Rising Sun is easily one of the most authentic Northern Chinese restaurants in Dunedin. The chef cooks with real skill—the flavors are rich, fragrant, and exactly what you’d expect from proper home-style northern dishes. Every meal feels hearty and satisfying.
A wonderful spot if you’re looking for genuine Chinese comfort food in the city.

Bangin’. Fantastic staff. The Special Flavoured Eggplant was incredible. The prawn noodles were fantastic, good flavour and deliciously savoury, and the vegetable dumplings have to be some of the BEST I’ve had in years. So so good and delightful. We want more!!

I’m strongly recommend here Authentic Northeastern Chinese cuisine, thanks. Delicious, portion is big, and reasonable price. 😆

We have heard from work that this place was good. So stopped by for take away.
Ordered 2 set of Dumplings - prawn and pork & vegetable. Sweet and sour.
Price is not bad. Service was OK. The lady was friendly but her English is not good. You just have to be a bit understanding that English is not her first language but service is good.
Shop is just a little bit rundown but food make it up for it.
Menu is Hugh. I wish I could try them all. Look great.

One of the best Chinese restaurants in South Island I’d say. We went twice during our 5 days stay in Dunedin, and even took away some food with us back to Christchurch. Fair price and good quality.
The eggplant dish is a must have, and best to have it there when it’s fresh made and crispy. The owners are very sweet and welcoming.
