Mietta's Review
Unassuming Chinese restaurant which attracts many recommendations for the spicy dishes and homestyle cooking. It is cheap and cheerful, and Portia herself is a terrific host.
Other published opinions
Canberra Times Karen Downing, 8-11-06 "IT'S TUESDAY night in Kingston and parliament is sitting That means ' Portia s Place is packed with u hungry, harried politicians. ... Portia Yeung's courtesy never wavers. Honeyed peanuts arrive at the table as soon as we are seated. And as soon as a larger table is vacated, Portia's staff swing into action and we are relocated. This is Portia's Place. And Portia runs the place with military-like precision and a permanent smile."

One of Canberra's best with excellent food from chef, Dean Sammut, served in a bright space with an open feeling. Very competitive prices.

There are a few seats inside squeezed around the kitchen and bar but mostly it out in the little square that is the centre of Kingston.
