Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We remembered having lunch with our friends who live in Woodend last Feb at the Double Eight Chinese restaurant and our friends treated us once again to an excellent lunch of Asian tastes. The hostess was welcoming, friendly and good service ably assisted by Grace...who was preparing to start school next year. We enjoyed the visit to Woodend and the lunch made it perfect.More

My husband and I enjoy our regular Sunday evening meal at this warm and personalised restaurant. We are working our way through the menu and our chef will suggest something we haven’t tried before, even venturing out to say hello, ask how we liked the...dish. The food is always delicious, our grandson saying 11/10👍🏻People come from miles around! Congratulations to Sally and Derek you do a fabulous job!More

Our friends chose the Double Eight instead of having a pub lunch and although we did not have a reservation we had a very good lunch sharing 2 x 2 entrees and 3 main dishes with drinks politely served up quickly and thoroughly enjoyable. Would...have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant for taste and service and at reasonable prices.More

We visited for a family reunion lunch and were very impressed! Friendly service and we all enjoyed a thoroughly delicious meal. Prices for food and drinks were all very reasonable and the menu extensive. Thoroughly enjoyable experience and brilliant food.

We ordered takeaway having recently moved into the area. This was without questions the worst Asian meal we have ever had. We ordered three dishes and they were all simply awful. Two of the main dishes we ordered were battered (not something that is usual...for these dishes) and were completely dry. Won’t be back…More

What an absolute delight to find in Woodend. As good a Chinese meal as you will find anywhere. Made to feel welcome, a wide ranging menu (although we took the easy way and ordered one of the banquets), and clean and comfortable. Obviously well known...in the area as the number of people collecting take away orders was staggering. Not to miss if you're in the area.More

Very nice family run restuarant. A very good menu selection and reasonably priced. Good noodle and soup selection on a cold woodend winter's evening. Take away during COVID was also available. I would recommend more than passing - worth a longer travel.

I have been here on numerous occasions and have always found the food to be excellent. My favourites are the Sesame prawn entree and for a main the Westlake duck. But it is all good and according to my friend who regularly visits China it...is very authentic.More

I have eaten here on four occasions now and had takeout once and I have always had great food. The service is good and the food is excellent.

I had heard this restaurant was very good. I could not have been more disappointed. For a start the three of us were crowded around a two man table and I had a bar across my knees and could not push my chair in. We...were not shown to our table upon arrival and had to flag down a waiter after 15 minutes to get a drink. Both the food and service were rated 1 out of 10. It was some of the saddest, most tasteless Chinese food. I have had better Chinese from food courts. An extremely disappointing evening.More

We dropped in for a late dinner with friends. The menu was expansive with a great many choices, our food was served very quickly and was fresh from the kitchen, nobody went hungry and the beer was cold. Prices were very reasonable and we even...took some takeaway home for our son. Delicious and speedy what more can you ask forMore
