I would give it four to five stars during the day as Yum Cha is their thing. The trolleys are plentiful and there is a wide array of dumpling and fried goodness as well as fast and friendly service. For dinner service it is a little slower and the prices seem to jump considerably. Good value at dinner does come if you have a table of four or more as the banquet is a great feed at a good price.

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.

Do you remember Muriel's Wedding? You know where they go and eat in the old school retro aussie…read morechinese with the specials written up on butchers paper around the walls well that is what you get with Dragon Express. The food is simply the best and the decor and service is friendly and no frills with a huge hint of nostalgia. As a child I remember going to chinese and seeing the paper placemats and ice cream sundaes and adoring it!! Dragon Express gives me all of that plus amazing chinese food. Their homemade dim sims and mini spring rolls are worth driving to Sunshine for and their banquet for under $30 a head is worth taking a table of four with you. My advice? Ignore the location and give it a go!!

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!
