I had been to Chinese Treasure on the 14th of June. I've been to this restaurant before and have had good experiences, so this time decided to take some friends out to dinner and my experience was the worse I’ve had in any restaurant may it be UAE, Europe or India. The owner was taking orders and was very artificial. The food we ordered was suppose to be Chinese but was full of green chilies and curry leaves.. Guess they should rename their restaurant Their butter garlic beef was horrible; it seemed like beef in corn flour sauce. To top it all their fried rice had chicken sausages??? From when did Chinese fried rice contain chicken sausages???? At the end of our meal we were charged for 2 bottles of wine instead of 3 glasses We had to recheck the whole bill for errors and were kept waiting for an hour and a half to get the final bill. The owner is a very rude and pompous lady with no courtesy what so ever. All the other staff is very polite and I have never had an issue with any of them before. In the hospitality industry you need to learn to be hospitable.

We visited the restaurant on Dec 12th 2010. Afte 30 mins of waiting we were served with Cold soup, the soup was tasty but we were quiet irritated by the lack of service. We waited for a good 1 hour and 20 mins and our main portions were still being prepared. We were a group of six and all left really upset and irritated. The manager ran behind us to apologize but sorry we have never waited 1.5 hours in a restaurant especially when its not busy. A few tables were empty and with a few servers around they could have served our table in a reasonable time frame considering that we had only ordered 4 main dishes and few portions of rice. NEVER going back again because the worst thing was that after failing to serve us with our main courses after a waiting period of 1.20 hours they still charged us for soup instead of being embarrased and making it complimentary! The biggest mistake any restaurant can make! The extent of thoughtlessness and concern for the customer, it really shocks me!

Came as a family of 4 for dinner on the 10th. Nice interiors. Efficient staff. Crispy fried vegetable in Hunan sauce and chou chu crispy chicken though both starters, qualified as a main dish going by the size. Mains were steamed chicken in soy sauce and chicken in butter garlic sauce. Had a satisfying meal.

Visited again last Thursday. Experienced few veg verieties with usual fantastic results. But bad thing was the billing. While we have given AED 1000/- bill for payment settlement of AED 189/-, restaurant staff came back with requesting changes. As we do not had, given with NBD CC for payment where staff came back saying transaction error on swipe. Last settled the bill using RAK CC and reached home with welcome message from NBD saying transaction approved... So we have been charged twice by the rest.... Awaits the long process to sort this... Hope restaurant will compensate our unhappy situation..

Its one of the authenticated reputed famous Chinese restaurant. they carry a long experience in Dubai. Their food is great. Its a very good family atmosphere and with a good decore. The roof is high, the enviorment is Chinese. Once you go you will get addicted to their good quality food.

They can reduce the rates back to previous ones in order to attract more customers.

I visited this restaurant for the first time on 17th February, 2009 to celebrate a cousins birthday. Having heard so much about this place, our group of 7 family members decided to go to Chinese Treasure as its a short way from International City.

The decor of the place is superb. The entrace makes you feel that you are entering some ancient chinese temple with all types of statues and artifacts around. Indeed we had the feeling of warmt.

However the welcoming by the host wasnt so warming and I would say cold. We got a loud and kinda rude server who was rushing us through our orders. We didnt mind it in the beginning, but it started to get irritating after a while. Having been to some of the best chinese and other restaurants in Dubai we expected some level of more courteous service.

The starter were superb and I recommend that you try out the garlic prawns and red chilly chicken. The red chilly chicken was my favourite. We tried the prawn crackers, but they were kinda soft instead of crispy.

As its a licensed restaurant, I recommend you try the Cocktails. We all had a selection of cocktails and I personnally recommend the Margarita here as it was recommend by our server (well, he did do something good you see).

Coming the main course part, we tried the mixed hakka noodles (w/o veggies), schezuan fried rice, beef crispy and some other items which I cant remember. I would give the food 5 out of 7 here. In my history of dining, it was the first time I seen an authentic chinese restaurant put chicken sausages in the noddles and fried rice, instead of chicken pieces. I informed our server and the restaurant host, but they said they always use sausages. Frankly I only remember sausages being used by my folks at home when making noodles and not at authentic chinese restaurants. The server refused to listen and forced us to have it. Secondly we asked for no veggies in the noddles and fried rice, but to our surprise this wasnt followed. When we questioned the server, he took the item to the kitchen, hand picked the veggies out (yucks!!) and brought it back and we could still see the veggies.

This restaurant lacks a lot in service and really needs to do something.

Food - is good, but the cook seems to be in a hurry and messed up our orders.

There was no restaurant manager on duty and the next day when I called, it was kind of Nilkant Das to apologise, but frankly what can an apology do? I think the server had to replace the items and be more courteous.
