This place is absolutely wonderful. What attracted me here was the fond reviews I've red over…read moreGoogle for this place. So after struggling to find a decent Chinese restaurant in the berbs, I did have high expectations for this gem. Although the street appeal probably isn't anything to woo at, and inside is a tad bit dated, yet is still humble in a family restaurant kind of way. I feel it may have been the owners who were working the front of house, and they were both lovely. They clearly have been in the business a while and did a good job and making us feel comfortable, and giving us a little giggle as well. The menu had heaps of choose from. Seemed as if there were a few extra options compared to other basic Chinese restaurants, including a traditional and western dessert menu. I had the Chicken Satay dish off the chef special menu. It was amazing. The sauce was flavoursome and certainly didn't seem like out of a jar type of thing. It was served with broccoli pieces as well as a little burning flame in the middle of the plate. My partner had the Sizzling Steak Mongolian style dish and the pieces were tender and juicy, with lovely sweet and tangy Mongolian flavours through-out. The plate was also served with vegetables. I love this place. It's my new found gem. I've been searching a while for a nice place to grab some quality Chinese food, and I think I've found my stop. This place isn't anything designer or high-end perhaps, but it still possess a charming old-school look and humble home-style meals, which is something I look when dining at Asian restaurants in the berbs.

Oh never mind... The seating inside is a bit basic, but most people come here for the takeaway anyway, so it doesn't really matter. I never see more than one or 2 sets of people dining in at a time. I myself have only ever had takeaway, so how it is? Well, it's not bad. I've had plenty better, but I've also had plenty worse. It really does sit somewhere in the middle. They have some nice items on the menu, but there's nothing that makes me tell people "I visit this place for the (insert menu item here)". There's no real menu item I would say they call their own. That being said the food is perfectly fine. They are a little dragon but that doesn't mean they're worth a little score. Let's just say "good but not great".

The first few bites were great and satisfying. However, towards the end, I felt that I have had enough. It felt like there was too much oil in what would be quite a refreshing dish. Saying that I would consider it good. If you are looking for a flavor kick, this might be it. Experience - Nice simple coffee shop setting. Decent price. Friendly and helpful staffs. There were a few times I thought I saw the staffs chatting with their customers at the table. Reminds me of the old coffee shops I go to. Returning - At the moment, my preference would be something less oily. However, I would still return if I am looking for a good flavor kick!

Do you like authentic Chinese Takeaway? Do you enjoy thin strips of meat with a wonderful authentic…read moresauce? Then Silver Swan Chinese Takeaway is not the place for you. First, let me say there's NOTHING WRONG with the food you get at Silver Swan. Absolutely nothing at all! The problem is that it panders to the Western idea of what Eastern food should be. If you order a steak meal, you don't get thin strips of meat. Instead you get thick chunks of steak with a thick overly flavoursome sauce. Again, I have to say there is NOTHING wrong with that at all if that's what you like. If however, you like an authentic Chinese meal with thin strips of steak & a light sauce then this isn't the place for you. Also of note is the delivery service. If you are local to Silver Swan you can have your meal delivered.

The springs rolls we recieved with our meal were actually cooked and tasted pretty good. Surprisingly... The fried rice was the typical fried rice you would recieve from a chinese resturant. Nothing special though. Honestly... Avoid this place at all costs, do not waste your time as the owners clearly do not care about you or your repeat business.

Okay, it is basically a pan-Asian restaurant, which means that there are dishes on the menu from all over Asia, and the menu itself is actually quite extensive as well. Yeah, it wasn't bad, but it didn't have the charm that more specialised Asian restaurants tend to have, and it can be a little tricky finding the way into the place as well. Still, it was rather nice.

I remember as a small child driving past this place, and that fact that I'm 32 now and it's still there is a testament to the quality food you get at this place. As with all Asian restaurants it's the satay I gravitate towards, and they certainly don't disappoint. There was a strong nutty flavour with this one that I really enjoyed. The spring rolls were really nice, but... ... my partner disagrees. She thinks the place is very ordinary and not worth the fuss I make over it. She's only been the once and that was enough for her. I had a bit of her beef with black bean and it was very nice. What she doesn't like about it I don't know. Either way, I'm the one writing this review so I'll rate it based on my opinions and I was impressed! She's just going to have to deal with it...
