Roast & Noodles 328 is a family-owned restaurant located in the heart of Darwin's shopping district, serving authentic Asian dishes since 2007. The menu features a variety of Asian delights, including the city's signature laksa soup filled with sweetly roasted pork, thick noodles, and a perky sambal chili hit. Customers have praised the quality of food and the cozy atmosphere.
The roast duck here is very nice. They offer it with rice, soup or dried noodles. The price is also very affordable.

You would think you are eating food from a high end restaurant in Sydney or Melbourne when you sit down to enjoy your food from Roast & Noodles. It’s honestly amazing.
We wandered into the galleria on our way to the waterfront before Roast & Noodles opened for the day- as soon as I saw all the roast ducks hanging up I knew where I was getting lunch ! We ordered the large combos- one roast pork and one roast duck and we loved absolutely everything about our meals.
The roast duck was amazing, absolutely beautiful and the roast pork was succulent and full of flavour.
Chicken and corn soup also came with Kori meals and it was absolutely lovely, one of the nicest souls I’ve had in a long time, the flavour was incredible.
I also ordered a serve of the dumplings, one thing I’ve noticed in Darwin is that fried dumplings are huge here- double the size of the ones we generally get back in Brisbane or from the Asian supermarkets, and the dumpling sauce is spicy and bursting with flavour.
It’s a shame Roast & Noodle isn’t open for dinner because I’d be back for sure !!
The flavour of the duck roast was delicious and the quantity is sufficient for a hungry person. Choice of rice or dry noodle or soup noodle.... tasty. Staff is efficient, fast service and clean. Popular with locals and tourists. Central to arcade, walking distance to bus stop.
Delicious yummy dry noodle with roasted pork belly! The food was delivered so fast. Only 7 minutes and my food was ready. The staff was also friendly. Thank you
Okayy, trust me friends. They have the best roast duck noodle in town with affordable price. They have so many options from noodle to rice and I highly recommend you try the dry noddle. So delicious.
As a Hong Kongnese, I can vouch for the food here is authentic and fantastic. I tried the beef brisket noodle, and the bbq pork, roast pork, and roast duck. Let me tell you it's not easy to make these dishes good consistently, and they have obviously mastered the trick. It looks very clean. And the store layout is well thought out. They serve the food very quickly and it even looks good!!!
The food was good, abit too salty, service was fast. Atmosphere was casual dining was we were in a food court in the city. We ordered roast duck with rice and green veggies.
This restaurant serves Cantonese or Hong Kong Style roast duck, barbecue pork etc. It is really good. Highly recommended. If you look closely at what the diners in this shopping centre are eating. I countered that more than half of them have bought their food from this outlet. It speaks for itself.

The food is rather good, I do enjoy a succulent Chinese meal, I ordered spicy salty squid, a vegetarian Buddha bowl and pork crispy platter. The flavours textures and food was on point, made with quality ingredients and crafted with care from a chef who obviously knows what he's doing.
Friendly staff that were helpful in making suggestions when making my order and just a clean cosy atmosphere. Would recommend.
They have a nice selection of exotic cocktails to try to which was something different.

I highly recommend this place for a gathering! The food is delicious with a mix of Vietnamese and Cantonese flavors, and there’s something for everyone to enjoy. The prices are affordable, so you can order a variety of dishes without overspending. Plus, the cozy atmosphere makes it perfect for spending time with friends or family. Great choice for a relaxed and tasty group meal!
Sliding doors moment. If not to stop to look at a building opposite, the bossman wouldn't have had an opportunity to invite us in. Absolutely one the best laksas I've had. The heat in it was spot on, for me, and the sauce, noodles, and pork was divine. The duck pancake was also the best. I'm not normally a duck eater, but this was cooked just right. My wife can only have GF and that was no issue. Lots of options.
Just moved to Darwin and this is on the list of local places to visit and visit and visit again.
Yum!
Service was friendly and inviting. Restaurant had a nice feel a decor and playing recent music with nice table settings.
The siu mai and wontons were so goooodd!!!!! Honey chicken was also battered, seasoned and cooked deliciously with a great tangy sauce. The fried rice and Mongolian lamb were a good serving size but lacked depth and I would skip the Barra next time. Would come back and order heaps of entrees as they were good 👍
Had their soft shell crab (entree), Peking duck three ways (poultry), kinto pork spare ribs and spicy salt squid.
The soft shell crab was okay. The legs were good but as you keep eating to the main body, you can taste a really fishy smell that not even the dipping sauce could cover.
The Peking duck three way was amazing. The pancakes were warm, the duck meat was good (though the skin could be crispier) and the sauce was amazing. The duck soup is really nice to drink. The duck fried rice is what you would expect of a normal fried rice.
The kinto pork spare ribs is the star of the dish for me. The ribs were fried to perfection and the sweet tomato sauce goes so well with it. Would definitely recommend this.
The spicy salt squid is the star of the dish for my partner. I loved it too. I'm glad it had a slight kick to it as I couldn't see much chilli on it and thought it was going to be a plain salt and pepper squid dish.
Overall fast service despite being full house. The waiters were friendly too.
Love Lazy Susan’s. Have visited a few times for dinner; the food is always fresh and tasty, and the service is top notch.
Today we visited for Yum Cha (Sunday brunch). We booked a table at 11AM (booking is advised).
Thoroughly enjoyed the brunch experience, food was delicious (as always). Highly recommend the Spicy Salt Squid and the Fried Wontons. Also loved my coconut crushie (natural), if you want a non-alcoholic drink; it was very refreshing after walking around in the heat.
Looking forward to our next visit! Thank you.
Fantastic restaurant! Cocktails were very clever, a must try. Ordered chicken wings and softshell crab starters, and pork, ribs, duck curry, and beef for mains. Food was perfect. Best restaurant experience during our Darwin holiday, highly recommend!
How good that a restaurant does evening yum cha on a Sunday? The crispy, roast pork was sensational and I’d go back just for that. The page is absolutely packed so make sure you book a table.

