Really enjoyed the opportunity to be treated in the private dining room. The fitout is spectacular and the feature wall in the private space is exquisite. The food was great too, thank you. The duck rolls, kung pao chicken, wagyu beef and tofu soup were my favourites. Thank you Sonny and Vivian, wishing you and your staff all the best.
We have eaten at this restaurant on several occasions and we have always been delighted. The food is beautifully prepared and the service is friendly and efficient. All the dishes that we have tried have been delicious but stand outs are the dry chilli beef, the duck floss cones, the beans in XO sauce and the drunken chicken. Cinnabar takes time honored Chinese dishes and lifts them out of the ordinary. A good example is the pineapple sweet and sour pork which is served in half a pineapple and tastes absolutely delicious. It is a pleasure to sit in this elegant beautifully decorated space and enjoy modern, fresh flavours created by master chefs from Hong Kong. We are really excited to have this new addition on the foreshore!
Not just the same old chinese food in a fancy place. The food was special. Handmade pancakes and noodles make such a difference. The wagyu beef was probably the best tasting beef I've ever put in my mouth. The sauces compliment and not drown out. Really good experience. Highly recommend.
Each dish was delicious, decent wine list and the staff were lovely.
The best combination of Chinese flavour and the modern catering I have ever seen so far.
My second visit and it was fabulous. I will certainly be going back again. Especially loved the crispy eggplant.
Great atmosphere and service. Awesome location. Easily the best Chinese in Canberra!
The Chinese hamburgers are the best!! Accompanied by duck with beer sauce
Dinned at Cinnabar for dinner. It was incredible! Beautiful fit out, lovely and cool, exquisite and interesting decorations/ artifacts, and most of all Wonderful food ! It was fresh, clean, very lean tender meat. The duck rolls were "to die for". Not too much batter at all. The sweet and sour pork came in a calved out pineapple (beautiful presentation on all means) the sauces were sharp and were not sickly sweet!
I believe this was the nicest Chinese I've had!
Food was extremely fresh and came in such good time.
Downside was - The restaurant was really lacking in customer service for location, standard and price. Was under impression that it was fine dinning. But understand they are still training and finding their feet.
Am looking forward to revisiting again soon! Recommended!
Good luck!
Loved the place and food was delicious. Although duck rolls were a bit too oily but the lamb chops were finger licking good. A bit pricey, otherwise I would have rated it 5-stars if it were a bit reasonably priced. But definitely worth the fine dinning with a great view!
A lovely lunch here today! Limited menu so each dish can be cooked well. We took recommendations from our waiter in order to try things we don't usually order: House made tofu with spicy pork mince was beautiful and the Chinese Broccoli dish was a very pleasant surprise. Mushroom dumplings and duck pancakes for entrees were also very tasty. Accompanying Jasmine rice was fluffy without a hint of stodge. We're going back!
We went on a night that was really quiet, was literally just myself and partner in the restaurant.. some of the food that was served up wasn’t very hot.. but still very tasty. I do think the price doesn’t reflect the quality or quantity of the food though.. would probably go back to try again 😊
Looking for a place to eat on a Sunday we came upon this gem. What a great find. Asian fusion food. All the dishes prepared with care, presented and served.
Excellent, attentive service, great ambience, one of our most memorable eating experiences.
We will return.
Went for a belated anniversary dinner. The banquet for two was absolutely delicious. The wait staff were friendly and prompt. The restaurant also listened when we wanted a break between servings so we could have time to have a drink and a chat.
Food was good. Well as a Singaporean, I'm pampered with whole lot of Chinese food in Singapore.
My favorite dish is the homemade noodles. Tat bit spicy and very tasty.
Oh since it's mooncake festival, we got one for free.
