"Love this place for the quality normally. Food 4/5 (The capital ribs usually fall off the bone but we had 2 portions this time with chewy pork. The mixed Dim Sum platter and vegetable spring rolls were nice but nothing amazing. The Schezuan Chicken, egg fried rice and Singapore noodles are recommended and very nice. Service: 2/5 (fast with no charisma or connection and a service charge of 12.5%! Optional...yes but you'll get attitude). Vibe: 3/5 (80s British-Chinese restaurant decor; nothing plush). Value: 3/5. £51/head is not worth it! Overall: I will go again but will clarify if the ribs will be as expected before ordering. With these prices, I won't be going back as much but that doesn't stop other people lining up outside on a Saturday evening! If you're keen, book in advance as it's very popular despite all of this."

"Visited this restaurant for lunch while visiting the theatre to watch Book of Mormon and it was brilliant. The restaurant is split between 4 floors and is big but the service is super quick. We also managed to get a seat with a minimal wait. We went for a mix of Dim Sum and mains for lunch. The dim sum tasted great and was generous. The mains were great, I went for a roasted pork rice and the portion was huge and tasted amazing! The prices were great compared to quality of the food which might be a reason why the place was full when we visited. Highly recommended!"

"Personally, the food tasted decent, the service was decent and the atmosphere was fine. But the portions however were a bit small for the prices they charged. They offer a wide variety of dishes which makes it a great place for larger parties for sure. The service was pretty slow, it took approximately an hour before we were served the first dishes. The plating and presentation were not as good as a lot of other places, since the plates were so much bigger than the food contained inside. So even though the portions could have been decent, it still didn't look so. The flavours were decent. The shrimps were however too salty and the vegetables were too bland but the overall tasted decent."

"The quality of food has dropped considerably compared to the price increase since the pandemic. In particular, the Crispy Orange Duck food was too shabby at the end of the season. It became so thin that I couldn't even taste the duck flavor. Instead of oranges, used lemons for decorations... It was delicious to eat with sliced ​​oranges.. Also, the price written on the receipt is only the total price, so I can't know the exact price. ."