Cantonese restaurant
Loong Fong Seafood Restaurant, situated within the Darwin Airport Inn, is a spacious dining establishment that serves up traditional cuisine from both China and Australia. In addition to its indoor seating, the restaurant also offers an outdoor dining terrace. Renowned as one of the finest Chinese eateries in Darwin City, Loong Fong boasts a delectable menu featuring dishes such as Steamed Fish with Ginger and Shallot - known for its freshness and lack of fishy taste.
Loud group of 7 on a Saturday night. Fabulous customer service, amazing food.
Helpful knowledgeable staff who could guide our decision making and even though we were the only table left they did not try to push us out the door! The whole fish of the day (red emperor) was a stand out dish and for a group of 7 where only one person likes tofu, the Pie Pa Tofu was amazing! Thanks Connie we will be back again soon.
Robyn W — Google review
We visited this restaurant after hearing great reviews, and we were not disappointed. The ambiance was great, with comfortable seating and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, and they made sure that we were well taken care of.
We started with crab and corn soup and steamed oysters with ginger and shallot. The crab and corn soup was more of a chicken corn soup with very few pieces of crab meat. However, the oysters were delicious, and they were some of the best I've ever had.
For mains, we ordered steamed barramundi with vegetables and small seafood fried rice. The barramundi was cooked perfectly and the serving size was generous. It tasted great with the garlic sauce. The fried rice was decent, but it was not as good as the barramundi.
The staff were lovely and warm, and they were always willing to help us. The price was a bit higher than other Asian restaurants, but it was worth it for the quality of the food and the service.
Best Chinese restaurant in Darwin City. Steamed Fish with Ginger and shallot is so good. Not fishy and very fresh. Their mud crab is also fresh and they have a tank of crabs for display inside the restaurant. Pie Pa Tofu is a must try. Very unique and tasty. The staff and owner are very friendly and welcoming. It tastes like home cooked food , full of warmth. The price is affordable as well. It's definitely a place you can't miss !!!
Came in about 6pm and it was quiet and empty. Ordered Sweet corn chicken soup and Lemon chicken. Soup was great but the lemon chicken was amazing. Still crispy batter despite the sauce on it. Tasted amazing. About 7 pm it started to get very busy and loud.
Was craving Chinese cuisine as a tourist and chanced upon this place.
Average in taste and decent quality.
Sadly, not much of Asian vegetable dishes to choose from. Waitress also doesn't speak Mandarin.
I got the food here takeaway, twice, out of convenience since I was staying at the Novotel. Speed and service was a 5/5, but the food is quite expensive for it being oily and subpar; vegetables in the stir fry a little raw, and just not a worthwhile satisfying meal. I finished my meal regretting I had gone here.
For future reference, next door inside the Mercure there is an awesome poolside bistro which is much better.
The best meal in Darwin!
After spending a week having average meals, we finally found an amazing feed at Loong Fong.
We shared hand made dim sums steamed, prawn toast, satay sticks, Mongolian beef, Szechuan chicken and pork and black bean. All were a taste bud sensation yet the Mongolian beef was a stand out along with the chefs satay sauce.
I was traveling with a qualified chef and food reviewer, and both gave the chef their thanks.
Even if you are a local, this place is worth a trip to the airport to experience. Along the pool at the Novotel.
Dropped in on a whim for a quick meal. The whole experience was a pleasant surprise, the service was good, the food was excellent and the price was more than acceptable.

Nestled in the lesser-known corners of Australia, Regent Court Chinese Restaurant stands out as a delightful culinary find. With an extensive menu that caters to diverse tastes and dietary needs, this eatery serves up dishes cooked to perfection. The addition of chili oil is a treat for spice enthusiasts! As the second Chinese restaurant in Katherine, it boasts a spacious layout reminiscent of classic suburban dining establishments with decades of history. Despite initial hesitations about Australian-Chinese cuisine, visitors quickly discover that Regent Court exceeds expectations.
Absolutely love this place! The food here is full of authentic Chinese flavors and suits my taste perfectly. Every dish is freshly cooked, well-seasoned, and beautifully presented. The stir-fries are bursting with flavor, the soups are rich and comforting, and the portions are generous. The staff are friendly and attentive, which makes the whole dining experience even better. Highly recommended for anyone who loves genuine Chinese cuisine!

