What User dislikes about Hong Kong Chef Kotara:
We often visit this restaurant when we're in Kotara, and it's never disappointing. The dim sum is fantastic, and the highlight of this visit was the lor bak goh (fried rice cake with Chinese sausage), which had crispy edges that I love, especially when paired with some chili oil. If you haven't tried it yet, definitely check it out! And don't miss out on the lor bak goh; get a piece or two! View all feedback.

The restaurant's menu had incorrect prices, and they refused to make up the difference. The service was extremely poor.

I ordered takeout and didn’t get what I ordered, got someone else’s order all together.

Male Server was awfully rude.The food was great, however one of the dishes was bad. He said they have never had a complaint before he reluctantly took the food off the bill. The whole time he was serving he was not friendly. Never checked back with the table. Worst service we have ever had.

**Restaurant Review: A Mixed Bag of Experiences** This restaurant presents a blend of exceptional food and disheartening service. While many patrons rave about delicious dishes and a pleasant atmosphere, others have voiced concerns regarding the rudeness of certain staff and the inconsistency of meal quality. Complaints include overcooked, tough meats and disappointing vegetarian options. Despite some patrons enjoying their meals and valuing the quick service, the overall sentiment suggests room for improvement in both food preparation and customer service. For those eager to rediscover Chinese cuisine, the ambiance remains inviting, yet a cautious approach to the menu may be advisable.

The food was excellent, and the service was friendly and attentive. I dined in for lunch, and the price per person was around A$20–40. The atmosphere was rated 4 out of 5.

The waiting times were incredibly long. I waited 25 minutes for my order. Service was for takeout, and it was dinner time.

Had walked passed this restaurant many times and had always wanted to give it a try giving how much I missed Chinese cuisine. Finally did give it a try today for lunch, ordered 1) Special Fried egg noodles which was too salty and wet 2) Salt and Pepper White Bait which was tasteless and wasn't even fried proper as it was all soft and soggy 3) Siew Mai, not sure which cuisine it's from but it's very large in size as compared to proper traditional Siew Mai should be. It sure feels like frozen bought 4) Szechuan Dumplings, didn't had any Szechuan flavour 5) Braised Beef Brisket wanton Egg noodles soup. Beef brisket tasted alright, but the wanton didn't taste like how wanton should be. And the noodle used doesn't seem to be the correct noodle type used Overall experience, disappointed (that I stopped taking any pics). I definitely would not be rushing back again. The only saving grace was nice ambience and polite servers and that's all.

Ordered a fried noodle dish. Noodles tasted very burnt. And meat was fatty. My partner ordered a different dish. Meat had lots of grissle. Don’t order the vegetarian dumplings they are horrible. They took so long to get our drinks that our food arrived. Had to remind them to get them. Also they didn’t have the drink available on the menu that I wanted in stock with no similar substitute. Mentioned the bad meat in the dishes and I was informed sorry that we have a new chef.
