Had heard good things about this restaurant and so a group of us went there. Unfortunately it's not a great location for groups as we were really quite squeezed in a small table among other tables. Food prices were good - cheap even - but quality/taste was just like pretty much any Chinese restaurant. Service was friendly but it was hard to get past the squeeziness and it wasn't well cooled either. Wouldn't rush back - but this place has been here for years and years so maybe we just had a bad day...
As visitors to Adelaide, we got a takeaway meal from here as it was close to where we were staying.
Our order was Boneless Lemon Chicken, Mongolian Lamb and special fried rice. The chicken was very dry and lemon sauce (packed separately) did not taste of lemon. The lamb was very sinewy and chewy. Fried rice had a few prawns in it. I don't eat prawns, but hubby said they were disgusting and threw them out.
Prices were average, but quality is poor. I would not waste my money here.
A restaurant which was once really good years ago, but these days its a little bit disappointing. Menu range is solid, service is a bit average and so is the decor.
Satay prawns that come out battered, and covered with a satay sauce is wrong in my book, but at least they get 10 points for trying.
They crafted a carrot into a fish, which was an interesting feature of the mains we order, sadly i remembered that carved carrot fish rather than the food.
I wont be back, better Asian dining to be found within or near the area.
