I visited Luyang on Wednesday and returned only three days later. Yes it is that good. While it may not be up to the Shanghai village or Hu Tong standards, the dumplings here are still good and are very cheap. I came here with my partner and we ordered a serving of the fried pork dumplings ($8 for 15 dumplings) and the steamed dumpling combination (around $12), which included a selection of different types of dumplings. The service is charming and the girls who wait on the tables are so friendly and efficient that you just have to sit back and relax. Luyang may not be luxurious or trendy but there is free tea on your tables, and some sweet dumplings are heading your way, so sit back and relax.

No real reason... scan of fellow hungry patrons' tables and eyeing what was being coming out of the kitchen. Both seemed very popular!! the the masses do not lie!!! The vermicelli was huge and so much flavour!! had the "wok" flavour if u know I mean. sign of a good cook n or a wok that has been used a long time. add some chillie oil for that little kick. The only downside... by the time I got to the end... dish was a bit heavy due to the amount of oil used. This can't be avoided I guess such stir fries require ample oil. At least it wasn't dripping or sitting in an inch of oil at the bottom. The rice popcorn? hmmmmm nothing to rave about I guess but comfort food all the same... who doesn't like fried chicken?

DO NOT GO PASS: - The Taiwanese style burger ( should be called a bao!) - not the best that i have tried, the belly could be a little more juicy, but it is still melt in your mouth goodness. I am impressed with the size of the bun (bao) though - wow! - The Deep Fried Chicken Chop! - this is crazy good! great with some rice! - Taiwanese style dumplings! - and the Taiwanese style brisket soup!!! - for dessert - the strawberry pina colada!!! Holly Molly - how does a taiwanese joint make it so good?!?!? This place has great taste and i hope they never make any adjustments for the customer. Beware of the spicy menu items, they come .... "spicy"!!!!

Follow me on Instagram @realayrtonevans…read more Walking into Kitchen Republik, is like walking into a food court in some place like Taiwan. Once your seated at your table and start to flip through the menu, you'll see for yourself the amazing number of choices that's on offer. There is a dumpling theatre, where you can watch the chef's making all the dumplings. And there are all these different signs everywhere - none of them in English. In fact most signs around Box Hill aren't in English so it's like stepping into a completely different cultural hub that is unique to Melbourne. I order their beef noodle soup - which is a specialty in Taiwan and as they say, is made exactly the way they it is made in Taiwan. I also order four of their crab and pork meat dumplings. After around 15 minutes, the waitress brings out my first dish - the beef noodle soup. Around a minute or so later, my dumplings arrive in a cute little basket, complete with their house made dumpling sauce. My soup is swimming with vegetables and noodles that strangely remind me of underwater sea creatures, with their rigged edges. The vegetables and the soup itself is so fresh, you can smell the freshness as your biting into the perfectly cooked and self-marinated beef. And all the ingredients come together to create a scintillating experience that will delight your tastebuds. My dumplings were so soft and exploded with flavour as I bit into them - like all good dumplings should. Really yummy meat, perfectly done. Overall, the whole meal left me feeling revitalised, full, and very satisfied. I would definitely recommend it as a place you have to try at least once. You won't be disappointed. 5/5.

Food Republik is really fun & a tiny bit overwhelming for first timers. It's set out like a food…read morecourt with lots of little stalls around the perimeter, but is actually one big restaurant with a huge range of options on the menu. The menu is broken down into cuisines (Korean style, Taiwanese style, Japanese style etc) & the cuisines match the little stalls around the perimeter. Everything on the menu is numbered and there is a notepad on the table where you write down the numbers of the food you want & when you're ready, you use the buzzer on the table to buzz your waiter & hand him your written down order! It's actually pretty efficient and it's nice to have it all sorted without having to flip through the menu while a waiter waits for you to find the thing you want to order! You can also buzz for water or menus with different buttons which I loved! I had a phenomenal beef brisket noodle soup (the brisket was so tender, the noodles perfect and the soup delicious) & really tasty fried Korean chicken drumettes. We also shared some dumplings which were underwhelming. Definitely a unique experience and some tasty food to be had next time you venture out to Box Hill!

They offer good homely food that is tasty and at a good price. They have many entrée/snack items that are great for sharing. The food is simple, served without any fancy things on the side that complicate the meal. You get what you want, and it always hits the spot. I recommend their beef noodle soup (ask for it spicy), its great comfort food. Another good one for sharing is the spring onion pancake. This isn't a place you go to except a 'nice' restaurant style meal, its more of a quick feed type of place. There are always locals here eating, alone or in a group. If you want to try something out of the ordinary Chinese food, I would recommend going here, the prices are good and the food is tasty.
