China Red is my “old faithful” and never disappoints:l. The meals are usually ordered via touch screen (great for the anti social! and the food quality is consistently good. Big shout out to Judy at the front who somehow manages to keep everything under control, and is always polite, professional and friendly. Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Loved the Beef in Mongolian sauce, the crispy beef and the Honey chicken. This one dish was something like chicken and nuts in hot chilli sauce or something it was really really good but not for the faint hearted Haha. Just tad bit too much salt in this one. Veggie Dumplings were great and get the pan fried buns because they are soft and yum with the underside crispy having sesame seed goodness. Rice were Meh but didn't matter with all the other dishes being so good. Service was exceptionally fast and the coconut icecream is really good. Wanted the green tea icecream but they were all out.

Food is so amazing The prices made me like I was ripping them off haha Beautiful environment, and so fun ordering off the touch screen at the table. Super happy with this place and I will be going here and nowhere else from now on.
