Rating has change due to recent experience on services which is mentioned at the bottom of the review. Love this new management restaurant... This restaurant is so hidden that I pass here everyday and never thought would come and dine in. Thanks to my bff if she wouldn't have intro me to this place, I miss a gem. Decorations are pretty general like how Chinese restaurants are. This restaurant has pretty high ceiling and they only install one air con - it was a hot day when we dine in and I was sweating. However, the food served there compensate the heat. It was quite authentic Asian food served here. Must try the signature grill fish dish with pickle cabbage and chilli. It was really delici...

We reviewed this restaurant very favourably when it first opened but did not return when the menu posted outside subsequently seemed more 'mainstream'. We ate there tonight and the choices on the inside menu were much more interesting. The food was fantastic - generous servings, fresh, hot and very tasty. Unfortunately the waiting staff could not translate the 'specials board' (at all) and had a limited knowledge of the wine (or where to find it or corkage) but I would still rate this restaurant very highly on the quality of the food and presentation alone. Next time we will get someone from the kitchen to translate. And the corkage is very reasonable.

If you can get past the traditional Hong Kong service (this is not a compliment), the food is really quite good. The menu is authentic Mainland Chinese but with enough safety dishes for the less adventurous (e.g. Sweet and sour pork; beef in black bean sauce). Mainland Chinese food tends to be a little oily but here it was okay. I had the spicy lamb ribs, fried cauliflower and rice. All generous serves at a fair price. All the patrons were Chinese which is another good sign. I would definitely return.
