This is the third time I've been to this place. I'd like to say I tried something new but I can't go past the Gungpow (sic) Chicken. We also had the chilli oil dumplings. Both were delicious and I would definitely go back. The service was OK, efficient but stern. The dumplings arrived before the drinks and the chicken before the rice ( 5 minutes). Also it was a cold night and sitting near the front door wasn't great. The price was reasonable. A glass of wine, a lemonade, dumplings, chicken and rice was $40. Worth a visit.
My husband and i have been eating regularly at the Post Deng Cafe since it was the Post Mao Cafe a little further up the street. It's a truly wonderful place, and the food is glorious. In particular, the shredded fillet steak, crossback lamb ribs, and triple-cooked pork hock have me writhing in my seat with pleasure every time we order one of them for dinner. (Can't have more than one of the three on the table without a large group, though, it's a LOT of food.)
If you just look at the surface, they don't look very professional, but they clearly care about what they're doing, and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable, much more towards friendly than formal. It's truly the only place i've ever been able to truly relax while eating out. They've taken excellent care of us every time we've been there, and we'll be regulars there as long as they exist, hopefully for many delicious years to come.
What a great little find. We ate at Post Deng on a Saturday night, and while it was predictably busy the food was delicious and excellent value for money. Yes, the service was a little rushed, but friendly and our banquet was memorable.
Terrific value restaurant in the heart of Chinatown. The $14.50 special lunchtime set menu is great. The service can feel rushed, but the staff always find time for a smile.
