Enjoyed a great night celebrating our daughter’s birthday. Went for the all you can Duck special at $49 per head. Everything was very tasty and we tried a few of the cocktails too which were also delicious. Would highly recommend Holy Duck and will definitely be back
The duck fried rice had close to no duck in it. I don’t like tanking a restaurants ratings so giving a 4. Tastes more like scallion fried rice with mustard seeds. More had duck skin in the pieces it did have than the actual meat. Got the deep fried vanilla ice cream-nice addition, worth a try, reasonably priced. The other options on the menu did look nice from looking around though. The servers were pleasant and the food was served fast. Disappointed overall
Came here due to a tiktok recommendation, but overall deeply agree with all the other reviews stating that its mediocre for the price/nothing spectacular if you've ever eaten Peking duck at any other proper chinese restaurant. The service and atmosphere was fantastic and there is a bar with many nice looking cocktails to choose from. We went with the $48pp AYCE duck buffet which consisted of spring rolls, lettuce wraps, fried rice, and duck pancakes. The lettuce wraps were fresh and well seasoned, but the rest of the menu was slightly disappointing - especially the duck pancakes where the duck came out quite dry, the cucumbers felt like they had been left out for some time (felt soft and dry), and the pancakes felt a bit thick and heavy on the flour. Would still recommend if you are just looking for a fun experience with good drinks, if looking for a premium duck experience would perhaps suggest elsewhere.
We had a really pleasant experience here! We had the $48pp AYCE experience and would say it is worth it. My personal favourites were the duck spring rolls and crispy duck pancakes. I was a bit worried seeing some of the reviews mention the duck being dry, but we personally found the duck to be cooked perfectly. We also really appreciated the great service we received throughout the night, they were very friendly and accommodating :-) I note that you are able to order as much as you want but in a set order i.e. you start with duck spring rolls and can order as much as you want. Once you decide to move on to the next course, you are unable to order duck spring rolls anymore but can order as much of your next course as you want, until you choose to move on again. We would definitely come back again :-)
Came here to check out the restaurant as we saw it on TikTok as highly recommended. I’m sad to say that it was quite disappointing. The waiter took a while to greet us and have us seated. The food took at least 20-25 minutes to come and only 1 main dish came after asking the waiter where our food was. When the starters finally came, the crispy rice balls with duck came with no duck at all and only salad. When questioned about this, the waiter took a while to fix this issue and came back with a small bowl of duck…. I hate to admit that majority of the dishes were very salty as well. Duck was quite dry and not juicy at all, considering that duck is their signature dish, this was very disappointing They ended up giving us 25% off as I assume they knew we were unhappy.
