Chinese restaurant in Auckland

“I was looking for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. I don't normally try new restaurants as I'm scared of being disappointed. But I decided to take a chance on this spot and I don't regret it at all. I chose the pork belly on rice and it was beautiful. The pork was juicy. Just the right ratio of fat to meat. The cracking crispy and seasoned to perfection. And the portion size was great for the price point. A little sticky sweet sauce on the side would have taken this meal from great to "God tier status". I'm definatley coming back.”

“Had one of the best Asian food experiences with my crew. the food was amazing. The 8hour smashed braised beef and the stir fried singaporean noodles were my favourite, even the wok charred cashew brocolli caught me off guard, that it made me enjoy veges more. Unfortunatley im not the type to always take photos of such great food, since im there to eat not post and eat, so rely on other reveiwers for that :) The prices are very fair and well worth the cost. The service from Ted and his employees were amazing and I can't wait to return with my family next time, to enjoy this experience once more.”

“Very yummy and fresh vegan tofu noodles. Lots of flavour and portion was generous.”

“Wow this is a return visit to this intimate dining venue after a few years. This time I was with my family. The portion sizes are generous. We had three small dishes and three mains with three sides. The small dishes were larger than expected. Pork, prawns and fish tartar all different but delicious. For a main I had the sweet and sour pork belly, this my go to dinner choice and it was mind blowing. I have rarely had a dish that was so perfectly balanced between rich salty pork and the sour sauce, I was in heaven. The duck fried rice and beef curry were rich and flavourful. No one had food envy and there was enough to share, we all loved it. Cocktails were lovely too, high recommended dinner experience. I'll let the photos speak for the cosy intimate atmosphere.”

“This place never dissapoints, we drive from Mairangi Bay to get standard takeaways here. Burgers and Toasties are great. They have THE BEST chips. Their wontons are delicous too. Have tried a couple chinese dishes and they didn't disappoint either. The owners/staff are really nice too. Definitely worth the drive.”

“Yep.. quality all the way! Fish & chips are mega!!!”

“Love their spicy chinese noodles~ food price seems reasonable, lovely owner always welcoming us with his great smile~ Restaurant is small but clean & cosy. Delicious steam dumplings we always take away.”

“Slapper food best bang for your buck you can get in Auckland probably 12 bucks for chicken chips and salad 11.50 for a pixk n mix pack can put stir fry fry rice chop suey egg foo young sweet sour pork”

“Food is really good. Highly recommend the dumplings in the chilli & pepper soup. Warning, food is a lot spicier here. Normally would go for a medium, but that ended up feeling like a hot/extra hot. If you like things hot but not to the point of sweating a lot, stick to the mild.”

“Ordered twice this week via Doordash from your store and totally impressed and love your food... Fish is Beautiful as well as the crab sticks.. 100% recommend your shop...”

“Great service, great price and food tasted amazing.”

“Pricing is unbelievable for what you get - generous portions and very tasty! Dishes are well prepared and they have set specials to choose from. Many asian styled dishes and standard takeaway items to choose from. This place is a must try for those cold nights where you don’t feel like cooking or just want some comfort food without it being too greasy and heavy. You’ll also receive some free wontons too over a certain dollar spend!”

“Great lunch here! Awesome environment Highly recommend Will be back for sure”

“My husband and and I loved the big fish and yummy chips also. We felt it was well worth the money.”

“The most authentic Chinese spicy hotpot. We ordered combined dishes to have more varieties... 10/10 taste and service. Chilli oil broth and the golden fish broth are the mist try!!!”

“"Rainy days are simply perfect with a plate of sizzling stir-fried noodles and the sautéed preserved pork slice with hot chilli pepper! The combination is absolutely heavenly - the chewy noodles soak up all the delicious flavors, while the savory cured meats add that special umami kick. Every bite warms you up from the inside out, making it the ultimate comfort food for gloomy weather. 10/10 would recommend this amazing pairing to chase away the rainy day blues!"”

“The taste of foods was just amazing. Stunningly balanced flavours. Perfectly cooked. Descent sized portions. We had to wait a bit longer than what we were expecting to get our order ready in a busy Saturday night but it was worth it. Music playback was not a perfect match with the ambient but still okay. Friendly staff. Definitely will come back.”

“We had a delightful dinner at Siamese Doll recently. The flavours were amazing, portions were generous, the service was attentive without being overbearing. We had 2 entrees, 4 mains and a round of drinks for $60 a head, which I thought was great value. Great to see a busy restaurant on a Wednesday night! They also dealt with my daughter’s nut allergy seriously and respectfully. We’ll definitely be back again soon!”

“Okay just get two dishes. Samsun jjajjangmyun (seafood version of the black bean noodle) and chapsal tangsooyook (fried pork with sweet and sour source but the chapsal (sticky rice) version . We got the smaller size this day. These are our go to. We have tried some of the other dishes but these two are worth it!”

“Perhaps my most favorite meal during out trip to New Zealand, so good we had to make a special drive back before our flight home to eat here again. The Yang Rou Pao Mo is delicious comfort food, the hand pulled noodles are fantastic. All the sides - wonderful. The folks who run the restaurant - delightful. It's not very often I run into restaurants specializing in Xi'an or Shaanxi style foods, so this one was a wonderful surprise to happen across in Auckland. Thanks for the wonderful dinners!”

“Took my kids here and was impressed with the quality of the dumplings and pork buns. You get less (10 I think)than usual but the dumplings are bigger and have a lot more flavour than usually offered elsewhere. The pork buns were great too - not too much dough and lots of filling.”

“I had a lot of memories here. I miss that happy time. Enjoy the food and the atmosphere.”

“Been the go to as long as I can remember good prices yummy food lots of it can't go wrong with sun ma”

“Lovely restaurant with authentic food (according to the chinese person that had lunch with me). The Noodles and Beef was great and the Cured Port and Tofu was fantastic. Definitively worth a visit. Some spicy choices also.”

“You can't make an assumption based on the Google review. We went to this takeaway place and tried the food. It's good. It's worth the price for sure. Roast and Twice cooked pork are always my favorite orders. Not a fan of fried chicken. BTW, sry Cruise, like your smile. Again, you can't make a judgment just by the review. Go there, try it, love or hate, your choice.”

“Chicken fried rice with chicken fry….awesome combo and yummy taste.. staff are very friendly..”

“Veggie chow mein is off its head. Delicious. 5 stars”

“Me and my family been coming here since I was a little girl, also worked here part time during my high school years. I love the food and love the owners - They are genuinely kind and caring people, really cares about the food (and their customers) and its integrity. We still get takeaways from here after 20 years!”

“The braised chicken feet here are really delicious. They taste different from those in many other places and are definitely worth recommending.”

“The food was absolutely delicious! Every dish was bursting with flavor, and the presentation was beautiful. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant, and the staff were friendly, welcoming, polite, and professional, making us feel right at home. Thank you!”
