This place is 'legit'. Always packed with Chinese customers. Probably the most 'authentic' Chinese experience in Brisbane!
Meals can be hit and miss, but there are a few gems. The prices are good, the menu is huge and authentic, and the portions are generally huge!
It's important to order a Tsing Tao with your meal, they only come in the proper size!
I certainly recommend a visit if you want a true Chinese experience, but I warn that first impression may be unpredictable :)
Sadly, a new nightclub opened beneath the restaurant, and if you visit later at night, all you can hear is the thumping techno from the nightclub, which is NOT how I want to enjoy my meal.
If you don't like chopstix arcade, don't visit China!
It's great for big groups, it's byo (wine), food is nice and cheap. The duck and the pork ribs are great! Decor is a little strange and the service can be hit and miss. But highly recommend. This is always our go to place for big groups and a good night out.
This place has been around forever and has undergone several small transformations over the years. I feel it is a fair representation of a typical HK style diner - plus Karaoke bar. It seems to have a regular public bar for you to get drinks at (seems the only option is beer); although, in all the years I have been going there I never saw it in operation.
I always had a decent meal here - and prices were never exorbitant. I really like their salt n pepper calamari (don't get the bread crumb calamari rings!!), their jellyfish dishes and their pork stewed with taro.
Verdict: Great place for a casual meal. HK people will like this one.
Cyber City is my jam. Many a birthday or significant life achievement of my so called adult life has been celebrated here and I suspect this will continue for some years to come. Also great if you've had a few and you're really hankering for a Chinese fix and looking to drop some stupid dollars on various claw machines at 1am.
This place is what it is. It isn't fancy. The service leaves a lot to be desired and is about as consistent as the estimated arrival time on a Tiger Air flight. The food is pretty obviously packed with MSG but consistently pretty great (and not so coincidentally a bit craving-inducing). It's also BYO friendly, basically bottle-shop adjacent and they serve these amazing giant beers. It has claw machines, arcade games, pool tables and karaoke rooms. It's also never overly packed but has still managed to stay in business since 2002 (I assume?). Basically it's home. Plus I've actually won stuff on those claw machines, so if you're willing to drop half your paycheque on a bootleg hello kitty plushie holding an ice cream cone then this the place to chase that dream. A++ will dine again.
Cyber City serves up a large variety of Chinese dishes, we ordered the beef w Peking sauce and also BBQ Pork w Rice. The food was super tasty and the meat was nice and tender. Will be back for sure.
I came here with my friends to gobble down some Chinese food to protect our liver before our gay big night out at the Mega Beat. With an odd retro atmosphere and game containers, we had some decent Chinese dishes like deep fried beef with chilli sauce, fried rice, steam greens and deep fried calamaris. My friend said that this place always has the spaces for dining and chilling out before the party.
Slick Chef Extraordinaire. Gangster Of Food.

What can I say? Cyber city has consistently been one of my favorite places for awesome chinese/fusion food and cheap beer! Ive been coming here for years and never leave disappointed. Keep up the good work legends!
Coming in here is really not about the food, but is all about the memory. well of course since 2002...they never change a bit and is always a good place to catch up with a bunch of friends after a long night in the valley.
Cyber City is one of the successful Hong Kong Style Cafe in Brisbane. Strictly speaking, it's success is well over than those Hong Kong cafes running in Sunnybank area. It is not only running as a restaurant but also providing multi-entertainment facility such as Karaoke, Pin-ball machine and Pool tables games. No wonder it can be there over 13 years.
Cheap, BYO, nasty in a good way. As long as you know what you are getting into, 2002 Cyber City is a relatively consistent winner offering something a little different to the Brisbane food scene. Essentially it is a grunge-y Fortitude Valley adjacent asian eatery - with the twist of actually having some really decent food.
Figure out what is good, great with a large group (book first), BYO like crazy. Better karaoke elsewhere though.
