About Liu Rose Restaurant

Step past the gold panels into a suburban time capsule of 1980s Aussie-Cantonese dining—thick patterned carpets, round banquet tables, and suited staff spooning courses tableside. Concord locals gather here for pure celebratory nostalgia, sharing tea-smoked duck, ginger-shallot lobster over bouncy noodles, and sizzling platters. The vintage playbook runs all the way to dessert, finishing with crisp fried ice cream and torched Baked Alaska.

  • Preserved Retro Dining Room: Preserved 1970s and 80s interior featuring ornate gold panels, double phoenix ceiling tiles, and vintage plush patterned carpets.
  • Vintage Banquet Staples: Classic Australian-Chinese specialties, from ginger-shallot lobster and sizzling hot plates to rare showpieces like Baked Alaska.
  • Old-School Tableside Service: Traditional hospitality with well-dressed, bow-tied waitstaff presenting and dishing out courses tableside.

  • Hard-To-Find Vintage Classics

    The kitchen prepares iconic mid-century banquet showpieces and rare specialties, from sizzling crocodile dishes to deep-fried ice cream and Baked Alaska.

    To end the meal, we had Baked Alaska. Again, this brings back nostalgia as I don't know where else in Sydney you can get Baked Alaska.
