Really delicious Chinese restaurant in circular quay. Not especially fancy, but tasty food. We tried honey prawns (proper big prawns), san choy bow, spring rolls, mongolian lamb, fried rice and more. Staff were extremely nice and efficient. Its a bit expensive, but you've got to expect that in the rocks.
This is a great Chinese restaurant. We like to have a nice family lunch at this place every other weekend. Although it can get a bit crowded every now and then it's totally worth it, because the food is simply delicious and if you don't like waiting you can always make a reservation.
I especially love their shrimp in lobster sauce, which is my favourite there. They cook only with fresh sea food so you don't have to worry about your stomach. Additionally all the staff are very polite and welcoming. They are always there if you need them so you don't have to worry about getting cold food or having to wait a lot for your bill. As for the decoration- it isn't something special, I dare say it's pretty simple, but gives a nice touch to the place. Considering the great view you have from the outdoor seating area the place really doesn't need any decoration or it will be over the top.
Overall the best Chinese restaurant in the area.
It's hard to beat sitting by the water at Circular Quay and looking up from your dinner at the harbour bridge and watching ferries go by. It's a magical location. The food here is also very good. I haven't had a good chinese meal in a while and really enjoyed it. I'll go back.
