How we read reviews →Carnegie's go-to for pan-fried dumplings and Northern Chinese comfort food.
Cosy, unpretentious dining room with a family-run feel. reviewers describe it as a classic, no-fuss neighbourhood Chinese restaurant rather than anywhere flashy.
Hand-stuffed Qingdao-style sausage, a Sichuan peppercorn and pickled-vegetable fish soup, and a rotating Shandong-style home-cooking menu reviewers say is hard to find elsewhere in Melbourne.
Multiple Chinese reviewers, including recent arrivals from Qingdao and Shanghai, describe the food as more authentic than what they find elsewhere in Melbourne, singling out the dumplings and smoked pork trotters.
Reviewers repeatedly call out generous, well-priced portions, citing a large plate of pan-fried dumplings for around $16 as one of Melbourne's best-value Chinese meals.