Vegeterian dishes can be made vegan but very limited menu. Food taste really amazing, and great service too.
When you're traveling through the remote parts of Australia you're not necessarily thinking you'll find the best foods. Especially as a vegetarian. So my delight when finding Regent Court was evident. With a delicious and large menu of options, you can get food for all palettes and dietary requirements. The food is delicious!
Service is no fuss and simple. Decor not too different. Also, and somewhat strangely they wouldn't serve tap water though.
Had dinner here yesterday. Ordered the salt and pepper fish. As they normally use basa fish for this dish, I ask for the fish to be swapped with barra. What finally arrived was anything but salt and pepper fish. It was just chunks of battered barra deep fried with onions and minced garlic. It was just the same cooking style of sweet sour fish, without the sweet sour sauce..! As being someone from asia, i do know my salt and pepper fish. Just a waste of money and time.
Need a quiet place to chill out? Lovely old school decor of a Cantonese restaurant. Bought mostly vegetarian and was great. Veggies perfectly cooked and had plenty of chilli oil on the side for me. My mum had the quail which was also yum as. Sorry only a pic of the food half eaten as a gulped the first half. A welcome relief to roadside pies and chips 🥰
Food was simply dilicious. Service was great. I would say its the best chinese restaurant i have tried in Katherine.
Although we would normally avoid Australian-Chinese restaurants, in Katherine there were few other options. Unable to get a table on our first night due to it's great popularity, we returned (with a booking) with low expectations and initial amusement at the youth of the school age serving staff.
This amusement changed to admiration as we were served with friendliness, interest and a willingness to help.
The food arrived quickly and was surprisingly pleasant, with very generous servings. Pretty good for a local restaurant anywhere, and a gem in Katherine with good prices.
Pleasantly surprised to have such good Chinese food in Katherine! We ordered the Singapore chili crab (blue swimmers), and the flavours were really good (would be perfect if they served fried mantou with it to lap up all the gravy!) The combi fried rice was yummy too! Generous portions, good food at good value. Only let-down was the deep-fried ice cream, which was soggy. Overall a good experience tho (good service too), and i would come back if i ever visit Katherine again.

I would like to take a moment to share my experience at Dragon Court Restaurant during our visit today. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, and the staff presented themselves with professionalism and genuine hospitality.
When placing our order, they thoughtfully explained how many dishes would be suitable for our group, which we truly appreciated. After serving, the staff checked in with us to ensure everything was to our satisfaction and to see if we needed anything further. The attention to detail and level of care provided was exceptional.
A special mention goes to the manager, Nisha, who managed the team and the overall dining experience remarkably well. For our first visit, the service went above and beyond our expectations. Truly outstanding customer service, keep up the great work!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Perfect Dining Experience
Me and my partner went for dinner at Dragon court restaurant truly exceeded my expectations. The food was fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented.
The staffs were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and professional. Some of the best customer service I’ve experienced — it really made the meal special!
On top of that, the ambiance was warm and inviting — perfect for a relaxed and enjoyable meal.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for great food and excellent service in a lovely setting.
Great service! The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient. The food was good, but it was quite standard. While everything was prepared well, it didn't stand out or offer anything unique. Still, a solid choice for a reliable meal.
I went there for my yearly birthday dinner. The service was great but the food was not very good.
When ordering I asked for the wings but they didn't have them even though it was on the menu, therefore the substitute was pork which was pretty bad. I also ordered the spring rolls which were strangely watery inside but the waitress asked if they were greasy. Again not a good choice. My main dish was the orange chicken which was unevenly cooked where the larger pieces were doughy (not cooked inside).
Definitely not impressed and will never go back again.
The best part of the meal was the bottled sparkling water.
The next day I went to Happy Garden for a tenth of the price and I was very happy.
I really was expecting better food. The strange thing was the questions from the staff like what exactly did you not like. I felt like a guinea pig for the restaurant which I paid $70 bucks to be experimented on.
Dragon Court you must do better.
This is situated within the Casino and is very cosy. Best to buy just a few dishes and share them amongst a group which we didn't realise when we dined. It was $200 for 4 of us with drinks and we didn't finish all our food.
The service was a little slow, we had reservations, but stood out the front for about 5mins waiting for someone to seat us (maybe some CCTV feeding into the kitchen from the front door or a bell might be a good idea?). Would go again, but order less next time.
Dragon Court is truly an outstanding restaurant. Located inside Mindil Casino, it offers dishes with excellent presentation and remarkable taste. The staff provide attentive and warm service, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. I will certainly return to this restaurant in the future.
Great food and service.
Crispy beef and pork ribs top dishes.
Great cocktails too.
keep up the good work Chef Yuke and Manager Nisha. Highly recommended

Nestled within a shopping center, Hingston Chinese Restaurant has been delighting the taste buds of Darwin locals for over two decades. This beloved eatery is renowned for its authentic Southern Chinese cuisine, offering a menu that features mouthwatering dishes like salt and pepper squid, satay king prawns, and roast pork in plum sauce. Diners rave about their fried rice, often hailed as the best in town.
This is the kind of Chinese food you dream of. Having lived in China, this is great Southern Chinese cuisine. Unfortunately I didn’t take enough photos, but rest assured, the Salt & Pepper Squid is sensational, as was the Roast Pork in Plum Sauce. I’ll definitely be back to try some of the other dishes. Plus the owners are lovely people, and made us feel extremely welcome in their restaurant. 5 stars from us Gweilos.

The food are really delicious, I like the duck and wet fried rice. Perfect.
A bustling neighbourhood Chinese restaurant, like you used to find in other major cities years ago.
Fantastic food, efficient no frills service.
As another reviewer noted, you do pay a premium for food here but I felt like it was worth it and a full house on a Wednesday night suggested the same.
Expect long waits when it's busy.
Have heard from my friends abt this restaurant and today I tried it, and it's the best!! Especially their Hokkian Noodles & Spicy Salt Squid, delicious!! Also, their super big bag crackers only for $3,love it!! Definitely will come back!! 😁👍
We had a great vegetarian lunch. Mixed veg In Oyster Sauce, Tofu with veggies and vegetable fried rice. It was one of the best Chinese meals we have had with good size helpings. The eat in menu is a little more expensive than the web menu which they said is the takeaway price. Very good. K&L
Friendly staff, great food. Bit on the pricey end
Been having take out from this venue for past 3 years and always been good but yesterday food was terrible rice and main dishes were very salty to the point we struggled to eat them , paid 65.00
Which is very expensive for 2 mains and 1 rice which most of it ended up in the bin, if I was in their restaurant it most definitely would of been sent back. Will not be ordering again from here.
Pick your game up Hingston, serving food like this will not do you any favours.
I don’t get it. 1 hour wait for takeaway. This wasn’t clearly communicated either as it sounded like 15mins so were surprised to hear about lengthy wait for food.
Don’t come here if you want food quickly. Seriously. Even the busiest of restaurants generally let you know clearly when there is a 30 minute wait.
But ask yourself if the food here is worth waiting an hour for.

