The prawn dumplings were really delicious, we also ordered the cheese spring rolls which are…read morebasically your average mozzarella sticks (wouldn't order these again) and a lobster slider. I would suggest to use different bread with the lobster dish and perhaps add more filling considering it's $12 for one small roll. The Vietnamese coffee is one of the best I've ever had!!! Would suggest to order this cold if you like coffee! The service here is also fast, however sometimes they have forgotten things like our drink order and getting their attention was difficult. The atmosphere is trendy, has good mood lighting and the music is pleasant. However during our experience, we noticed several giant cockroaches crawling over the bar which didn't leave us feeling all that great about what we just ate. There were minor critiques but overall my recommendation would be if you're looking for somewhere quick to go for lunch or dinner, this would be it, but be prepared to pay a little more for small dishes and still be left feeling hungry.

I was here a few nights ago for my first visit and my wife couldn't resist writing a review. I…read morecouldn't resist going back and now I can't resist sharing my views on Gin Long Canteen. We arrived in time for an early dinner and had a bit of luck and got seats for three right away. Like my first visit, we were at counter seats, but this time at the back, overlooking the bar instead of the kitchen. I've always been a fan of casual restaurants where you can see "the whole show." Gin Long has nothing to hide and a lot to be proud of. It's a fun watch. We started off with drinks. Like our previous visit, service was quite good, despite it being a very busy Friday. In fact, I am amazed by how popular this place has become in just a couple of months. And I am also amazed at how well they run the dining room. Greeted promptly-Check. Seated or guided to the waiting area like you're the centre of the universe-Check. Drink ordering promptly-Check. Food ordering promptly-Check. Add-ons, special requests cheerfully handled-Check. Get your tab quickly when you are ready to go-Check. Never feel rushed or pushed-Check. Take note Adelaide restauranteurs, Gin Long gives Master Classes in customer service. But service alone can't get you 5 stars. We came to eat. After perusing the menu and making a dent in our first round of drinks, we settled on: Smoked Trout Lettuce Cups and Sugar Cane Prawns (served moo shu style)--both were repeats from out first visit. We added crispy Nom Nom Barramundi and an order of Prawn Dumplings. Out of the blue, we we also given a complimentary serving of the Slow Cooked Thai Beef. Everything got split three ways, so two large serves and 3 small serves totally packed us out--not one of us could manage another bite. The Nom Nom Barramundi is one of those dishes that's as fascinating to look at as it is to eat. Crispy, juicy pieces of crumbed and fried Barramundi are piled in a deep fried, curled and cleaned Barramundi. It's a beautiful presentation, worthy of how good the fish is to eat. The lime chilli garlic dipping sauce is divine and the perfect choice for this dish. Like all the sauces we've had here, it has a little bite to it. The prawn dumplings were quite good--but the curry sauce they came with took them to the next level. It seems they have given great thought to matching all the components of each dish to maximum effect. A surprise hit for all of us was the Slow Cooked Thai Beef serving they gave us. It was so tender and flavourful and it honestly almost melted in your mouth. It's definitely on the list for our next visit and I'd recommend it for your first visit--pretty much along with everything else. I'd love to tell you about dessert, but it just wasn't possible. I tried to split one three ways, but my wife and our friend just said, "NO!" Sitting in front of the bar, we got to watch them at work. They made a special effort to entertain us by making some of our drinks on top of, rather than behind, the bar. It was quite something to watch as they prepared Pandan shooters with two floats on top of the Pandan syrup. They said they'd done some serious work trying to come up with a good combination drink to introduce the Pandan flavour to their customers. I tested it several times--they succeeded with me. Lastly, there's something unique about the atmosphere here. They call themselves a canteen and they carry the theme well with lots of casual counter seating and many big tables for large groups or several smaller groups at one table. It somehow feels like a big party at someone's house--it's all very comfortable and friendly. It's easy to catch the eye of a staff member and when they stop to see what you want, you seem to get 100% of their attention. Adelaide offers lots of choices for dining out, but I've found few as unique and satisfying as the Gin Long Canteen. I'll definitely be back and I give this eatery my highest recommendation. I only hope that they don't get spoiled by too much success! Eat, drink and be merry, but not too much! JD

Do not order uber eats from this restaurant. It was the worst and most over priced Thai food I have…read moreever eaten. Both the green curry chicken and pad kra pao were mainly undercooked potatoes, tough large pieces of cabbage, overcooked old fried tofu and very old dead beans. As far as i know massaman curry is the only dish that has potato in it. How can they justify charging $39 for a container full of undercooked potatoes, old tofu, sauce and a few bits of chicken. Did the restaurant think they could get away cooking such food as it was an uber eats delivery.??? So people do not order uber eats from this restaurant!!!!

