Tried this place for the first time last night and it was the best chinese I have ever tasted. There, I called it. Best Chinese take away in Brisbane. They ticked every box. You know how some places do some things well but fall short on other things, not this place!

Firstly, we phoned in our order and was told it would take 10 minutes. So fast, especially for how much we ordered (3 dishes and a large fried rice). We turned up exactly 10 minutes after and were greeted by a lovely lady and our food was already waiting. They even gave us a free bag of prawn chips!

Yes, those things are fairly standard at most local chinese takeaways (you'd be surprised how many aren't like that though) but when we got home, everything we ordered tasted amazing. I'm so used to the bland chinese food you get sometimes but all of the dishes were so full of flavour. I was actually a little bit surprised considering how quick the food came out.

One thing to note, I love salty food. If you're turned off by things with high sodium, I predict that you probably wouldn't like this place. That's not to say that all the food was really salty, I'm just saying the foods that typically have a bit of salt was enhanced if that makes sense.

This place really reminds me of the old school chinese we used to get growing up :)

Was near the area around carindale the other day and craving for some Chinese takeaways. Stop by this little suburban shop and we ordered the honey chicken, spare ribs in Peking sauce, fried rice and spring rolls.... man the honey chicken is delicious, best we had in Brisbane. The fried rice goes perfectly with the chicken. The spare ribs with Peking sauce is average. Spring rolls are fresh and crispy. Only disappointment is we don't live in this area, definitely will come again if in the area. Will post some photos up later!

Good simple chinese. I haven't had a bad meal from Uncle Sam's yet. It's not amazing, or ground breaking, but it's been consistently good enough for me to keep returning.
