Rave rave rave!
Absolutely loved my meal here!
It was full of flavour and the atmosphere was awesome. To top it off, all staff were extremely accommodating and friendly!
Big thumbs up to Gin Long Canteen! Will definitely be recommending to absolutely bloody everyone! �
Awesome from start to finish. Had 3 of us so we opted for Set Menu options but didn't have enough people for the banquet, no dramas. We left the ordering in the hands of the staff. Multiple entrees and a fantastic selection of mains to share. Braised beef was amazing, the duck was great but the chicken was the highlight. I cannot fault anything. Loved it.

Walking out of Gin Long Canteen with a big doggie bag of coconut rice and vego curry, I was one chuffed mung bean, because if there is one thing that I love, it's restaurant leftovers. One of my friends and I met here for dinner after work on a Thursday evening, and I was honestly shocked at how busy it was for a North Adelaide eatery. The restaurant is large and bustly, and filled up with hungry punters as early as 6pm. With lots of conversation to catch up on, my gal pal and I ordered Gin Longs cocktails and juices to sip on, while taking our time to peruse the menu. Eventually we decided on some munchies, and everything was exceptional - right down to the rice which was an unexpected standout! The portions were generous enough that there was more than enough for my lunch the next day, too. Gin Long are offering takeout at the moment, so there's no excuses not to try for yourself. I will definitely be grabbing some Uber Eats over the next couple of weeks. In fact I can hardly wait...maybe tonight instead!
Still very crowded and super noisy after 8:30 on Friday night. Most dishes were exceptionally good. We loved the chargrilled trout and vege yellow curry so much that we ordered another serve each. The lamb curry and pomegranate chicken were also good. Personally I didn’t like dragon beef curry as it wasn’t tender enough. Still highly recommended.
This place just has a great vibe, magnificent service from friendly staff, food was exemplary and prices that are affordable. If I could give it 5+ I would, do your self a favour and give it a try.
AMAZING! Favourite dishes: netted spring roll, banh hoi, pomegranate chicken, slow braised thai beef... and OMG you need to try the coconut rice. I would order plates of it.
I been this restaurant in my last visit the food is quite well and main thing u should prefer this restaurant for ambience...I hope my review is helpful
I came here for a work dinner some years ago, don’t really remember it being particularly noticeable, but in town with my lovely wife and 15yo son and we decided to eat here. It was fantastic! Could not fault anything, every dish was great and generous. Drinks were good, service was attentive, pleasant and helpful. Would definitely go back again!
If you are looking for a quiet place for an intimate dinner, go somewhere else. You will probably pay more and have worse food, but this place is noisy (in a good way) and has a vibrant atmosphere, so as a setting for an intimate dinner, it’s probably not great. If on the other hand you are looking for superb food with good value for money, then go here. Might be best to book, just to be safe.
Service was lovely, food came very quickly. Prices were excellent. Eggplant is a must! They substituted meat for vego option, which was great!
Looking for a quick bite, I stumbled across this gem. You would barely know it was there but once inside, the freshness, bustle and open kitchen is very modern, very cool and feels authentically Asian in a way that many restaurants fail. Without having to try too hard, Gin Long succeeds at every turn; the food itself is spot in with some good variety (without offering 50+ options!) Including some fresh takes on classic Asian dishes. A definite must try!!!
Absolutely scrumptious food - the Red Duck Curry was the best I’ve had and the soft shell crab with curry mousse yummo - will go again - the Mary Martini was smooth and well made - sticky banana dessert also delicious - lobster was a little chewy but the sauce was great .
Fantastic!!! They’ve nailed it!!! Great flavours, quality produce, cooked to perfection, super fair portions, good hospitality and sleek venue. If I were local, I would become a regular!
Food is served quickly and the taste is good. Was going to give a five star review until the very last minute when big chunk of big hair was spot on the slow cook pork, then the coconut we order only been open a small hole, not really enough to take out the coconut meat using a spoon that was provided for that purpose. It was a bit pricy as well, spent $87 for two adults and a child.
However, Alex the waiter is the best, simply polite and professional, attend to your needs promptly.
Spacious with a street night vibe. This place makes you feel like you're dining in Asia. The chrysanthemum soda was quite tasty and had a stronger flavour, better than the others. Crispy eggplant was good, but not the crispiest. Ribs were amazing, so addictive, can just dive into a lot of it. So tender and fatty. Braised pork belly was pretty good too, had a thick layer of fats. Prawn dumplings came in a very tasty sauce. Good entre to have. This place gets packed quite regularly. Best to make a booking. Overall, it was a good experience and would go back
Busy place for dinner on a Weds night.
Not cheap, but dishes were tasty. Favourites for us were the green rice squid, pomegranate chicken, lychee duck curry and crispy eggs in XO sauce dishes.
Our waitress was excellent, attentive and knew the menu well.
We had a fantastic dinner at GL Canteen! Make sure you nab a booking because the place fills up quick. Friendly service with a funky, contemporary Asian menu. A particular favourite was the lobster slider - do yourself a favour and order one.
Absolutely beautiful food!All the staff were very friendly and caring!Will be back!
Exceptional service firstly! Service with a smile. Lamb ribs is a MUST, was so smoky and full of flavour, 4 pieces per serve. S&P eggplant was nice but it was 4 massive pieces battered so didnt have enough surface area for flavour. Lastly we ordered the squid salad which was nice but waaay too sweet, had to ask for some extra lemon wedges to dilute it.
Would definitely go back to try again.
2nd visit:
Food was a tad on the sweet side. Still nice but think I’ve everything I wanted to try on the menu and there’s nothing that is very signature that will lure us back in the short term
One of my favourite date night restaurants ever. The netted spring rolls are to die for and their other vegetarian options are full of flavour! Would also recommend the gin long coconut gin cocktail, it is very moreish. We have always had amazing service from Alex and the other workers! Can't wait to eat here again!
