I live in Randwick and shop near the Coles so I've passed by this place heaps of times. It looked…read moreinteresting and I was craving some egg noodle soup so decided to come here for lunch. There was no chopsticks or silverware on the table when we sat down. The staff was friendly and greeted us with menus and a minute later, came back and asked if we were ready before we even looked at the menu. I will say that the lunch specials are pretty good - $7.95 for an array of dishes and comes with complimentary hot tea - which is rare for Sydney. I ordered the combination noodle soup and that included seafood, barbecue pork and chicken. You can choose either egg or rice noodle. My date ordered the pork spare ribs. My soup came out in about 5-7 minutes with a soup spoon but never got any chopsticks. Asked the waitress for it and got it, but my date's food still wasn't there. It came maybe 3 minutes later, which was a bit annoying. My soup had a lot of stuff in it - meat - pork, chicken and seafood - prawns and squid and a good amount of veggies - mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, chinese greens, but the broth was a bit bland. I had to ask for chili sauce, which made it better. My date's ribs were chewy and he didn't really enjoy it. Overall this place is a bit average - glad we didn't pay too much for the food. I was full but not overly satisfied. Not sure I'd come back.

This place has been around since 1976. I have to admit I have not been to Randwick for years and I…read morehave never notice this place until now. My group and I came here with recommendation from a friend of ours. The owner of the place which we call Uncle was lovely and friendly showed us our table upstairs. The menu was extensive, and while we were busy perusing the menu, a pot of Chinese tea arrived, followed by colourful drinks for the kids. Layers of bright rainbow colours excite all seven children at our table, including two of mine. I found out that kids get extra privilege here, they get free drink and dessert. We didn't have to wait long until the food arrived. Wagyu Beef Rolls with Enoki Mushrooms was a highlight, the beef was tender and perfectly paired with the delicate mushrooms right in the centre of each roll. We also had the Silken Bean Curd with mushrooms, Salt and Pepper Squid, a chicken dish and a pork dish.They were your average tasty Chinese food. Then the waiter came with a big bowl of dessert soup consists of sweet potatoes swimming in a muddy coloured sweet broth. The kids got a bright multicoloured rainbow jelly egg for dessert. All these desserts were served complimentary. Always a good way to end a meal!

They offer takeaway containers for $2-$3 in a variety of options like chicken cashew with rice , chilli beef noodles, sweet sour pork with rice. They aren't the healthiest but when your after something so cheap you got to drop those high standards. They got a deli counter too and offer great wraps and rolls of your choice or the standard pork or chicken rolls which are really good for only $4. When I come here I tend to opt for the pork roll with extra chilli and an egg. Yum yum. Rice paper rolls are another good option here that I like. Available in chicken, prawn or Tofu with plum sauce. They sell juices too but haven't tried those out yet. Next time in Bondi Junction and want to save your money for the Westfield then this place is your new best friend.

Walking into the place, it was huge so that rumour is probably true! They have people walking around in trolleys which is great as you can just pick what you want. The prices are more expensive than the Haymarket yum cha but I think it's worth it. The dumplings are larger than other yum cha places and they only have 3 dumplings in a steamed bamboo holder. The reason for the 3 stars is because the service isn't great. Given the amount of people you would think the service would be better but it's sort of put me off. Until next time I get yum cha cravings!!

We had some takeaway boiled egg curry puffs from another store that we brought in with us and they were cool with us eating these at the table. Big props for being max chill. We hit the beef, pork, prawn and vegetable steamed dumplings and man, I gotta tell ya, pork just steal the day, don't they? I mean I'm as big a prawn fan as the next bloke, but there's just something about pork and the way it's all juicy delicious inside that glutinous little wrapping. It's a happy marriage, one that I want to eat as much of as humanly possible. I'm not an Anzac Parade regular, but this place made The List, that one I keep in my head.

Initially they told me we might need to wait for the dumplings so the main would be served first. No problem. After 15 mins, the dumplings came , and they said the chef made it for us first....oh sure... when we were done with the dumplings, it took ANOTHER 20 mins for the main dish to come. 20 mins !!! We were still hungry when we finished so we ordered some boiled dumplings. MISTAKE - cause it took already 15 mins. Seriously, how difficult is it to boil some dumplings (assuming the dumplings were pre-made). The food was not bad, but the wait was really annoying. Not sure if I would be back....

I became familiar with this Chinese restaurant before I went there. Such is the power of word of…read moremouth. It wasn't a terribly exciting or even positive introduction. And it had absolutely no relationship to the food. It was the stools. The red stools that people sit on. And I got word that they were supremely uncomfortable. I didn't follow up on the critique (made by a friend) and in fact forgot about the restaurant altogether. It wasn't until my partner and I happened to be walking around Darlinghurst around dinner time at a later date that I remembered about the comment (which would surely put a black mark on any restaurant's name). And yet, it was delightful. We were the first ones there - so early in fact that we lingered outside like miscreants while the staff were eating their dinner - and avoided the stools altogether, and instead sat at the two person table further toward the kitchen. We ordered the Beijing Dumplings (lamb and vegetarian), the steamed vegetarian buns, hainan chicken rice and the nyonya chicken and potato curry with two pots of brown rice. Mostly everything was outstanding. The only thing that didn't surpass our expectations wildly was the Hainan chicken rice. The rest was so incredibly good that we've gone back twice since (take-away). The staff were also incredibly accommodating and take note that they have a vegetarian menu as well as a Coeliac one. As for those infamous stools, on our last visit there to pick up our take-away we saw Hugo Weaving sitting on one of them at the far end of the communal table eating his dinner. If it's good enough for Hugo Weaving ..

The fresh prawn rice paper rolls with chilli dipping sauce and Beijing vegetarian dumplings are also staples. The Beef Tenderloin Fillet Fry ($20) is tasty but the Mixed Asian Greens ($10) is uninspiring. The menu is a little pricier than you would find elsewhere and you may find yourself leaving still relatively hungry. But if you order more (like I usually do) or come on a night when you are not incredibly hungry to begin with, then the quality of food should impress you. The restaurant is BYO and also has a coeliac friendly gluten-free menu and options for kids. The only issue I have with this place is the menu layout. I think it would be more successful if the dishes had a bit more description in terms of the sauces rather than just the main ingredient.
