This place is absolutely wonderful. What attracted me here was the fond reviews I've red over…read moreGoogle for this place. So after struggling to find a decent Chinese restaurant in the berbs, I did have high expectations for this gem. Although the street appeal probably isn't anything to woo at, and inside is a tad bit dated, yet is still humble in a family restaurant kind of way. I feel it may have been the owners who were working the front of house, and they were both lovely. They clearly have been in the business a while and did a good job and making us feel comfortable, and giving us a little giggle as well. The menu had heaps of choose from. Seemed as if there were a few extra options compared to other basic Chinese restaurants, including a traditional and western dessert menu. I had the Chicken Satay dish off the chef special menu. It was amazing. The sauce was flavoursome and certainly didn't seem like out of a jar type of thing. It was served with broccoli pieces as well as a little burning flame in the middle of the plate. My partner had the Sizzling Steak Mongolian style dish and the pieces were tender and juicy, with lovely sweet and tangy Mongolian flavours through-out. The plate was also served with vegetables. I love this place. It's my new found gem. I've been searching a while for a nice place to grab some quality Chinese food, and I think I've found my stop. This place isn't anything designer or high-end perhaps, but it still possess a charming old-school look and humble home-style meals, which is something I look when dining at Asian restaurants in the berbs.

The staff is just about as friendly as you can get.. Service was quick and prices where very good. Food was good, I have had better but it's defiantly the best Chinese food in the area.

My Yen (or as I like to call it, My Yum) is your perfect Saturday night takeout option. They have a wide variety of takeaway dishes including entrees, chicken, pork, beef, noodles, seafood, rice and soup. On this visit, we opted for spring rolls, BBQ pork (entree), crispy chicken with plum sauce, vegetables with cashew nuts and some serves of steamed rice. All for about $30!! All the dishes were so yummy, with a special shoutout for the crispy chicken with plum sauce! Tender and to die for! Our order was ready in a mere 15-20mins, and the lovely people at the restaurant threw in a bag of those deliciously addictive prawn crackers for free which was a nice a touch. Next time you get the 'I Can't Be Bothered Cooking' feelings...try My Yen out for a tasty dinner.

Well, I actually do that most evenings, but haven't had the pleasure of My Yen for a while....until now! It is still brilliant, and I enjoyed every morsal of my old usual order. There is just something about slightly oily and gooey fried beef with an all encompassing sauce that you can't resist licking out until the container resembles its pre-filled form. I have had the Garlic Prawns and a few other dishes in the past, but I keep going back to the Beef. Fortunately the smell will be with me (in my car) for some days to come!

Despite being tucked away in a secluded location amongst the Glen Osmond Road discount shops, Rice…read moreis busy most nights and hugely popular with locals ordering takeaway. It has a modern fit out - a pleasant surprise for an asian restaurants - in a funky red and white and really friendly staff. I've eaten here with a group of mums and nabbed one of the tables with a lazy susan - great for spinning around shared dishes. I've also eaten plenty of takeaway and when I've been really lazy, taken advantage of the super cheap $3.50 delivery (within 3kms, minimum spend $30). Those in the know say it's authentic Cantonese cooking. The menu is extensive and while I haven't loved all the dishes, if you stick to the usual suspects you won't be disappointed. Most ambitious dish? Basil Cheese Chicken - "tender pieces of chicken tossed with basil, onion with mild chilli soy bean paste on a melt cheese bed and served on a sizzling platter." Don't let that put you off. My favourites are Shredded Roasted Duck Soup for $5.50 and Ants On Greens - "minced pork, sun-dried shrimps and mushroom wok seared in white wine and oyster sauce and served on a fresh greens bed. Don't worry, no ants at all!" for $12. And if you're feeling like a sweet finish, the pancakes with pan-fried red bean custard are delish. Oh, and kinda important, it is fully licensed with a good selection of wines.

Rice was definitely one of my favourites when I was living in the area - sadly not as frequently…read morevisited now I'm on the north eastern side of town, but I still get in once in a while. Eggplant hotpot is my dish of choice, it's something I find few restaurants really do well, and Rice excels at getting it spot on. Lunch specials are excellent value - the beef noodle was a feature on my desk at work many times. I worked with the wife of one of the chefs for a while, and can confirm it's all very authentic Cantonese :) The true test of a chinese restaurant, I took a chinese work colleague there, and he was impressed with both the menu, and the meals we received - he did spend a good five minutes discussing exactly what he wanted in Cantonese with the waitress, mind you - and I believe we had something that wasn't actually ON the menu, but it was all good :) Bookings are a must on Friday and Saturday nights, and recommended on others. Parking on Glen Osmond Road is a pain - make sure you tuck your mirror in, it's a rat race along there. If you go here for a business lunch, let them know and they'll make a point of getting the food to you promptly, or let you know if a dish will potentially take longer.

