Decided to take a trip down memory lane and visit Pearl Garden…read more... very disappointed! After being seated I looked around to find so much dirt and neglect. Seated at the table right by the cash register, I could see on the floor, leaves! Leaves that had probably come in with the wind as customers walked- leaves tangled up,with the electric cords attached to cash register.Then I noticed the 4 plants in pots - dying, thick dust over them and dust I could write my name in on the wooden decorative edging below the plants. The mirror on the far wall was- you guessed it - filthy! with smeared wipe marks all over it. The veges and beancurd I ordered came with oyster sauce..I asked could it be changed to curry, no problem he said, except when it arrived I think they forgot the curry! My friend enjoyed her Mongolian Beef, but not the dirt and dust around us The service was prompt and with a smile, but I doubt that I and my friend will ever return.

Try the dim sims. They're amazing. Try the chicken wings…read more They're stunning. I've been bored by Chinese lately, but Pearl Garden manages to make the standard Chinese dishes something amazing. The honey mustard beef is SO delicious. Unfortunately, they don't have a big web presence, so you need to visit them for the menu, but it's well worth it. Depending on the dish, they're the best Chinese on Mount Dandenong - up there with Fairy Mountain.

In terms of service and value for money, Jade Pavillion offers great Chinese fare with a host that…read moretruly makes you wan to come back again. Sitting near the foot of the Dandenongs, and operating for as long as I can remember, Danny and the guys at Jade do a fantastic job when it comes to group bookings. My grandparents choose to come here for every birthday and occasion, and while at first I was skeptical, I have been converted. As a vegetarian, choices are usually down to an omelette or fried rice when it comes to some Chinese restaurants. (Even if you do get the fried rice, chances are you'll find prawns in it.) Knowing this from experience, I was glad to see a really good range of Bead Curd options, and when I spoke to the host, he ensured me I could order anything off the menu and they would make it vegetarian. I recommend the Tofu & Mixed Vegetable Satay. Served with rice on the side, this is a tantalizing dish that recently won 4 vegetarian diners over when we were there. The vegetables were crisp and delicious, and the satay sauce was the best I've ever had. A huge cheers to the host Danny for managing to make every group booking there a great night out. Oh, and as the restaurant has no license to sell alcohol, you can BYO wine, beer or whatever you like. Bringing your own 6 pack is a great touch, and a great way to save money for more food.
