Crown City in Maidstone

Absolutely brilliant night, enjoyed it so much we're going back for the Tina Turner tribute this weekend. Lovely staff and food.

I used to live in Teston for a few years from 1959, so this was a catch up. Had an early lunch which was quite excellent. Shame I was the only customer, I had the Sesame prawns on toast. Very different and yet so tasty and filling. With it I had a first for me, A Chinese Beer.

Beware the lrice of soft drinks, used to do a pint of coke now its a can of coke, £3.50+ I dont mind restuarants making money but 800% mark up on a can is bloody disgusting. I wont be going back until you stop treating customers as cash cows, be like America and offer free refills, you charge enough

This Chinese restaurant was within walking distance of our hotel. We liked the variety on the menu and our food was hot, tasty and was served within a reasonable timescale. Our server May was very friendly and we had an very enjoyable, relaxing meal. Our measure is always - would we wish to return to the restaurant and would we recomend this restaurant to family and friends. The answer is yes!

We went for the Sunday a la carte buffet, and it was great! Went with my mum and grandmother. Good service and was well paced, everything cooked fresh, and always offered to have more if we wanted. Couldn’t have faulted it !

First time here in years to sit and eat, but have had takeaways. It was heaving at 7pm. Which I thought was a good sign. The restaurant hadn’t changed inside for over 20 years, and is in dire need of a refurb, it smelt very musty, and they had crammed tables in. The starters were awful, over cooked and not freshly made. A few of the main obscure dishes we chose were good and seemed freshly cooked, but others I felt were cooked and stuck on a warming plate or something. The staff were very busy, and it was manic so service wasn’t good, staff seemed bad tempered. They are obviously coining it in cash wise, so why not spend some of that money on updating the restaurant and taking it back to a pleasant experience with less tables. I felt it was ‘more tables, more customers, more cash.’ Would not eat there again.

It's hard to find a good Chinese restaurant that you can sit down in these days, this is one of those rare gems. Parking is sometimes a squeeze (especially at the weekends) and they don't open on Mondays for lunch but we regularly go for a lunch later in the week and it's normally quiet and the service is generally very good. Most people opt for the buffet menu, which is not a traditional buffet menu (as we think of it). You order what you want (within reason) from the available starters, they are then cooked so all the food is freshly prepared and made. If you have a healthy appetite, then you can order more starters once the first round has been eaten (again and again). Next comes a choice of crispy lamb or crispy duck (it's always the duck), with all the normal extras. Much like the starters, you then order your main courses and if you have finished what you have ordered you can order some more. I'm not a fan of the wine list; really could do with updating. To be honest the drinks are not as high a quality as the food, but you can get the usual spirits and mixers and soft drinks.

Takeaway lunch was delicious. All the dishes were well presented, even though they were packed for takeaway. We have lived in the area for many years but this is our first visit to Crown City...we won’t be going anywhere else in the future. A delightful lockdown find.

Phoned up my order and was told that it would be ready in 20 minutes. Went down to collect and received a warm welcome from Elly who was handing out the orders from the door.Got back and began my feast, satay was really nice, sweet and sour chicken balls were among the best in town and egg fried rice was proper filling. First time I have eaten from here as I have only resided in the area for less than a year but will definitely be back again.

Was recommended to have a meal at this restaurant as I was in the area with family. The food is absolutely delicious and the service excellent too. We had set menu B and everything was cooked to perfection. If we are in the area again we will definitely come back.

We tried the lunchtime buffet - £18 - per head, and found it very good indeed. We were a party of six and there was sufficient food for all. Freshly cooked and it seemed authentically Chinese. Service was smooth.

Normally we have been pleased with our order and friendly staff when ordering, however our last few orders have not been so good. As one was on Christmas Eve with items missing we put it down to time of year however yesterday we had ordered chicken balls, in the bag we had a few chicken balls and some kind of fish ones, did not taste like prawns so we threw them away. As Chinese is not cheap these are becoming expensive errors for the customer, driving back is not always an option so check your bags before you leave. Otherwise the quality has been fine.

