Reviews
"Had an absolutely blast of dinner at China Doll. Food was amazing (as an Asian, the food here is almost to perfection to me!), service was good but they were very busy, I do not blame them for any mistakes (which they didn’t but just slightly slow speed). The atmosphere is great because it’s located at the wharf and has a view of the city skyline. Overall, very impressed and for the price, definitely worth the money."
"Absolutely loved our dinner at China Doll. The service was top-notch from start to finish. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made us feel incredibly welcome. They went above and beyond to meet all of our needs and ensure we had a fantastic dining experience. We opted for the $65pp banquet menu and boy, were we blown away. Every dish that came out was a culinary masterpiece. The flavours were bold, the presentation was impeccable, and each bite was a journey of taste sensations. From the melt-in-your-mouth beef curry, to the succulent duck and watermelon salad, crispy pork belly, and fluffy zucchini fritters, every dish was a true delight for the senses. Not only was the food delicious, but the portion sizes were also incredibly generous. We left feeling pleasantly full and satisfied. The restaurant's attention to detail was evident in every aspect, from the carefully curated menu to the beautiful plating. Overall, our experience at China Doll was nothing short of exceptional. The combination of outstanding service and an extraordinary banquet menu made for a truly memorable dining experience. If you're looking for an unforgettable culinary adventure in Woolloomooloo, look no further than China Doll. You won't be disappointed!"
"We got the $79 banquet and I highly recommend it. Food was delicious and servings were just right. The only issue was with dietary requirement, we had 2 people with dietary requirements and this was communicate when making the reservation but for the main dish this was missed. We checked with the waiter and he wasn't aware that pork isn't halal but they were able to provide substitute. We asked if the dessert was halal and the lady who served us seemed annoyed to answer but due to previous incident we had to make sure."
"I recently had the pleasure of dining at the China Doll Restaurant in Woolloomooloo and it was a wonderful experience. The food, atmosphere, and service all exceeded my expectations. We ordered the Fried Tofu with Five Spice Salt and Ginger Soy, Duck Pancakes with Hoi Sin Cucumber and Leek Whites, and some dessert recommended. The atmosphere of the restaurant was incredible. It has a beautiful waterfront location that offers stunning views of the city skyline. The seating was comfortable, and the decor created an intimate and cozy ambiance. Lastly, the service was exceptional. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel welcome."
"The food was good, but was it good for the price? No. You could find better at a Chinese restaurant for less. It was fusion but did not really feel like it. The display of the food on the plate was alright if that is what you want to pay for. The service was alright but did feel like they were giving a little attitude while serving. The atmosphere was a bit rowdy, but that wasn't much of a problem. Overall, it was a decent experience."
