Fast and affordable there is a reason that students in the city adore this Chinese institution of food that reminds you of Northern China and Sichuan cuisine.
Take away is also very good as well with deliveries going out regularly the dishes you order rarely arrive unsatisfying.
The restaurant itself does not turn any heads compared to their newer site in Carlton you would think this site is not any good from the look of it, but you would be gravely mistaken. Definitely worth a try!
Favourite dishes of the night Guo Bao Rou (Twice fried pork slices in sweet sauce) and the pork intestine were delicious and came out so fresh and hot.

Awesome value, and delicious Chinese style bbq! Made me feel like I was back in China. The first floor is for hotpot while the basement level is for bbq. Our favourites were the chicken skin and beef skewers.

Not much too look at and hard to find with superb food and home made juices.
I had spiced duck and plum juice and it was one of the best meals I have ever had. The menu is innovative modern and varied. There was so much I wanted to try I was lost for choice. This great Melbourne Chinese restaurant is not only inexpensive but also offers great food.

The food and the quantities were good at very affordable prices but the place is dirty and one of the staffs not very professional. The 3 stars are for the food alone.

Great food, fast service. Sliced Bean curd dish was really tasty, beef noodles were delicious, and the watermelon milk ice balls were a great desert. Kids ordered Lemonades and got something that looked like ice tea but tasted more like Sprite.

Dishes were really tasty. Didn't really feel like a restaurant though. Seats in the booths were filthy. Constant takeaway and a production line for the dragon boat festival was not a great dining experience. The pancake lacked flavour. But overall worth a visit.

it’s the best place to try out the northern Chinese hotpot!

waited like 30 min for my take away order, and it was just one quick lunch dish :( they use to be very good in terms of food and customer service a couple of years ago…but it’s just getting worse
