“Had an absolutely wonderful meal here today. Every dish we tried was packed with flavour and cooked to perfection. I was especially impressed by the roast duck, which was served over a generous portion of fluffy rice. …”

“Ordered spicy beef shin with jellyfish, far too salty when it should be and asked waiter do something about it , she says that’s the way it is ! Paid 20 pounds for the dish , not happy with it at all !”

“This place took me straight back to Hong Kong. Crispy, juicy roasted duck, flavorful rice with a sweet-savory sauce, and free green tea as soon as you’re seated. Meat lovers will love it. Superb!”

“Recommended by a colleague who used to study in Belfast and decided to give it a try during our short trip. As Cantonese, we found the food served at this place to be quite traditional and authentic. The bbq platter was amazing, and we enjoyed the Char Siu (bbq pork) and bbq wings in particular. The two stir-fried rice noodles (braised beef and seafood) were both full of flavors. The egg fried rice was super comforting and went well with the bbq meats.”