We visited Crown City late last year, I am only posting this now as it still really bothers (and shocks) me how poorly the situation was dealt with. We don’t live far from Crown City and visited a few times, on this occasion it was a treat for my mother’s birthday and my 4 year old was also in attendance – we went for the all you can eat on Sunday, as always we were enjoying the food. We had ordered a second round of starters when I noticed a long black hair on one of the chicken skewers (luckily my son had originally picked it up but as he already had one on his plate I removed it when I noticed the hair)Hair in food is never great but it does happen …. It was how it was handled that has led me to write this review and never re-visit! My Mum called over the waitress and advised of the long black hair now placed on the table (I am blonde as is my Mum, and son) we told the waitress about the hair expecting the usual apology and replacement of food – instead she twirled the hair around her fingers, (YUK) looked at me and said ‘but it is ginger’ and then burst into laughter??? I was, at this point shocked but perhaps this could be put down to poor humour??????? Either way we didn’t laugh in response and advised we are not ginger and the long black hair was in fact found in our food! She took the hair away but left the food on the table without any further apology and needless to say, no replacement?Usually I would not complain abut food and remain in the restaurant but not wanting to cause a fuss on a birthday outing for my Mum and also knowing we would be able to leave and go somewhere else with my 4 year old we continued with the meal (after all the food is nice but we were left feeling very strange about what had happened) At the end of the meal we was given the bill with no deductions ….. or apology, it was as though it didn’t happen??Like I said hair in food, although not nice does happen but it is how an establishment handles it that really says a lot and I feel calling me ginger whilst having a good giggle, with no apology or at the very least removing the soiled food is completely unacceptable.

We usually use this restaurant when we have a Chinese takeaway and have always enjoyed the freshly cooked food. We decided to try the Sunday buffet as it was my husband's 60th Birthday the following day. He chose to go there and we wasn't disappointed!! The service was excellent and attentive. The food was freshly cooked and delicious. There was plenty of choice and we thoroughly enjoyed all our food. Our son's who have big appetites said they would recommend it to their friends too. We will definitely be back!!

Recommended here by a neighbour as our more local Chinese has gone down hill sadly.Was pleasantly surprised at the taste - all dishes tasted flavoursome and different to each other (not always a given in takeaways!).They also amended some dishes for our preference.One suggestion would be to please add some dishes onto the menu which are vegan - I was able to do it myself (made a tofu pad Thai) but would be great if these were labelled on the menu.Also delivery for takeaway would obviously be great!

Been to crown city a lot over the years but never reviewed it ?one thing you can guarantee is attentive service !!some would say pushy or rushed they do kind of hover over you.But the food is always and I mean always the food is stunning ,nothing else you can say about it

We like the food here and often grab a takeaway. Today I am writing about he Sunday buffet.This is not the first time we have been for the buffet menu and have always been very happy. I am very sad to report that the lady serving our table was offhand with us from the very beginning.We were given a drinks menu and a young lady took our drinks order, leaving the drinks menu with us as we were reading it. Then our waitress arrived and asked if we would like drinks. We told her our order had been taken. She then with a cross voice replied " Well why do you still have the drinks menu then" as if we had done something wrong.This attitude continued all evening. we asked for some more Prawn Crackers and she told us if we wanted more we would have to pay extra. This was the buffet all inclusive menu, it made no sense, we could have ordered more beef dishes which would have been free. Previously had no problem with extra Prawn crackers. The Lady spoiled our evening.The food however was delicious.

We went for lunch today the food was very good and the staff were helpful and very attentive. We had the lunch buffet, which worked out at £49.90 for the 2 of us with a drink. The service charge is automatically added which worked out well for us. I would return if we are in the area again.

We use Crown City for a takeaway only as we tend to eat at home.The dishes on the menu are pretty much the standard Chinese dishes but the quality of the food is always excellent and way above average.The service is quick and our food is always ready when they say it will be.

