I ordered take away....I was told it would be ready in 20 minutes…read more I get there to pick up my order I asked 2 staff members separately, how long it would be before it's ready and nobody came back to let me know. I received my order after 40 minutes. I mentioned how I was told it would only be 20 minutes and a male staff member denied that I was told that. Got home, I'm only 5 minutes away from the restaurant, and the special fried rice was cold and tasted bland. The chicken was cooked well and so was the Mongolian beef. whilst I was waiting at the restaurant, I noticed their carpet needed a vacuum badly and the customer service was not that great. I will never buy from there again or recommend anyone else to. A very poor and dishonest service.

Decided to take a trip down memory lane and visit Pearl Garden…read more... very disappointed! After being seated I looked around to find so much dirt and neglect. Seated at the table right by the cash register, I could see on the floor, leaves! Leaves that had probably come in with the wind as customers walked- leaves tangled up,with the electric cords attached to cash register.Then I noticed the 4 plants in pots - dying, thick dust over them and dust I could write my name in on the wooden decorative edging below the plants. The mirror on the far wall was- you guessed it - filthy! with smeared wipe marks all over it. The veges and beancurd I ordered came with oyster sauce..I asked could it be changed to curry, no problem he said, except when it arrived I think they forgot the curry! My friend enjoyed her Mongolian Beef, but not the dirt and dust around us The service was prompt and with a smile, but I doubt that I and my friend will ever return.

I have have coming here regularly maybe at most monthly since late last year... the menu items here…read moreare a welcome change to the usual local offerings in pho and viet food... I've tried their fried Kwai Teoh, stir fried flat noodles in egg gravy (wat tan hor) haha, salted fish chicken fried vermicelli, hainanese chicken rice, bbq chicken rice, 3 cup chicken, fried fish in some sauce I forget.., century egg congee.. salted egg king prawn, oh beware of #18 on the menu, it should be updated with "Sichuan" in front of it!! Same as the dainty style. It's not the Vietnamese stew beef! :) All were pretty good.. But what I like the most are the wat tan hor and the hainanese Chicken rice (when they get it right).. most of the time when the consistency in quality is there. 3 cup chicken!!

I love Chinese food, and honestly, this is the best I've found in Melbourne. The food is…read moreconsistently good and while it's a tad on the pricey side, the service is great and food is yum. I usually get Chicken Fried Rice or some other kind of poultry dish. Everything I've ever had here is fantastic. Even their basic vegetarian spring rolls are really good. The minor downsides are that parking can be tricky and you may need to park a little bit away from here (which is a pain in the butt on a rainy night). Also, yes, a little on the pricey side as I mentioned before. But honestly, if you want good food and good service, then this is definitely worth trying.

Nothing tastes like it used to and so taking her out to a restaurant is tough because most of the time she's not going to be happy. Potsticker has been a winner year after year when I come to visit my mom. Every dish we order she still not only likes but really enjoys. The crab claws are delicious filled with real crab, lots of it, with a tasty sauce. The Fried Tofu is perfect in both seasoning and texture. Crispy on the outside and wonderfully soft and creamy on the inside. Their soups are excellent and my shredded beef was really delicious. I highly recommend this place as an always good staple. It is also pretty to sit in and reasonably priced.

A great little find in Brighton. This small off the main strip location serves authentic Vietnamese…read morefood. Decoration is Vietnamese style with half the tables having bench style seating and cushions as back support. Great to have white clothed tables. Menu items each have Vietnamese titles with the English description written underneath. The menu is extensive with a small wine list for diners to choose to accompany their dinner. Many of our own previously selected and enjoyed favourites were on the menu and we had absolutely no trouble in selecting items for our home delivery.

We tried Modu as it was in the gold section of the Entertainment Book and by the look of the…read morewebsite, we thought it to be a high end and upscale Chinese restaurant. While it wasn't high end, it's certainly got a nice, modern vibe to it and good food. Parking is quite problematic in the area, but getting a table here isn't. They sit you down and only give half of the table a menu. It's quite an extensive menu, so really everyone needs their own. Admittedly, as a fairly non adventurous eater, the menu is a little scary with items like duck blood this and bullfrog that. But the meals we all got were quite good. The food came out fast and everything tasted nice. I've certainly had a better meal at other Chinese restaurants before, but this was ok for sure if you're in the area. I think the food is reasonably priced - with or without the Entertainment Book - and the service was efficient and friendly enough. With so much to choose from and a good amount of seating and tasty fare, I'd recommend Modu if you find yourself in this part of town.

Second visit: Love the delicious generous serving of Sze…read moreChuan fish fillets with rice at ~$12. I tried to order a glass of cold milk to wash away some of the spicy peppery taste instead of gulping down glasses of free water which barely does the job to remove the spicy taste (authentic). I felt there is an unrealised $$$ opportunity for restaurants / food courts that sell spicy food like Chinese Sze Chuan / Indian Curry / Hotpot to create a better customer experience for the benefits of all stakeholders by selling cold milk - although milk tends to spoil quickly thus its likely you will only find cold milk served in high end establishments e.g. hotels. Would small individual long shelf life milk packets do the trick of removing spiciness? This will be valuable especially in Western countries for people of all demographics who are not used to taking spicy food. Think about the benefits worldwide and at MoDu Clayton restaurant. First Visit: Restaurant Name: Modu Clayton Chinese Restaurant Unique Dish: Duck Blood Noodles. Food: Good Portion size. Service: Servers are well presented, smiling & polite. Came quickly to use when we raised our hands for service. Atmosphere: Well decorated & Clean. Toilet is clean. Great Music at the right volume. Price: Value for $$$ - Braised Beef Rice I give it 5 / 5 stars. I highly recommend you to bring your family, colleagues and friends there this week.
