I would have to say that this place has the best dumplings in Sydney and is the only restaurant I would go to for juicy dumplings. Every time I go here, I order way too much because I get too excited and want to try everything. Everything I have tried was great and so delicious, and I could just sit down and order 20 dumplings for myself!

However, I hate waiting every time. Once I had to sit on a larger table with other customers. Wasn't too bad but I would have preferred to sit on my own table. Service is average, not great as they are always so busy.

My boyfriend took me here for my birthday which was on new years and it was the best dining I've had in a while. Had a booking at 7pm and from the moment we got there, the service was amazing. Meets the standard of fine dining as the staff are very polite and prompt. I had the salmon for entree than wagyu steak for main and my boyfriend had the scallops for entree and the barramundi for main.

The food came out surprisingly quick and it was very delicious and just the perfect amount that left us satisfied and content with the food. Yes it may be a bit pricey but it is definitely worth it as the food is very good quality. We then had dessert which was also very tasty. Great atmosphere too.

This is probably one of my favourite Thai restaurant and I enjoy eating Thai food. The first time I went here, we had to wait about 30 minutes. However, it was worth the wait! My boyfriend and I were very hungry so we ordered a lot of dishes and they were all good.

The quality of the food is great and we were very full and content with the taste of all the dishes we ordered. However, the table we were seated at was right in front of the door and was very small so we had trouble keeping all the dishes on the table. It is a bit cramped and the service was slow. But the food was good and I will definitely be coming back here when I'm craving Thai!

This is an average Thai restaurant as they only provide good quality food through a very small variety of dishes. The first time I went here, I happened to order the right dishes so I was very impressed. However, every time I went back to try a new dish, I was disappointed every time. The best dishes are the salmon fish, scallops and fried chicken. Every thing else I have tried was not worth it.

The ambience has a nice modern feel, however, they are always busy and at times they have a live band playing which is very loud and not pleasant when you want to converse through your dinner or order your food. It is also indoors located in capital which is not the best location. So overall, I only go to this restaurant if I'm craving the salmon.

I had a phase where I was really into frozen yogurt so I ventured around Sydney to all the frozen yogurt places I knew of and I can certainly say that Wowcow is my favourite. Some frozen yogurt places are too yogurty while some places are too creamy. But the frozen yogurt from wowcow is just right. I also love the wow sticks, which are like churros but baked not fried. I always get these to dip in melted chocolate and a small original, and my favourite toppings would be the mango pearls, flakes and whatever I feel like on the day.

Place is very small, not much seats to sit down and enjoy my dessert. Service is good too, however, it is a bit pricey as each topping is about $1.95? But they do give you a fair amount. I have been here so many times I've used up a few buy 10 get one free cards.

This is my favourite sushi train place in all of Sydney. They have the best tasting sushi and side dishes for such a cheap price. Have never found a place with such great value. Every time I crave Japanese food, I don't hesitate where I should go because I know I'll be heading to Sushi Hotaru. The tables where you can order from the iPad's are so convenient. I don't even have to think about how much I order because I know I can eat as much as I want without having to worry about the price because it is so cheap!

One of my 3 favourite thai restaurants. Very good atmosphere, nice interior, however, sometimes it is too noisy. Need to make booking at times as it gets really busy. It is overpriced, but the quality of the food is good so I don't mind paying the price. My favourite dish would be the duck salad.

Our family casually eats from Moon Koon whether it be dining in or takeaway/ delivery. I am surprised to see a few negative reviews as this restaurant is a top choice for my friends and neighbors. My family's favourite dish would definitely be the Steak in Wasabi and Garlic Butter King Prawns. I agree with the positive reviews below as the steak was not once chewy but tender.

As we are regulars, we have tried most of the dishes from Moon Koon and my overall statement would be that this restaurant provides good quality tasting food that is not greasy and definitely not flavourless. I am usually very picky with staff service and the atmosphere as I like to dine in a place with good ambience and polite staff.

Some Chinese restaurants we have been to, the staff are rude and overall lack service skills. However, Moon Koon provides good service and I personally do not mind the ambience although it isn't the greatest. It is a nice and cosy restaurant that people should generally not have a problem dining in.