Went on Tuesday eve , fairly quiet only two other tables occupied , party of 6 and table of four, cannot praise enough the service or food , staff kept an eye without bothering us, each course came 3/4 minutes after we had finished one . Food was absolutely great not the cheapest but by far the nicest Chinese I’ve eaten in a long while will def return and recommend

Decent Chinese restaurants are thin on the ground in our part of Kent, and we always find Chinese take aways disappointing. This restaurant had been recommended and we are pleased we went. The Sunday set menu allows you to choose starters, followed by Peking duck with pancake, spring onions etc and then a choice of mains with rice or noodles. There were four of us so we each chose, which gave a variety. You are asked if you would like more starters or main courses (once you've finished) so we couldn't resist more crispy chilli beef which was delicious. We all had ample to eat and were able to choose exactly what we fancied. Best of all my 98 year old mother, who is very difficult to please, continued to mention how much she had enjoyed it for several days!

Great food, but £3.50p for the above, which is basically a squash, is beyond a rip off!! Be warned...

We all agree this is our family favorite! The food is fresh the staff are professional and friendly.

We were a party of 22 and the service was brilliant, we did not wait long for food and drinks to arrive. Food was very nice. Big bill at the end but we over ordered lol! Very popular place, tables were full and lots of customers picking up take aways. Overall experience there was great!

Had a set meal A for two. It was delicious, hot and plenty of it. We will definitely use again. We used the take away service, phone our order through to collect two hours later it was ready to go. They don’t deliver but that’s ok.

We recently visited Crown City as a family and it didn’t disappoint. The food was served quickly after ordering, the staff were friendly and there was a good atmosphere. The food tasted great and we had such a variation of it.

After a busy Friday we couldn't be bothered to cook, so we decided to try the Crown City, a Chinese restaurant and take away in a repurposed pub on the A26 on the outskirts of Wateringbury. There is a large car park and good level access to the main restaurant, and a waiting area set off to one side for those collecting take away food. We ordered at 7.30pm and were told that the meal would be ready for collection in 40 minutes. Upon arrival I paid and the food arrived within seconds. We started with butterfly prawns, coated in a good crunchy overcoat, followed by possibly the hottest Singapore noodles I have ever had (but nonetheless not overly hot), a vegetable Chow Mein, Kung Po prawns and fillet steak in a peppercorn sauce. The prawns were perfectly cooked and coated in a good batter, and the steak had been shown to the wok as it passed through the kitchen, just how we both like it. A goodly portion of prawn crackers finished off the meal. The staff that we dealt with were all friendly and helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant for those seeking good Chinese and east Asian food.

We have frequented Crown City for a couple of years now. We generally go with a large group of friends or family for their Sunday buffets. Everytime we have visited, the food is piping hot and very tasty, the service is friendly and quick and it's terrific value. A real go to for us, look forward to coming back soon!

Firstly, I've never eaten in the restaurant as I live nearby and have always favoured the takeaway option. The food isn't the cheapest, but you certainly get what you pay for. Not a criticism at all. They don't deliver and that's always a good sign. The place is always packed, so if you do want to sit down please book as they always seem maxed out with customers. Always order ahead when getting the takeaway too - although if you do wait in the foyer, they bring out prawn crackers and you can have a drink if you want from the bar. I wouldn't get Chinese takeaway from anywhere else!

We went on a Tuesday so it wasn't very busy, however the food and service was very good. We had a sharing

Always love a Chinese from Crown City, we don’t live close but it’s worth the journey for their food. The staff are always polite and Friendly. Best Chinese in Maidstone by a mile.

Birthday Dinner, very attentive and very helpful on the ordering as we were unsure how the 'buffet' worked. Food was delicious. We'll be back again.

The little chinese lady is so rude & abrupt

We enjoy eating here, but settled for a take-away, that was equally as good. I chose chicken in yellow bean sauce with seaweed and singapore noodles and was very full and couldn't clear my plate. We will visit to eat there again and would recommend it as a take-away too.

