If your mental images of Chinese restaurants mainly consist of
large, ornately-decorated rooms bustling with trolleys of dim
sum dishes, Mahjong is ready to strip away those assumptions.
The venue has a distinct industrial feel with polished concrete,
painted brick walls and an impressive marble bar.


The menu covers a broad span of Cantonese favourites with a
few modern twists (mini wagyu bao burgers, for one). If
decisions are not your strong suit, the daily chef selection
banquet is a good option to cover all your bases — or head
along to a weekend yum cha service.


Dumpling classics include the ginger prawn, chilli chicken, juicy
pork and tangy vegetables with vinegar sauce options, while
the bits and pieces menu features salt and pepper calamari, the
'Quack Quack' spicy duck salad delightfully wholesome prawn
wonton soup. If you're after something with a bit of kick opt for
the supreme chilli lamb with four different chilli varieties. Wrap it
all up with some sticky coconut rice and a sweet tea.
