I’ve been coming here for years. By any definition, what they sell is good old-fashioned comfort food. It’s one of those places you wish will never change. You find comfort in the familiar. The food is always good. The people are always friendly. I’m yet to have a bad meal here ever. I always order the mapo tofu, which is definitely the best in all of Melbourne, maybe all of Australia.

I have visited this restaurant 4 times now. The food is delicious and reminds me of home. Black pepper beef is always tender with generous amounts of meat. Sweet and sour pork is always crispy and the sauce is just right. We also love to get the dumplings from here, the seasoning for the meat inside is very nice. The food never takes too long and the owners are always friendly.

Let me start this off, I don't like the smell of dumplings so I don't eat them. My friends were insistent about coming to get food with them here. We get there, no smell or anything, we got 3 plates, 1 pork pan fried dumpling, 1 steamed beef and 1 steamed chicken and my god were they nice. I enjoyed them so much, came out very quick, very hot and the staff were so friendly. The pan fried pork were amazing, you have to try them

The shop doesn't look like much from the outside but you'll find it serves some pretty good dumplings. It does get busy during lunch but it's worth the wait if your craving some dumps! The noodle and rice dishes are also pretty tasty and the serving sizes are generous, we ended up taking a doggy bag home as we couldn't finish it all. Service is friendly though a bit slow.
