"Super delicious and fresh food, Spring rolls were fried nicely, they weren't oily and great quality! I recommend the sweet and sour meats which are nicely battered and are not drowning in sauce. Service is also nice 5/5 ⭐"

"Lovely food. Friendly staff. Can’t go wrong with a decent Chinese! The only thing I’d change is the flashing neon light above the wine wall. I’d just have it on red to match the decor."