First visit. Not too busy as mid week get together. Food excellent. Service good. Would visit again.

food fantastic,welcome not so great,attitude of woman who appeared to be in charge quiet rude,this is unusual,never happened in past,not a smile out of herbut food excellent

I have been reading some reviews of this place, the majority have been positive however some were quite bad, most of the bad reviews had a reference about the lady manager, yes she is quite abrupt but we found her very efficient. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was plentiful and hot also it was very tasty. We booked for 8.30 but we were running quite early thought we would just turn up and wait, we were greeted at the door and I apologised for being early and was told it was not a problem and would we like to eat straight away. We will definitely be going back

Walked in to an empty restaurant for the lunch time buffet and alarm bells started ringing in my head. We had just travelled half an hour to get there and I was too hungry to turn around so I thought I would suck it and see.

This place has a decent car park, we booked for an early dinner at 7.30pm, just in case and in fact the place was full! It seems popular with locals, the staff where friendly and the service was very good. It is a typical wayside Chinese both in design and menu. It does claim to be an asian fusian restaurant, but the menu is conventional Chinese. We enjoyed the meal, but it was nothing inspirational. Just a note to say they are not taking bookings via the web site, you will need to call during opening hours.

I’m so glad that I didn’t read the reviews before coming here as understandably it would put you off!

This is my local Chinese. I have used it for years but Ive always left with feeling that my “business” wasn’t appreciated. The staff of this restaurant do need to go to charm school because when they are busy, they become fraught, then abrupt which then angers some take away customers.

We arrived at 6.30pm for an early dinner as with my young daughter. When we arrived the restaurant wasn’t that busy but did quickly build up. The staff were shouting at each other across the restaurant. Phone was constantly ringing and there was a lot of people waiting for take out. Our waitress changed part way through, her service had a lot to be desired. She was rude and abrupt, efficiency was not her strong point when prompted about the drink that I ordered some 20 mins prior her response was they were busy no apology given. By 8.30pm we hadn’t been served our main when we questioned it after a altercation between the waitresses we were told it would be another 20 mins at least. So we decided to leave never to return on a Saturday again. The service was very broken tonight.

Had a takeaway with friends- only second time I have eaten from there and will not again- so disappointing. Each dish was filled with so much veg there was little else- we counted 6 king prawns in a main course, chow mein was more bean sprout and onion than noodle and sadly the prawn toast was inedible - soft, undercooked looking and tasted wrong - don’t think I have ever thrown so much food away. The first time experience the noodles were badly burnt - but at least was more noodle than not- made allowances for off day but not 2 off days. Will be sticking to Wai Yin in Wateringbury as far superior quality and better prices. 2 stars because 2 of the dishes were nice and acceptable content (of 11 dishes total).

Been to this restaurant many times normally for the sunday buffet, you can choose from a good selection for starters, then crispy duck and a choice of main courses, food comes very hot and fresh, would recommend.

About average food for a Chinese restaurant. Nothing special but no complaints about the food. Staff however - very rude. Advised us we would be “fined” if we hadn’t finished the food on our plates. Price is as expected. Wouldn’t visit again simply due to staff!

Met up with family for our annual blow out. Super food. The duck was excellent. Service a bit slow and not much selection of spirits in the bar. Having said that it was a great evening with very good food

This is the second time we have visited this restaurant and I must say the food is as good as any other Chinese restaurant I’ve been to,

Wow what a disappointment. Large group pre booked. Only interested in loading up the drinks bill. Bad attitude when ordered second rounds of food and took in excess of 20 mins to bring it out. Have enjoyed lovely food here previously but due to the dreadful service and poor service we will not be back

I love this restaurant. Ample parking. Lovely and clean, staff very attentive and the food is gorgeous.

Easily the best Chinese restaurant in Maidstone. Their food is gorgeous and tasty. It never fails, ever. We have never had a bad meal and have been eating there for years. It’s well worth the journey.

