After a few visits ... Food small serve, noodles were cooked well, average taste and definitely not as good as Singapore for an establishment that valued their "hawker" heritage, value for money on certain items and definitely not on weekends, 10% surcharge. Drinks they have beers and your typical South East Asian drinks; soybean milk, etc. Venue large, clean and mostly empty now Service very bad, not interested. No service, just a cashier. You need to return your tray, etc. to the dumping area after you eat ... signs on the table. Would we go back? If I'm desperate for some noodles, soy sauce chicken and crispy pork belly.
Not very enjoyable experience. I found this restaurant as it was hyped by foodies in Instagram, but not worth it. Waiting time for food was very quick however the biggest problem was it was not served hot. I wasn’t sure if we were allowed to return it and get it warmed up, so we just ate it. Flavours are there, but as I said, the food was cold so still not very enjoyable. Ordering is by QR code. After finishing meal, you have the collect your plates and place them on the trolley where they put dirty dishes. 10% surcharge on weekends. Place is clean, but ambiance is not very nice.
I am a chef by profession Asian and Japanese,it Was in my bucket list from long time as COVID hit so couldn't get chance to go there. Today I went there with my family and kids Food taste was good but could be enjoyable if it was served hot or at least warm . This restaurant is just over hyped.sorry I usually don't put negative feedback. But I am very disappointment that food was served cold. Restaurant wasn't even busy as we were there around 3:00 pm .only 2 tables were booked. Sorry but won't come Back.
Came to find out what the hype was about. I've only ordered soya chicken $13.36 includes extra charge for paying by card - it's literally sweet soy sauce on chicken and rice, what was I expecting. Chicken is tender, outside has a very faint hint of soy sauce very colorful though, however, the meat has zero flavour. To sum it up, bland food. Staff is okay, place is clean, but it's not worth it, not coming back, won't recommend.
We tried Hawker Chan’s soya sauce chicken, char siew, soya bean sprouts, and Thai style tofu - and they were all very full of flavours! Loved the soya-seasoned thin noodles that were cooked to perfection. The set up reminded me of a Singaporean food court where you’d come up to the counter to order while trying to find a table at the same time!. So it was more of a self service eatery and it was very busy, but it made the experience more authentically hawker.
I can said I like the Duck, it's very crispy n not too fatty nor salty. I was very disappointed with the dumplings, inside the meats r too dry and not much taste. It's cheap n big portion. We serviced ourself & yet have to paid extra 10% on top of the bill for Saturday to eat in. haha for Sunday will charge extra 15%
Located in the busy Lonsdale Street and they serve Hainan Chicken, noodles, pork and roast duck. The noodles are saucy and tasty. We also ordered bok choy. The food is simple but tasty. They also have lots of seatings to dine in. Very easy to order through the online app.Food: 4/5
I don’t see why this place has so many negative reviews. The quality and quantity of food you get for the price is definitely worth it! 2 dishes were enough for 3 of us. I wouldn’t go expecting to have the best Cantonese food I’ve had at this price point.
The bad reviewers had a bit of a high expectation. The food is really tasty, the one in the photo costs 14 on a Saturday. Portions could be a bit bigger indeed and the 10% weekend surcharge for an empty restaurant feels wrong. I'd be back but never when really hungry. .
Fxck the negative reviews, I had a great time here. Soy chicken and char siu are the best I've had in Melbourne. If only one thing I wish they could improve is to use less plastic utensils. Don't see the point of using a plastic spoon while eating in. Other than that, excellent!
