How we read reviews →A near-40-year Chinatown institution built on table-side Peking duck and Cantonese classics.
White-tablecloth, old-school Cantonese fine dining in the heart of Chinatown. formal, attentive service that can turn buzzy and loud on busy nights.
Peking duck is carved and presented table-side; the wine list reportedly runs longer than the food menu, and the venue has operated at the same Little Bourke Street address for close to four decades.
Reviewers repeatedly describe it as one of the last stalwart Cantonese-speaking restaurants in Melbourne, praised for old-school authenticity and classic technique.
Premium pricing, with set banquets around $98 a head; most reviewers say the Peking duck and classics justify the cost, though several found banquet portions small for the price.
