    Ginger Beef, in my opinion, offers the best American-style takeout Chinese in the city. You won't be disappointed with the menu whatsoever. Obviously the ginger beef is great, and we also like the beef/black bean which comes with chunks of zucchini and other veggies. That said, their popularity has really exploded and it can be pretty difficult getting through to them to place can order sometimes. The phone will just ring and they'll hang up. I can't fault them for that; but perhaps hire more staff!

    Do note that their cash discount doesn't apply to combo orders, orders with a coupon, OR delivery in fact. If you aren't big on spring rolls, then your best option for value is to order a couple of menu items and use one of the 99c coupons found on their website.

    My best friend encouraged me to try Ginger Beef Express. He even recommended what dishes to order. So I waited until 4:05 to place my order as this shop opens at 4pm. I was info that my order would arrive in 40 minutes as I had one of the first orders of the day. My order did not arrive until 5:39pm. Don't know why it took an hour and a half but what can you do? The 2 dishes and steamed rice were so cool that I had to reheat them in the oven. Will I try this restaurant again? I honestly don't know. Maybe after I've forgotten about how this mediocre experience fades.

    Don't order from here if you want your order to be done right. The paper outlining our order was right, but the contents were missing one of our 5 dishes and another dish was completely wrong.

    They agreed to deliver the missing and incorrect items, but when we called back an hour later they admitted they never sent any body...

    Decent food, abysmal service.

    They forgot an item that I wanted the most. They didn't even notice because I didn't get any calls from them and I paid for it. I've always eaten Chinese Food before and their ginger beef is not good. No wonder there's ALWAYS no customers every time I pass by here. Tried this place once, NEVER coming back again.

    This is my local go-to Chinese takeaway place! I work every weekend and as a result, am often working tired/hungover and in need of Chinese food at the end of the day.

    This place isn't open for lunch, but they open at 4pm which suits me just fine to grab a takeaway dinner on the way home. Best of all they have some combo deals which come with chicken fried rice, mixed veggies, a spring roll and a choice of four meat options for $9.95 plus tax or $12.95 plus tax for two meat options.

    It's westernised Chinese but it's fresh, tasty, cheap and consistent. I've only had the combo with one option (mainly ginger beef but I also tried the honey garlic chicken) and it's always been great. Plus it comes in a foam container that separates the food.

    I recommend phoning ahead as it always takes about 20 - 25 minutes for them to prepare.
