We enjoyed our lunch - service great , food good. Ambience needs to be improved, maybe some background music, I felt like I was at a road side cafe.

Our first visit to Surfers Paradise in 20 years and we had to go back to Pancakes in Paradise. The restaurant has not changed at all and the pancakes and service are still top notch too. All you can eat pancakes are the best value around. Loved it!

Suzanne and Teddy are fantastic hosts as always! We were in one of the private rooms and 8 of us thoroughly enjoyed every single dish of the Peking Duck Banquet for my Son's 13th Birthday. The food is up there with flavour and portion size and is as good or better than any major capital City in Australia. Have also had the salt and pepper mud crab and it's the best I've ever had. Well done Suzanne and Teddy for putting the GC on the map for brilliant Chinese food. cheers Matt