I’ve been here several times since I’ve lived in Kent and can honestly say it’s the best Chinese you will ever have! The food is gorgeous- always hot and tasty. (Chicken chow mein is unreal!) service is reasonably quick and the atmosphere is perfect. I’ve come here with my partner but also have come here with groups of friends/family before and every occasion has never been a disappointment. staff are also so friendly. Yes it is slightly more expensive than others, but it’s defiantly reasonable considering the quality of the food. They also do takeaway (collect only) which is another bonus if you want to eat in the comfort of your own home. Would definitely recommend!

I went here last Wednesday, as I know at weekends the restaurant is very busy as the car park is always packed. The food was absolutely amazing, best Chinese food I’ve eaten for a long time. Service was great too, I’m not sure the name of the man who was serving us but he was the best host. I see on the posters they have live music on a Saturday night so would like to try that sometime but I will have to book in advance. Highly recommend this Chinese restaurant and I believe they do takeaways too.

The food was very expensive compared to other Chinese restaurants I have visited and the portions quite small. That said the food was very tasty. The all you can eat buffet wasn't available on a Saturday

This is our absolute favourite whether it’s a take away or eat in the food is superb we highly recommend it you won’t be disappointed we use this establishment all the time

I have repeatedly eaten at this restaurant over the years and never had a bad...or even mediocre- meal. Excellent food and excellent service.

Hidden away about 4 miles out of Maidstone is the little village of Teston (pronounced Ti-ston). On the main road is Crown City Chinese restaurant. I had lunch there today and found it extremely good. The food is very tasty, plentiful and hot. The service was without fault and you were made to feel important. I thought the prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food. A treat for a quiet solo meal or for larger parties which are catered for.

Went here for a couples meal on the way home from a day out. Even though it was busy the service was prompt and the staff friendly. We had a good meal with the set menu and plenty of food to eat including aromatic duck pancakes. Would go back and also suitable for families. Reasonably priced also!

Hot and sunny evening called in on our way home. Table found and drinks quickly brought. Ordered a selection of starters- satays , spring rolls and squid. All piping hot and tasty. Duck and pancakes - good could have been crispier but nice quality. Mains of sweet and sour chicken and sizzling beef with noodles and rice. Mixed vegetables in oyster sauce could have been more of a mix - all

Went there the other day for lunch on our Anniversary. It was the first time in ages we have been in for a meal. Whilst the takeout is always good you can't beat eating in and it wasn't a disappointment. We did the buffet which was reasonably priced and yes it is a little more expensive than some others but the quality of the food is worth it. The chap in there is not overly friendly until the end of the meal but I m quite happy being left alone to eat.

Don't be put off by others saying that the Crown City is overpriced. It is not. You pay a premium everywhere you go in the part of Kent and if you want decent food in a decent restaurant, you have to pay for it. I don't think £100 for 3 adults and 2 kids is expensive. The service is also very good, all the staff are well trained, chatty and know the menu well. Highly recommended and I will be returning

The food was really fabulous, but we had to wait over an hour between starters and mains and again for a pudding. The waiters were really attentive but unfortunately take aways took precedence over the restaurant. I would recommend this restaurant but not if you are in a hurry

Went for a birthday treat. Food is good . However sizzling beef dish didn’t arrive till we were half way through the course which was a bit late. Also we were sat under the music speaker which spoiled the evening.

I came this place many times, they never let me down. They food was amazing, completely over indulged but it’s so worth it! Best Chinese I’ve had and good service. Defo recommend people to try crown city.

This is really nice place. They food was amazing I can’t believe how tasty. It’s best Chinese food I’ve had and friendly staff.

I only ate half of my meal so asked to have it boxed up to take home but the waitress forgot and it was thrown away. To add insult to injury they still charged me full price (for half a meal) and even slapped on a service charge! Appalling service, will not be returning!

WOW! Where do I start! We visited for a family birthday, everyone decided we wanted to do the all you can eat buffet, unfortunately I have a nut allergy and like everywhere I eat I inform them of this before I place an order.

