Fluorescent cold lighting, white walls with just a few enlarged pics of dishes, hanging red paper lampshades (?) and pictures of dishes lining the lower half of all the windows bring down the ambiance of the place. It feels like a cafeteria in a museum or a large convenient stores turned into a restaurant. The napkins have a nice red logo although they are way too small, they only give you one and then you have to go up to the counter on your own to get more. They bring your food and don't ever check in with you again to see how your meal tasted or if you want more. The pricing is quite high relative to the ambiance and amount of food served. We ordered the dry chili chicken (D2) and shallow pan fried prawn, pork and chive dumplings. The chicken was served piping hot with plenty of chopped dry red chilis however there wasn't enough garlic or ginger. The bowl was monstrous however it was maybe 35% chicken by volume and the rest was dried chilies and you can only eat so many of those! The dumplings were amazing with slightly crispy bottoms and well seasoned although slightly dense filling. They appear to be handmade and the dipping sauce you have to make yourself with the soy sauce and vinegar on the table With only 1 serving of rice added the bill was $74. Both dishes were tasty however the chicken was not worth the menu price, the dumplings were worth it.

Once we realized our error we offered to take our food to go but the woman at the front said we could stay and eat our food. So kind! Husband got C3 (pork with bamboo shoots and mushrooms) and devoured the whole thing. I did the chicken potstickers and WOW! Delicious. We're so glad we stopped in and recommend others to do so as well!

I looked for something near by my AirBnb, this place popped up as a 5 star, granted with 1 review but it was recent. We drove by, they had street parking right in front. They had free wifi and it was warm inside, a good start. We ordered the tofu, green beans, pork chops, squid. Everything was delicious. Couldn't believe this small town had such wonderful and authentic chinese food.

We both had literally just one bite of every dish and threw the rest in the trash as soon as possible! It was a total waste because the cost was very expensive, but we couldn't eat another bite. It was absolute garbage! I see from the other reviews that the fish and chips got good ratings. I guess we should have tried that instead of the Chinese food but since the workers there were Chinese, we thought the Chinese food would be at least edible. Boy were we wrong!

The scallops were moist on the inside with a light crisp batter on the outside. The snapper was also flaky and moist with that amazing crisp batter. The fries were subpar and unfortunately there was no American style ketchup to go with them. I would have liked a little more salt on the French fries and cut a little thinner as well. It was a little mind boggling that a Chinese restaurant would have such good fish and chips, and I am so glad we decided to put our biases aside to try it!

I had to refill my own tea, go to the counter to order, and wait while dishes arrived one at a time. It's always super busy. With bus loads of Chinese tourists on set meals. The menu is limited, but consistent. If you time it wrong you have to wait for the bus chaos to subside before getting your dinner. Genuine Chinese dishes made well see why we come back.

Stumbled upon this very delightful Chinese takeaway restaurant and almost passed it up, as there was some enthusiastic kareoke going on outside the store. So pleased we tried it! The decor is very simple- there are no tables, only a couple benches. The menu is quite diverse. There is Chinese food, but the popular cuisine here? Fish and chips. They have a number of specials such as $10 gets you 3 fish. In addition, they sell burgers, chickwn tenders, potato wedges... the menu is three pages long. I ordered wonton soup for $10 and my husband had cashew chicken and rice for a bit more than that. The food came packaged in a cardboard box ready to go. The food is fantastic! Fresh ingredients and exceptional flavor. The broth of the wonton soup is particularly delicious. The cashew chicken is also very flavorful! They accept cash and credit cards. The staff is friendly. As a customer, you can watch the food being prepared in the kitchen.
