jack's noodle

small little restaurant by the lake. staff very friendly & accomodating when i asked if the vegetariandishcould be made vegan they were more than happy to oblige. partner loves their laksa & the dumpling soup. nice & fresh. would definitely eat there again.

amazing!! the most delicious, fresh, tasty home made dumplings i have ever eaten :) this time i ordered the laksa and wow....!! perfectly balanced broth, perfect amount of chilli, perfectdishin every way! my lab was pretty keen on the beautiful aroma also, haha. extremely friendly and helpful staff, cheap and great location. can't get enough of this place.

amazing food from this tiny gem. poppy has only ordered the onedishso far but it was a cracker! i knew the food was going to be great after noticing the senior chef walk from the kitchen into the front of the shop, at that instant i thought this elder lady knows how to cook. i ordered the dumplings in laksa soup takeaway and it was incredible. the laksa was so coconutty and the dumplings were some of the best i've ever eaten!!! no joke. they were filled with quality spring onion, pork and prawns. the shallot pancake was delicious, the chicken seafood noodles lasted 2mins, they were devoured so quick and the szechuan dumplings were nice too and had a chilli kick. thumb up, worth an eat 👍 can't wait to go back on friday for lunch and try something else

entering this restaurant, i didn't receive the best impression at first. the waitress stoically explained the menu and what things were in the laksa noodle i was eyeing. given it was the weekend, i can forgive the waitress's apathy. personally i felt that this particular waitress warmed up to other customers better.

the food was delivered by the chef, and she was all smiles. i could feel that the chef was proud of herdishas she delivered it, and boy did i have a blast with it all.

any sort of fried pancake is a favourite of mine, and i couldn't resist ordering the fried spring onion pancake as my entree and it lived up to expectations. crispy and soft in all the right places and it being delicious.

the seafood laksa was definitely a treat, beautiful combination of tofu, prawns, and what i believe were crab meat, and fried squid. the soup itself gave you this pleasant, warm feeling. the cherry on top of thisdishwas it was presented beautifully, all the ingredients were neatly organised, and just looking at thisdishis enough to full someone into thinking they're eating at a top end asian restaurant. while i was eating the soup, i had forgotten that the laksa came with noodles and was surprised to see them, and they went so well with the laksa. the portions are what i consider to be generous, especially since the ingredients and components of this laksa are high quality. it really does show that this place is excellent value for money.

i loved this place so much that i went back and decided how it would fare for their takeaway orders. i didn't have the laksa this time but i did have the bbq pork with rice and fried egg. i wasn't disappointed and this particular dish, was very homey. the person that happened to serve me today appeared to be nicer than the one before or seemed to have less of a bad day.

this place exceeded all expectations i had. what i love about this restaurant is that it's food done authentically, and humbly, and done right. an absolute pleasure to eat, and i look forward to coming back. so far it is by far one of the best eateries in mawson lakes (which isn't saying much, but this one is really good).