Happy Garden is a Chinese eatery that caters to both casual and formal dining needs. It offers a wide variety of traditional Chinese dishes, ensuring customers are satisfied throughout the day with its takeaway service. The prices for their generous portion sizes are reasonable, and the food is flavorful. The medium-sized servings leave no wasted space as they are filled to capacity. Although the chop suey was slightly overcooked, the rice was fluffy and mildly sweet without being overly salty.
Full portions well priced and flavorsome. Medium size was filled to the brim with no wasted space. Chop suey a little over cooked, rice was light a little sweet and not trace of salt noticeable, finally the spicy pork was in a thick soybeans paste. Recommend during visit at Parap Market.

Never have anything bad to say about their food and staff honestly love eating here or take away so worth it
Food didn't taste or look fresh. Raw onion in the prawns, other vegetables watery and tasteless. Not what we are used to getting from this place, gone downhill a lot
Awful. We ordered from the menu and asked to dine in. $35 for oily rice and sweet and sour chicken. I would have thought I'd get a proper plate and cutlery! 🤔
Called in today to get hubby a take away prices are way to high not affordable
Plenty of parking. Fast service and you get what you paid for. Delicious and fairly priced.
Good was absolutely awesome. Great service and we didn't have to wait too long to be served.

The newly opened restaurant has a seating capacity of 25 - 30 individuals and is conveniently situated in the heart of the Northern Suburbs, making it easily accessible from nearby areas. Ming Court provides an exceptional dining experience with its delectable Chinese cuisine that is rich in flavor. The staff members are known for their amiable and affable nature. Regular patrons appreciate the Spicy Salted Bean Curd/Tofu, which is considered to be the finest vegetarian option available in town.

Food is nice but the service is pathetic. First rang and told 45 mins. I said, I’ll call back in a couple of minutes with my order. Then told 1 hour wait for pick up. So I turned up at correct time and told another 10 minutes. It’s been 20 minutes and still waiting. It better be worth it. Also no discount for cash $107, just opened the cash drawer and took the cash, no GST collected. Don’t ask for discount, you won’t get it. Total wait 1 hour and 25 minutes since ordering!!! Doubt we will be back!
Ordered the Special Fried Rice, Sweet and Sour Pork and the Beef and Black Bean, my trinity of Australian Chinese food and it was on point and would definitely go back
Bloody good Chinese food
Juicy and crispy
Roast pork delicious so was the sweet and sour chicken
The service is really good, very friendly
The prices are fair, almost every main dish is 20 bucks and they are massive portions
I highly recommend this joint for either takeaway or dine in. It’s a classic Aussie Chinese joint that doesn’t disappoint.
Very good local Chinese restaurant. It is located in the casuarina region in the suburb of jingili. Take the bus from casuarina to airport and stop at Puma petrol station. A little walking distance. Family run business, manager is very friendly and witty, staff are nice, food is delicious. Popular takeaway food. Nice simple humble setting with tasty dishes. BYO licensed. Good for a date night.
Just average level, order three different dishes and the taste are similar, it’s like spend triple times of money and enjoy one dishes.
Ordered take away today was disappointed
1. $20 or more advertised free delivery... no driver so couldn't deliver... false advertising
2. On line menu said $20 for sweet & sour barramundi but was charged $22 as was told price had gone up and website not updated... false advertising
3. Said food would take 45mins but took an hour....unsatisfactory
4. Ordered 2 dishes but one container was smaller than the other... wondering why. Also mentioned not too much cauliflower or broccoli but the mixed veg was full of cauliflower 😞😓 as in photo. The sweet sour barramundi had only a limited amount of vegetables as well 😞😓
Don't think we will be going back there and will not recommend either.
Food is so great if compared to other Asian restaurants in Darwin. A must try for everyone and staff are very friendly.

Red Lantern is a popular Asian restaurant in Darwin known for its delicious noodles. Many consider it to have the best noodles in the area, making it a great budget-friendly option for Asian cuisine. Customers praise the wonderful food and service, with particular highlights being the home-made tofu and flavorful laksa dishes. While takeaways are common due to its busy nature, recent experiences have been fantastic. The restaurant also surprises customers with cute little gifts on special occasions, adding an extra touch to their dining experience.
Wonderful food and service!
We tried this restaurant for home delivery for the first time.
The staff member who took our order spent time enquiring on what we liked.
I tried their home made tofu (beancurd) and it was THE most delicious I have tasted since travelling to Asia.
The laksa's (vegetarian and combination) were flavour full and delicious.
The food arrived in 30 minutes, piping hot and fresh.
We will be back again and again.
Our compliments to the staff and the chef.🙏