It's take away only, the young ladies on the front counter know their menu. They are willing to share ideas and although not totally clear on the menu - the vegetarian options are excellent. The price structure is on point. The portions are very satisfactory - we chose 7 dishes and were able to spread it across 2 meals amongst 4 adults. A gem of a place and is firmly our favourite Chinese in Victor when next we come and stay next.

Best to book if you do not want to miss out. The restaurant had changed hands again recently and name change of course. Well located on Greenhill Road not far from the Trak cinema and Burnside Village. It has a little garden in the front and a spacious area on the side for outdoor dinning in warmer weather. There's a reasonable sized car park area at the back. Huge entrance door which opens to a foyer and a big dinning room across the width of the restaurant. Tables are well spaced and there's no moving trolleys bringing plates of yum cha dishes. Waiting staff walks trays of goodies around and you could order also by filling out the order sheet of your favourite yum cha dishes. Standard yum cha dishes are all on offer as well as choices of noodles dishes. I just love their sweet sesame balls filled with sesame paste. Their cute little tea pots add 'class' to the table. Waiting staff are friendly and seems to cater and look after the packed restaurant well. Water was frequently topped up into those tea pots which 'pour' very well. To conclude, the price is very reasonable. Best to go in a group and share your experience with your friends. Just a note, yum cha means you drink Chinese tea with those little morsels and not soft drinks.

Nice Chinese food. The menu has all the key dishes - Sizzling steak, chicken, prawns, sweet and…read moresour pork and fried rice. The dishes are a decent serving size and the staff are generally quite nice. Pricing is on par with what you would expect. The food quality is good and there are a lot of flavors. Vegetables are generally pretty fresh which is also a positive. The steak is flavorsome however seasoning and sauces on some dishes can sometimes be a bit bland for my taste. The store is well positioned in the heart of McLaren Vale by the caravan park and is good for a quick dinner. Meals are $11 to $16. Personal favorites from the menu are Pork ribs in plum sauce, sizzling pepper chicken, satay chicken and lemon chicken. Rice is sold separately for $3 and is generally nice fluffy. Medium serves are not that much more pricey.

But ... service as soon as we arrived was outstanding. Friendly, but professional. We started off with vegetarian spring rolls which were your basic spring rolls - tasty, not greasy at all. Wine list was quite extensive too, which is a bonus! For mains, we shared the BBQ Pork Ribs with Plum Sauce, Satay Beef and Sizzling Chicken with Garlic. My partner's 6 year old ordered what all 6 year olds would probably order ... chicken nuggets and chips. No, not very Chinese, but I guess the restaurant knows what a good kids menu should include! All our main meals were outstanding - and yes, I was surprised! Especially the BBQ Pork Ribs, which could be 'cut' with a spoon (and had hardly any bones). I swear the meal wasn't as good as this last time we visited (which was about a year ago) - I am seriously impressed, and already planning a return visit. Oh, and 3 adults and 1 child for a total of $85 (and that included a glass of wine for each adult) - well, that's even better ;)

If you're looking for tasty Chinese take away, then give Choy Inn Chinese Take Away a go. Their…read morebest dishes are their : special fried rice, satay chicken/beef, black bean beef/chicken, lemon chicken, king prawn garlic, Singapore and Hokkein noodles. Their satays and springs rolls are also all home made, which makes it taste even better. People have actually just bought their "home made" satay sauce to add to their rice. It's THAT good! Walking into the shop, it doesn't look flashy at all. However, what you're there for is the food. And this shop impresses with their food. Maybe a bit pricier than other shops, but the ingredients used are all high quality. Compared to other Chinese take away restaurants that use mid-range quality ingredients, Choy Inn Chinese produces great tasting food with great ingredients. They also don't use MSG, which is a bonus. They do get quite busy on Fridays-Sundays, so waiting time will possibly be extended. They are also closed on Tuesdays. I strongly recommend this Take Away, as it is easily the best Chinese take away in Adelaide.
