The mixed entree was especially tasty, with huge and flavorful dim sims and crispy spring rolls that stood out. We also shared dishes like sizzling Mongolian lamb, satay chicken, seafood combination, and Mee Sing Special, all of which had their own unique tastes and were clearly cooked with care. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Though the restaurant is small, it is very comfortable.

BYO, cash or card, no drama with splitting bills.

It brings me back to the days of my youth in Wollongong when going out to the Chinese was as multicultural as you could get in those days. I love Mee Sing. I love that it exists in Lyneham. I love that it's been in the one family for over 50 years. I also loved my very tasty food on this occasion. But it needs to lift its service a little. The order time of just over 15 minutes is too long ... especially when no water was provided at the first instance with the menus. The drinks order seemed to have been forgotten until i gently reminded them.. I was impressed with one of the waitresses though ... I guessed she was part of the family. Let's clone her efficiency some more please!

It's also been there since 1965 and hasn't lost all its Chinese restaurant kitschiness which is the cherry on top for us. We love Mee Sing!

The food is fine, suburban Chinese, but not great.My partner and I go to Mee Sing about once a month for a convenient local Chinese meal. Tonight we had nice dim sims, garlic prawns and Char Kway Tao. We asked for some chilli sauce, and a small saucer was provided.Then the bill included $2 for chilli sauce. When I paid the bill I said I shouldn't be charged for chilli sauce as every other Chinese restaurant provides it for free. The waitress then had to call for the manager. She said they had to charge for it, but on this occasion would subtract it from the bill.This restaurant is run by Australians...and we all know that they don't know how to run a real Chinese restaurant. They tried to gouge an extra $2 for a tiny dish of chilli sauce. The whole bottle costs about $2, so why try to eke out a few extra bucks from regular clients?Apart from this issue the restaurant is ok. But not special.So from now on whenever we get the urge to go to Mee Sing we will think again. Very disappointing.
