Good spot, easy parking, nice&comfy seating. Food was good and reasonably priced. Good selection of non-alcoholic drinks. Foods are tasty~ Special note to Chilli Dumpling, Pot stickers, Chilli Beef~ In general the flavours are very good. Could do with more or a variety of menu choices though. Zomato gold worked well.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We ordered the chicken bao, fried chicken and seafood pad thai. Food presentation was nice as well. Couldn’t fault anything. Ambiance was good, fairly new restaurant by the looks of it. Would definitely recommend this!!!!

Great food and good service even though was a bit understaffed. Recommend the shumai and the fried chicken with a bowl of braised pork rice.

Warning don’t order the large fried chicken by yourself you will not be able to help yourself and may feel slightly sick after eating the whole thing. The food here was delicious and cheap with Gold pricing. The prawn pad Thai was flavoursome and fresh. The only let down would have been one pancake for five dollars, which was said to be enough for two people. A small shortage of service but it may be just teething problems. Would go again.

The vietnamese waiter was so amazing! He was so amazing from when we seated up until the very end!
He was super patient and gave us recommendations as it was our first time there.
The service we received was the best experience I've ever had at any restaurant I've ever been to.
I felt very comfortable and everything he recommended was heavenly! I do have a thing for Kumara fries though so my favourite was that!
The pork belly bao was my friend's favourite and can't blame him, that was also delicious!

I came here for dinner with friends and we absolutely loved it, both the service and food. We were highly recommended this restaurant because of our love for Kai eatery in town.

When we walked in we were greeted and immediately seated. The service was outstanding, the waiter accidentally dropped a wine glass (not ours) but he profusely apologised for the noise and mess.

We ordered the chicken bites, spring rolls, beef tataki, pork belly bao and sizzling beef. The highlight has to be the beef tataki, it was amazingly flavoursome and tender. All dishes though were great, very little to fault about the food.

As mentioned before, the service was extremely friendly and welcoming.

Highly recommend General Kai!

I am impressed with this place! Customer service was really good. If you are struggling to decide the waiter there is really helpful and helps you pick the best dishes. The food was perfect, in love with the dumplings with sichuan sauce, and the vietnamese chicken salad 🥰. The place was decorated beautifully too. Would love to come here again 👋

Dropped by General Kai for dinner for the first time. My better half heard of them when they were a food truck so here we are. Nice new clean restaurant setup. Ordered four dishes off the menu which has various Asian cuisine to choose from. Food was tasty but did not really wowed us tremendously. Friendly and smiley staffs. Thank you

Great modern pan-Asian fare opened by the guys who started the Kai Eatery food truck. A great mix of Asian cuisines including Japanese, Vietnamese, Taiwanese and Chinese - unlike some other places, all the dishes were done really well. And the highly recommended Kai Fried Chicken has to be some of the crunchiest I have had in a while. The pearls on my tea were a bit too soft for my liking, but I enjoyed the modern atmosphere and service. Hope it stays in the area and tastes just as good when I come back next.

General Kai has definitely brought his A game over from Kai Eatery to the competitive Asian food scene that is Dominion Road. The signature fried chicken is every bite as tasty as the original XL chicken (beats the Colonel's chicken anyday). There was little wait time between our dishes, yet they all tasted fresh and piping hot. No doubt an excellent hangout spot to wow your friends with a mean feed!

Yummy food! I recommend the Kung Pao chicken and the Five Spices duck pancake. Love the crispy pancake. The place is nice and cozy. The staff are great and helpful with the menus. They accept zomato gold here. Lots of parking available in the side of the building. The place needs a bigger sign as its hard to locate when you are driving.

Had fried chicken, it was ok...quantity not qorth $15...Kai Eatery XL chicken is better value. Also had peach tea with black pearl...there nothing special about it. Tried their white pearl...it taste like lychee but I will stick with the original black pearls.
