    Suzanne and Teddy are fantastic hosts as always! We were in one of the private rooms and 8 of us thoroughly enjoyed every single dish of the Peking Duck Banquet for my Son's 13th Birthday. The food is up there with flavour and portion size and is as good or better than any major capital City in Australia. Have also had the salt and pepper mud crab and it's the best I've ever had. Well done Suzanne and Teddy for putting the GC on the map for brilliant Chinese food. cheers Matt

    It is so pricey to the food quality and service. The staffs are not professional as we had had to have a birthday cake on the messy and uncleaned table. The most important thing is they tried to surcharge the customer other stuffs like takeaway boxes or cakage although my bill was few hundred dollars. It might be the way of the business making money when they was so quite( only 3-4 tables at Saturday night).

    Hi Hang Le, we regret to see your dissatisfaction to our food and service when you celebrated a 12-year-old boy's birthday. There was another table who also celebrated a birthday. When we were about to bring out their birthday cake, we did not want your young boy to miss out his birthday encounter. So we brought out his birthday cake with candles and Birthday Song background music. We celebrated two birthdays together and everybody was having fun. We apologised that you were unhappy with the table not being cleaned up properly and the most important thing being the surcharge of four takeaway containers and cakage for 10 people. It was reasonable charge for extra goods and services we provided.

    The food was simply amazing and they catered to our dietary needs! The staff was super friendly, accommodating and helpful - we have a 9month old who self feeds and they were really relaxed with the mess. The chili crab is a must try - it tastes exactly like the one we had in Singapore. If you order this, be sure to order it with the fried mantou buns! The seafood fried rice was delicious with very generous amount of actual seafood in it! The kids love this. We also ordered the poached fish in chili oil (Szechuan style), salt & pepper calamari, pickled cucumbers, black fungus, garlic stir fried prawns and stir fried Veges. I would visit them again if we’re in Gold Coast!
