Harden's says
Bun House changed to Wun's on 24 July 2019, and is now a "1960s-style Hong Kong tea room and late night bar", set across two floors in Soho, mimicing the communal, open-air cafes and restaurants in Hong Kong known as ‘dai pai dong’.
Harden's survey result
Summary
“A great find” – Z He and Alex Peffly’s Soho 60s-style ‘tea room and bar’ in Soho is “not your standard Chinese”. Instead, it serves turbocharged versions of Cantonese classics, such as char sui using Iberico pork, alongside ambitious cocktails and house-made rice wine. The couple’s Bun House, originally on this site, moved to Chinatown two years ago.
Summary
The Soho branch of Bun House changed to Wun’s in late July 2019 – too late for this year’s survey – and, still under the ownership of Z He and Alex Peffly, is now a ‘1960s-style tea room and late night bar’. Set across two floors in Soho, it aims to mimic the communal, open-air cafes and restaurants in Hong Kong known as ‘dai pai dong’.

Summary
“Fantastic bao buns” win praise from the small but super-enthusiastic fan club of this year-old Cantonese Soho café on corner of Greek and Old Compton Streets; and “it‘s such a cute little space” too. Downstairs is a bar, Tea Room, complete with late licence.
For 31 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Wun's Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Such a lovely place to spend an evening. The food was fab - the clay pots in particular, with crispy, crunchy rice stuck to the bottom, were a joy. Cocktails were good, though a little mixed. Service was really jolly and attentive. "
"Cumin lamb was excellent"
