What customers say?

“ Strange entrance walking straight into restaurant from the lift. Fried rice with moss and pine nuts was excellent despite strange green clumpy appearance. Wok hei, tasty, pine nut adds texture. Sauteed spicy vegetarian chicken was crispy, spicy, fragrant with mala. Firm meaty texture too. Red bean paste pancake was crispy, mildly sweet with lots of red bean. Much thicker than the menu image. Bittergourd had a nice firm texture and wasn't overly bitter. Eggplant was tasty but texture wasn't as crispy as other Sichuan places. Shanghai fried noodles has the typical Shanghai noodle texture and flavour. $136 total including qipu tea. Try next the hot and sour soup, seven sauce noodles in summer. Chef recommended dishes line sweet and sour pork. Rice and noodle dishes looked like good value for $15.80. ”

“ The entrance is a Hidden elevator next to Machi Machi. Entering your welcomed with a cosy restaurant and excited staff to get you seated. We were sat down at a booth and flagged down the service worker to order food. My group regularly eat meat, however, the vegetarian dishes were honestly delicious and portioned well for 6 people. Ordered Peking duck, peppered beef and other dishes with a solid amount of rice. Though you can tell it is imitation meat, all made you morish and want to go back for more. Was genuinely surprised with the bill as we were expecting shock from it, however, was very happy with the outcome! Highly recommend bring friends and family to enjoy a great meal in a cozy environment and atmosphere. Keen to bring the group back again! ”
