    Service and food quality good. Some may find portions small but I prefer it this way. Highly recommend the crispy crab and Shanghai noodles and rice.

    The Sweet and sour pork is a bit tough to chew. I expected that to be more tender. However, the rest of the food was really lovely.
    Chinese Cricket ClubResponded on 15 May 2024
    Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for offering your feedback. If you were unhappy with the sweet and sour pork, we apologise and appreciate the information. We certainly want our food to be tender, and if we weren't meeting that expectation, we're sorry and will definitely do better in the future. On a positive note, we're glad you liked the other dishes you tried and hope you'll come back soon because the next time you do, we intend for it to be an even more enjoyable event for you. Warm regards, Luca Scapolan Restaurant General Manager

    Food was really lovely and nicely presented but quite expensive given the very small portions provided. Not somewhere to go if you are hoping for Chinese dishes like sesame prawns on toast, crispy seaweed etc - very refined menu. Staff were friendly and efficient when you could actually get the attention of a waiter/waitress. We had to walk over to someone to get the bill despite us having our coats on. They could have done with an extra person on the shift and more attention paid to patrons in terms of scanning the room.
    Chinese Cricket ClubResponded on 15 May 2024
    Hi ShelleyJ, I appreciate your feedback. I'm really pleased that you liked our presentation, but I do want to apologise if you found our portion sizes unsatisfactory. You might have a point about our menu offerings, too. We certainly don't want our talented, hardworking kitchen team to deliver dishes that aren't what our customers envisioned. But I'd be neglectful if I didn't seize on your feedback about our service, as welcoming as it was. We look forward to seeing you again. Warm regards, Luca Scapolan Restaurant General Manager

The staff here really tries their best to make everyone feel at home, so it is really gratifying to know that their efforts paid off.
