About Amaysia Restaurant

Amaysia Restaurant is an Asian fusion restaurant on Stowell Street in Newcastle's Chinatown. The dining room is wood-accented, and a separate lounge holds karaoke and a pool table for guests who want to stay on after the meal. The kitchen serves stewed lamb ribs in a large size and kimchi seafood fried rice, with prawn crackers brought out while diners wait. Portions run large, and a lunchtime special pairs a starter with a main course. Waiters handle table service throughout. A private dining room is set aside from the main floor for groups.

Customer Review Summary

Big portions and generous starters draw the most praise, with several diners recalling the prawn crackers and kimchi seafood fried rice or kimchi prawn rice as standouts, and one lunch visit singling out the salt and pepper chicken and vegetable spring rolls. Close behind, reviewers repeatedly describe the space as clean and tidy, with attentive, friendly staff and a thick, picture-filled menu spanning Chinese, Malaysian, and Japanese options. A few mention quick food delivery, though one reviewer notes waiter service lagged on a busy Saturday night and another found the room a little cold. One diner reports the Large Stewed Lamb Ribs arrived mostly bone and cartilage for the price, calling it poor value despite past good experiences, and a separate reviewer similarly felt the lamb stewed dish fell short of authenticity. Several say they'll return, with one group of six spending £205 across numerous dishes cooked to order.

    “We are returning customers because we’ve genuinely enjoyed the food here in the past, which made this experience especially disappointing. Tonight, my family and I decided to try something new and ordered the Large Stewed Lamb Ribs (£30). Unfortunately, what we received was far from what we expected. The dish consisted almost entirely of rib trimmings with barely any meat—mostly bone and cartilage. For the price, this was extremely poor value. It’s difficult to enjoy a meal when there’s so little actual meat to eat. We felt quite let down, especially as we had higher expectations based on our previous visits. We hope the restaurant can address this, as we would like to continue coming back, but this experience was very disappointing.”

    “We went here without booking on a Saturday night and were thankfully able to get a table. It is busy but not toooo cramped. The food comes quickly but the waiter service isn’t the quickest. The food is amazing though and the portions are big so I would definitely come back”

    “Extraordinary food! Enormous portions. Very reasonable prices. I tried their prawn crackers and kimchi seafood fried rice. Delicious and hearty meal. Located in the lovely Chinatown, this is an excellent choice if you are craving good Asian food.”
