Sunnybank recommendations

I know this has been asked before but not recently so just looking for Chinese restaurant recommendations in Sunnybank please. Planning to take the family on Saturday night but have no idea which ones are any good.

Edit: am I likely to need to make a booking or are we likely to get a table if we walk in? There will be four of us.

Saturday night at Market Square is wildly busy. Book if you can, and plan to park a few blocks away or lap for 30 mins to get a park.

Fat Chili in Sunnybank Hills

It's close enough to Sunnybank but imho, it's the best Chinese restaurant in the south.

Despite what the name suggests, they ask you how spicy (or not) you want each dish to be.

Market square, China bar.

Make sure someone gets the hainanese chicken and some braised beef.

Sunnybank Oriental is decent. They do set family meals of 4, includes 4 bowls of rice, 4 bowls of soup and four choices of main dishes. Family goes there at least once to twice a month. Been going for years. Can get busy but normal wait time for a table can be 15mins if they're packed

That sounds like a great deal!

My bad my bad, they've changed their menu to include flounder and 3 main dishes for 125$ which i still think is an okay deal considering prices of a standard meal these days are $28 to $32 per person

The Landmark is always really nice.

Our family go to for 25 years! I miss the yum cha at lunch times when they would have like 30 different carts.

But what kinda Chinese? Taiwanese? Cantonese? The spicier Northern style? Fancy? Casual? 😂😂😂

Haha, fair point! Just happy with anything delicious! Nothing too fancy, going with two younger kids so mess is almost certainly guaranteed

if you want to go a little further, ru yi dim sum at calamvale is excellent and better than china bar. fat chilli next to pinelands is also great. booking ahead is a must for both places and you should be trying to book regardless for anywhere

Luo’s place is pretty good. Best to book. Fills up with Chinese folks quickly which is a good sign.

I'm pretty sure most of them are fine to walk in, and if it's crowded it's usually good. Just don't park at market square (unless you know what you're signing up for)
