Food was lacking in flavour! Quite bland. Never seen green peppers in a chicken curry before. Prawn crackers in a colander/sieve. Curry sauce gloopy. Staff bit awkward lurking around whilst trying to relax and eat. Seemed a bit chaotic. Forgettable experience

While this may be the best Chinese in York, it is really quite poor. We will not return and cannot recommend

Had a great meal as a family of 6. There were a few language barriers but service overall was very good. Food was excellent, hot and tasty. Soups maybe a little too hot!! Enjoyed the meal very much

Absolutely horrible. Was given prawn crackers that were on someone else’s table before🤮. The food was bland and very tasteless. Ordered salt and pepper chips but came as normal chips with a few onions on them. Don’t recommend staff are very rude and speak little English. As well as this I asked for a glass of water and was given a glass of water with floaters in it. Definitely wouldn’t recommend. Was very underwhelmed after all the nice comments on here.

Really disappointed, I don't often visit York but have been here many times over many years, this time however the food quality has slipped massively. We shared s&p chicken, fried rice s&s chicken, chips and spring rolls. I've had better with the supermarket meal deals aside the fried rice. The service was fine albeit the staff running round like headless chickens. Lunch on a Thursday, busy already at 12pm. All I can think is changed hands since my last visit which must be pre COVID but never previously had any issues since 2007. I wouldn't return without seeing multiple recent decent reviews, maybe I should have checked trip advisor first before this visit rather than relying on past experience. 😪

We had 3 different main courses. All of them were either very greasy and/or without any taste. Nobody of us finished the meal. The staff was friendly and it's a nice litte place to sit. Also everything was clean. This also made me to rate it with 2 and not only with 1. But unfortunately over all for us a very disappointing experience especially after reading quite a few good comments. We saw that the people from the neighbour tables were eating all of it so I guess it was our very personal taste which was not met, however we would not go there again.

El personal era perfectamente agradable en Happy Valley y había un ambiente decente. Es bastante informal, más bien aparece mientras pasas caminando en lugar de reservar con anticipación para una cita nocturna.Desafortunadamente, la comida era muy mala. Tuvimos el entrante de fuente mixta y luego varios platos principales y me temo que a todo lo que comimos le faltaba sabor y el poco sabor que había no sabía bien. Mucha gente se entusiasma con este lugar, por lo que puede que seamos nosotros los que encontramos la comida pésima, pero pensé que valdría la pena destacarlo ante los demás, ya que no era una forma divertida de gastar 50.

On a recent visit to York came across Happy Valley, was not intending to have a Chinese this particular evening. Given it was a Tuesday evening with the Eat Out to Help Out scheme in place was struggling to find a reservation else where. This turned out to be in our favour because we had a lovely meal and now found a lovely Chinese restaurant for our next visit to York. We had the 3 course meal deal which was superb, lovely fresh ingredients and plenty of it (if you are not a big eater & feel embarrassed to leave any I suggest you ask for a smaller portion). Full credit to all the staff who have been working exceptionally hard during the Eat Out scheme. Keep up the good work and see you again

Def worth a visit. We went last night whilst in York on holiday. It is a small venue so I would say you need to book a table. There were 8 of us so we had a variety of dishes, each seemed freshly cooked. Superb value for money. The salt and pepper squid was beautiful.We over ordered as we had never been before so beware large portions.

It didn’t look much from the outside so shows that the high ratings are based just on service and food. And they were both great. As a group we mainly had the 3 or 4 course options which proved to be not only tastealicious but great value for money too. Every course was sublime and best ever. The staff were so polite and attentive and you couldn’t have asked for better. One downside was the lack of draught beer and the bottles were expensive. But the atmosphere was great. If I lived in York, this would be my go-to Chinese restaurant for sure. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

The special of 2 courses for £7.50 looked very inviting.A selection of soups to start and then a variety of traditional chinese meals for main, surprisingly including king prawns at no extra cost.The place was lovely and clean, the waiter was cheerful and chatty. Unfortunately we had misjudged our timing (and the portion sizes which were plentiful) so asked if we could take half away with us.He was more than happy to box it up for us straight away and brought our bill immediately.We will definitely be going back for a more leisurely lunch the next time we visit this beautiful city

This is by some distance the best dim sum in York, both in selection and quality. That doesn't mean its outstanding or world class dim sum, but it's good. Some of the other dishes are hit and miss - we liked the chicken chow mein with crispy noodles and Chinese greens with garlic sauce, but one of us group tried a prawn black bean and that was a bit lacking in flavour. But to be fair that was one only one disappointing item out of a number of dishes and dim sums, so get a range of stuff and share and you'll likely have a good meal.

Lovely place! Delicious food — spicy, hearty, and wholesome. Really rare to find such a good rich Chinese noodle soup available vegetarian (their default broth is meat-based but they offer vegetarian on request). All dishes we tried were excellent, served quickly, and good value for money. Great vibe to the place too — packed with students on a weeknight, bustling but not too noisy.

This is a great place to go for some lunch, they have a lunchtime menu so it's great if you want to sample some of the things off the menu just to try the restaurant out, I was the first customer in on a lunch service and they went to the market to buy eggs for the fried rice
