This review is for Shanghai Noodle House, Sunnybank QLD

verified email - 04 Dec 2010

Smaller restaurant located in the Market Square complex amongst many other Asian restaurants. This one specialises in Shanghai cuisine. Cheap prices, fast service, cosy atmosphere, great food. Not the typical dishes you see at Chinese restaurants, so you wont' be finding any sweet and sour pork or beef in black been sauce here.

Almost close to authentic Shanghainese cuisine. Definitely try the fried rice cakes which are a specialty!

Approximate cost: $8 - 10

All-you-can-eat Chinese style restaurant located in the Sunnybank Plaza. Huge selection of Asian dishes, Aussie roasts, seafood, and desserts. Food is good, although nothing outstanding. Very average typical food court quality food. Everything tends to be on the slightly more salty side. I can only assume that is their way of having patrons eat less?

Unfortunately this is one of the only Chinese buffet restaurants in Brisbane, so love it or hate it, you'll be going back every time you think of Chinese buffet!

Approximate cost: $25

This review is for Pho Hien Vuong, Sunnybank QLD

Best pho in Brisbane!!! Cheap prices, although prices went up by 50c in July 2010. Service is fast but inconsistent. Either they will miss you and you will have to call them over, or they will attend to you straight away. Food comes out fast (of course depending what you order). Self serve water up front.

Boss is tight and will not refill your tea flask. He is also hesitant when giving out extra garnishes. But in saying that, just go for the pho. $10 for a large bowl which is approximately 2 litres.. lol

Can't really fault this place. Amongst the other restaurants in the most popular complex in Sunnybank, this has got to be one of the best restaurants. HUGE selections of dishes to choose from. Cheap prices in comparison to the restaurants around it. Both the interior and exterior look like an upmarket restaurant, but the prices reflect those of a casual eatery.

Fast friendly service from the boss himself who will invite you in and talk to you. He will come by to ask if you are enjoying the meal. Great tasting food. A fusion of Chinese dishes and Malaysian dishes. Strangely enough, the menu is almost identical to Little Singapore which is located about 50 metres away.

Very busy and popular place. Definitely one of my favourites!

This review is for Oshin Sunnybank, Sunnybank QLD

Located at the Woolworths shopping complex, this restaurant is a slightly more upmarket and expensive restaurant. Serving fresh sashimi and sushi as well as a full selection of Japanese dishes.

All you can eat buffet on Wednesday nights are great, as there is a wide selection to choose from. Sundays offer all you can eat shabu shabu (hot pot).

Slightly more expensive so definitely not a cheap eat or casual restaurant. Both interior and atmosphere are more formal.

Approximate cost: $15 - 30

Very VERY popular restaurant amongst the Asian crowd, and always packed out with the younger crowd and university students. Typical Chinese/Hong Kong menu with many many many dishes to chose from. Daily lunch specials on the walls. Set lunch and dinner meals. Great prices, generous servings. Fast fast fast service which I can only assume everything is pre cooked and just warmed up? lol Free self serve tea and water.

Opened til late each night, usually around 2am. So if you are after a decent and cheap bite late at night, this is the place.

This review is for Little Hong Kong, Sunnybank QLD

Typical Hong Kong style bbq restaurant. Prices slightly dearer than the average when compared to other bbq restaurants in Sunnybank. Small but cosy inside dining area. Too small without enough personal space to have a conversation, plus it gets loud inside.

Unfortunately service isn't that great, as the waitresses are overseas students with limited English and tend to forget parts of your orders. Food service is very fast, but drink bar usually closes earlier which is annoying when you want a drink with your meal at night.

Good food, self serve sauces, self serve free water, average price closer to the expensive side, average service unless you speak Chinese. Can get extremely crowded.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Antarctic Circle, Underwood QLD

Upper scale Japanese style restaurant with top quality produce and an interesting menu. This restaurant specialises in Japanese hot pot also known as shabu shabu. Each patron receives their own personal hot pot instead of typically sharing one on the table.

All hot pots can be custom made by choosing your own stock base, then choosing your preferred meat, which comes with vegetables, then adding any sides and extras. Premium seafood consists of prawns, scallops, fish, pipis, and squid. Premium beef comes with slices of wagyu beef, full of marbling (although only 6 slices).

You may also try their cook-it-yourself steak which is a generous piece of Wagyu beef on a sizzling hot stone brought to your table, which you cook yourself to your liking.

Great customer service and very nice atmosphere.

Approximate cost: $20 - 40

This review is for Vietnam Corner, Sunnybank QLD

Menu seems to be identical to another restaurant across the road. I can only assume they have the same owner. However this seems to be more pricey in comparison to the other Vietnamese restaurants in the same area.

Typical Chinese/Vietnamese restaurant with an extensive menu. Personal recommendation is the special beef noodle soup!

This review is for Seoul BBQ, Sunnybank QLD

Extremely popular Korean bbq restaurant with a great selection of dishes on offer. Although generally speaking, Korean bbq does tend to be more costly, it is well worth the experience cooking the meat and vegetables by yourself to your liking. The sauces are delicious and the sides are a wonderful compliment. Free refills of rice!

Personally I would recommend the cold noodles from the summer menu. Parking a little hard as it is located in a very small complex amongst other restaurants.

Approximate cost: $10 - 20
