Food was very good but be careful!! Try to charge us for a dish we never had bill was £212 for 4 people they brought me another bill for £192 which was correct amount but then the lady tried to charge me the £212 when we said they got very upset and said was take away price and was no takeaway price written on the bill Very disappointing tbh

I ordered a takeaway on site, the food arrived very quickly which was a surprise, as I had asked for a dish to be extra spicy. My Sechuan ribs were not extra spicy and the meat was tough. Special fried rice was not fried, and lacking in the mixed meat and veg which is supposed to make it 'special'. I am hungry and disappointed.

The food was a huge disappointment, sadly. We travelled 25+ miles to lunch here based on the great reviews this restaurant has had. We ordered two of their most expensive dishes: the sizzling prawns in ginger and spring onion and the sizzling fillet steak in black pepper sauce, together with special rice. The 'fillet steak' dish had no discernible flavour and the 'steak' had a spongy mousse-like texture, perhaps a result of the use of a meat tenderising agent? The sizzling prawn dish was over-loaded with onion, hardly any ginger and the spring onion was just a few bits of leaf. The rice was bland, over-cooked, contained one shrimp, a lot of egg and some very dried out char siu pork. The portion size was meagre for £8.50. We asked for some soy sauce and chilli oil to punch some flavour into the dishes and were charged £2.00 for a tablespoon of the chilli oil! Nothing authentic about our food........ but the jasmine tea was lovely. We will not return and on the basis of our experience, we can not recommend lunchtime dining.

Seven of us went for the buffet style menu. There was quite a range of choices, and something for everyone. We didn't have to wait long for the appetisers. The presentation of the food was very good. We had various dishes such as spring rolls, prawn toast, sweet honey ribs etc. The main dish we chose was lamb and pancakes. It was all eaten. Following the lamb, we chose dishes such as beef noodles, egg fried rice, crispy beef. Although the food doesn't look much, it is quite filling. We all had a dessert each. I chose the frozen lemon dessert. Which was quite refreshing after the food. The quality of the food is fresh and much better than any takeaway in the area. The servers were very polite and friendly. Everything was 5 star at this restaurant, from the service to the food. Even the toilets were spotlessly clean. Price wise it's fairly expensive but for the quality and quantity its justifiable. I would definitely visit again

Very disappointed by standard of takeaway/ poor value for money. Ordered set meal B 2 and the duck was inedible. Hard and chewy and looked as if it been recycled from lunchtime. Other dishes were tasteless and had to search for the prawns in the sizzling ginger and spring onion dish. Feeling ripped off and not inclined to re- visit anytime soon. Used to be good local go to choice.

The staff were attentive, without the “hovering” you get at some Chinese restaurants. Most important though was that the food was delicious. Highly recommended.

1st time we have visited these restaurant. We decided to go just out of the blue. And glad we did. We went on Sunday early evening and easy to park . We was warmly welcome as it had just opened. We was shown to several tables and we choose to sit near the window. It didn’t take long before people for there takeaways and for restaurant to fill up. So we ordered soft drinks. we opted for Mixed Hot Hors D'oeuvers for 2 sharing. And we was not disappointed, my wife choose Deep fried shredded beef in chilli sauce placed in 2 nests. ( that seemed like poppadoms) it was piping hot and light very tasty. I opted for King Prawns Peking style (ginger and garlic sauce) good amount of king Prawns. Now I've had quite of these dishes from various Chinese restaurants. But this was top light creamy with nice pieces of ginger! Bought out on hot sizzling pan. And we both share King prawn fried noodles. Again hot cook just right. as times you can taste that they have been burnt but not here. I finished off with banana fritters with honey and scoop of ice cream. The fritters were very hot with light batter lovely deserted to finish of lovely meal. Great service. With Excellent friendly staff. Would recommend and are go again.

Been here countless times. Food and service are great, but I didnt give them 5 stars because they recently started adding a service charge. I cant help but feel robbed whenever restaurants do this. And in addition, the waitress asked if i would like to leave a tip? So what was the service charge for??

We went for lunch and decided to have the house set menu (Classic - A) so we could try different dishes. This menu has a combination of starter and mains: - Starters - satay chicken, honey ribs, crispy seaweed, butterfly praws and spring rolls - Middle dish - aromatic crispy duck with panckackes, cucumber, spring onion and hoi sin sauce - Mains - Stir fried chicken with cashew nuts in yellow bean sauce, stir fried king prawns with mixed vegetables and sizzling beef with green pepper in black bean sauce. Served with special fried rice. For the money paid, the servings were enormous and made us feel full! All the dishes were super tasty, but our favourite was the sizzling beef dish, which can to the table..sizzling... and perfectly cooked with an amazing sauce. One of the best chinese resturants in the area, recommend!

Disappointed with my meal last night. I had the spring rolls to start with but they were tiny spring rolls which meant all pastry and hardly any filling. Not worth £6. Main was Stir-fry beef and mushrooms. The beef was nice but the whole dish lacked any flavour. My egg fried rice was ok. My friend who ordered a different main and rice was also disappointed with her meal. One thing we both commented on was how quick the food was prepared. Makes me think it wasn't cooked fresh to order!

Consistently very good over many years. Polite, friendly and considerate service and I've watched them sanitize chairs after use so the take covid safety seriously. Menu is quite extensive tho avoids the more ethnic dishes, so no pigs trotters or tripe which I admit I avoid myself. Tho I am not vegetarian perhaps they could have more options tho the aubergine in sea spice sauce is good if you are looking for a veg dish with more impact.
