Brilliant hidden gem of a Hunan cuisine restaurant. My wife (from Hunan) and I visited this restaurant and were surprised how very Authentic the food is. Felt like being back in her home town. Definitely coming back. Serving sizes were big we couldn't finish, But they offered take away containers. So if you're in the hunt for real Hunan Cuisine this is definitely the place to go, and we've tried Hunan food all over the city.
Delighted by Authentic Hunan Flavors in Frankston! I recently discovered a gem of a restaurant in Frankston that brought back memories of the authentic flavors I enjoyed in Hunan. The dishes are truly a taste of China, and I can’t express how thrilled I am about this new addition to the local dining scene. The stinky tofu, often considered an acquired taste, was an aromatic delight that I couldn't resist having for two meals in a row. Each bite was a nostalgic journey back to the streets of Hunan, capturing that distinct taste perfectly. Finding authentic Chinese cuisine of this caliber in Frankston was unexpected, but incredibly satisfying. It’s wonderful to see such genuine flavors represented here, and I couldn't be happier about this culinary discovery. If you're a fan of real Chinese food, this restaurant is a must-visit!
Thank you to the staff what a lovely evening and a perfect meal I felt like I was in Hunan eating my favourite dishes the services was fantastic and the food was amazing thank you for an excellent meal
I was sceptical at first of the odd dishes because I'm not used to traditional Chinese but wow I'm so glad I had a go. I honestly can't wait to go back and try all the menu now.. Such fresh clean flavours. Fantastic service and great value for money with huge dish sizes.
We went there with a group of 12 of us for a birthday dinner. The food was delicious, authentic Chinese flavours. We will be back soon
Food so good we forgot to take photos :) authentic and homely style Chinese restaurant! The prawn and corn dumplings are delightful! The salt and pepper calamari was definitely a joyful twist!
I couldn't be happier that I've found this gem! So so sooo very tasty. Spicy, smokey *chefs kiss* I will most definitely be returning to taste more
After not having much luck with Chinese restaurants in the Peninsula, we decided to try this restaurant. My husband and I were thoroughly impressed by the authentic flavours and hospitable service. Will definitely return to try other dishes from their huge menu!
