Dumpling & Chinese Cuisine
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 Situated right across from Melbourne University towards the end of Swanston St. This nondescript Chinese restaurant actually is a hidden gem. We came on Friday around 7 pm and it is quite busy which is a good sign. The stir fried pork was the best dish amongst all the dishes we ordered and the porti...

好食光 (Hǎo shí guāng)
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 Our regular go to place for lamb hot pot and bbq skewers. One of the best in Melb (if not arguably the best) at very affordable prices. Place is always packed with mainlanders, which says something about the authenticity of it. The $55 combo lamb pot is plenty for two (comes with two drinks) but...

Vietnamese restaurant
👍👍 Love this hidden Vietnamese restaurant! This is the first time for me to have lunch here and I was surprised by the amazing food they offered. My partner and I ordered beef pho and pork broken rice, both of them tasted wonderful. The pork was tender and juicy and I love the variety of veggies they...

LTJ Food Service Chinese Dumpling Restaurant
Dumpling restaurant
👍 I guess this place for those who have a taste for north Chinese food. I liked the pilaaf as thr lamb was very soft and juicy.. The much talked about lamb skewers were just ok. Wife summarized by saying that the place was ok ok types.. Her way of saying that it was just average. Staff was good and f...

Ai Hue Restaurant
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 Ai Hue makes such amazing Chinese food. The food is fresh, very filling and full of flavour. The owners are lovely and customer service is great. I personally recommend the egg noodles with soup and prawn dunplings and their clay pot rice dishes. All their dishes can be perfectly complemented with t...

BAY AKA BBQ 巴依老爷新疆烤肉
Halal restaurant
😠 TW: Racism Alert. YOU HAVE TO SPEAK MANDARIN CHINESE FLUENTLY or you won't get served. I'm fluent in Mandarin but I spoke English and the one guy who works there as waiter and chef instantly said "No English" whilst waving his hands to go away and walked away. When he came back, I spoke in Mandarin...

Bamboo Garden
Chinese restaurant
🫤 Disappointing! The 'seafood' laksa had 4 prawns which were tough & that was it for the seafood. The only vegetable was cabbage ugh! Smelled horrible. You'd think the spice of the soup would overcome that dreadful cabbage & probably would have done if there had been any spice! The noodles were good...

Tian Tian
Chinese restaurant
🫤 A lot of the reviews mention cheap prices but understandably prices have gone up over the years. Pricing is ok but I wouldn't necessarily call out the affordability. I think they're probably better at their main and cold dishes with an authentic Northern Chinese focus. So this review is partially a...

FooDao
Fast food restaurant
🫤 Great variety of Chinese street food on the menu, and a wonderful restaurant... on paper. Unfortunately this place does not meet the hype and expectations. Beef rib in the beef soup was raw. The only way braised beef can be raw like this is if it was not cooked for long enough. Mongolian lamb suimai...

Peony Flower Inn
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 This is a small, strip mall style, cash only, diner with possibly the best fresh home cooked style mostly Cantonese food around. I have not yet had a single dish that didn't make my tastebuds sit up and beg for more. My absolute favourites so far are salted egg yolk deep fried chicken wings, Korean...

Yu & Restaurant
Chinese restaurant
😐 Ordered takeaway. Food was reasonable without being sensational. Overpriced for takeaway ($87 for the below - two meat dishes, a simple vegetable dish and plain rice), particularly when Box Hill is one suburb over.

Chef Chen Brunswick
Chinese restaurant
😠 I am Chef here, The managment team asked for reduced all the staffs working hours and we had no problem with this at all, but suddenly they cut down my wages without any permission. That's illegally and pretending that's not their fault and pitiful that they couldn't making more money. Finally I dec...
