Getting here is quite the drive for me; it's a good 1/2 hour if traffic is ok ... so I was…read moredefinitely hoping it would be worth my while. And it was. You walk into a small waiting area to be seated, and then they take you to your table and. you enter this humongous dining space. It's so huge. I think it would comfortably seat around 200+ people. With that said, however, a circular table for four can get a little hard pushed for space with all of the dishes etc. They have a good extensive menu, attentive service and while a teeny bit overpriced, it's worth it overall. One thing I didn't LOVE was the fact there was barely a trace of alcohol in my Strawberry Daiquiri. The flavour was great, but if I got stopped by the police on the way home, I'd have been totally under the radar. The only other negative is that it was hard to watch the poor live fish in such small tanks. They can hardly move around and it looked kind of cruel. All of the positives are the ample parking, good service, great food and they finish the night by giving you a delicious little dark orange chocolate if you feel like something sweet. Would I recommend it here? I give it a resounding Yes!

I know, I know, don't judge a book by its cover. I come here pretty often for Yum Cha and I usually enjoy my time here. They offer majority of your traditional dim sums and carts frequently pass by (this can depend on where you're sitting though). This place offers relatively good food, it's nothing extraordinary that you would remember- but its definitely enjoyable and satisfactory. I've been here for dinner too, but I find their Yum Cha to be better. It's not that their dinner is bad, it's just that it quite standard and average. In a suburb where one can find ample Chinese restaurants, average sometimes just isn't good enough. That said, if you have a large group- then this place could easily accommodate you. It has a large dining area with big round dining tables at the back. Overall I would suggest Imperial Kingdom only if it is local to you, I wouldn't go out of way to eat here- but if I'm in the area, I'm more than happy to.

Why it…read moretook so long isn't a massive mystery - it doesn't look like much, lacks ambiance, and there's a plethora of other places to eat around the area. It was indeed a quiet restaurant we walked into, sound-tracked by Close to You by the Carpenters, which proceeded to play on repeat for the two or so hours we were there (didn't care - great song). There's some interesting sounding dishes, and there's zero explanation of what is on the menu other than the dish name so if you have any allergies prepare to ask lots of questions before you order. We also had to ask for water about four times before it arrived. But who cares about any of that when the food is good? Which it is. Big fans. That turns all the above things into character quirks, not flaws. We will be back soon, and I truly hope the same song is still playing when we do.

They were exceptionally accommodating tonight, as they were solidly booked (which tells you how good they are) yet they found a way to squeeze us in if we went a little early, which was no problem at all. The food is as beautiful as the decor and the service was top notch. I had the Pan Fried Curried Beef Dumplings and the Sweet and Sour Chicken in Batter which were both SO incredibly delicious. Everyone else at the table loved their meal too and we will definitely come back. It can get a little loud, but again, good service, good food and it was a really nice dining experience. I highly recommend it.

DO NOT DINE HERE!!!…read more My family and I have been ordering takeaway from Chois for years. This was our first time dining in. Our booking was confused with another large group and we were placed in the private dining room. The manager Amy began to ABUSE my mother about conversations that occurred over the phone with the other group. My mother was accused of hanging up the phone and disregarding emails. Amy the manager then realised that she had confused us for another group and did not apologise or explain her lack of professionalism. Amy instructed us to move to the main dining room where the rest of the dining staff greeted us with animosity. The food service was fine and we managed to salvage the rest of our evening. The bill arrived and we were charged $39 for WATER($13 per bottle). We specifically requested tap water and the waiters accused us of requesting still. We tried to reason with them but they treated us with the same rudeness that they displayed at the start of our evening. The food was unbelievable expensive and they charged us a $25 fee for brining our own birthday cake. After the water debacle our night was completely ruined. We went there for a birthday celebration and had the most memorable night of our lives FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS.

I'd only been here once before, back in 2016, and thought to try it again. I wish I'd done so…read moreearlier, because it was soooo incredibly good and delicious. Honestly, the food is great. The food takes a little bit of time to come out (even during non peak times), but the actual service is very good and they're attentive and the meals all came out at the same time, which is almost unheard of in many Chinese restaurants (that I've been to). They could definitely stand to freshen up and modernise the decor and repaint the dirty and old shabby looking walls, but overall that's really about the only complaint. Everything we ate, we loved and I'll definitely be coming back again.

The Tea House on Burke is an institution in Camberwell. It has been withstanding the competition…read morefor years now and is a popular destination for local families aching to get some decent Chinese food. The dining space is really large with big tables and a lot of room to fit in enormous banquets. The service is incredibly efficient and whether you are eating in or just getting takeaway the wait staff and kitchen always seem to pump out the food in record time. Favourites include anything to do with Peking duck (I can never say no to Peking duck). I have to admit that while my knowledge of the menu is limited to the duck, but every time I have gone there with someone else they have been impressed with the variety and quality of the cuisine. There is a wine list but I personally prefer jasmine tea and haven't yet sampled this menu.

All the other patrons sounded like regulars and were addressed by name, which shows those who love it here must come back often. The space is *huge* and a touch nicer than many Chinese restaurants around, without being anything fancy or sophisticated. That said, the prices definitely are 'Balwyn prices'. Most mains start at $25 (well above most Chinese places) and those with big appetites may wonder where the bang for their buck is. (Luckily we had an Entertainment book coupon to help.) We had a few entrees - dumplings (which there was disappointingly few of on the otherwise expansive menu), chive pancake and BBQ off-bone ribs. All were excellent quality, and these dishes are actually priced pretty reasonably at around $7 each. For mains we shared a fantastic beef dish, and the 'crispy chicken', which was the only one that let us down. The bone-filled chicken cuts were not the greatest - a little gristly - and the batter on the skin was like a salt-punch to the mouth. A pity, as all the other dishes and the service had us ready to flat-out rave. It's BYO and the corkage was very reasonable - I think we were charged under $4 for two of us. Would be back but probably only if we had another discount as there's just so much good food around the area for an overall more attractive price point.
