  “Very cold restaurant needs tablecloths. Service good. Food....? Not impressed with my beef curry very tasteless. Loved my veg spring roll starter. Felt like a takeaway when we walked in”

  “I ordered for a delivery, food was here in around 20 minutes, Singapore chowmain and house special curry with bbq salt and pepper ribs. Best Chinese food i have tasted in years, everything was cooked perfectly, the meat was lovely and tender and the curry had just the right amount of spices. Will definitely be using here for good now and would highly recommend 👌”

  “I gave this place a 2nd chance after a not great experience when it 1st reopened and all I can say is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FOOD, all hot and fresh i honestly have never ate so much. The staff are amazing and helpful. I would of gave 5 stars for food but the only down side is the curry sauce but thats my preference I like it spicy this is very mild but is nice, its just i like mine different. I would 100% be returning with my family. They was amazing with my 4 year old and they even have deserts on the buffet menu now which is an amazing extra 😀 so yes an amazing experience tonight , I dont think ill be eating for a while now tho im so full 😂😀”

  “Got the buffet mid-week, everything was cooked fresh to order! Didn't have to stand around like a typical buffet, the food is served in good portions to your table. Everything tasted UNREAL! Genuinely lovely food. Really nice waitress too! Definitely coming back. £28.50 per person for the buffet”

  “First time we have been since the new owners, absolutely delicious food, it is a bit more expensive now but well worth it. Staff were great with the kids and very attentive. New ordering system is simple to follow and food is all served fresh and hot. My son was a little disappointed that the fish tanks are gone 🤣🤦‍♀️”

  “Well, this wasn't what I was expecting. I generally avoid places with low Google ratings, but my parents love Chinese food and were staying at a nearby hotel. Walking in, I noticed that the restaurant looked completely different from the pictures online. It turns out they have recently taken over the restaurant and given it a complete makeover, as shown in the picture below. There are two menu options: à la carte or buffet. I've heard quite a bit about the buffet option. (Side note: you cannot take leftovers home if you choose the buffet, so don't think you can cheat the system by ordering a lot.) The soups were good—chicken and mushroom, and chicken and sweet corn with vegetables. For the mains, we had sweet-and-sour pork, Cantonese-style sweet-and-sour chicken balls, mixed meat special curry, chicken chow mein, egg fried rice, and chips. The curry tasted different from what I expected. I asked if the chef makes his curry sauce, and I was told that they do. It was nice, and there were plenty of pieces of meat in it. The sweet-and-sour pork Cantonese style and chicken chow mein were the standout dishes. I highly recommend them. You can thank me later! If they keep this up, I can see them reaching a 4.5 rating on Google.”
