If the dumplings were amazing you could put up with the horrendous service and filthy surrounds, however, sadly the dumplings taste like they are from the frozen food isle at the local Asian supermarket. Absolutely nothing special about this place, we were seated and ignored for over 45 minutes. When the order was taken and the food arrived, the dumplings were soggy and lifeless. CASH ONLY ?- they don't deserve a cent!

I really like this place, you could easily walk right past it, but the fact that it is tucked away is part of its charm. Ballarat has needed a place like this. A cosy little bar with really nice, expensive, but excellent quality pizza and drinks. Decor is beautiful and downstairs is a lovely open fire. Well worth a visit, especially for a first date or romantic night out. I wouldn't have thought it was very appropriate for children, only owing to its size, although I must make it clear that this is MY personal view and not one expressed by the management.

This shop has some beautiful pieces, but there is a mix between reproduction and antique products and you have to be careful that you're not paying antique prices for something new. Their advice regarding restoration was excellent as was their wood cleaning and polish products. Also great range of knobs, hinges and handles, but they are much more expensive than other shops and items can be found at more than 30-50% less elsewhere.
