利苑 Refined Cantonese dining at Li Yuan.

A refined home for 粵菜 in South Yarra

Tucked just off Chapel Street, Li Yuan is a destination for authentic Cantonese fine dining — masterful technique, premium produce and the kind of attentive service a special occasion deserves.

Our kitchen is known for hours-long slow-boiled soups, live seafood from the tank, and prized delicacies like abalone, sea cucumber and shark fin, alongside delicate yum cha and celebrated regional dishes from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Sichuan.

Part of the Zhongyin Group, with acclaimed venues across China, Li Yuan brings that same standard to Melbourne — a quiet, elegant room for memorable meals and gatherings.
