Sampan House, Dunedin, 64 St Andrew St

The menu is extensive, with something for everyone. The food is fresh and delicious. Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommended.

Service was exceptional as the owner explained everything about our hot pot meal. How to cook, when to cook etc Plenty of meat and vegetables to cook. Also the Chinese tea was lovely and refreshing.

This is from my time in Dunedin and using zomato but due to death of zomato wanted to put this review somewhere. Hope Sampan house is still serving the goods. Update 12/7/19 ordered the red roasted pork belly and am I so glad it comes with a bowl of rice, and the portion for the price is pretty generous and very similar to the special rice dish of mao 's braised pork belly that chopsticks have. Taste wise a sweet sauce but nothing spectacular, tasty, but I would 've liked more sauce. The meat was tender but slightly more bouncy and firm, and could 've done with more flavour. Compared to the chopsticks mao pork belly, definitely less oily with a more 'clean ' feeling, but is more chewy with thicker cut pork chunks. Both are very good and of the same value, so depending on your mood, either is a good choice. 4/5 Update 7/7/19 ordered the Sichuan spicy double cooked pork belly, a very decent portion for price with a good portion of meat and veg cooked with authentic flavour! Fantastic pork belly slices and they didn 't slump out on portion of meat, and there was decent veg with a good bit of fungi, carrot, cabbage and onion. Rice is also included in the meal which is a bonus. Happy with the quality, definitely comparable to chopsticks! 4/5 My friends ordered the ginger beef which was a generous portion and tasty, and and two crispy ducks. Everyone was very happy with their meal and everything came with a portion of rice. Dined in and ordered a medium beef supreme satay. Flavor was sweet yet. It overpowering but lacked in savory taste-however I was warned beforehand by the friendly staff there that this was a sweet dish. The peanut flavor was present and mixed well with the sweet flavor, the beef was cooked well, tender but still chewy. Portion was decent for the price. 3.5/5 just because I wasn 't blown away but makes a good quick eat out meal. Definitely keen to check them out again and try more of their menu!

This place has a really good hot pot. It's not an all you can eat, but it will definitely fill you up! It comes with your choice of meat, veges, noodles, mushrooms and a bowl of rice. Super delicious broth and had a very fun time.

Superbly clean, good food and very good prices. They have liquor licence too, so vine and beer is available.
