Man Tong Kitchen - Melbourne

The restaurant was short occupied. we waited for more than 20 minutes for our drinks. five waiters tried to find a cold bottle of chardonnay and could not so they gave us a “other” white wine. the shares on the banquet were small, garnel were underboiled in the... frits, and the staff was rude. it was the worst experience I ever had in a crown restaurant. I was humble to bring my friends there. never again.

The service here is terrible. Waiting staff does not seem to have the care factor. food quality is below the level and prices are very expensive. avoid them at all costs.

First, this restaurant is not sure covided! they do not practice safe measures and the tabs are literally 1 person apart. they place all their patrons on a side of the restaurant and fill it up instead of scattering around the people... there was an empty section on the front and I have clearly said whether I can sit there because I want to have a quick meal with my children who are very young and cannot be vaccinated. the girl of the reception said that tomorrow it must be prepared for a function and when I left, I saw that there was a table with diners at the front. I was so angry and she had no brain to see that I have 2 very young children. Anyway we ordered many dishes and the only beautiful dishes were the appetizers xiao Lang-Paro and prawn knödel. the rest was so terrible. I come from a Chinese background and my man is Australian caucasian and we both agree that eating was by far the worse Chinese food we cost. I think the food court would have been tastier. you should stop tong, it is operated, drop of space and not safely covide. if they want kovid, they go there. streaked woman at the front counter. they should be a little more sensitive and use their senses a little!

This little stall has prefabricated dips in a young marie. the staff is friendly, polite and helpful. the dishes are colorful, interesting and available from a good selection with meat, seafood and vegetables. the problem I had was that the young boy only kept her...warm, not at all hot.

This is an up market dining experience for dumplings or yum cha. While we expected the pricing to be as high as the quality of the surrounding decor and table settings, we were pleasantly surprised. We ordered short soup, prawn dumplings, chive and prawn, ginger...prawn, deep fried calamari, and others. Service was excellent. Water glasses constantly topped up. Chilli oil and vinegar in small jugs on the table. Food came out hot and fresh, dumplings were very tasty. Probably a bit higher price than you could find in China town, but very acceptable. Calamari was $9, not the outrageous price of $27 for the same size plate at Lucky Chans downstairs.
