The first Korean restaurant I went when I started work in Sydney 2012. Ever since than I will drop by once a while for a meal or two with my friends and colleagues after work or after booze hour as they open till past midnight. Food is really good missus loves their spicy pork especially, but a year or two back the dishes seems to shrinks. Cutting cost maybe but still we keep on visiting as the atmosphere and ambience is cool and friendly and service is fast and efficient too. Pressing the bell on the side of table for ordering or service. Staff will always repeat your order to final confirm. All the floor staff are Korean, even the manager but simple English is no problem to them. If they can’t answer your questions, they would ask the manager or senior to attend your table so there is nothing to worry bout the orders got wrong. It’s very busy every time and sometimes we have to wait for half an hour + to get a table for 2 only but the place is really good, consider on the fast pace and non-stop customers coming in and out. You wouldn’t regret to dine in here for sure, I’ve been around for 6 years in madang and still can’t get enough of it. Had my pre 40th birthday dinner and drinks last year there too.

Fried Chicken is amazing，under the good skill of frying and delicious sauce～What I ordered is the sweet and spicy flavor. Highly recommended! （I will suggest it as my favorite fried Korean style chicken in city) Spicy seafood soup and noodles are under average restaurant level, which are not bad and not excellent as well. Environment is clean but poor lighting.

Loved this Korean BBQ place. Queue was a bit of a wait despite being a Tuesday night, but it was worth it. The seafood pancake was crispy and had lots of flavour. The meats were marinated and they changed the hot plates regularly. The fried chicken was good, too.

Friendly and efficient service. Venue was very Covid aware which was reassuring. Food was very nice but not outstanding. We had the BBQ option. The Wagyu Beef option was the most expensive option, but it was a little bit tough - it seemed to have a low fat content. Not sure if it was really Wagyu or not? Some options for mixed platters of beef, pork, chicken and seafood together would be a nice addition. Decent value for the price paid.

Nice and authentic Korean restaurant with gas/charcoal grills. You have around 20 different meats to choose from for the grill, partially marinated and partially raw. The waiters are nice, fill up the side dishes on request, and also frequently change the grill plates on which you put the meat on. You also have Korean beer and 2 Soju to choose from as well. Would recommend visiting.

Absolutely fantastic place, we were so happy to find a Chinese restaurant that is both vegan and has plenty of gluten free options for those with intolerances. Mother Chu herself is delightful, very sweet and offers excellent service. We got a variety of dishes and all were top quality in taste and fair serving sizes, but our absolute favourite was the 8 grain desert with rice balls, which had sesame in them! The flavours were so well balanced, it was rich but not heavy, and the texture of the rice was perfect. Good came out within 15 minutes of ordering and I also really appreciated that there was no background music and it was easy to talk to one another.

This was highly recommended by someone, and we wanted to try how a complete vegetarian Chinese restaurant will taste like ! And it was as really great! There were lots of options and had added pictures to make your choice as a lot of ingredients were unknown and a lot of dishes we tried for the first time ! We had a great time picking and choosing and everything tasted great.. couldn’t really pick up on anything negative. Service however faltered.. dishes were brought in late, the server kept forgetting things that we had asked for and that basically costed them five stars. A good food accompanied by good service is what people come for. However still thing the restaurant is great and a must try if you are in city

Quality & Taste: This is a vegan restaurant I’ve passed by many times, and now I can’t believe I didn’t visit sooner. It’s absolutely delicious. The menu is varied, the seasoning is just right, and the mushroom texture was so good that I already want to go back. Service: The staff all speak fluent English, which made it feel quite different from other Chinese restaurants. Price & Value: The prices are reasonable and well worth what you get. Atmosphere & Ambiance: The inside is cleaner than it looks from the outside. It’s well-organized, and the tableware was spotless

I’ve been trying to eat vegan for a month, and I usually cook for myself — but this time I decided to try this place. Everything I ordered was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great vegan food. You won’t be disappointed!

This place is heaven for vegetarians. The food is delicious. There are SO many options. We ordered the San Choy Bow and Crispy Tofu as entrees and then the Honey Pumpkin and Braised Eggplant in Black Bean Sauce for mains. There wasn't a single bad dish. Everything was amazing. The honey pumpkin was amazing, so crispy. We also ordered a 'Lemon juice' to drink. You must try this. It was so good. The staff are so friendly too.

A hidden gem for meat lovers! They serve both grilled meat and hotpot, with excellent meat quality and flavors that are rich yet refreshing. The place can be a little hard to find, but it’s so worth it once you dine here. Enjoying the meal with friends makes the experience even more delightful. Highly recommended for a cozy and satisfying food adventure!

The ginseng chicken, fried chicken were great. Seafood pancake a bit oily and Tteokbokki a bit hard. Overall we enjoyed the lunch/afternoon tea and would come back again.

We tried the all-you-can-eat option with a 20% discount, and it was worth it! There were so many food choices — plenty of meats, side dishes to enjoy. The atmosphere was nice and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and quick to respond whenever we needed something. Overall, a really enjoyable dining experience. Would happily come back again!

This hidden retreat has really delicious sides that get refilled for free! The waiter was very attentive to our needs, offering aprons when he saw our light coloured clothes. The other guests seemed to be enjoying their kbbq, although we got cheese rice cakes and beef tofu stew. Both delicious and reasonably priced. Great atmosphere and location. 5 stars all round. 6 for service.

I saw a good rating on the map and decided the come for dinner Though the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, there was no ramp at the ally turning in to the restaurant. We didn’t know we had to turn in the ally corning cos according on the map, it’s on the Main Street. They have all you can eat, but we did A La Carte. We ordered beef and glass noodles. While everyone said they liked the beef, me as a person living in Japan didn’t like the beef taste at all. So I think this is an individual problem. Looks like they also cater tour groups. Just stereotyping, if a restaurant do tour groups at the same time all you can eat. I think their food quality might not be as good. That was the reason y I didn’t like the taste at all.

I’ve been eating here off & on over many years and the food never disappoints. Authentic Thai dishes with fresh ingredients. It’s very popular some days so there can be a wait for a table but on this occasion we were seated straight away. Most tables overlook the kitchen area and there’s views of the street outside too, so plenty going on to keep you amused while you wait for your food. A nice range of beer (Singha & Chang too), wines & cocktails available. Service was great with efficient, attentive & friendly serving staff. This is definitely one of the best Thai restaurants in the city centre - worth a try!

This is no longer the “home-style” Thai comfort food I remember. The quality has dropped, and the service felt unwelcoming. The pork neck salad was cold, dry, and dense—more like reheated food than freshly made. The Pad See Ew lacked the flavour and freshness you’d expect, not even close to authentic street food. Despite the restaurant being quiet, the food took a surprisingly long time to arrive. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re hoping for that old comforting Thai experience.

This place was near my hotel and at lunchtime I noticed it was very busy. On my last day I tried it and had the lunch special of Massaman Beef and rice. It was creamy and beef very tender. It was tasty. Serving was a little light on the meat but I was satisfied.

Had lunch here with work colleagues. Service is friendly and staff are attentive to customers'needs. However, the food is average. I had the grilled pork neck and some of the pieces were hard and tasted like they were reheated. I also ordered sticky rice for takeaway but they forgot to serve it. In hindsight, I should've remembered to follow-up before we left the place.

This Thai restaurant delivers on all fronts—authentic flavors, generous portions, and a wide variety of dishes to choose from. Whether you're in the mood for something spicy, sweet, or savory, there's something for everyone. A great spot for reliable, flavorful Thai food. Will definitely be back to try more from the menu!
