Most authentic Malaysian Chinese. Service was excellent and the price is so reasonable. Our family friends from Dunedin simply enjoyed every bit of it

Visited on a whim, we ordered a mix of food from their lunch menu (cheaper price) and normal menu. Place does pick up by looks around lunch, but regardless of the rush, food was served rather quick and so tasty! Will visit again, as the...Laksa was the best I’ve had in the city!More

Over many years, 3 or 4 times a year, always enjoyable. My favorite is the seasonal Chinese vegetables along with Yummy steak on a sizzling platter. Efficient, quick, hard to go past for a quick delicious meal.

Went to celebrate a birthday with family and friends. Ordered and out came the food straight away, which can be good but it made me think it was sitting around. The chicken and corn soup tasteless, which pretty much summed up whole meal. The staff...constantly leaned over and into you with no words spoken. Everytime someone looked finished they took the plates away as well as glasses. It was like they wanted us gone as quick as possible. We had brought a birthday cake. Instead of bringing it out lit with the candles supplied they dumped a large sharp knive, some plates and spoons. Kind of a giveaway.... then proceeded to return with cake still packaged in box. At least they gave us matches i suppose so when we unwrapped it we could light candles. Sadly after the bill was paid and we left i checked it. They charged us $18 corkage for 1 bottle of wine shared between 2. Also as we were paying couldnt help but notice they were hoovering right next to diners, I mean really??? Years ago we enjoyed this place, we will never go back. Pretty sure I never saw a smile from any staff the whole time we were there.More

I had a chicken and corn soup, it was a bit bland, corn lacked freshness. For main I had a Nasi Goreng. This was nicely cooked rice with meat that was perfectly cooked. However, the spice was not fresh and it lacked any depth to...the flavours.More

We visited this restaurant recently and could not fault the food that we ordered. It wasn’t busy but still a reasonable atmosphere. The food was served quickly and was so good! We took our own wine and were happy with the $6 per bottle corkage...charge. Would recommend.More

It is so nice when traveling to visit someone who lives in a town and knows where to find the best food locally and actually where the locals eat- not the tourists! Yummy Chinese Cuisine is such a place and well worth visiting whether you...live in or are a tourist in Christchurch. We ordered 6 dishes and each one was outstanding. No question about it, this restaurant has top quality authentic Chinese food (not some westernized version which has no resemblance to the “real” stuff).More

Following the recommendation our our Inn keeper and Tripadvisors good reviews we ate here, after a long days road trip. We had a large order, as we wanted leftovers for the next night, as Cyclone Gita was approaching. We shared hot and sour soup, wonton...soup, fried calamari, Thai chili pork, crispy chicken and fried rice. Each serving was large and delicious. We shared a bottle of wine we purchased earlier at a winery, being charged a small $2 corkage fee. Donnie provided friendly prompt service and the entire dining experience was fun. The location is inside a strip mall that has numerous ethnic dining choices and groceries adjacent to the lot. High recommendation for a casual relaxed Chinese dinner.More
