Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the noodles and chow mein, with the duck chow mein, chicken chow mein and fu jian fried rice described as very good and quite authentic tasting. Close behind is the duck, whether served with plum sauce or as aromatic duck with pancakes that children enjoyed, and the salt and pepper chips also earn praise. Several describe the food as the best Chinese they have had, and a takeaway order was ready within the time given. Service is called very good by a few, including a large group that was not kept waiting long, though one reviewer found the waitress unenthusiastic. Reviewers also mention a play area at the back that the kids loved. The main complaint is flavour: two reviewers found recent meals tasteless, one describing a curry sauce as if made with water, salt and pepper chicken with no flavour, and an unusual sweet and sour sauce, with only the noodles and chicken balls rated okay. One group of ten found the portions huge and wished for a warning, though leftovers could be taken away.

“We enjoyed eating here with our children. We had aromatic duck with pancakes, fu jian fried rice and chicken chow mein. The rice and noodles were excellent (quite authentic tasting) and the kids enjoyed eating the duck pancakes. The kids loved the play area at the back!”

“Absolutely fantastic food. This is my first visit in a few years but the standard of food and hospitality are as high as it ever was. I took a few friends and they all said it was the best Chinese style food that they'd ever had.”
