So many restaurants to choose in Chinatown but so glad we chose Dragon Boat! A very comfortable…read morerestaurant with a good wine selection and menu including live seafood choices. Lots of choices made it hard to choose so we tried a few appetisers and mains. The service was very good and staff friendly. The food came quickly and everything was delicious. Definitely recommend the scallops and the crocodile. Standard choice of Asian desserts. Plenty of seating for couples, small or large groups. There are a few steps at the entry and restrooms are upstairs so not suitable for disabled access. All credit cards accepted including American Express. Highly recommended.

Exelent service! The place is quite elegant and very clean. If i'd live in Melbourne i'd come to eat there often.

I've lost count of how many times we've been here and have been meaning to post a review on Yelp for a long time... And here I am finally! I'll get to it- Try the pan fried vegetarian dumplings, Thai fried rice, and the Chinese broccoli in garlic sauce- all incredible (like the rest of the menu, I'm sure). The owners are lovely people and are always happy to accommodate our vegetarian diet. They have made vegetarian Ma-po tofu for us before- also super delish. They make their dumplings daily and you can see them being made when you walk past on Victoria Street. I've posted photos of the take-out menu I have at home but I'll post photos of the food next time I'm there... Which will be soon I hope!!
