    Our host looked after us really well. Enjoyed the food - we had a banquet for 4 - very tasty. Bring your own drink. Well worth a visit.

    The food is very tasty and above average, although in some aspects service was lacking. The waitress seemed a little bit bone idle and didn’t come over and ask us if everything was ok, if we wanted drinks etc... the owner on the other hand is a natural when it comes to customer service, very friendly and polite. The restaurant itself is decorated nicely, although a little cold. It’s not great when staff (waitress, delivery driver) are just stood around talking, and customers were waving to get her attention. Other than that.. the food was lovely, would visit again.

    Has to be the best Chinese I've had in years Definitely the best for a good 6 mile radius. Food was very tasty, well presented and staff were very friendly. Alcohol options were a little limited but food made up for it. Will definitely be going back

    We go here every couple of weeks as the food is good and a welcoming environment and staff. My sister and I went tonight and ordered from the early bird menu which is very reasonable prices and the amount that you recieve is more than fulfilling. Four young girls were on duty with a young girl called Natalie was in charge. All I can say is well done it's the best night I've had in there for a long time it's come to life. See you next week.

    Hi, I am still waiting for the refund for the order & payment taken online on the Tuesday 5th April , when you were closed. It is for Β£26.82. Although you rang on the day to apologise for the issue with the online ordering you since have ignored all my calls, email etc literally robbing me.

    It used to be way better and way nicer but I went last week and it was awful not as nice not as big not as good and just a bad experience I went 1-3-4 years ago and it was incredible I believe the owner has changed and has just made it way worse and now is a horrible place to eat

  • 5/5 Bev C. 2 years ago on Google
    Pre booked a table. Very courteous staff, really went out of their way to ensure we had a great meal. We had the banquet for four, which was varied and very satisfying. We took our own drinks which could be kept in a fridge. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Steve S. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here as a group of 12. The front of house staff are first class and that was also matched with the great food served. All 12 of us thoroughly enjoyed everything about the place. We will return for sure...

    Food were nice, but nothing special so because of that it was quite expensive. The staff were amazing though and really good service

  • 3/5 Angela B. 1 year ago on Google
    Not as good as expected from a restaurant with a good rep, spring rolls and prawn crackers were a disappointment seemed like the bog standard cheap versions. Beef curry wasn't that good although my partners sweet sour chicken looked nice.

    Well disappointed, used a few time recently, delivery only, on this occasion waited ages, turned up, delivery driver had gone to the wrong address, accepted the order to find it wasn't complete and cold ! Rang up for missing item, 10 mins it will be there she said, well 30 mins later still no joy, we ate what we had (warmed up) while waiting, rang again got the surprised it hadn't arrived line, asked for a refund, which was agreed as paid online, guess what, no refund and no missing item, bad customer service probably won't use again .. UPDATE! Received refund a couple of days later, thankyou

    Just picked up a takeaway. Chicken foo yung with boiled rice. Absolutely lovely. As good as I've had. Full of quality chicken, not greasy and tasty. Spot on.

    Very good food and service and value for money would recommend

  • 3/5 ZoSo The Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Went on a Friday night, just one couple in there at time of visit. That said, it's surprisingly small since the refurb, which strangely enlarged the kitchen and reduced the seating area. Pretty expensive for what we had, considering it's Shipley and we could have eaten in a restaurant with much better surroundings at no extra cost.

    Great Place, a little cramped but the food is absolutely amazing and well worth the try

  • 2/5 Jordan M. 1 year ago on Google
    This place used to be really good. I tryed it tonight again for the 1st time, and wow I would be so embarrassed if inwas the chef. The quality of the food used is shocking I got a special fried rice the beef is just bits of fat. I asked for beef in ok sauce and they sent crispy beef in ok sauce but wasn't too bathad until I opened it and the pieces were near black and rock rock hard also had a heap of onion skin In with the veg. The chips were like dregs of bag all small like 1 inch and hard as he'll really gone down hill and to say I spent Β£32 it's more than a disappointment. Never again

    Food was nice and reasonably priced, staff were welcoming and friendly, meals came out separately although within minutes of each other, could do with adequate heating in the place, would of been 5 stars other than that.

  • 5/5 Faye G. 5 months ago on Google
    The food was lovely and fresh. Very tasty. We had the starter platter, chicken and sweetcorn soup. Kung po chicken, satay chicken, and chicken chow mein. I could not fault the food or the service. Will definitely be going again.

    The food was rubbish chips rock hard and spring rolls was hard could have put a window through with them. Very cramped and a strange atmosphere. Wouldn’t go again waste of money