Why have I not been here before? For some reason I have walked past this place many times. I think…read morethat it might be a signage issue. But this place is really lovely. If you are looking for a classy cocktail bar in a beautiful old building with lovely décor, this place has the goods. The interior decoration is unusual, but cool. Kind of a upmarket eclectic feel. Large arm chairs and vintage furniture, while having a modern touch and a weird seated area with a wall of stings. Kind of hard to explain. Nonetheless, it is also about the drinks. Great selection of spirits and cocktails. Extensive menu, you will struggle to choose. The cocktails are well priced and do use good quality spirits in the mixes. The bar staff are attentive and there is complete waiter service here. So, find a seat and they will look after you. The cocktails are really lovely, I had a Pink Grapefruit and Tequila cocktail. Very fresh and tasty. The rim of the glass was rolled in sugar which cut through the citrus. Lovely bar and I will return on a regular basis!

Unassuming little gem in the upmarket inner southern suburb. We have frequented this family…read morerestaurant for the last 17 years. First impression of this place doesn't really make for a lasting one due to its outdated interior and fittings. There is little ambience, saved by the warm lighting. It is a very 'typical' Chinese restaurant with tacky decorations and scattered Chinese ornaments / pictures which doesn't flow well throughout the space. Interior aside, lets talk food. It is the primary reason for our repeated return. We come here for the seafood with the cheesy lobster dish being a favourite of ours. However, market price for lobster at the moment is around $170 per kg, so we gave that a miss tonight. Service is slow, so, if you can order well in advance, you should, especially for takeaways and traditional, highly prized dishes such as lobster, king crabs, mud crabs, Peking duck and drunken chicken. Tonight, we had the salt and pepper prawns (shell optional - why? who wants to eat the shell?), fried barramundi, Peking ribs, salted fish fried rice, chicken and jellyfish, pork belly in Dong-Po sauce, prawn balls with greens, seafood noodles and hot and sour soup as starters. Everything was lovely, wasn't a big fan of the ribs, because I found the sauce too heavy in sourness. Barramundi wasn't as well seasoned as it could be. Other than that, it was great! Everyone enjoyed the shared meals and pretty much rolled out of there. The place might be outdated, but the consistency of the food is why we return year after year. Price wise, I think it is very reasonable given the area it is located in. Highly recommended.

I have tasted all the other food in restaurants in goodwood but these are far better than anything…read moreelse here keep up the good work 5 stars very helpful staff couldn't ask for a better restaurant thank you never close

Omakase! OMG - what a fun way to dine at this place…read more Ascend above the noise and bustle of the Electra House bars on the ground, and you arrive in an open space with a mixture of high (bar-style) and regular (dining room style) tables to suit your group dynamics. You have chopsticks AND knife and fork at hand, to fit in with the variety of Asian Fusion food offerings. The dishes are as appetising as the photos suggest. But once our knowledgeable server described the Omakase option, we were hooked! Four 'rounds' of dishes from the menu; changed on a daily basis - so think of it as the banquet option, but you never know which one until you arrive. Especially for a first time visit, it's the best way to go.

The edgy on-trend interior including 'Electra Blue' painted floors, neon signs and light boxes surrounded by Tasmanian Oak framing, give the sense of "You have arrived!" as soon as you set foot in the venue. With many years experience in Modern Australian, Italian, Korean and Japanese cuisine, Executive Chef Jamie Kang uses these skilled techniques paired with flavours from his Korean heritage in our contemporary asian menu. Using fresh South Australian produce, he creates a seamless marriage between Eastern, European and Australian flavours.