Really disappointed in our take away dinner tonight. The honey “chicken” barely had any chicken in it and what was there, was dry and terribly overcooked.
Satay combination was pretty much all Celery and carrot.
Won’t be back
Ordered a wonton noodle soup and chicken noodle soup tonight and honestly never been so disappointed. It tasted like nothing. No flavour in the broth or in the wontons, it was like the food was dipped in boiled water and added spring onion and fried shallots for garnish. Tried making a dipping sauce to mix in for flavour but didn’t do any justice.
Do not recommend buying any soup here!! 👎🏼
Very nice restaurant in the centre of Palmerston. Food is very good. However, the crocodile meat is tough, Fired ice cream is delicious. If you want grog, bring your own.
We’ve ordered through uber eats we ordered special fried rice sweet and sour pork combination of black bean sauce when we get the orders they put it in the Cole’s bag? Really? And the sweet and sour pork soggy and leak looks like someone tasted it first before us we won’t be ordering again with this mob
Hi red lantern. Not sure who came up with the seafood laksa recipe but why so many fillers? Please make it authentic and take out the vegetables that should not be in there and spice up the soup. The soup was pleasant but lacked flavour and spice. The fish didn't taste great either. The rest of the seafood was good and the noodles cooked well. Darwin has a high standard when it comes to laksa and unfortunately, this is the worst laksa I've ever had. Sorry!
We had dinner here last sunday, my wife had a wanton noodle soup and I had seafood laksa. Both soups taste blant, especially the wonton, I want to fix the dumplings taste for my wife so, I asked the staff for a slice of lemon and soy sauce because dumplings is always nice with dipping sauce and I was surprised to know that the chefs has no lemon in the kitchen. What an absolute joke for a kitchen not to have a lemon. Chef, if you don't want to provide your guest a lemon, you should at least make your soup base better.
An Asian institution in the heart of Palmerston. One thing that was a real stand out for me was their laksa. All the great flavours you would love from a regular laksa however with a twist of sweetness from the use of onions makes this definitely top 5 in Darwin. One of the rare moments where I take a photo after eating and not before. Family friendly, relaxed dining experience. Staff are very friendly and eager to please.

New Shanghai Restaurant & Takeaway is a beloved gem in Katherine, known for its delightful array of Chinese dishes that consistently impress. The fried rice and chow mein stand out for their unique flavors, striking the perfect balance without being overly oily or salty. With reasonable prices and quick service, it’s an ideal spot for lunch—offering great deals like medium-sized meals at $12 and large ones at $14, which even include a complimentary drink!
Had many meals here during my stay at Katherine. The lunch set meal was great - comes with a free drink. Food comes in Small, Medium and Large portions. Freshly cooked - hot and delicious variety. Staff were exceptional and friendly - also very patient when we were choosing what to order. Lovely place, highly recommend.

Unfortunately my experience didn't match most. I ordered the Beef Chow Mein for takeaway. Now, while the beef was cooked well there was barely any of it. Also, I thought Chow Mein is supposed to have round noodles, but mine had the flat ones. But worst of all the meal had no flavour - I had to add soy sauce to get anything resembling flavor. I've had food court, hot box Chinese meals tastier than this.
The taste of the food is great. The fried rice is nice. The food is not oily, too salty or too sweet. The chow mien is very unique and tastes great. The price is reasonable and the service is fast. It's a much better Chinese than the other one in town.
The place looks tired and they use carpet in the dining area, very unusual for a takeaway place.
During lunch, they have a great deal, medium size for $12 and big size for $14 plus free drink. Probably the most descent place to have lunch in town. They use a proper plate if you dine-in and the portion is huge. You can still do a la carte for lunch too.
Ive been coming here for over ten years and sometimes once a week. Their seafood laksa should win the Laksa Festival award! Hot deliciousness is welcome on a wet season day as much as a windy cool dry season day. Nice flavour and excellent consistency, there recipe has not faltered for years. I use this laksa as a standard against all other laksa I have and the New Shanghai’s is always the best! It’s light, flavour country and certainly filling. Other dishes have generally been good to excellent and they tailor make a chow mein to our exact liking. Great service and family run business. There’s a reason I keep coming back over many years… they must be good!
Amazing service, very friendly and attentive. Classic Chinese, sweet and sour pork was a hit.
Definitely don’t recommend. I ordered a satay chicken with beef fried rice. The satay chicken was essentially a flavourless soup consisting of boiled chicken pieces, a few slithers of carrot and a couple pieces of cauliflower. The beef fried rice is not worth spending the extra couple of dollars as it was pretty much steamed rice with some omelette, diced carrot, some peas and a few thin pieces of boiled beef. The Mongolian beef was much the same soup consistency with some pieces of broccoli but it at least had flavour. Their menu is definitely overpriced for the quality of food on offer.
Standard Cantonese food. Can't fault the sweet and sour pork, prawn fried rice and sizzling beef. Veggies were well cooked too. Quick and pleasant service for a reasonable price.
Take-out was great. Staff were friendly, helpful, gave good recommendations. Service was very quick on a Saturday evening. Price was reasonable for the quality. Portions were a good size. Will definitely get take-out food here again.