Visited with some friends, the food quality was very good and tasty, and the service was good, but i thought it quite expensive and an automatic service charge which really annoys me.

Quick efficient service. All food very tasty but not greasy. Prawn balls were excellent and mixed starters very good. Rice a little stodgy. Will go to the restaurant next time.

We walked into Crown City last night after being turned away by another local restaurant, well I'm glad we was!...

Crown City always does great food, it’s the best Chinese restaurant in Maidstone, their dishes aren’t greasy like other places...

Excellent food as always from the buffet menu - lots of choice, helpful staff and very good value

Another lovely takeaway but way too much food ....as always!

We had a lovely evening here. The food was delicious and plentiful. The staff were polite, friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!

The food here is always really good. Can be quite expensive but the set menu is quite good and the Sunday buffet style is really good value for money. The restaurant does look a little tired though.

Great food and great service very friendly and a great venue good was served hot and plenty of it good value wine as well

Evening out with my wife. Chinese Restaurant. We had a meal for 2 at a total cost of £47. The meal was superb and more than plentiful would happily recommend it to anyone wanting a Chinese meal with excellent service.

We ordered Chicken and cashews in yellow bean sauce, crispy beef, smoked shredded chicken and crispy seaweed as a takeaway. The food was delicious and at £20 we thought it was great value for money. It's definitely the best Chinese food in the Maidstone area.

Rang to book all u can eat buffet for Saturday at 12pm . As they close at 2.30 They then said they are open all day So I booked a bit later 2pm All good until Saturday when they rang to say are we still coming at 2pm as they close at 2.30 !!!!!We were then told could come at 5.30 when they open so we did. But no buffet a la cart only , not impressed at all , We were going to leave but had been looking forward to a Chinese all day , We were given a free drink and the food was good so sort of made up for it ,But the service was not great clearing some of our plates even though we had not all finished . Not a smile from any of the staff who spent a lot of time just standing watching for you to finish , Very of putting . May try again just because the food was good but not sure

We ordered our takeaway and waited whilst it was supposedly being " freshly cooked" What a joke!The Sesame Prawn Toast managed the seemingly impossible feat of being burnt and slimy at the same time. £4.90 The Sweet & Sour Prawns ( Hong Kong Style) were burnt to a crisp and the accompanying pot of sauce would probably be an effective drain cleaner if you ran out of Domestos. £6.70The King Prawns with Asparagus ( a total of 6 Prawns and a few scraps of sprue) were swamped by lots of almost raw white onion, limp shreds of Spring Onion, and, most worryingly, slices of carrot which were obviously slices of the carved vegetable sculptures they use to decorate tables and dishes served in the eat-in restaurant.. I'm against food waste, but I don't want to eat the contents of someone else's recycling efforts when I'm paying top prices. This mess cost the same as the Sweet and Sour Prawns.The Special Fried Rice was, despite being served at home within 10 minutes of the order being assembled and packed, a congealed turgid block of assorted scraps, which was deeply unpleasant both to the eye and the tastebuds. £4.50.Total cost for 2 plates of disappointment £22.80.Even the free Prawn Crackers were soggy and stale. This miserable excuse for Chinese food was an absolute rip-off.Needless to say, we won't be using their takeaway again!I'd sooner do without their Chinese cuisine if this is the best they can do.

My partner and I visited here for the 2nd time today and once again the food was amazing, completely over indulged but it's so worth it!!Staff attentive, Service was good and food was brought out quickly in between courses.Will defo be returning very soon and recommend people to try crown city.

Very good service . Nice meal . Very small car park . Best to park in the road . Will go there again

We are local to this Chinese. We just collected a very poor takeaway. Poorly cooked and cheap ingredients. We don't use this place a lot now because this seems to be the norm.

