People who live in hurstville for their whole life would know about this place I reckon as I noticed families like to frequent here. Although this is a small place, they have a vast options of dishes to choose from the menu, as usual, Chinese’s style. We had white bait with salt and pepper, deep fried tofu balls with chicken, prawns and mushrooms inside with broccoli as side, and also stir-fried mixed vegetables. The food portion was quite huge given the price they charged. Overall the food didn’t disappoint and would come again with family or friends.

The food here is genuinely great—flavourful and served in generous portions, which is definitely the highlight. But the customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Staff aren’t very welcoming—no smiles, serious expressions, and at times it felt like they were just throwing the menu in our direction. There’s a sense of impatience that makes the experience less enjoyable. The atmosphere doesn’t help either. The entrance isn’t inviting, and the upstairs dining area is quite bare, with little to no decor, which makes it feel a bit cold and unwelcoming. The food is what keeps this place going, and it’s truly worth trying. But with friendlier service and a more inviting space, the overall experience could be so much better

Everything we ordered were delicious. Generous serving. Service was quick. Sadly to say..people who work there weren't friendly. They looked unhappy, irritable and tired. They did a great job though.

Another hidden gem in Hurstville! I had noticed this restaurant before when passing by during lunchtime, but since there weren’t many customers, I assumed the business wasn’t doing too well. However, the day before yesterday, I walked past again and saw a long line of people waiting outside. That piqued my curiosity, so I decided to give it a try. While waiting in line, the restaurant seemed quite small, which I thought was the reason for the queue. But later, I found out they actually have a second floor, and it was completely packed that day. After tasting their food, I understood why so many people were there—it was really good! And they is free tea. And the best part? It wasn’t expensive either. Definitely worth the visit!
