Old Street Box Hill

The taste was good. The service was good. The stinky tofu is freshly fried. It's OK. The green beans are delicious and spicy. Stir-fried yellow beef is OK. The rice noodles are delicious, and the chicken and shiitake mushrooms are generous. The portions of each dish are sufficient. There is room for improvement. Friends who like Hunan food can try it

These dishes transported us straight back to our hometown, Changsha. Every bite captured the true essence of Xiang cuisine, rich in flavor and tradition. I especially loved the stinky tofu — perfectly crisp on the outside and irresistibly fragrant. The stir-fried pork with chili, sweet rice cakes glazed in sugar syrup, tender stir-fried pork kidneys, garlic sprouts tossed with dried tofu, and the delicate black fish fillet with seasonal vegetables — each dish was bursting with authentic taste and warmth.”

Nestled in a cozy corner, this chill restaurant offers a relaxed vibe perfect for unwinding. The menu features delectable squid dishes, expertly prepared with bold flavors and fresh ingredients. Each bite melts in your mouth, making it a must-visit spot for seafood lovers seeking a memorable dining experience.

HI recently dined at this amazing restaurant and was blown away by the rich flavors and authenticity of the dishes. The spicy stir-fried green chilies with pork were packed with heat and flavor, and the tender meat was perfectly balanced by the seasoning. The second dish, topped with vibrant red chilies, had a deliciously aromatic spice that enhanced every bite. The food is an exciting journey for the taste buds, especially if you love spicy cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone craving real, bold flavors!

The restaurant is not too big but comfortable. There are enough space between tables. Services is good and dishes come out quick and fresh from the kitchen. We tried 4 dishes including Chinese style yogurt. They are all traditional Chinese food from north city. It is very spicy but tasty. The deep fried tofu is crispy and match perfectly with the garlic soy sauce. The braised duck is very tasty and good with cold beer ! The lamb port is a bit spicy but good for winter to warm up your body! We will definitely come back again !

We’re from Perth and absolutely loved this restaurant! The Hunan dishes here are incredibly delicious, with fresh and flavorful chili that packs just the right punch. Highly recommend the stir-fried rice noodles and spicy tripe both were outstanding! What made our visit even better was the owner who was so warm and welcoming. Her hospitality truly added to the experience. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!
