I must say and put this out there, we had tea at Bens they got order mixed up, the calamari etc were hard and we couldn’t eat any of meal, complained to staff, bought another 4 prawns in soup and was still hard, the service was poor. Will never go there again. Not nice at all. Would not recommend this place at all!! There was 3 off us. Was charged $76 and extra $8.20 for extra prawns !!!

Approximate cost: $86.2

Also the prawns were hard. The staff were hard to understand, this is why they got our dinner orders. Mixed up. There were 3 of us and only 2 meals were served, so they had to go and fill the 3rd order which took more time. Was a long wait. (:

Bad service when owner is not around. Beware of the Vietnamese guy with thick glasses which handles the karaoke - he said to us 'whatever' how arrogant is that?!!! He forgot to put the order thru, letting us wait 45 mins then charging us afterwards ! And they said we have to wait for another 40 mins! Food was good but They don't speak proper English and they don't understand the orders too that's why they give wrong orders 2 customers...

Approximate cost: $16

Went for dinner on a Wed night, we decided to book just in case and was probably a good idea as it was fairly busy for a weeknight.

My partner had a chili beef soup and I had vegetables with noodles and spring rolls. Food was really lovely, can't fault it. Our orders were taken promptly and food came out quick. Service was to be expected, and I would go back there again. They also offer massive round tables for larger groups.

Approximate cost: $12

Yeah, I think they do the karaoke on Fri and Sat nights :)

Went here for a work christmas party one year. It was ok. Nothing to rave about. The food was nice. We all ordered the mixed banquet and I am not sure that there was enough to go around. pretty standard looking chinese restaurant with the fish tanks around the place. large round tables with a lazy susan in the middle. price is reasonable. probably wouldn't go back if I really felt like chinese food though.

This is a really good Chinese restaurant and I have been here a couple of times. It's not very classy but its a good atmosphere with friendly service and good food. On certain nights they also have karaoke which is lots of fun.

The food is yummy but both dine-in and takeaway take FOREVER. The kareoke on the weekend is fun as though...so check that out and have a few drinks at their bar!

Approximate cost: $15

I don't know why people rave about this place. It just has nothing going for it? The food is OK but there are better (and cheaper) places to eat in West End. The service certainly doesn't make up for it either. I've been here a few times (only when invited by others) but I would never eat here by choice.

Only tried them once, so should probably give them another go. just in case they were having an off night.

It was a very long wait for a take away order (+45 minutes) Then they got the order wrong. Due to food allergies I had to throw it out. A disappointing experience.

Approximate cost: $14
