Perched upon a small hill on North East Road at the intersection of Grand Junction, the location is perfect and you always notice the restaurant from either side of the road as you drive past. Inside is furnished very nice, with lots of large tables for groups, benches and dark wooden tones. The food is a variety of different Asian flavours with stir fry's, curries, entrees, some Indian influences and noodle bowl dishes. They also have a lunch menu which is really cheap and tastes amazing! I honestly don't go here that often, even though it is close to home. But I don't really eat Asian in restaurant, I usually get it takeaway. But now that I am writing this it's getting me in the mood for curry puffs and Thai basil chicken..

I was initially introduced to Orientai by a friend who loved their takeaway food, and for takeaway…read moreAsian - it's in another league in my opinion. After deciding to eat in for dinner one time, I wasn't disappointed in the food served in the restaurant either. At lunch time they offer noodle specials which are good value and quite decent serves (you sit on a long communal table). The only slight drawbacks I have is that my friend LOVED a noodle dish, and we went there for dinner, and couldn't get served that same noodle dish in the restaurant. It's just not allowed apparently, which I find a bit silly. She was willing to pay more as well! Also, mixed reports around the service which at times can be overwhelming, and other times underwhelming. Not withstanding these points, the food is really delicious and fresh. My pick for tasty lunches, delicious dinners and takeaway that's a cut above the rest in this area.

We drive past here all the time, but never noticed it open. So we thought we would check it out!…read more Service: We walked in and were offered water upon seating (great for a 39°day!). We were offered drinks immediately. Menus were brought put soon after. Throughout eating, the lady asked us if everything was ok. We visited at 12 noon - bit Google said it opened at 11am but they did seem to be just opening up not really ready for customers. Very polite service though. Drinks menu: Soft drink, alcohol, water, traditional-ish tea and coffee is available. I asked for the green tea (cold) but they didn't have this on the day we visited. I ordered a raspberry and lemonade instead and it came out to the table in a masonry jar - very chic. Food menu: Food menu was average to good. The mixed entree comes with 1 of each in the entree menu and for $10, this is was a good starter to get an idea of the entree menu. Noodles and rice dishes seem very good. Desserts: We didn't have any but there was a menu for them, but it had N/A on some of them. Maybe they've just opened.. Food quality: The entree starter had a 'golden bag', satay, fishcake, vegetarian spring roll and samosa. Satay was the only item which seemed inhouse made. I also got the drunken noodles and hubby got the pad thai. Both were enjoyable - except I'm not sure if all the vegetables were cut in-house as I had some strange crinkle cut carrots. Overall: The menu has loads of mains but only 7 or so entrees. If they cut a few of the mains out, they could concerntrate on the entrees and making them better/in-house. I have an allergy to beans and when mentioned, they took note if it and ensured no beans or bean sprouts were in the dish - props for that!! I would come back to try other mains and perhaps have the spring rolls or satay for entree instead.

Well, the entree came out and 16 minutes later the soups for the other two people.

So I guess, food is tasty, but the service is such we will think twice about coming back.

Willing to cater for large groups (I'd recommend booking for groups larger than 10) or small, they offer traditional Chinese, Vietnamese and Thai food as well as Australianised favourites from the previous restaurant's menu (like lemon chicken). Ideal for native speakers/readers of various Asian languages or students learning languages, as the menu is offered in several translations (including English). Take away options are the same as the dine in menu and similarly priced. The food is of good quality, the service adequate (they do provide better table service if you book beforehand, as they don't have a large staff normally). It is tucked away, but parking is easy, with an overflow parking option lower if necessary.

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.
