Imperial Kingdom is a Classical Chinese Restaurant. So if the service is going to be negative, I…read moreexpect at least some good. The food here is quite solid but needs more flavour and expertise. Quite a loud, noisy ambiance and not the most best place in my book.

Imperial Kingdom is on the corner of Waverley Rd and Blackburn Rd, This building is an eyesore, old…read moreand worn out with faded letters and broken lights- at least it's easy to find. 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.

Enjoyed the service very much with ample supply of Cantonese, Mandarin, Hakka, English speaking waiters, always attentive and refilling tea. Just a nice place to go get some good yum cha at cheap prices with family. Impressed and would go back again just for some cheap food.

Price range is reasonable, place is clean and food is relatively good, but the waiter rushed us by asking whether or not we were done wth our dishes. The salted egg octopus was pretty good.

Above avg pricing for sprngvale. Prawn Dumplings were too salty. But everything else was great!! Don't be ataken by the area. There were quite a lot of Aussie families at the restaurant. Staff are helpful and can get u what u need in a flash despite their hurried appearance.

This has been my go to place in Springvale for years, even though there have been heaps of new…read morerestaurants pop up since the Springvale central revitalisation. I stick with ordering what I'm already familiar with, which is usually either broken rice with grilled pork chop, lemongrass and chilli chicken with rice, or bún bò huê - all so tasty and currently around the $9 mark. As for drinks, you can't go wrong with Vietnamese iced coffee, but they also whip up some mean smoothies. Try avocado or my personal favourite, custard apple! I've always been happy with the flavours, portions, prices and efficient service here. Payment is cash only at the counter, and just in case you forgot to bring some with you, there is an onsite ATM. Happy eating!

I've been here quite a few times with my family before and I can always expect a filling meal that…read moreis packed full of explosive flavors. I don't see how anyone could eat here just by 'passing by'. It's located near Springvale station in a little parking area. You enter a door and go up the stairs to find yourself in an out of fashion restaurant that has a 'dance floor' clearing in the middle with a small stage for wedding receptions (I assume). The food here is large and in your face. Most dishes are spicy and packed full of tangy flavor. Make sure you order the 'Da Pan Ji (big plate chicken)' this is a traditional Xingjiang dish of chicken, potatoes and noodles in a curry-like sauce. My favorite thing about Xiangjiang food is their noodles, handmade, thick, uneven an unlike any other noodle. If you've never experienced the food before, make sure you order something with their noodles. Another infamous dish here (and at all other Xingjiang restaurants), is their lamb skewers. They use a special spice (chose either spicy or not), and serve chunks of tender lamb on metal skewers. This is as famous as dumplings are to Chinese and pasta is to Italian. You MUST order the lamb skewers. Overall I find this place can be a hit and miss with certain menu items. Best to ask the waiter which ones are the most popular/common.

Always hits the spot. The rice is very plain and simple the only ingredients i see and taste in the fried rice are carrots, sultanas, spices and oil. Yummmm! I also love the lamb skewers from here also as you can get them super spicy to your liking. The owners are always at the restaurant and are really friendly. If you're a regular they just know what you want to order. Super helpful and will always have a chat. Prompt staff. Highly recommeded place if you've never tried mongolian food

In terms of the food, the pork with orange sauce was delicious, rice and sweet. The pork wasn't over cooked either. We also had the combination noodles. I've been to enough Chinese restaurants to know that you can't really stuff this up and they did a good job. It's also a dish that you can necessarily make dynamic but, Redwood provided a great dish with a good presentation and a great amount of meat including large prawns.

If you're deciding on a drink, try their "custard apple" smoothie - I put inverted commas because it's actually soursop, not custard apple - many Vietnamese restaurants get this wrong since these 2 fruits look similar.
