Beautiful food and on two occasions where we had a large group banquet they catered for all individuals with special dietary needs with their own dishes that were equally interesting and delicious compared with the standard dishes - we had meat lovers reeling over how good the tofu was! I think the food is very reasonably priced, wine mark-up was a bit more than usual, service was friendly and very helpful despite difficulties of large groups and a very busy restaurant.
One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Food is divine, atmosphere is great, service is excellent. Highly recommend the Watermelon with shredded duck relish, Pork Belly & The Crispy Rice with banana dumplings. I visit this place whenever I'm in Melbourne. Keep in mind they have share tables, so don't be surprised to have strangers on your table, but tables are long and narrow, so I don't think its a big issue personally.
My colleagues rave this place however when we went I was not overly impressed. The food itself was tasty however it was lukewarm which is dissappointing. This place is not cheap either. What I found was the waiter we had was quite rude. To take advantage of the banquet everyone on the table must do it (understandable) however it was not made clear to us that to get the banquet dessert you had to decide at the beginning of the meal and i thinik the same applied. they would not retrospectively let us have the dessert banquet offer...pretty annoyed about that and the guy was not nice about telling us. The restaurant itself is huge and has dull lighting a funky feel to it. But the music was too loud especially combined with the millions of guests talking there as well....the toilets are almost in darkness which is pretty funny, i wouldn't like to drink too much wine and then try to negotiate them....i'm not a fan.
Tried this place for the first time last week and I was blown away by how good the pork belly tasted. We had the $25/pp express banquet and were very happy with the amount and taste of the foods. The highlight was their very famous pork belly with caramel sauce and black vinegar, just writing about it now makes my mouth water. The pork is so tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. We also had Barramundi watermelon salad whch were very light and refreshing. Service was pretty average but I am not too fussed about service as long as the food is amazing.
Approximate cost: $25
We had a really nice date night here during the week. The interiors are quite lovely and although at first I found the prices of the banquets a little pricey the portion sizes definitely compensated! The lamb ribs where the highlight of my night though I only wished I had saved some room for dessert! Will be back again next time with friends and will be leaving room for dessert!
Me and my Uni friends decided to dinner at Red Spice Road..I had the $65 banquet..The food was amazing.. the Pork belly was the highlight.. it was outstanding ..Oh! also the dessert (passionfruit brûlée) it tasted beautifully .. i cant wait to return..
Oooooh sounds interesting.
For this place, the pork belly is a must order on every trip, however you'll find nearly all their dishes tasty and full of flavour. Service is always exceptionally good. When going as a larger group, book a function room as it's really worth it!
Approximate cost: $30-$35
Service was great, better than most other Chinese restaurants. Their infamous chilli caramel pork belly is definitely a winner. The meat is so tender and the sauce is so good that I had to control myself not to start licking it off the plate.
Dined there last night with a big group of people. We had the banquet and it was AMAZING! Really fresh ingredients used and interesting flavours! The drinks aren't cheap tho - a glass of chardonnay for $10. Service was good - our waiter was continuously filling up our water glasses. Really funky decor - loved it! Will be going back!
Approximate cost: $30
After my wife's company had their Christmas party here, I wanted to try the food as well. She loved it and really hyped it up. However, we went here for my birthday just a month later and unfortunately wasn't that impressed. Yes, the food was quite good, but we felt the service was lacking. We were the only people in there and felt somewhat thrown to the side because we were not in the main dining room. It was good, but not as good as what i was expecting.
Approximate cost: $26
