The sweet and sour pork was good. The special fried rice was excellent. The service and waiting time was very good. I ordered the Mongolian beef but didn't like it much. Just personal taste.

After spending a few days in Tasmania, I have been searching for some Chinese food. Awesome food, big portions at a great price. Cheaper than the brunch that I had. We had the honey chicken and black bean beef. Both were done really well. Freshly made right in front of you. It is a takeaway place, so food was served in containers, but that adds to the unsophisticated charm of the place.

Good quality food. We had Chicken & cashews, garlic prawns and satay chicken. The chicken was sliced breast meat and plenty of it while the prawns were tasty and fresh. Well priced and worth a visit.

Cheap and cheerful. Delightful snacks and best fried rice ever. The sweet and sour pork was just beautiful.

The best Satay prawns ever. Nice and spicy. (Medium) Very generous with the king prawns. Mongolian beef was mild but delicious. Special fried rice was loaded with extras. Will be back.

Went there every week. We had honey chicken, wonton soup and fried egg noodles this time. The portion of food is big and the price is very reasonable. They are all very tasty. I tried the sweet and sour pork and fried rice before. They were also amazing. The highlight, though, is the sweet and sour pork! I’ll definitely be going back again and again. Highly recommend!!
