How we read reviews →CBD Hunan specialist famed for chopped chilli fish head and fiery, authentic flavours.
Small, packed Chinese restaurant on Little Lonsdale St with a lively, no-frills dining room that fills up fast on busy nights.
Authentic Hunan dishes rarely found in Melbourne, spicy fish-head specialty, dry-pot style cooking, popular with Mandarin-speaking diners.
Reviewers repeatedly praise the authentic Hunan spice and technique, though some long-time diners feel the heat level has been toned down from the restaurant's earlier location.
Mostly seen as reasonably priced for generous, authentic dishes, though one reviewer flagged an unexplained surcharge on a takeaway order.
