👍👍 My partner and I aren't local to this restaurant and thought we'd stop in for dinner after a long day. It was an hour before closing time, with no reservation and the staff welcomed us in with no hesitation and got us a table straight away - we were amazed with the friendly staff, attentive service,...

👍👍 Great size with geat taste! Super amazing! One of the best meal in Victoria ever!

👍👍 A hidden gem in Clayton. This resto, famous or its claypot dishes, offering great selection of Southern Chinese food. I like the food as these are delicious and not too salty as we often found in other Chinese restos. The price is quite inexpensive perhaps the main customers are Monash Uni's student...

👍 Had some mixed roast in dried noodles. Taste-wise was really good. Main gripe was that of all the crispy pork given to me only one actually had crispy skin on it. Not sure where the rest went. Lots of boney duck portions also. The other cooked rice dishes looked good and will be back to try them.

😠 Visited this restaurant today and from start to finish was a terrible experience. I have been to hundreds of Chinese restaurants around Melbourne and the world and this by far is the worst and most expensive for what I was served. Overpriced, dry, flavourless. Tasted packaged or frozen. Duck AND dum...

👍👍 Edit 15/7 The partner and I went for round two last night and can confirm consistency in this Cantonese perfection. We ordered pretty much the same again with the addition of a Honey Chicken; light on batter, crunchy fried noodle, perfectly cooked chicken. We love Wing, and the owners are lovely....

Chinese dishes & yum cha offered in a relaxed setting with a warm atmosphere & traditional art.

Traditional Chinese dishes whipped up in a laid-back locale with tile floors & a takeaway menu.

😠 Let's start with the price wasn't cheap compared to the other Yum Cha place in the area. Waiter are rude and not approachable, either they try to ignore us when we raise our hand or they are just partially blinds (excuses me). We pay extra on public holiday, surely the waiter/ress get penalty so wha...

Unpretentious restaurant with simple seating and tiled floors, serving familiar Chinese meals.

😠 Very disappointing. Ordered dumplings as dine in customer. After 30 minutes nothing had arrived. Enquired politely and was told by a grumpy waitress that I had only ordered a few minutes ago. ?? Another 15 minutes passed and I went to the counter to ask a for a refund. This sent staff scurrying a...

😠 Very disappointed with my experience on Mother's Day 2023. Placed an order over the phone for 8 meals and was advised to arrive at the restaurant in 25 minutes for pick up. I got there, and had to wait another 20 minutes since the food wasn't ready, with no communication from staff. When I was given...

👍 Came during lunch time and it wasn't that busy, in fact it was only us in the whole place. However there were a lot of online orders. The cuts they used for the pork belly on rice were very lean so it's a little dry to our liking. The sir fry intestine was cooked well as there was very little smell...

😠 Brace yourself for the disaster that was my experience at Diamond Court. The service was slower than a snail on a coffee break, and the staff's indifference bordered on impressive. The food, oh, where do I begin? It was a culinary tragedy – flavourless, overcooked, and a clear violation of my taste...

Large, bustling restaurant over 2 floors, serving Asian dishes and yum cha, open late on weekends.

😠 HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED. Terrible experience. 4 of us ordered one lobster banquet, and the lobster is so bad that it is stinks and not eatable at all. We reported to the staff and her immediate answer is "that's normal, this is the taste of frozen lobsters", without even check with the kitchen. We...

😐 Very "meh". Only went in because nothing else was open. Duck with noodles had little flavour, hardly any sauce or seasonings for noodles. Only $11. Honestly better off getting roast meats at China bar. Seafood was ok. Service was very pleasant and polite though.