Food ok nothing to write home about. Menu not varied enough and whopper service charge.Not impressed no music and very expensive

Flew down from Aberdeen for a catch up with mates and for my sisters 50th at Crown City.The staff were aware that our arrival was a surprise and went along with the plan. They hid me and my partner until my sister arrived.We ordered from the a la carte menu. Everything was fresh, well cooked and very tasty. The duck pancakes, sizzling seafood and the dumplings were fantastic.Service was at the right pace. We arrived at 5pm and left at 9.30pm. We did not feel rushed or hassled in anyway.Really good night out and at reasonable prices for the quality

Short drive from Maidstone. The staff make a lot of effort to make you feel welcome. I have been quite critical of Chinese food that tastes out of a sweet and sour tin before, but all this food was really nice, tasted fresh and original. Yummy! Would definitely recommend! Especially the tea smoked shredded chicken for a starter.

The food was fine, set meals starting at £21pp. The bad news was a 10% service charge, but also that ALL drinks were bottles only. A large lime/soda turned out to cost £8 (4 bottles at £2 a pop), so our moderate drinks consumption ended up costing more then the food. There was also a large party present with unruly small kids that insisted on running back and forward through the restaurant without being checked on a Saturday night. A bit scary when they bump into waiters carrying sizzling hot food past you.

We booked for 15 people for our sons 18th Birthday celebration. Family and friends. Saturday night. The staff were very accommodating and happy to discuss the menu in advance with us to ensure that our evening was the best that they could offer. They were very honest and open with us, stating that they only had two chefs and that for us to ensure the food all came out together, especially as it would be a busy night and we were a large party, a set menu the same for each of us would be the best option. There were items on their set menu that would not suit some of our party and the staff were so lovely at assisting us with some slight amendments to suit both us and the restaurant. We were allowed to decorate the table and the staff were happy to sort out the cake that we brought. Lighting the candles and bringing to the birthday boy after the meal finished. Providing plates, cutlery and a knife to cut it. The food was plentiful, really delicious and each person enjoyed their meal. The timing of the gaps between each course was perfect for us. Allowing our food to go down and also time to socialise. The staff were attentive and regularly cleared empty glasses etc from the table. It was a memorable night and one made so by the venue. The cost is perfectly acceptable and in line with what you would expect from a Chinese restaurant. They were happy to provide free tap water. I would definitely recommend and if you are a larger party visiting for a special occasion, do not feel shy in discussing the event with them in advance to get the best experience. They can only do so much as they are not a large establishment but they are so willing to try their very best.

Great food. All freshly cooked to order and as much as you would like.. We usually go weekdays and sometimes we are the only ones in there so lacking ambience. I guess it is busier evenings and weekends..

The staff were absolutely terrible, zero respect to their customers at all! Almost laughable, she took our food order and was so sarcastic and rude she rolled her eyes constantly and I watch on another table a lady ordered Chinese tea and the waitress laughed in her face, it was so strange to watch such terrible service! Very expensive aswell! Will definitely not be returning!!

Had lunch today, excellent food, there were 20 of us, the food just kept coming. Highest quality, everyone enjoyed it. We will be back, if you will have us, please. Staff very attentive and welcoming. We live local and our go to restaurant, good take away service also.

Went for supper. Ordered what should be fairly easy fare for a competent chinese restaurant. Wonton soup was ok but pricey given the quantity provided. Cantonese duck and Cantonese pork are dishes that if you have them available in the kitchen require nil preparation. You literally chunk them up and put them on a plate. They had the dishes on the menu but clearly not in the kitchen. What they served up was not recognisable as either Cantonese pork or Cantonese duck. If you have the money for petrol go to Soho instead. This is over priced food not particularly well prepared. The service isnt brilliant either.

Food was out of this world...service a little slow. And really not that attentive. I would highly recommend the soft shell crab for an appetiser £12.80

Have been a few times now and it just gets better. The staff are really welcoming and very helpful. The food is freshly cooked to order and plentiful. They are attentitive but don't rush you. Highly recommended

Would give it 4 star for the food, but service very dissapointing. Food is great, but you maybe in for a wait if the take away side of their business is busy. We arrived at 6.45. starters came nice and quickly, then had to wait over half an hour for our next course ( and there were only 2 other tables busy in the restaurant.).
