We came to box hill after a long walk at the state park so we were ready for a hearty meal. Not many restaurants were open but we were drawn in to this one as the selection and price looked good. The xiao long baos were decent. Loved the pumpkin pancake even though they didn’t look very good. Veges were crisp and fresh, the beef noodles had a great texture and rich broth. The empty plates were evidence of how good the food was.
We decided to get takeaway at David & Camy as we had heard good things about this place. We had the fried noodles, special fried rice, fried pork dumplings, and the sweet sour and spicy sliced pork on rice.
The fried rice was quite plain, a very average fried rice. The noodles were quite enjoyable though. The sliced pork was flavourful, oily, and quite spicy when you ate a lot, although we really liked it. The pork dumplings were very disappointing, however, as they were dry and had no juice in the them at all. Apart from that, portions are huge and prices are cheap, so no wonder it attracts a lot of customers.
Hadn’t been here for a while..but glad we went back for a late dinner last night. Food was delicious and served quickly.. and is very reasonably priced. The Dumplings are a highlight -and the food selection is good . Staff were friendly and attentive as usual with the restaurant almost full. The decor is a little tired and could do with the refresh, but it’s simple functional and doesn’t detract from the food!
Love the many different dumpling flavours available, they are cooked really nicely and are pretty cheap so can’t complain! It’s super close to me so it’s probably one of the top dumpling places I visit whenever I have cravings 👌🏼
Next Dan Dan noodle place in Melbourne. Great prices and food comes out quick 10char. Dumplings are mad too. Had spicy ones but definitely dan dan is good
Went here recently as we were craving dumplings. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and shown to a table. They didn’t bug as at all to order whilst we were waiting for a friend. Once we had decided what we wanted they were quick to come over to take our order & the food was ready pretty soon after. I got the pork dumplings & the pork buns, whilst my friend got dumplings in chilli sauce. The food was delicious. The dumplings were so fresh & had enough filling in them. I misread the menu & thought the pork buns were bbq pork buns. They were still nice the bun itself was so fluffy. This place is definitely good value for money. If you don’t finish it all they gave us a container to take home. They also accept card for purchases over $30 but they don’t do split bills.
Go to place for quick Chinese. Yes this place is oily and waiters not too attentive, but food is mostly good. Good prices and generous servings. But if you are looking for a clean meal, not the best place to go as they use large amounts of oil in all dishes.
This is my go to dumpling place. I always get my usual pan fried pork dumplings and pork meat ball noodle soup (not many places do this particular dish; i love it!) or the shanghai fried noodle is good too. It's no fancy place but sometimes old rustic places make the best food. It's really personal preference how you like your dumplings fried but I like mine really crisp and crunchy yet juicy inside so without a doubt it hits the spot!
For a long time I refused to return as the customer service used to be appalling but in the last two years or so they have changed and no problems =) Everyone deserves a second chance!
Expected the dumpling menu to be a tad cheaper but still managed to spot this bargain: 15 wontons in soup for $8.80 + free hot tea 😍
Delicious & cheap😄
New management made this restaurant great again. commend the taste of the dumplings and chilli chicken rice. thanks for the great food ladies.
