Staff were friendly and welcoming, food was very nice service was efficient. Didn’t have to wait long for food which was of a good quality enjoyed by all. Serving sizes were big enough to feed 3 people easily. All in all a very pleasant experience.
Super cheap and delicious food at this Malaysian venue. We over-ordered significantly but we tried to finish as much as we could.
We ordered:
- Pork and mushroom Dumplings
- Chicken and Sweet Corn Dumplings
- Vegeterian spring rolls
- Satay Chicken skewers
- Pork belly bites
The only thing we did not eat at all (other than a bite) was the pork belly bites. We just weren’t fans - everything else however was so delicious, we left far too full because we just loved it all.
BYO wine was also a bonus. We will definitely be back!
Unfortunately no photo for this one because we ate majority of it before I remembered to get one - that’s how awesome it was!
Located in the busy center at Chinatown city orchids it’s good to a family dinner or just to a date, have plenty of space and separated rooms. The menu have a great variety of choices either for vegetarians. We were a big group who shared a lot of plates and everybody was very satisfied. Good comfort food with efficient service and a friendly staff.
Not bad as the rating score.We didn't tried the dumplings,so no comments.But what we ordered definitely fit the normal level of the restaurants in China with a bit sweeter which should be the regular tastes of shanghai and other cities around.
We will return.
Service - Great
Food - Great.
Value - Good
While reading their menu by the doorway, we were invited in by friendly funny staff. Even for an early dinner (5:30~ish) most tables were occupied.
We were seated straight away with drink orders taken immediately. The drinks (water, lemonades and a wine) arrived within a minute and food order taken as soon as we were ready.
Service was very fast, and ALL staff very polite. Even getting the attention of other staff who were re-setting tables to ask for a drink refill was welcomed and served with a genuine smile.
Food came out promptly, was lovely and servings are generous, though we did have to check on one dish that may have been forgotten to be brought out. It was then delivered straight away (still nice and hot) by the Chef with his apologises.
Food:
Spring Rolls (Chicken) - Nice but the sauce was a bit bland.
Honey Glazed Chicken (with cashew nuts and chips)- Very nice flavour, not overpowering and sticky with honey. No chips were served. (I only remembered it was meant to included chips while doing this review)
Lamb Ribs. A thin crispy exterior encases the tender meat.
Calamari Spicy salt & Chilli - nice batter, tender calamari.
Steamed Rice
Drinks:
A bottle of water provided for us all and replaced when near empty without prompting.
The wine menu could have a few more "by the glass" options but was adequate.
Atmosphere:
The "Aussie radio" type music was not in keeping with the vibe of the restaurant. I would've expected cultural or "elevator" music.
Due to 1 forgotten dish and no chips served with the chicken, I only rate it a 4. The service and quality of food still outweighs these oversights.
This restaurant is absolutely amazing!!! The food is extraordinary. The service is wonderful. Their chicken and corn dumplings were fantastic!!! I left, saying to my sister, that that was one of THE best meals I have had in a long time. Thank-you so much. We will definitely be back in the very near future.
My partner had tried this before and said it was amazing. So I had to come and see what was the fuss about. We came here pretty late considering it opens to midnight most days. We ordered the Orchid Banquet for $48 per person which included, sweet corn and chicken soup, steamed home-made bbq pork buns, San Choi Bao, seasonal mixed vegetables, Peking duck, beef tenderloin and special fried rice. Their was so much food we couldn't finish it all. We had to take away so much of it. But I have to admit for a small little restaurant hidden away on top of China town it is amazing. One of the best Chinese restaurants Ive ever been too. My favourite was definitely the beef tenderloin the flavours was mouth watering and the meat was cooked to perfection as each bite you take it basically melts. Definitely recommend coming here for a nice dinner you will not regret.

Try the dimsums and the spring rolls
The food is delicious.And now have special lunch,it's so cheap!! Just 8$~
The Entree of Dumplings ,Spring Rolls and Satay Chicken are nice ~yummy !
Best lemon chicken, crispy and cooked to perfection. Singapore noodles are to die for. Friendly staff and quick service. Quite little chinese restaurant, open until late. Prices are reasonable as well. Id recommend this quite little place in downtown china town, Melbourne.
All you can eat dumplings on monday was great because of the variety of dumplings they offered.
$20 all you can eat dumplings on a Monday night was a lot of fun. $4.50 beers. Nice music and friendly staff. Sometimes had to wait a little while before more dumplings would be offered. The dumplings were good without being great. Would definitely go again and have recommended to my friends
Food is average. A little bit saltier for me.Location is good which is in China Town. I bought vouchers so the bill is so affordable. It cost us only $45 for three people. The atmosphere is nice. But cooking time is a little bit slow.
