I love this place! Every time I have been here the food is always fresh, tasting and the portions are excellent. I think you really do get your moneys worth, I highly recommend the Flying Fajitas for 2. Saves a lot more than getting individual mains. We got the steak, prawn , snapper and chicken, All was tasty and cooked perfectly. Will be back very soon :)

I went here last Friday night for a friends birthday. They had booked the dining room out as there was a fair few of us there. The birthday boy had arranged the $48 a head banquet. This is pretty pricey I think for chinese but me and my bf both thought it was fair if there was plenty of good quality food. We were sadly mistaken.

All dishes that were brought out were thrown on the table by the waiter and were such bad quality I think most foodcourts would have fresher and tastier foods. There was one dish that they claimed was beef that I swear looked like something you would find out of a tin of dog food. I dont even think I could clasify it as beef! The prawns were boiled or something and were tough and bland and the salt and pepper squid was way to salty and chewy.

The only saving grace was the vegtables that a 2 year old could make (mixed veggies with some oyster sauce)easy! To top it all off the waiter who claimed he couldnt speak english had ordered us $220 sake when we didnt want/ask for it and threw the plates infront of you with no care and didnt even have a smile or eye contact.

Overall our contribution to the bill came to $160 bucks with 2 beers each and I had a few nibbles of veggies and some rice with one scallop on the side. I really think these people should be shut down and revamped. Absolutely appalling how they can charge so much for such poor service and food. Will never coming back here again!

Went here a few weeks ago. We didn't book anywhere so we casually walked up King Street to find somewhere that was available. We stumbled across Sherpa Kitchen and thought we would give it a go. As it was a busy Saurday night they only table left was right by where the waiters pass through from the kitchen/bar. We weren't going to be fussy we we hadn't booked and were getting pretty hungry. The first waiter was friendly and asked about our day and told us a little about the menu.

We asked for entree the chicken, lime and chilli dish. Came out cold! after eating the cold entree I was rudely asked by the waitress to move while she could move a table around behind me. We then got our mains which were the chicken and lamb curry. We also got a chicken roti style bread and rice. The mains looked like they were made from gravox and both had the same taste (even though were two different types).

While I was about to take my first mouthful all of a sudden something hard and wet fell on me. It was three bottles of beer that the waitress is taking to a table that had smashed on my arm and spilt all over me! As she was frantically cleaning up that moved us to another table, but didn't ask how I was or that this meal was on them. Cheeky! So in the end I said to my bf I want to leave as it wasn't very good and he approached the waiter said we are leaving without paying, and I will say this, will Never be back. Rude, cheap over priced disappointment food, and the decor isn't all that!
