Delicious food and exceptional service. The best Chinese in years. The food had lots of flavour without being heavy. Crispy won ton, Cantonese spring roles and prawn toast starters were wonderful. Main courses were equally delicious (Szechuan crispy beef and crispy chicken, sweet and sour crispy chicken and honey and spices crispy chicken). Very attentive service. Can only recommend!
Lovely restaurant, friendly and helpful staff. Good atmosphere. Had a view of the sea. Delicious food. We had mixed starters, prawn chow mein in oyster sauce, and fried mushrooms. Fantastic taste and presentation. Definitely recommend.
Dined in yesterday and my family and I simply couldn’t fault it! The servers were absolutely spot on, friendly and attentive especially with my daughter as she is gluten free, thank you Daisy for making her feel so welcome. The food was delicious, super fresh and piping hot with lots of flavour even in my daughter’s food. We were recommended by locals and we definitely would come back again!
The restaurant was huge but empty, I saw a few people who seemed to be picking up takeaways. Servers were very good but unfortunately the food had no flavour and I left without finishing my main meal. My rice had a black hair in it and when I used the bathroom the female toilet you have to pass by stank of stale cigarettes.
I just recently dined here, TWICE! Over the weekend. The food especially smokey beef/chicken, salt & pepper prawns, garlic scallops and spring onion lobster was incredible, exceeding my expectations. The food here reminded me of home as I’m from South East Asia. Service was exceptional and staff were attentive to our needs even though they were very busy. 100% recommend this restaurant for food lovers!
