  “We ordered 2x duck fried rice meals and a jug of tap water. Total came to 32 pounds and cash payment was preferred. The meal was very tasty but not too hot (seemed to have been heated in a microwave). We struggled a bit with getting the meat off the bones but I think you can order a boneless option. But when I looked at the prices on the shop window when leaving I realised the duck meal is priced at 13.50 so a bit unsure what extras were added to our bill.”

  “The best roast duck I’ve ever eaten in my life. It was absolutely bursting with flavour. The staff were lovely and helped answer some questions we had about the menu. Highly recommended for anyone visiting York. Try the stuffed tofu!”

  “Had the mixed 3 meat rice with siew yuk, charsiu and duck. All three meats were cooked really well and the chilli oil paste paired so nicely with everything. It is a bit pricey, but the portions are huge and honestly enough to share between two people. Service was a little slow, but for me the food definitely made up for it.”

  “An absolute must-visit in York. The staff were so friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. We didn’t have much time before our train, but we knew we had to stop here, and the team were incredibly accommodating, helping us decide what to order without making us feel rushed. And wow, I’ve genuinely never had duck like it. We started with the pancakes, which were amazing, alongside some perfectly crispy, delicious gyoza. Then came the duck with fried rice, and I honestly haven’t stopped thinking about it since. I’ll absolutely be back and would highly recommend this place whether you’re visiting York or lucky enough to live there.”

  “I’m so lucky to have found this place on Google on my last night in York!!! Everything was amazing! All the meat we had was really tasty, and the noodles were great as well. The man at the counter who took my order was very nice and polite. The restaurant is clean and the price is reasonable. If you’re looking for Chinese food, please don’t miss this place! Highly recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻”

  “The best place I’ve eaten in York since moving here. Crispy duck was super flavorful, as was the soy chicken. It is bone in but the meat is so tender it doesn’t matter, slides right off. The prawn dumplings were delicious and the dumpling wasn’t a cheap watery texture. The people running the place are very nice, especially the older gentleman. Will be coming back!”

  “One of the top tier Duck restaurants that you should definitely try. My best spot so far in the UK!!! I went with two other friends of mine and we all agree that the dishes here, either in terms of quality or quantity, are all very much reasonable, pleasurable. It’s, without no doubt, gonna make you pleased. We came in pretty late at night, around 40 minutes before the closure, but the ladies there were still very welcomed, giving us a lot of recommendations and the food came out pretty fast I must say. Albeit the fast time served, the food was still piping hot, fresh, especially the duck, which was very juicy and flavourfulled. We got so stuffed by the end of the dinner but still craving for more. If I have another chance, I would definitely come back and introduce more to my friends. Lovely meals and lovely people.”

  “This husband and wife run place reminds me of Hong Kong, with its no frills interior and serve yourself table settings. We ordered the duck and pickled vegetable soup, the three roast meats platter, braised lettuce with oyster sauce, and plain fried noodles. The soup had lots of duck in a traditional cornflour thickened broth, although the vegetables didn't taste particularly pickled, so it was missing the expected sour notes. The roast meats were very good, especially the roast duck and crispy pork belly. The char siu was OK; a little dry and not the most flavourful version I've had. The braised lettuce and stir-fried noodles were both decent. Overall, an enjoyable, authentic restaurant for Cantonese food in York.”
