I had my dinner with my friends here a few times and have enjoyed the experience every time.
Seafood is fresh and delicious. Service always great, and cooked and served in record time.
Very clean place, very friendly staff. Happily recommended.
Lobster in XO sauce was my favourite dish of the night a must try for any seafood lover. Can be expensive depending on size of lobster, but waiter will bring in to you fresh from the tank for approval before cooking and serving.

Approximate cost: $25

This place is awesome! The food is to die for. Its pricey but OMG, so worth it. The seafood is beautiful and fresh and even simple dishes like sweet n sour pork (which my mum got take away for my dad) This place is definately worth a visit, for 2 people it cost 140 dollars but was well worth every cent!

Approximate cost: $25

This is one of my favorite Chinese restaurant in Sydney. It is expensive but worth trying. They provide first class dishes specially their seafood. The services are good but still have room to improve.

I hear the best feedback about the food at this restaurant, thanks it might be time for me to get down to Haymarket and check it out :-)

The best Chinese seafood in town. They do best with seafood, crabs, lobster, steamed fish, prawns or oyster dishes are to die for. They also have other delicious dishes, but what they are famous for is seafood. Although it is pricy, you get what you pay for.

Approximate cost: $Market price for most seafood

One of my favorite places to go. The food served is always delicious and fresh. Unfortunately they don't serve brown rice which I like but they have other nice dishes.
Staff are very friendly and professional.

Just thinking about writing this review made my mouth water because the food was just that good! We enjoyed a family meal here and everyone was highly satisfied with the food. We went one busy Saturday night, so the service was a bit slow- but the food made up for it. We ordered San Chow Bow to begin with followed by some mixed vegetables, chicken dishes, tantalising prawns and fried rice. Their round tables make it really easy to share food- the non messy way! Not too sure how I feel about the live seafood staring at you in their tanks before they are made into your dinner though!

I love their peking duck so much I want to just write 'Peking duck, peking duck, peking duck' and end the review, but I'll get serious.

One of the best Chinese restaurants, at times gets a bit too loud for my liking, but I can live with that. they do variety of food, most of them taste great. You get to 'choose what you want to eat'

no no not just on the menu, you get to get up, go to the water tank, pick and point 'that one' it will be on your plate in a while. you do have to wait a little for that, but seriously it's a 'must' experience. I'd stay of dim sims, you didn't come here to have dim sims. come on!

Looking for fresh seafood but don't want to go out and catch it yourself? Make life easy by heading down to the city and booking a table at Golden Century.

If this restaurant doesn't have the seafood you are looking for then it probably has not been caught yet! They have over 20 tanks of live seafood ranging from oysters, scallops and pipis to fish to crabs to lobster. Just walk up to the tank with the waiter and select the one you want. Within 20 to 30 minutes or less it will be on your table made just the way you want (Chinese style options - such as with ginger and spring onion for crab or lobster, gently steamed with soy sauce and spring onion for fish or black bean for the huge New Zealand oysters that fill a plate!

Even if you are not a fan of seafood, there are many other options of Chicken, Duck, Beef and vegetables, all cooked with the same level of skill to enhance and bring the best flavors out of each ingredient. A favorite of ours is the Crispy skin chicken for non seafood lovers.

The question of quality and value are well answered by how busy this restaurant gets on most nights. It is highly recommended you book ahead to ensure a seat. Understand that many very popular seafood items will run market price which is not determined by the restaurant but by the markets that sell them. If you are after quality, this is the place to go. Put it on your top 10 list of restaurants to try in Sydney!

Approximate cost: $50
