The food is incredibly authentic, and the service is friendly and fast. It's the perfect spot for office workers in the area. Prices are very affordable too. I've visited several times, and the quality is consistently excellent. My favorite dish is the XO stir-fried rice noodles with beef, today I tried the Hainan chicken rice, and it was incredibly tender. Highly recommended!

located in a food court, so the court is cold when its cold outside as the doors stay open BUT best laksa EVER!!!!!! Portion was huge I could barely finish mine. Delicious on a cold and rainy day. Warmed me RIGHT up and had the most amazing flavors. Beef brisket and crispy chicken laksa were amazing

Mar 2024: New takeaway in Sydney's worst office building/ food court! Glad they've moved in, excellent mix of classic Asian dishes. Do all the ones I've tried so far very well. All dishes $15+ but I guess that's where we are with the last 2 years of inflation... Good luck to them.

Delicious food and friendly service. They do get very busy during the weekday lunchtime. Orders can take a little longer than expected when they are busy but is always cooked fresh and to order. It's definitely worth checking them out!

The best Cantonese food I had in Australia!! The the price is very fair! The Reception lady is very nice and sweet! She offered free soup for me as I asked. :) I’m appreciated her energy! She can speak mandarin & Cantonese. Feel at home!

Legit noodle soup near Wynyard without going to Chinatown! All dishes are only $17-$18 with great portions. Love the Beef Brisket Wonton Noodles (Dry): tender fatty brisket with tasty sauce & wontons, on top of thin flat rice noodles with a small bowl of delicious soup on the side. The Crispy Chicken here is very good (their default menu is laksa, but you can change it to noodle soup or rice), so is the wonton noodle soup. However I think the Hainanese Chicken Rice was just ok, it satisfies but noodle soups are the star!

It's amazing that you can choose three dishes from so many delicious-looking options plus white rice for just $17. I seriously envy the office workers nearby who have such fantastic choices!
