How we read reviews →Richmond's cash-only institution for crispy three-course Peking duck banquets and BYO wine.
A packed, boisterous Chinese banquet hall built around sharing a whole duck. loud, fast-turning tables and a no-frills, family-run feel rather than polished fine dining.
Whole duck sliced and served as a three-course set, BYO wine with two liquor stores metres away (corkage $2pp, no BYO beer), cash-only payment, decades-long family ownership carried over from its original Smith Street site.
Family-run by an elderly Chinese owner with staff overheard speaking Cantonese; most reviewers treat it as a classic overseas-Chinese duck house, though a few dispute how close the duck is to "authentic" Peking style.
The roughly $67-70 three-course duck set (feeding 2-3) reads as fair value to most reviewers given the portion, though several call the total bill steep once extras and service issues are factored in.
