4 Star Review by Andrew Phelps

Good sized portion of Mongolian Beef - enough for two adults, and the Special fried rice was nice. Lots of people but happy staff.

3 Star Review by Kendon Holland

This meal was one of the most average meals I have had on my trip, dim sims from the frozen section at the super market. Crumb cutlets that you had to peel the burnt Crumb of to eat. Saving grace was the short soup was delicious.

4 Star Review by Lauren Rotondo Wilson

Good honest club Chinese/Australian food. Really enjoyed our honey chicken and special fried rice. And my husband enjoyed the daily roast. Servings are large and I would advise to get in early as the club gets busy from 6pm onwards. (6.15pm on a Thursday night and not a table Left) Very much worth it.

1 Star Review by Olive Mickelborough

Loved the club very beautiful and calming place, food way too slow people were waiting over 1hour for a toasted sandwich not good at all. Our own experience was 1hr 20minutes for a bowl of hot chips, needless to say we ask for a refund and left. The lady who was the cook was too busy looking at everyone, obviously had no idea how to multitask.

1 Star Review by Sandi Langridge

The Chinese is good apparently everything else is garbage, fried to within an inch of its life, dry and digusting. Salad with the Parma consisted of iceberg lettuce 1/4 slice of tomato , a slice of red onion and no dressing. The fishermans basket was even worse overcooked frozen garbage , no salad and no lemon or tartare