Zhen's Corner is a highly popular takeout restaurant in Darwin, known for its affordable and delicious food. It offers a buffet range that caters well to individuals on a budget. The portion sizes are generous, and customers can enjoy their meals in a busy yet friendly atmosphere. The large portion option includes a soft drink of your choice at just $14.99.
The female owner is not only beautiful but super kind. I had issue paying with local money, she was patient and kind enough to help with me currency exchange, and gave me a lot of tips of adapting life in Australia. Not to mention, I love the food here, it's tasty and healthy. I highly recommend everyone come to enjoy the food:)

Disappointing meal. The dim sum were soggy and the meat varied in colour. The bbq pork soup was very salty and the quality of the meat was poor. For the price, this was a very disappointing Uber eats experience.
Delicious food served by friendly/ attentive staff. There are a lot of options and the portions are great. Speedy service without dropping on quality, will definitely visit again.
Food leaves a lot to be desired. I don’t know whether the cooks ever taste test their food? I literally tasted no flavour in any of the dishes. The honey chicken tasted only of oil… no honey. The Mapo tofu was so far from traditional; it had no Szechuan in it at all. Just very BLAND.
Very ordinary food at a pretty high price. We won’t be returning.
3stars for affordable food and 1 more star for portion serving. Buffet range is acceptable for a person on budget in Darwin. Highly frequented by locals, this place is busy, mostly take aways so u should be able to sit down and enjoy your meal. Large portion (14.99$) includes a soft drink of your choice. Walking distance to city, not far from bus route, Zhens corner is a place to try for a filling meal. Great fast service with a smile.
3 stars for convenience and friendly, timely service. Sadly I found the curry quite tasteless and had poor quality meat. I think for the same price I would rather eat at the cafe next door.
Order Chicken Singapore Noodles & Spicy Chicken Wing via menu-log, To be honest there is no any test on food, my wife cook better than this, west of money and obviously food as well. Never try again.
Great little Asian food with in-dining and takeaway. Had chicken with ginger and spring onion. Quick and delicious. Recommended

Golden Star Kitchen is a highly recommended Chinese restaurant that offers delicious Peking Duck, which is definitely worth the drive. Their servings are generous, including a grilled duck served with tortilla-type wraps and dark sweet sauce, a light soup without overpowering flavors, and wide rice noodles with duck meat. One order of Peking Duck can easily feed two or three people. It is advisable to pre-order the dish and book a large table as it may not be suitable for just two individuals.
Duck with an accompanying noodle soup was delicious. Adding the duck juices and the local chilli oil made for a wonderful meal. Setting is basic with quintessential red stools. Perfect for a budget feed and an escape from the chaos from the food hall opposite

Happy to have golden star for home cuisines! This pipa tofu is sick. It’s basically dried tofu that is mixed with shrimp or other ingredients. It’s perfectly cooked. Delicious. We ordered the fried noodles and beef, which are also tasty. Service is fast even in their busy hour. Will definitely come back to miss home.
My favorite Chinese restaurant in Darwin. As a Chinese, the dishes in this restaurant are traditional and yummy with nice staff. My family always go there for dinner. Highly recommend its’ Peking duck, roast duck and fried rice.
YUM!!!!! An impromptu stop after spending the day exploring Litchfield, and we were NOT disappointed! A group of us ordered so many different dishes off the menu, and while some were better than others, all dishes had positive feedback. We will be back next time we’re in Darwin!
One of the best Chinese restaurants in Darwin. I strongly recommend their roasted duck (the picture is chicken, but duck is better) the source is rich and flavorful! Also their sour and sweet pork is well cooke that pleasant aftertaste in your mouth👍
Stopped in as someone had recommended this place.Ended up ordering the Pork Spare Ribs in Peking sauce & veggie fried rice. It was full of flavor, great portions and friendly family ran restaurant. I’ll def be back, sooner than later.
Updated TRY THE SPICY BEEF soup, oh it’s so authentic and delicious.
Best Chinese food in darwin. Their braised pork is a must. The eggplant is so good as well. I'm a regular and this is the best Chinese food I've had in Australia. 👍👍their fried rice is also big portion and smells so good. Don't underestimate the look of the restaurant. The food is the bomb.
Delicious and worth the drive. Peking Duck! Huge serving of three dishes. Grilled Duck with tortilla-type wrap with dark sweet sauce, light soup (no salt or overwhelming flavours, and wide rice noodles with duck meat. One Peking Duck dish is enough for 2 or three. I ordered the pips beans and had to take it home. Pre-order the Peking Duck and book large table, a table for two will not be enough. BYO possible, great for catching up or Foodie dates.

Pink Chopstix Waterfront is a serene restaurant with amazing service and quick food delivery. The location offers a peaceful waterfront view, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing dining experience. The menu features delicious options like soft Bao entree, satay skewers, sweet sour pork, and whole crispy snapper. Customers have praised the delectable mud crab served with NT Sauce, which resembles Singapore Sauce.
We tried the mud crab which to be honest even though it's very tasty is a lot of work for not much meat. Bit of confusion over seniors discount but that was honoured. Food was actually very good.

