-fusion dishes come in large portions and are not bad, although we have... More

Daily lunch special was good as well as soft shell crab special. The location was nice but as empty as it was, it took a while for the food to get to us.

The rice was excellent and the Asian beef was really good; the tempura shrimp was okay but it was not real hot. Servers were great and you can walk there from the Grant Hyatt

The location doesn't fit the food that is served here. Service felt slow and forced. Food was pretty good, but the location is the golf club at the Hyatt.

Beautiful restaurant with great service. Had the Poke & the Kung Po Chicken for dinner. Accommodated our food allergies. Provided shuttle service to & from the Grand Hyatt.
