About Paul Louey

A fixture on Point Nepean Road, Paul Louey delivers classic Australian-style Chinese comfort at a breakneck pace. Orders move from the wok to the counter in under 15 minutes even during peak holiday rushes, with sweet and sour dishes smartly boxed with sauce on the side so the batter stays crisp. Dietary quirks are handled without fuss—the kitchen readily skips onions or garlic on request, alongside dedicated vegetarian noodles and tofu stir-fries. Table service is warm and unhurried, dishing up smoky special fried rice loaded with prawns and barbecue pork.

  • Rapid takeaway turnaround: Wok orders are regularly prepped and packed within 10 to 15 minutes, even during packed dinner hours.
  • Crisp-conscious packaging: Takeaway sweet and sour orders keep fried meats and sauce separate to retain crunch.
  • Custom dietary flexibility: The kitchen accommodates strict dietary requests, including allium omissions and vegetarian orders.
