Returned to this one finally.
It's still cooking really good authentic China style food.
Definitely worth a shot.

Looks like an authentic place and sounds very authentic, but the food is a little too lacking for me to consider it to be truly authentic. I'm sure the chefs are Chinese, but it might be the ingredients they use that just doesn't have the same taste as the stuff you can get in China.
However, don't let that stop you coz the food is actually quite good. I like all the different plates they use.
Some like it and some don't. I guess it's down to personal taste.

China restaurant to the max.
China food is what is offered
China staff speaking China accented Engrish
China, China, China.

It is decent authentic China food though, so not bad. Just it's a bit oily. But if you're looking for that special China take on food, then this one's the go.

the food is spicy and it might be suitable for people who dont enjoy spicy food. If you are a fan of spicy food, especially sze chuan cuisine, this is the place you should go! the pork intestine is awesome, but some people might find it smelly. service was abit slow especially during peak period eg 7pm

Approximate cost: $20

For me, the whole experience was ruined by how rude and disrespectful they were to me and my friends, and for that reason I'll never go back there.
They buggered up our order, 15 mins after the first mains were brought out we were still waiting for the rest, then when they came out they got the order wrong so by the time the right mains came out there was almost 30 mins between the first mains and the last. Also, the staff serving the food were obviously quite annoyed and they were rude to us.
When I asked for a discount, the manager and the waitress were talking about us in chinese right in front of us, apparently blaming us for the mistake, then I was told no discount because it was our fault for not ordering clearly enough. I said I wrote down the order on my phone for them to read and read it out to them, then they said it was unclear because two separate people said what we wanted... Thank god all six ppl at our table didn't order separately or we would have been waiting for our food forever.
When I asked for the check I pretty much insisted that we should get a discount because of the long delay on the mains, and because it was so rude of them to blame us for their mistake, and they reluctantly gave us 10% discount. As they gave me the check, the manager said next time not to write the order down on the phone because some phone screens are too small, so he pretty much blamed it on me again. This is despite the fact that my phone screen is HUGE (galaxy S3) and the last order to come out was ordered verbally by my friend, but by then I couldn't be bothered arguing with them anymore.
All they had to do was say "sorry for the mix up, but i've given you discount and we hope you still enjoyed your meal", but by failing to take responsibility for their mistake and blaming it on me and my friends they made a terrible impression, and I won't be going back again.

Approximate cost: $18
