My husband and I enjoy this restaurant. The portions are very generous. We always start with the dumplings! I highly recommend the Sizzling Prawn Platter as the sauce it comes with is delicious!

Food was excellent. Place was congested and hot. I guess thats why so many people phoned to order and collect. Overall good service and food.

Food here us very nice but the owners are so loud. And the sound of that bell ringing every 2 minutes is very annoying.

Meals are fresh , prawns are very small and only 7 in a prawn fried rice meal. Not worth it for the price.

Found China plates chicken chow mein dry tasteless and its like they boiled the chicken when you could find a piece and just threw into the noodles very disappointed. One would think this been their home food o it would be a pleasure to eat.

Visited with the family and enjoyed it very much. The sizzling platters are best. Also enjoyed the stir fry in peanut sauce 10/10. Avoid the sweet and sour pork ribs as they fry it in batter and theres not much meat. For dessert we had the fried ice cream. Delicious!!!

Great service and portions sizes for both dine in and take away. Been here a few times and always more than satisfied with the delicious meals. The sizzling beef is what I had last, with generous portions of beef and lovely, crisp vegetables. Great flavours, I would definitely recommend.

Review №36

If youre into lack lustre service, re-hashed frozen food dressed up with worn out attempts at authentic Chinese food, please waste your money. Otherwise steer clear and find a better place to dine at or get take away!

Never disappointed. We keep going back. The quality of the food has been constant throughout the years....and of course, George is a no nonsense host... LOL.

Review №42

Sizzling platters are great. Food is always good.the only issue I have with this place is that you can’t order dessert without ordering a main meal . I think that’s quite silly and you’ll lose out on customers by keeping that policy.

A cosy little spot in a small centre. I made a reservation for two and was given the worst possible table, despite the restaurant being less than half full. Our table was next to the toilet, which was been used very often. Food is prepared quick, and is of fair quality. The waiters though, they are really something else. Id recommend ordering from the take away and sitting in your car. I will never return.

Tucked away in riverside, this resuturant is a winner and is always busy. Their food is fresh hot and tasty.Try their sizzling platters, its amazing.Ample safe parking. They could do with more seating as they can get very busy.Chicken chow mein is delicious. Also tried their deep fried ice cream which was awesome.They also do take aways if u in a hurry.

I just ordered food and disappointed on how bland and tasteless it is,the rice was uncooked and the noodles had no favour.I requested spicy walnuts and got mild.The quality is definitely downgraded from eating there previously.

Review №59

Been dining here for many years and the food and service has always been good. Unfortunately tonight we left halfway through our meal due to it being spoilt by cigarette smoke from patrons smoking in in the doorway. I am not prepared to let my evening be spoilt in this way. We brought it to the attention of our waiter but he just said sorry but did not offer to resolve the situation.I will not be returning . The smell of 4 people smoking 3m away in the doorway would spoil any meal no matter how good the food.

Restaurant owners where arrogant to staff and refused to change or correct our meal as it was not to our liking. Dont advise going there.

Awesome Food

Review №62

Probably the worst service I have ever received. We were refused dessert because we didnt have any of their main meals, we were asked to leave the table before we had finished our drinks. I would not advise anyone to go there and be treated the same.

Review №85

Got seated at a dirty table folllowed by terrible service. Dodgy kitchen. In resturant toilet door has bolt locks on the outside! Begs to question what are they locking in the toilet. Eventually had two different waiters take down my order, repeating it four times, got the intial drink order wrong. Finally gave up and walked out with out even getting my meal. Not even deserving of a review. Just a rant...

I only rated this place 1 star, because Google wont allow you to go lower. Used to go here all the time despite how rude that little man who owns the place can be. At dinner, last week, we saw him verbally abuse two of his waiters. The words he used, especially on the female waiter, was so disgusting! What a little little man he is. Im proud to never eat here again!
