I was curious to see how Chinese cuisine would fare in Newcastle, compared to other cities and Chinois is a solid performer.

Close to Civic Theatre making it a good spot for dinner before a show. Fresh food with plenty of flavour, For entrée try the Garlic Prawns, The best the four of us have ever sampled. The honey prawns, light and crispy, Garlic combination with plenty of protein. Reasonable prices and BYO.

There are not alot of Chinese restaraunts in Newcastle but being the only one in the city it doesn't disappoint. A great range of options with really good prices. It is licensed with a good range of wines and beers or you can byo wine and the food is great. Dad always gets the curried chicken and rice and declares it the best he has eaten. The wonton soup is great and the hotpot really good. Everytime I have been the food does not disappoint . If you want to eat before a show they are fast and efficient.There is plenty of room and is good for families too.Enjoy this good Chinese restaraunt.
