This place We loved the kai jiew bpu (crab omelette) (5/5)- crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, and packed with rich crab flavor, plus the golden puff was totally crave-worthy.

Chilies, chilies, chilies! You'd be hard-pressed to find a Szechuan specialty without a red hot…read morechili as the essential ingredient. Everyone's had Chinese food before, but it's once you focus on regional cuisines that you start appreciating the discrepancies within this massive culinary realm. The most famous Chinese restaurant in Sydney happens to be purely Szechuan. Luckily for me, Glebe is home to Spicy Szechuan, where I've had some of the best Chinese food yet. They surely don't skimp on quality at this place; most of the plates are large and are so packed with flavor that you instantly forget that Chinese takeout exists. Don't come here if you're vegetarian--the best dishes have succulent pork, moist chicken, and tender beef. The crispy deep-fried chicken with chilies is to die for. A half-chicken is fried to crunchy perfection and smothered in a bright red chili oil sauce. It's hard to explain, but the dried chili is just as vital to taste as it is for the heat level of the dish. But if I could recommend one thing, it would have to be the fish flavored eggplant (yu xiang qie zi). The name is a misnomer as there's no fish, but only meaty eggplant slices, ground pork, and a thick spicy sauce that is unparalleled in flavor. It might be the best version of this dish I've had. Oh, and sometimes there are tour buses parked in the front. It's that good.

We went on a Thursday night and the restaurant was relatively empty. Let me start out by saying the…read morefood was absolutely delicious. We ordered the spicy boiled fish, dan dan noodles, and scallion pancakes. All were very good! I'm knocking off 2 stars because of our overall experience. I consider myself an understanding customer. I kept an open mind and came here for the food, not the service. However, the treatment we received was beyond terrible. They make their customers order on tablets, which is totally fine. The problem was that the UI is completely in Chinese. Sure, there are photos of the food items, but all the buttons were in Chinese. I couldn't find an option to switch to English either. I'm not Chinese and cannot read Chinese, so I was very flustered. When I asked a waitress for help, she looked at me like I was a complete moron. She had the face like "duh, this is the button to add an item". So rude. This interaction definitely dampened by overall experience of the place. Conclusion: The food here is great, but you may experience a hard time if you are not a Mandarin speaker.

It was very nice inside and receives high praise on Google Reviews. We shared the Mongolian Lamb. It was fabulous. We don't have any Mongolian Lamb in the Chinese restaurants near us in Arizona. Very tasty Mongolian sauce and the lamb was very tender. Rice doesn't come with the entree's here, but a small bowl was only $4 AUD. If we would be in Sydney longer, we would go back.

Looks like this place rebranded itself to Chef n Wok. Based on the previous reviews, we had high…read morehopes, but I guess the quality went down with the name change. The best part of our meal was the bottled beer. The Mongolian beef was not cooked well, it was just soft and soggy in its sauce, which was overly sweet. It came out on a fajita platter sizzling, so truly impressive that it turned out as mushy as it did. There was a lot of potential for that dish to taste better. The stir fried noodles tasted like they had been cooked well at one point, but then frozen, reheated, and rinsed with water to remove any potential flavor that once existed. Despite the restaurant being mostly empty when we arrived, we were seated right in between two other occupied tables, which made it feel like we were all at one big dinner together instead of on our own separate date nights. The people working were very nice - just wish the food was better! This meal was one of our first meals in Sydney and made us really worried that all of our meals here would be overpriced and tasteless - thankfully, there are better options out there.

If you're in a noodle soup mood, then Mr. Chen Beef noodle is your place!…read more We came here after a long day of exploring the city and were hangry AF. The menus are digital and scanned from a tiny QR code which is pretty annoying if you're out with a non-tech savvy person like my mother. I ordered the wonton noodle soup and my mom went with the Lanzhou beef noodle. There is an option to choose your preferred thickness for the noodles. You can get it flat or round, thin or thiccck. After submitting the order we waited about 10 minutes for the soups to be out. I went with thick(ish) flat noodles and my mom got the thin. The noodles had great texture and held up well in the soup. The wonton had good skin to filling ratio and the bok choy was perfectly cooked. Their broth was a highlight, delivering a clear yet flavorful taste. I finished the whole bowl it was so good! My mom didn't complain about her order so I assume on her behalf it was good. Like, she called up our relatives to see if they wanted us to order to-go for them to try. Aside form the noodle soups, Mr Chen offers small plates/appetizers such as egg rolls, cucumber salad, dumplings, and stir fried noodles. The staff was quick and efficient. We paid with cash and I believe we were given a small discount. So pay in paper and not plastic! The vibes of the shop was calm and chill with soft light, wooden tables and chairs with water jugs at each table. The shop is located in a small plaza with 5 other restaurants and it's not too far from the trains. Overall, good noodle soups at a reasonable price. Service was quick and bellies were satisfied! Honestly, I'll never forget this noodle soup, it is definitely memorable in my foodie archive. Check them out if you're in the area!

Despite making a reservation online through their website, my name was not on the list. Thankfully,…read morethe restaurant was pretty empty (7.30pm on a Friday...hmmm), they seated 7 of us at a big table in a corner. FOOD -- One can choose either the buffet ($25pp) or the ala carte menu. Note that the buffet does not include the soup base (ranging from $12-$16) or sauces (about $1.20 per type of sauce). We (bunch of finance geeks) spent over 15 mins debating if it was cheaper to do the buffet. In the end we chose not to. It turned out to be a good decision, cause the meal cost each of us around $21pp (excluding softdrinks). We ordered about 20-22 plates of veggies/meat. The food was pretty good, everything was quite fresh. My favourites are probably the spam & beef rolls. Who knew spam tasted so good when boiled in spicy broth ? :) SERVICE -- A.R.G.H. This is the only reason why Im giving this restaurant a 3 star instead of a 4. Ordering through the iPad is a stupid idea because you can only see 2-3 items per "page", so it was time consuming to "go-through" the menu. (especially when i am HUNGRY, A.R.G.H) Getting the attention of a waitress/waiter was the worst. Maybe because we were sitting in a corner but it was almost impossible to catch their attention. We gave up and took turns to walk over to the cashier counter each time we needed something from them. A.R.G.H They should consider doing what some korean restaurants do - putting an alert/bell system on each table. Lastly, I heard from my guy friends that the male bathroom was NASTY ! (boo!!)

The unique thing about this place is that they gave protective sleeves for your jackets because hotpot smells tend to stay with clothing for some time. Average spend is around $30 for the all you can eat menu (and also unlimited softdrink, but don't fill up on soft drink) which is very fair when there are other places which charge about $35 (without the drink thing).