The food was cooked to perfection and ample portions
Presentation of the food was fantastic
And the sea breeze and ambient lighting was perfect.
Highly recommend the duck 3 ways! It will feed a family! Great value for money and great flavor.
We will be back
Everything about this place is amazing, the pink aesthetics, the food is so tasty and the beautiful presentation. The staff are incredibly friendly. Try the mango tini cocktail it’s so refreshing. Overall 10/10
A memorable dining experience and the perfect way to wrap up our 5-day road trip from Alice Springs to Darwin!
The mud crab with Singapore chilli sauce was absolutely delicious — cooked to perfection with bold, rich flavours. Presentation was equally impressive, complete with delicate carrot garnishes that added a touch of artistry. Combined with the serene views and warm, inviting atmosphere, the entire meal felt truly special.
Staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome. At $120/kg, the price is on the higher side — likely due to the prime location — but the quality, taste, and presentation absolutely justified the cost.
As a lovely bonus, we also received $20 off for posting this review. Highly recommended, especially for a special occasion.
Overall, wasn't a bad experience. The staff were friendly and service was pretty good. Location was really nice, great spot for a sunday evening dinner!
Unfortunately the food quality vs price is where it fell over. We ordered the sizzling beef, honey chicken, pork dumplings and 2 serves of steamed rice. Both the mains were tasty, but nothing amazing or different. The dumplings tasted good but were quite dense (only got 3). Steamed rice was very close to being under cooked, nearly crunchy, and may have been sitting out for too long as it was very dry. Perhads I should have tried the crab or something but went for the more standard options.
Certainly not saying the food was bad, but for the price vs what you get. A local Chinese shop does the same stuff but cheaper.
Food was delicious but was just Chinese takeaway level. I loved the peking duck and bao, duck soup was delicious. The crackling pork had a really strong porky smell so I don’t recommend it. Good service and smiley staff 🥰, good location too!
First time diners & as we left we booked another visit,
The food was terrific, as was the service & atmosphere (outside). There were 6 of us & we each ordered a dish & shared. That way we got to try many dishes & all were excellent.
Amazing food and beautiful atmosphere. Staff are friendly, only let down was our fried rice was forgotten and arrived much later after we had to follow up a couple of times.

When in Katherine, make sure to visit RJ's Bar & Loong Fong Restaurant for a delightful dining experience. The restaurant offers a diverse menu featuring both Eastern and Western cuisines, ensuring there's something for everyone. Guests rave about the generous portion sizes and recommend trying the delectable beef ribs. The attentive staff adds to the overall pleasant atmosphere, although some suggest that adding background music could enhance the ambiance even more.

If you're in Katherine for only one night, eat here. The food is smashing. They have an east & west menu, I've ordered from both of them and have never been dissapointed. They serve ample portions too. The beef ribs are particularly good. Full marks.
We went there because the host where we were staying said this restaurant is Amazingggg!! But sadly it didn't meet our expectations. The service was slow, the food mediocre and the prices high for what was provided. The decor is somewhat dated so unfortunately overall it was not an enjoyable experience.
Amazing food - have the pork short ribs, absolutely fantastic food. Quality and relaxed setting
Great food. I had crispy beef with some sort of chillie sauce. Amazing.
Seriously awesome meal, the spicy salt squid was a real hit. Will be stopping in any time I come to Katherine
Nice venue, great food and friendly staff. Steak was cooked to perfection.
The food was good but the service was so slow, it was a bad experience over all.

Use to love the dishes
Now there is no meat and no veggies. Pay more and get less
One dish had 3 bits of meat with 1 tiny bit of broccoli rest just under cooked Noodles.
Pad Thai was flavourless and chicken under cooked
Was stuck for something for dinner so gave this place a shot had good reviews from friends. Got in just after opening ordered yummy noodle 3 meat combo, and spring rolls, the food was fresh, hot, tasted great,.large portion value for money. Staff were professional and polite. If you are after a quick meal for the evening give this place a go hopefully you will not be disappointed.
Lots of Asian dishes available to choose from. Busy, efficient and friendly restaurant. A few seating facilities. Vegetarian Singapore noodles, was ok ($12.5). Dumplings noodle soup is more flavorful (14$). You need to ask for the vegetable plate (15$) is great and healthy. Good for date or hangout with friends.
We ordered Pad Thai expecting a delicious meal, but what we received was far from it. Despite the quick 5-minute preparation, the dish was a major disappointment. It was 80% noodles, with the other ingredients barely noticeable. This was one of the worst Pad Thais I’ve ever tasted—definitely not worth the money.
Amazing as per usual would also like less spicy options but very amazing food
I ordered Tom Yum Soup & Nasi Goreng by delivery. It is sooo nice!! And the portion also big, so worth it!! The delivery process also very easy! Will definitely buy again :)
i ordered the pork and egg noodles, it had barley any pork and a piece of metal in my food, very disgusted. usually come here but never again.

Happy Garden is a charming restaurant and take-away spot located in Parap. The establishment is known for its fantastic food and decent service, offering ample portion sizes whether you choose to dine in or take away. It's renowned for serving some of the best Chinese cuisine in Victoria, QLD, and NT, with dishes like honey chicken, green vegetables in oyster sauce, and wonton soup being favorites among patrons.
Amazing food, great service and great prices! The NT news is wrong, THIS is the best laksa in Darwin!

I wish I could give 0.
Disgraceful. Ordered laksa and was given a Chinese soup. Honest mistake no problem but this was in a plastic bag so not noticed until I went to eat at home. Called to get replacement and berated by staff who admitted they had given the wrong order but asked that I take the noodles and veggies out of the soup and then into a fresh laksa soup after I drove the 15 mins to get it. Not willing to give me the replacement laksa soup with veggies and noodles. Insane. Then spoke with manager who had similar argument. No problems with stuffing up an order, but to get angry on the phone, while admitting you know you got it wrong and then not replace is disgraceful.
Lovely little take away and restaurant in Parap. Service is decent and food is fantastic. Whether a sit down meal or a take away lunch, these guys feed you well.
You'll not go hungry as portion sizes are ample.
The best food court Chinese in Victoria, QLD and NT. Actual Chinese ready to eat, without sacrificing texture or taste! Well done.
Great food, great service, good value for your money
best Chinese food in Darwin. Favourite dishes are: honey chicken, green vegetables in oyster sauce and wonton soup.
awful! the way how their worker treat customers (probably not all, but me myself suffered twice), unacceptable attitude of a particular male worker which is disrespectful toward me! Oops Chinese...nothing to say...I swear never come bank and never recommend any of my friends!
I just recently got food poisoning from eating their chicken (that's all I ate that day, before I got sick), had to go to ED because of it.
Won't be going there again.
This was the Cas store.

