China Bar

If i could rate it lower then 1 star I would.!!! My partner and I came to Fitzroy on Labour Day and whilst there were a number of restaurants closed, China Bar was open along with the Mexican and Pizza place across the road. We ordered quickly and sat outside waiting for the entree. After a while we noted that other diners who had ordered well before us, were still waiting for their orders. It appeared that the staff were too busy with online orders and therefore diners had to wait an inordinate amount of time. Eventually, after 30mins, the entree and one of the mains arrived. We continued to wait for the other main and two diners near us had lost patience and were questioning staff. After a further 15 mins my partner enquired as to the whereabouts of the missing 2nd main. The 2nd main finally arrived and it was basically, overcooked BBQ pork, badly cooked rice and bland bok chuy. The 1st main was just noodles, and 3 prawns struggling for relevance. DO NOT BOTHER WITH THIS PLACE as it suffers from: - rude staff - overpiced food not fit for a dodgy food court The 7/11 further up the road would be better value and definitely quicker service.

AVOID this place. They run a daily specials menu at a great price, however they make you wait for your meal because you're not paying full price. The place was 1/4 full and the chef did not bother. So I left. Without having my meal. And won't be back ever. Really really poor attitude by the chef/owner. The staff were ok - they were trying to hurry the chef up but obviously he didn't care much for them either. Spend your money elsewhere.

Me and my partner went here for some cheap eats for valentines. We went to the one in the city and loved it. we thought we could trust China Bar for it's good quality at a good price. However, this was not the case with this one! Every dish we ordered was bland as!!!! I hadn't eaten all day and we'd spent a hungover day at the zoo and was looking forward to a treat afterwards. It was SO disappointing, and also it is MORE EXPENSIVE than the city China Bar and the quality is wayyy worse! I will not be going to this one again. Very disappointed.

I arrived here at 10.45pm first I was told that they are closed then another Lady came and she said we close at 11.30pm if you are done by then come in. So we did ordered our food at 11.05pm the guy from the cash register came to my table with the eftpos facility to make a payment while we were eating. We finished our dinner at 11.15pm had so much left over food asked for a container to take the left over food the guy told the waitress 30cents each for a container after spending $194.48 for dinner. My husband told him off. Some of the dishes were good, 2 of our dishes were really bad BBQ Pork $35 was bad and price was charged more that it was on the menu, Lemon Chicken was bad too what lemon that lemon dip was all sugar. We always go to China Bar in CBD and food is always good. I will never go here again got ripped off and cash register person was so rude. Good customer service by the waitress.

Absolutely woeful!!! It is not OK to be rude to customers, prioritise your Uber Eats customers and make your in house diners wait 45 minutes for an overpriced inedible basic tasteless chewy bbq pork and rice. Where is the zero star rating??? First time l’ve been compelled to write a negative review but it is 100% warranted!!! Please review your systems and processes immediately. Arrived hungry. Left hungrier and out of pocket 😞😞😞
