We ordered Mongolian Lamb, Satay Chicken and Vegetable fried rice. We went there without reservation and we were lucky to get seat. But recommending to have a reservation before you go. It was a nice place and little bit noisy but acceptable. Food was so delicious. Staff is really friendly and helpful. We will definitely go there try something different

The photo of the salt and pepper quail has two pieces missing, it looked and smelled too good. My son and I had to taste it before the phone was taken out for the . And yes, it did taste as good as it looked. I must say, salt and pepper quail is my all-time favourite. The owner Monica was so lovely, we had a great time chatting. Melin uses only the best top-quality ingredients, all dishes were fresh and delicious. Next time I am going to try their Vietnamese cuisine, the price was on the high side for a local Chinese restaurant. I wouldn’t call it a take-out place, as it is set up for a comfortable dine-in meal. If you are a local I would recommend you try it. It was a very enjoyable experience.

Delicious food and very hospitable staff in a warm, cosy environment. We brought an elderly relative and asked for specific veggies to be well cooked. They accommodated us and cooked everything to perfection. Other places are not wiling to do that and it means so much being able to take a relative to lunch.

Prices are definitely value for money with decent size serves. There was 3 of us & we shared Beef & Black Bean sauce with fresh vegetables, Crispy Chicken with Plum Sauce & a bowl of Coconut Rice. We finished off with Deep Fried Ice Cream Balls with Coconut. This is the 4th time we have been here & the food has always been fresh & tasty.

Dine in is expensive, the wait time for dine in is 45mins-1hr wait. Take Away orders are abundant, slowing down dine in. It is more expensive than others around the area.
