Shanghai Street

They keep posters on the window, saying the lobsters are 68 aud each, 600g. When we were ordering, the waiter said they were 98 each now, 800g; while other stores sell at 86-89. I said on the poster, the price was different. He said that was outdated and he forgot to remove it. 3 days later, the poster is still on the window. Are not they cheating or misleading? The taste was ok. We ordered another dish: water spinach. The taste was not good as they put in too many spices. Maybe it’s just not my style. We found lots of different WEEDS in the dish. I showed them to the waiter, he just said the vegetables were not washed well. And that’s all. He did not change a new dish, he either didn’t offer us a discount for the dish with weeds. I don’t think I would go there again.

They open at 5pm and we came before 5pm and they're very welcoming us. They allowed us to came in and sit first even before they ready. We ordered lobster with noodle, pipih with chinese donut and stir fry chinese broccoli and they were absolutely superb. All the food are very fresh and delicious. The restaurant is not that big though. Very recommended for fresh seafood.

I have just had my Christmas Eve dinner with my family there. Wonderful place! Fresh seafood and reasonable price. Highly recommend spring onions and ginger lobster with noodles. That’s the must try. Xo sauce Pipi is excellent too, you must order extra Chinese donuts, that is the soul of this dish. We also ordered the other 7 dishes and they are all fresh and tasty. One of the best cantonese seafood restaurants. Do not miss it.

This place re-opened as Chinese restaurant specialising in fresh seafood! The venue is quite small and cramped, and the front is filled with tanks full of love seafood. You can choose which seafoods you want from the tank and how you want them cooked. Highly recommend their live snow crab and live lobster - we got the crab cooked in salt and pepper style and lobster with ginger and scallion with noodles. Both were super delicious! We also got a live fish steamed which was incredible. Their XO pipis with Chinese doughnuts are also a must too (very similar to Ling Nan). Service is super quick and no-fuss. Definitely come with a big group so you can try more dishes!

Have been hanging out for a decent chilli mud crab for a few years now and after snooping around Chinatown for a couple of hours we found this absolute gem ! Apart from the best price in town the chilli sauce / gravy was to die for ! Great value in this busy small restaurant - only other dish we had was a Singapore noodle dish which was on the small size and less value. Asked to leave as soon as we had the last mouthful but this was expected as many others were waiting to get in ...byo is also a bonus. We had a lovely guy serving us but boss lady not overly friendly (but usually the norm). Will be back for another great feed of fresh seafood which is the speciality of this place - heaps of live seafood in the tanks out front to choose from. Revisited a few weeks later and were not disappointed! Same meal - Singapore chilli crab and a separate dish of noodles - everything tasted better than our first visit ! Word of caution - make sure you view them weighing your fresh seafood - they also round up to nearest 100g then round up again when converting to pounds ....but in the case of mud crab current price was $29.95 per pound and is the best price to be found anywhere in CBD so still great value !

We just went to dine in with 5 people late at night, however only 3 of us were eating. We assumed this was fine as no on said anything. They kept trying to push us to order more even though we constantly told them we did not want to. After we clarified again that we were not going to order any more they said that the minimum was $20 per head. No one had told us this at the start or when we sat down and there were no signs or anything at the restaurant. They then tried to say it was on the menu, all the waiters tried to find it on the menu and it wasn't there. Then when we got up to pay, the boss at the cashier was angry and said the waiter that served us had to pay the difference out of her pay. How cruel! If you are trying to charge a minimum per head this has to be written on your front door or on the menu. It wasn't mentioned to us once, and the lady thought we couldn't understand Chinese and was talking bad about us to the wait staff. We feel sorry for the waiter that served us as the boss was yelling at her and she's probably already getting paid below minimum wage. Extremely bad service and we can't believe we experienced this! Justice for the wait staff as the boss is obviously a manipulative and treats her staff with absolutely no respect.