CHINA Bar Darwin CBD is a popular spot in the city, known for its delicious Chinese food and great selection of milk tea. The location at the end of a shopping mall makes it convenient for visitors to stop by for a meal. Customers appreciate the fast service and friendly staff, particularly mentioning Anusha as a standout team member. Some recommended dishes include roasted duck, chicken feet, prawn dumplings, and the 3 mix with dry noodles.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at China Bar Restaurant, and I must say it exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment we walked in, the staff were welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. The atmosphere was vibrant yet comfortable, perfect for both casual meals and special occasions.
The menu offers an impressive variety of dishes, from classic Chinese favourites to modern Asian fusion. We tried a selection of food each dish was bursting with flavour and beautifully presented. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the portion sizes were generous.
One standout feature is their late-night service, which is perfect for a satisfying meal after hours. The restaurant is brand new and well-maintained, with efficient service that never felt rushed.
Whether you’re craving a quick bite or a full feast, China Bar delivers consistently great food and a positive dining experience. Highly recommend

China Bar offers an extensive menu, featuring everything from dim sum to barbecued meats and rice dishes. The food is freshly prepared upon order, delivering an authentic wok hei experience. Today, I tried the sweet and sour pork with fried rice. The fried rice was fragrant with egg and each grain was perfectly separated, showcasing high standards. The portion of sweet and sour pork was generous, with a crispy exterior that paired beautifully with the tangy sauce—absolutely delicious. My only minor critique is that some pieces of pork were a bit too lean; using a mix of fatty and lean pork would enhance the dish even further. Overall, a satisfying meal❤️
Great elevated interior and authentic Chinese cuisine. Lots of great options to try, and the bubble tea drink store attached is an excellent addition.
The service feels minimal, quick and straightforward. No complaints here - staff were friendly and cleared empty plates. Prices across the board are higher than average, and with card / weekend surcharges it can be expensive.
We tried the beef and veggie stir fry and rice dish, which could use a bit more umami on the beef, but overall delicious.
I got the small combination BBQ with roast pork and roast duck. I highly recommend trying their roast duck - perfectly done, crispy flavorful skin and tender juicy meat. I paired this with the veggie fried rice. Some of the pork had less crunchy crackling, which may be due to the savory sauce it comes with that it absorbed.
We also got some drinks from Chachago - Iced Osmanthus Oolong, Strawberry Fruit Tea with Milk Foam and Popping Pearl and a Mango Yoghurt Tea. All were delicious. Osmanthus Oolong is more of a traditional-tasting tea, albeit very refreshing.
China Bar offers a well-designed, spacious interior, providing a comfortable dining environment. The food is of good quality, though slightly on the expensive side. Additionally, there are surcharges applied for both weekend dining and card payments, which may catch some off guard. The service is decent—not exceptional but adequate for most diners. A standout feature is the wide variety of milk tea flavors available, although the prices are a bit higher compared to the taste and quality offered. Overall, it’s a pleasant experience with some room for improvement in terms of service and pricing.
Staff is very nice. Menu is amazing. Price reasonable. Only problem the restaurant is too cold for me. I wanted to eat fast and leave.
What a wonderful first impression! We thoroughly enjoyed the seafood fried kway teow and roast duck with rice; both dishes were delicious and excellent value. The smoky kway teow was delightful, and the roast duck boasted a crispy exterior and tender interior. While a slightly bolder marinade would have been preferable, it was still quite good. Adding some chilli shrimp relish would further enhance the flavour. Well done!
Just came from the restaurant. One of the restaurant you need to visit when you are in darwin. Usually i order Fried rice but i order something different today. As you can see everything taste really nice and looking real good 😋 will definitely come back
Food is abundant and great tasting, our serve was quick although the restaurant was busy. Must try crispy pork, roast duck and passionfruit tea!

Good prices. Good delivery. Average food. Fried rice very salty. Mongolian lamb didnt have much taste to it and neither did the beef in black bean. The only thing that stood out to make known which one was which was the black beans. Otherwise neither of them tasted anything like they should
Don't waste your time. We are regulars here and tonight we were so disappointed the meal was inedible. I phoned up to express my disappointment and the worker just said new management.
We got sweet and sour pork and it was 90% batter, 7% pork fat and 3% pork meat. The sauce tasted like pure tomato sauce nothing sweet and sour about it and it was runny not thick and glazy. It was inedible and I hesitated feeding it to my dogs.
The peanut satay tasted like peanut butter mixed with water. It was as thin as water and had no flavours at all except a slight taste of peanut.
The fried rice was the best part about the meal. I should of just flushed my 40$ down the toilet.
Food here used be good and consistent, over the past 3 months it has become far from that I just ordered a laksa that is more a noodle soup probably a packet the chicken definitely is not chicken! Never eating here again. Putrid
Unfortunately average. The vegetables were really good I would almost give a four star just for that but the sauce and meat tasted cheep.
Had Mrs Wong last night and it back to it's best. 12 months ago was disgusting couldn't eat it. Very pleased with the food.
Very close if you live in Stuart park/ gardens area, excellent food, excellent prices, home delivery, one of the best undiscovered Chinese eat in or takeaways in darwin
This was a five star rating but since new management it has gone down hill 😫 please get the old cook back I love my Wongs it would be a shame to see those good recipes go to waste 😤
