  “I ordered a takeaway today, and unfortunately the food was very disappointing. The chow mein had no salt and tasted completely bland. Even the vegetables lacked flavor and seemed under-seasoned. Overall, the meal was quite tasteless and did not meet expectations.”

  “This is hands down my favourite restaurant. I almost don’t want people to find out about it! The food is always delicious—it has been since I first started coming here in 2018/19, and it never disappoints. I don’t have time to go there anymore but I will order a take away anytime I can. ❤️”

  “Nicer looking place inside the restaurant than the tired facade would have you believe. Service was really prompt. We tried several dishes. Spare ribs were a bit meh but the won ton soup was excellent. Star of the show was the crispy duck dish. A very solid and reasonably priced Chinese meal.”

  “Overall, it was great in terms of the timing that dishes coming and freshness of those. Also the tastes were not compromised at all. The service was great - though I was a bit worried that the server didn’t take a note as we ordered 4 main dishes and 3 different rices and chaw mien - noodle. However it came as ordered. We arrived very late around 8pm there were few tables with us - atmosphere was cozy and like a Chinese restaurant that loved by its neighbors. We completed the first order and added few more as we were not full and it came with a very plenty amount of foods that comes. Amazing services 4.8/5.0”

  “My first experience buying a proper Chinese takeaway meal here in the UK. As a person who often cooks Chinese meals at home, let me say this: this £7,5 special fried rice is BANG ON THE SPOT. The wok hei, the meat, the spices - just an explosion in your mouth. The service was exceptionally quick - I just waited for about 3 minutes on a wee couch inside, and got what I ordered. Massive cheers to Sun Ya!”

  “I live nearby and tried this restaurant for the first time. In overall my experience was OK. Food is authentic and made with fresh and special ingredients. The Jasmine Tea is an amazing deal, you get a proper quality fresh tea for an excellent price. There is a little bit communication issue with the waiter lady but she is apologetic. The portion sizes and prices are satisfying. Decoration and the environment are okay, could be improved. I want to try some other dishes next time.”

  “We stumble upon this resto after travelling from Gatwick Airport. We were craving for Chinese food and it did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was exceptionally good and reasonably priced.”

  “Came across this restaurant while going home from Woolwich. Decided to order some takeout. The service was good. The attendant was chatty and helpful. Ordered special fried rice with prawns in sweet and sour sauce. But my partner’s order was mixed up somehow (might have been our fault). The food was okay. The sauce had this strong smell of something. I bet the culprit is one of the following listed on their allergy notice (sulphur dioxide, sulphites & lupins). The rice was good. The chicken was a bit too oily. The meal also came with prawn crackers and fortune cookies of course. Might go again just for the rice.”

  “We were driving by, I saw “Sun Ya” and we went back to have dinner there. It was very good! And that Philipino or maybe Thai server was very very nice! She is a great plus to this restaurant, she is kind and friendly! A very good restaurant in East London. After many reviews (good and bad) we tried and liked. You enter the restaurant through the side, and you can see that they have a take away area which is great for those days you want to treat yourself but want to stay home to watch a good movie. I have left the updated menu on the last photo. The only thing I would say that to be in East London, prices go a bit up and compare almost to what you’d pay in zone 1 which is quite crazy. From £8-15 for a dish. In china town you find dishes for £6-£6.90. We got: Prawn(shrimp) Chow Mein Ku Pong Chilli Beef Egg fried rice (delicious)”

  “Yesterday was the first time I had ever visited this restaurant. I made a booking very late via Google on Friday for myself and a few friends to go here for something to eat before we ventured down to The British Oak for their Ska night. The restaurant was empty when I arrived but it soon filled up - they were fully booked and even had to turn people away! The restaurant is very clean, decorated beautifully and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food was faaantastic - very fresh and not at all greasy like some places I have been to. We really dived into the menu and the meal (for 6 of us) came to around £143 which divided between us all worked out around £23 each - and that included beer and a couple of bottles of wine. Very reasonable indeed. Certainly recommend a visit if you're looking for somewhere to eat. I look forward to returning there myself some day. Wonderful!”
