Excellent Chinese food, expecially the mud-crab. We took the full banquet and felt the price was very reasonable for the quality of the meal. $65 for about 7 courses including mud-crab and duck. Definitely worth a visit. The restaurant is award-winning and deserves the recognition. More

My partner took me to Zen for my birthday. The food was Ok but the athmophere really let them down. Really noisy, it look like a well decorated canteen, but nothing more. More

3 of us family went there for lunch after reading some good reviews. It was towards the end of lunch service on a weekday and the restaurant was almost empty, but we were sat rather squashed at a small table with 3 chairs in the middle of the room by some wall. I asked if we could move to a... More

Service was reasonably good. The food however was disappointing and could have been a lot better for the price they were charging. More

One of the best chinese meals ever - strongly recommend the Crispy Duck, as well as the Beef and Scallop dish. Really attentive service, and a great atmosphere in the Chinese New Year celebrations. More

Went here on Chinese New Year so it was very busy. We each ordered a dish and shared so got to try loads of dishes. Some were very good. Others were good. Very good service from the staff. Quick to get drinks and checked on us regularly. They made a mistake and brought us an extra dish by mistake but... More

We like to go to high end Chinese Restaurants, it's the service, the food, the fine wine that normally makes these occasions memorable. This experience was memorable for anything but food, wine and service! Admittedly we were lucky to get a table. The place was buzzing, so we were offered a table in the atrium/outdoor area. The sign to the... More

Enjoyed a fabulous meal again at this very well run restaurant which offers the whole gambit of top class Asian cuisine and service. We started with our favourite Peking Duck Pancakes followed by a Cubed Fillet Steak with Szechuan Peppers, Coral Trout in Sweet Corn Sauce, plus a plate of Garlic Spinach and individual bowls of Boiled Rice. The meal... More
