I love that branch. It's like a secret underground bunker.

[Rob Randall]

It's like if Hitler survived the siege of Berlin and the bunker was expanded with nice shops.

[Victoria Watcher]

i think this is shanghai city.

 

$160,000

 

 

A well established restaurant in Chinatown. 3,700 sq.ft. with 170 seats and a banquet room to hold a private party. Location has a rich history as it was the first establishment in Victoria with a liquor license and was also a dance hall frequented by Navy sailors. With a Bar liquor license in place, you can open late and transform the space into a pub-style restaurant. Or, as no one is upstairs you can install a ventilation system in the dining area for your hot pot or table-BBQ style restaurant.

But if that’s how you entertain yourself, go for it.
