This is a great little Chinese takeaway shop that has been trading in Edithvale for a very long time. It has been run by the same family for some 30 plus years. Authentic traditional Chinese, which is very flavourful.

Penta Kabab has completely won me over with its fresh, flavorful food and refreshing juices. The service was top-notch, with an incredibly welcoming staff that made the experience even better. As you can see from the pictures, we couldn't resist finishing every bite—it was that delicious! Whether you're a family or an individual heading to the beach, this spot is perfect. The location is absolutely stunning, making it the ideal place to enjoy great food and a beautiful atmosphere.
The ambience of the restaurant was excellent, and the service was quite good. However, the food was somewhat underwhelming. While they offered complimentary prawn crackers, which was a nice touch, the coconut rice was overly sweet in comparison to the other dishes. I also ordered a prawn specialty that was recommended in the menu (I can't recall the exact name), but I found it overly salty and not particularly special.
The overall dining experience wasn't terrible, but it seemed like a matter of personal preference. The combination of sweet coconut rice with the salty and creamy prawn curry made for a less than satisfying meal. On the positive side, the Thai fried rice was delicious, and the Penang chicken curry had a distinct, rich flavor, though it was quite thick and heavy.
In summary, the restaurant offers an inviting atmosphere at an affordable price. Perhaps if I had chosen different dishes, my experience would have been more enjoyable.
