Oriental Impression Grill’s bustling atmosphere caught our eyes as we were driving along Victoria St and we decided to stop for a quick meal. We ordered a variety of small plates to share: Enoki mushrooms 🍄 Pan fried and cooked in with a spice mix of chilli powder, curry powder, cumin, (possibly) red bean paste and sesame seeds. It tasted great. Chicken & Calamari skewers 🐔🐙 were cooked perfectly. Pork skewer was dry and not very enjoyable, luckily we order only one. Doughnut bread was soft and slightly chewy and it had great texture. Biang biang style noodles 🍜 were a little gluggy, still very enjoyable. The chilli sauce was balanced and it complimented the noodles. One thing it bothered us was the fact that despite all dishes being cooked correctly, they all tasted very similar. After our third dish, we started getting flavour fatigue from the same spice mix being used on all dishes we ordered. Nevertheless, great food to eat while drinking beer🍺 Cheers!🍻 Finn Bites dining experience 3.9/5 ⭐️ $ 💵

the best, most chaotic, fun, big energy restaurant. haven’t been to china but I would imagine this feels more like china than it does Australia. it’s fast paced, spicy, you order on a paper menu ticking what you want and you really can’t go wrong. Mandatory order is the chive dish and the sweet roti bread thing. Ppl love the lamb ribs too. any of the skewers are insanely good, super cumin and spice and salt and savory. can’t go wrong. sleeper hit is def the vegetarian noodles. lots of slick oil and spice and greens with peanuts. bouncy and chewy and so fresh. It’s also BYO and we love bringing a fun bottle from Cardwell cellars across the street. Another spot I will always bring visitors. It feels very special and somewhat undiscovered still, almost makes me Hesitant to review it cuz I want to keep it a secret!

This is my second time here. I must say the food standard remains pretty good after one year absence. There is always a persistent queue outside the restaurant during dinner time. Booking is highly recommended for this place. The restaurant serves super yummy grilled food ranging from all kinds of meat to intestines. They have vegetarian options as well. The Biang Biang Mee was superb with the right amount of chili and sauce. I love the ox tongue too. The fried potatoes was cooked to perfect texture. The only thing i didn’t like was the tofu skin with chives where the tofu skin appeared to be a bit tough to my liking. The restaurant is pretty noisy and small but didn’t stop us from enjoying our food. It serves Chinese beers too. I will definitely visit this place again.

Finally I took my mate to try this Chinese special BBQ. Food and the service and the atmosphere was okay as everything tastes a bit the same, maybe they use the same herbs and method to marinade all the meat and seafoods. Please don’t be greedy and thinking that” it’s just -$3 dollars or $5 dollars per skewer. Or not too expensive at all but when u add it up then you will realize it’s quite expensive for Chinese style BBQ. Overall I think it’s okay … average for the taste of the quality of foods. But how come the restaurant is always full and customers are mostly majorly are Chinese. Anyways yeah 👍 I ticked off one of the GO and Try and experience list of restaurants in Melbourne. Thanks

The food at this place is pretty damn tasty. The meat skewers are packed with flavour (the lamb skewers were my favourite) and I really enjoyed the spicy chilli oil noodles. The prices are pretty reasonable and the service is quick. However, the service upon entry was seriously lacking. They don't even take your name for bookings. They just have a list of phone numbers written down which they cross off as people arrive. When we arrived, we had a tick-box menu thrust into our hands and we had to stand waiting in the middle of a bustling, over-lit restaurant because there were no tables available despite us booking ahead. Thankfully, the food made up for it in the end.

This place smells so good, so many different skewers to try. The highlights were the lamb skewers, prawn skewers and scallops. The Enoki was a bit too oily and the pork belly was surprisingly dry. The skewers are grilled with the light chilli seasoning, but there's other self serve sauces and spices. The experience is probably better for a group, some dishes have a minimum order of two. The ordering system is a printed menu and you write in the quantities you want. Then they bring out the dishes or handfuls of skewers to put on your tray.
