They also do salt and pepper squid which is not bad. Their salt and pepper flounder is pretty good and I like their pipa tofu dish. Always a consistent meal and never disappointed when I leave.

One of my and my family's favourite restaurant in Footscray! 19years living in Melbourne, I find…read morethat this is the place to get the best roasted duck, both taste and texture is just perfect! All their other dishes are great too, I've ate here for many years and don't recall having any complaints for both food and services.

Jimmy has been running this restaurant since the 60's and I think the menu has stayed the same too. This is okay with me! It is old school Muriel's Wedding Chinese food and I love it. The dim sims are famous and give south Melbourne market ones a big run for their money. The staff are old school and no nonsense too. All of this gives me an authentic Aussie Chinese night out. Don't go expecting fusion or to be waited on hand and foot! Go there expecting old school banana fritters, dim sims and paper placemats!! If you are lucky jimmy will come and say from out the back too :)

We had the banquet and while it was nice to have small plates, I was not impressed at the choice at all. It wasn't crowded on a Friday evening so that should have told me volumes. Staff was friendly but was keen to get us out as soon as possible. I really wanted to like this place, but wont be going back.

The food was really filling, delicious and authentic flavours! I was really surprised with how large the portions are. There's a lot of pictures to see on the menu which was a bonus if you're unsure what to get. The service was really quick and efficient as well as friendly staff. For a weekday, it was decently busy but still easy to get a table. Overall, I would recommend coming here if you're in the area.

Broken rice is pretty good so definitely try that! The side broth you get with the broken rice is definitely better than other places! It had colour instead of the bland clear broth. Plus it's got crispy bits of pork in it that really makes it special. So am impressed. The ladies there are super nice and was keen on any feedback we had on the dishes. Love their enthusiasm If you go make sure you take advantage of their opening special - 10% of the bill. Not sure how long they'll have that promo on though!

Absolutely loved this place! Affordable and so tasty!! Only problem they couldn't swap out steamed…read morerice for fried rice but I'm just being picky, will definitely come back!

The spring rolls were delicious and cheap and the seafood soup was very very nice. All up the whole meal, including drinks cost about $32 for 2 people. Its nothing particularly fancy - just good quality, fresh food in a nice enough environment. - but then thats just how I like it!

Was craving yum cha in the scray and since yummie restaurant has now turned into roti road we gave…read morethis place a try. Was pretty quiet when we arrived approx 1030 on a Saturday morning, so seating wasn't an issue! The staff were nice, usually at yum cha places you get the pushy trolley ladies trying to upsell you absolutely everything but these guys didn't. What I was miffed and disappointed at was their menu. Can't remember what this place used to be but I wouldn't be surprised if it was what they masking taped over lol (ie. Good luck restaurant - check out my pic!). Now because the place was relatively small and not much people were dining there wasn't much of a manic trolley chasing food vibe going on. So we were offered a picture menu if we needed anything made. Which is good! But the stuff I wanted they no longer offer (lolwut) I guess this place is pretty 'meh'. Meh because while the place offers what it offers you can certainly get better elsewhere. By better I mean, better tasting and more selection. And yes they do sell mango pudding! And it's ok!

Warning: they only deliver on occasion (even though you can order and pay for delivery at any time…read moreduring their opening hours). Ordered at 8pm on a Friday night, paid for food and called the restaurant half an hour later to confirm order. None of the staff could speak English well enough to check on the status of our order. They spoke over the top of me, from what I could tell they were trying to say that our food was going cold and needed to be picked up as they do not deliver (even though delivery is an option on ML and other reviewers have received deliveries). After 5 minutes of trying to make sense of each other, the person on the phone started yelling hysterically telling me the food was ready to be collected and we needed to come and pick it up right away if we wanted our food. I chose to ignore other's reviews mentioning bad service. I can put up with poor service in exchange for good food. However, when bad service leads to no delivery for no good reason (after paying $80 for dinner) it's just not good enough. Never again, Golden Horse.

Everything was a let down and all food lacked any taste at all. We tried the special fried rice, cumin lamb, shao-long Bao, chicken and prawn dumplings in chilli oil . Special fried rice meat was spam...very not special Cumin lamb was really onion with lamb and some oil Shao-long Bao was boringly boring Chicken and prawn dumplings in chilli oil did not have any hint of chilli taste or kick So the only good thing was the tea. Upon paying, the kitchen and glassware was atrociously dirty. Glad I didn't ask for a drink. Really a must not try restaurant!
