πŸ‘πŸ‘ One of my go-to for live steam barramundi cravings. The live pipis with spicy XO sauce and black fungus, mushroom, and cucumber combo were delicious too. I also appreciate how helpful and accommodating the staff were - dining - in or ordering via uber eats. I personally will be returning soon but yo... People often mention meat,

    The prices have gone up a fair bit at this place. Used to be a value for money type of restaurant, but not so much now. We were a group of 9 and 4 were children. They charged us tea for all of us, which is I found inappropriate and not the norm. The taste is still good and serves authentic Canton dishes. Their service is great and changed our side plates half way during dinner.

    The environment is okay, I'm used to the crowds expected in Cantonese restaurants. But the products are really different. Can you explain why one pot comes out cold? The taste is also too strong, too salty. The most interesting thing is the lady at the front desk. If you have mental problems, you should ask a psychiatrist instead of showing your lightbulb eyes to the diners. When we entered, my friend asked me to order in Cantonese, so that their attitude would be better... I don't believe in the evil use of Mandarin. Sure enough, what I got was a Sima face and a pout. If you are menopausal or don’t want to work, you can rest at home. You are not necessarily required to provide services. The product is poor and the attitude is bad. Do you rely on you to attract customers with a lightbulb eye?

    Did it lost the plot or did I order the wrong dish? $27.00 for a mediocre Sweet and Sour Pork

    Stay clear of this place. Overpriced rubbish on a plate. Pros: - Quail was tender and juicy. Very good. - Donut stick was fresh and crunchy Cons: - Lettuce pork dish was $6 really?! Raw onions and pork. The meat could fit into a tea cup. - Chicken corn soup tasted like water. - Century egg congee had half a Century egg, scraps of meat - Black pepper beef... So tender... It was blue. The cut of meat had a chewy piece every bite. Struggle was real, felt like raw meat with rubber bands. Was also super dry. I was here a little over a year ago, it seemed alright from memory. I won't be back though.

    Horrible experience, the lobster dish was drench in water liquid that made the meat and noodles all soggy and tasteless. Sweet and sour pork had no meat, and was cover in a brown paste which indicates it was fry using recycled oil.

    The restaurant was empty except for 2 tables, we were sat right next to the only other patrons in a pretty cramped corner. Call me old fashioned, but I still like social distancing! Whilst looking at the menu, we asked for water and tea for the table. Two filthy plastic cups were put down. The cups had stains all over them and mould/ dirt on the INSIDE and outside at the bottom. When I told the waitress there was dirt inside the cup, and I'd like another, she said no, it's fine, it's only at the bottom, underneath. I knew it was caked with dirt inside the cup as I had just scratched some of it off with my nail.. I said no, they are filthy, and this is unacceptable for a restaurant. As she went to get new cups, I noticed my tea cup on the table was also visibly dirty around the rim. We told her we wouldnt be staying, and left. It looks like we might have saved ourselves a bad night, after reading the bad reviews about off tastes and recycled oil. I'm wondering if this place has been inspected...

    Go to place when I am home sick. Great canto food. Seafood is not the cheapest in town but always fresh and yum. Don't be fooled by its quietness. It gets busy after 8 so booking is always recommended.

    Stuff is around by moving our table and taking too long to take our orders. The food is good whoever. Great place for a late night supper.

    Great value of lobster. $58 for a lobster of 650g. Highly recommend deep fried lobster with garlic and black bean. However visit this place on Easter Sunday and staff completely forget to put the order through the system. Waiting for 30 mins without any foods served. Ruin excitement of the night. Manager need to improve the operational flow or add extra staff to achieve better management but staff is friendly even though that is a big mistake and really make it up at the end

    This is my favourite spots for Cantonese cuisine.. still remains very high standard even due to so many lockdown and hard to survive with business.. always love their crab dishes, sweet and sour pork, lobster etc.. too many to share.. also nice service and reasonable price

    Bad takeaway review: Roast duck rice. Using duck neck to make up the money seems smart but is actually stupid. I used to go there often, so be careful in the future.

    Decent Cantonese style restaurant. Shame that the interior seems slightly unkept with reeks of cigarettes smoke.

    Been here multiple times for late night feeds. Good food, good service, reasonable prices. They close quite late so I know I’ll always have a place to go after-hours.
