The Golden Drum

"Love this place. Great food. Spicy but very tasty. Large serves mean I take some home and have pushed new tastes on friends and they agree, tasty & different. The chilli in one of my pictures was NOT needed"

"Visited here a few weeks ago with my friends for the first time. They were so busy but waiting time wasn't that long. The food was good, my friends enjoyed it a lot. However, it was a bit difficult to communicate with a few workers."

"The ambience was great. This restaurant has private dining rooms that can accommodate about 10-12 people. That’s what we booked for a farewell dinner. Food is tasty which I acknowledge. However, after eating I was thirsty like nothing and ended up drinking 2 jugs of water. I felt the food has MSG or similar that opened up the taste buds. Even another friend that attended the dinner confirmed this. Hence why I’m giving 2 stars. The portions are generous and they came quickly after ordering."

"Been here a few times. The first time we really liked it but the following times were just ok-ish. The food isn't bad but inconsistent (our favourite dry fried chicken with chilli was battered way too much this time, more batter than chicken, was the same they used for the honey chicken despite the fact they're completely different dishes). And everything costs so much more than other restaurants (paid around 120 where we'd pay around 80 at other places normally)."

"Such a hidden gem, regret that we didn't make it earlier. This is absolutely the best Chinese cuisine in Canberra! Those freaking traditional tastes were just amazing. All dishes look spicy enough but actually are just flavourful, not like totally burning sort of spicy, which is what I prefer. Plus, they can all be considered generous portions as shown in the images, super affordable and super delicious. Highly recommended for all to try out what Chinese cuisine is supposed to be like."
