Payneham Chinese Restaurant

Takeaway dinner just as good, very delicious & fresh, punctual. Quality similar to dine in, now covid government rules forbid dine in. Now it take home your usual favourites & enjoy just like we did tonight. We had a feast of really delicious food at home, no different to the many times we dine in there as far as quality is concerned. You don’t have to deny yourself of the past so many dinners you had here with your guests because of the present government covid restrictions. Now its enjoy it in the comfort of your home, enjoy.....the many delicious favourites you are used to....even in these covid times. Best ring up, the more notice the better, or a day before any one or for special occasions or a big order for many hungry stomachs. Lunch Tim sum We always have the best takeaway tim sum lunch. Quality, flavour & taste one of the best locally. Not a big range but what they do they do it really well. Still warm when we get home down the road. As chinese we eat tim sum often, & u cant b wrong here. Enjoy. Best ring up & order, if a day before better still especially for a special lunch or for a big family.

Had a Terrible experience, my wife booked a table for 4 adults. 4 kids. For Chinese new year tonight. We are arriving for our booking at 7pm and were told they never got the booking??? No table for is. The owner/employee made us feel like we never booked. My wife even showed the number called for booking. They obviously had a higher adult booking! Absolute joke. Dont trust this place! Utter Farce! No Stars! Disgraceful!

My first time dining here. It's always a good sign when on a Monday night the Restaurant is near full & most diners are Asian. Excellent friendly service, very fresh & authentic dishes at reasonable prices in humble surroundings. I can genuinely recommend this establishment & shall certainly be returning again.

I heard from a relative when they ate here in a big group it was good. But I went here with a friend and ordered smaller dishes and it was awful. I think their specialty are the big family dishes. We ordered a beef dish and the beef had been treated with so much bi-carb, the meat texture did not resemble real meat any more but felt more like fake meat. Beef in Australia is really good quality, you don't need to treat the beef like that anymore. One of the other dishes we had was an egg noodle with seafood and vegetable stir fry. The seafood was not fresh, and the noodles were extremely soggy or overcooked, it did not even require chewing. I'm not sure if we're just unlucky or if we were discriminated against bc we were not a large table that would order a lot of food (and hence be spending a lot of money). Even food from food court was much better quality than what we ate here.

The serving sizes are generous and the food was tasty. Unfortunately we found tea leaves in our soft drink glasses (staff apologised and replaced drink) hair in the soup (soup was not charged for) another hair on the plate underneath the pile of rice while scooping the remainder of the rice into a takeaway container (did not mention to staff) and then another hair on the inside of the take away container lid, which we at first thought was a crack in the plastic but when we asked for a replacement lid the waiter realised it was a hair and apologised

I go here for the yum cha. Has most of the standard selections you'd want. Seating is not as squashy as the city places, and because they're not looking to do two or three seatings you don't feel rushed or get given daggers if you're not inhaling your food. Quality is as good if not better than the city places, since this is the same group that ran Gouger palace all those years ago
