Dno about the complaints but the service for me was quick and food tasted well.
This is one of the few restaurants that are open till late (I believe 1am) and my friends and I were hungry for a quick feed at 12am.
So many people complaining about the service! I found the service fast, efficient & the waiters super helpful. Been there twice & both times, they helped us use the set menu so it's cheaper. They may seem perfunctory or rude, but go to Chinatown & that's just how they are. You're not going to get simpering here & I'm glad for that. The food is always spot on. Have always left feeling stuffed from good food. Have recommended this place to lots of friends & family. It's already my dad's favourite place to eat.
My wife and I have been having lunch for quite some time. Overall, we are satisfied with quality, price and service. Unfortunately, the vinyl covering of the long bench seats has frayed to such an extent it is irritating the exposed parts of our thighs. This condition has been there for quite some time. I am disappointed the owner has not deem the damage bad enough to warrant a refit. Customers need comfortable seats to enjoy their meals. It is not a problem when wearing long pants although it is an eyesore.
Service is very standard but their kitchen is open till 12.30am which is great
Bbq rice roll was the best I've had it came out fresh and was really tasty
Preserved meat clay hot pot was ok, it was not traditional as the rice was not crispy around the edges and lacked flavor, it also took really long to come out to our table...
I would come back for a late night feed though.
Ginger and shallots is one (if not the only) place in my local area open past midnight. For this reason, it is a go-to-place to satisfy midnight cravings. Overall for the price (not very expensive), the service and the food are quite satisfactory, however I probably wouldn't go there during main meal times when other restaurants are open in Eastwood.
Dishes I would recommend include the preserved egg congee (paired with the deep fried fritters), and the individual rice dishes (gong bao chicken with rice) especially if you are hungry (portion sizes are larger)
If you are ever craving a proper Chinese feed past midnight then look no further.
This restaurant stays open until 2am serving every dish on the menu. The staff are fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese and English. The food comes out quick but does not comprise quality or quantity.
this is the place I go when i don't know what to eat in Eastwood. Their dishes are average (certainly some are above average especially their chicken dishes). The quality of dishes is stable so I won't be like getting something terrible.
The steamed Barramundi was what stole my heart and palate. The medium sized serving exuded freshness, had wholesome bites of tender insides and was daintily decorated with green broccoli and thin slices of ginger. Instinctively we look at the eyes of the fish for the quality of the fish. The sauce was not over whelming but just at the right note. Our appetites were enhanced further by this classic prepared seafood. It played with smell, taste and vision. I placed some fish slices on to the fluffy steamed white rice and it opened my senses further.
Open till late which is quite convenient. Dish is fine. Congee is good. Mostly for midnight choice. I do think good to have such a place near by.
This is the family's go-to Chinese restaurant. And it has never disappointed us before. Very cheap and the service is very quick. You also get complimentary soup at the beginning while you wait for your food to come out. I suggest only going for the mains to go with some rice as these dishes always are quite well done.
