The background music for a restaurant was a bit loud, the atmosphere was more like going into a bar. The lighting was too dark, we had to walk very carefully not to trip over. We had a large party so they have arranged a separate room, so that was good privacy. The food was okay, but for the price I was paying, I was expecting something better than that. However, the presentation was wonderful. I ordered a sweet sour pork, the meat so really dry and tough. The braised beef dish was quite a disappointment, the meat was not tender like how it should and the turnip was obviously not fresh and old felt like it’s been stored in the bridge for a long time). The hot sour soup only tasted vinegar, t...

The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the food is varied and delicious, catering to many different tastes and the staff ask about allergies before you order and bring corresponding menus. Tap water was offered regularly. We went on a Sunday night in August, the place was humming and obviously popular. The atmosphere was fine apart from the thump, thump, thump of their chosen brand of music. We were placed by a speaker, 3 out of 4 of our group had hearing aids and the noise level made conversation nigh on impossible. We were offered a another table and it was marginally better. This music did NOTHING to add to the atmosphere. We were going to add our usual 10% service charge but 12.5% is a...
Just celebrated my daughters GCSE results by coming here for fantastic meal with grandparents (her Candidate number was 1814 ! .The Scallops were to die for, Mongolian beef dish absolutely delicious, crispy shredded beef and all the other dishes were just prefect. To top it off we had some truly spectacular desserts complete with dry ice ! Service was exceptional. Staff all incredibly good natured and efficient and personable. Took photos, offered doggy bags, explained dishes. Really couldn't have made a better choice of restaurant. Thank you wonderful staff for making it such a nice special occasion x
Exceptionally expensive it’s got to be said unfortunately. You’ll read people’s reviews that say you’ll get cheaper and better high quality Chinese places in London. I’m Not surprised. Venue is lovely and you’re paying for that. Drinks more than the food It’s great for an experience and I’d recommend you try it once. Book a table now
Beautiful decor, excellent service and food was beyond delicious, so fresh and perfectly cooked. Such quality and attention to detail. Executed perfectly. Can’t wait to return.
Lovely place, we love coming here as a treat with the kids. They love the soft crab starter! Desserts were great with the dry ice affect. It's not cheap, but well worth it.
We had our registry office wedding lunch here for 9 of us. We had the 2 course lunch menu, and added on desserts afterwards. Lovely service and gorgeous food.
Brilliant place to eat even if it is expensive. The scenery inside, presentation and taste of food are all outstanding and the service is quick and caring Book a table now
The food is very good but portions are way too small for the price. The waiters speak Chinese which is great
Absolutely love this place. Has never disappointed.
