Cosy little Chinese restaurant with friendly, attentive service and delicious food. The best prawn toast I have ever tasted! Big portions, basically two meals in one. Wishing this long term family business many blessings, thank you for the food!!

Nostalgic retro basement Aussie Canto-Chinese restaurant in Canberra. This place has been operating since the 1960s and owned by the same family which these days is becoming super rare. The place was packed at 6pm on a cold winter Sunday night. The staff were lovely, efficient and friendly. We ordered Sizzling Mongolian Beef ($28), Chinese BBQ Pork in Plum sauce ($24) and a large fried rice ($13). Despite being so bust the kitchen was pumping out the meals in record time. We didn't wait long for our food and were shocked at the enormous portion sizes! We did our best but didn't come close to finishing. Fried rice - great inclusion of prawns, bbq pork. The BBQ pork in plum sauce was tasty, sweet and had onions and carrots. So much pork! The sizzling Mongolian Beef had so much beef and accompained with onions. Tasty and good char from the hot plate. Cool retro interior and a nice full wall mural of the Great Wall and love the wooden panelling. If you are visiting Canberra for the weekend check this special restaurant out, you won't be disappointed and you will leave 'Happy' with very full stomachs! Street parking near impossible (as we discovered making us late for our reservations) park at the Canberra Centre shopping centre parking and walk across to the mall.

It is indeed a HAPPY place to eat! made my tummy so happy!! 100% authentic Chinese restaurant. I can't believed we just discovered this today as we had lunch with my family! Price wise is very good! The food is very delicious! The serving size is just wow!! They are very generous with their serving! The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I can't wait to go back again. We ordered special fried rice, honey chicken, garlic chicken and beef curry. And friend ice cream+ banana fritter.
