😐 Was really looking forward to eating here but it was such a disappointment. We had the squirrel fish, eggplant some noodles and pork belly. The noodles were just vinegar and the fish was not sweet at all, just sour. Staff was nice and the restaurant looked fresh but wouldn't go here again. People often mention duck, restaurant, ordered, nice, good,

    I consider this place is good Chinese restaurant in Stockholm. Convenience location near Gamla Stan station. You can walk just s few minutes to sightseeing around Gamla Stan after eating. Open all day

    The restaurant is located right by the old town (gamle stan) tourist area. We came in for a quick lunch bite without much expectation, but the dishes turned out pretty decent. We ordered from the menu featuring their signature dishes (特別菜). The seasonal special dong bo niu 東坡牛 (beef short-ribs with rice wine sauce) was tender and flavourful, while the lychee pork was a sweeter version of the Cantonese staple sweet and sour pork. Rice was complimentary too.

    I came to eat hotpot here. It was good even it was not a buffet. I would give more points if we could have more options of sauces and more portions of meat. Other dishes we ordered were so so. We ordered Beijing duck but it was not authentic as I ate in Beijing. It was a fried duck here. But overall were not bad

    Standard hotpot offering. Excellent variety and accompaniments, decent broth flavouring that does not carry on much into the food, so kind of basic hotpot experience. Still good though.

    The place is quite large, the atmosphere is a typical chineese restaurant in town. The staff is helpful and service minded. The food was tasty, and the portions were at a good amount.

    Ordered Peking duck, turns out it's just deep fried duck. Very misleading.

    It was a really nice restaurant with tasty meals. The prices were good also and the location was optimal. I’d love to visit again when next I’m in Stockholm.

    A nicely looking place, with very disappointing aperol spritz, Peking soup that tasted like mop water and a huge price tag. I hate to give bad reviews but this place has earned it

    I was quite disappointed. The picture of the Peking duck is so misleading, the duck we ordered was like deep fried in batter instead of those in the picture. My braised tofu was also a disappointment as the tofu was sour which has already turned bad, they did replace it after I commented. Actually all the dishes I ordered turned out not so nice at all. Items ordered, Peking duck, sweet sour pork, claypot tofu, spring roll, beef with peppers, dumpling soup. This is the first time we left more then half of the food uneaten.

    We go here all the time. The hotpot is unbeatable. We usually get the full hotpot menu with seafood. Really good selection of meats, veggies, sauces etc. Get the drink package with it aswell! Staff are also super nice, this is such a gem!

    Unfriendly staff, one of them did not even look at us when we wanted to order some more.. instead he played on his phone.. of course we gave no tip for that service. When this guy noticed that we gave no tip, he threw the cheque on the table and went away. Not even a goodbye or sth

    Während unseres Aufenthaltes in Stockholm waren wir im Formosa Essen. Die von uns gewählten Gerichte, frisches Gemüse mit Knoblauch und Hühnchen mit frischem Gemüse und Cashewkerne, waren sehr, sehr lecker. Auch die Bedienung war sehr nett und aufmerksam. Ich kann das Restaurant ohne Einschränkung weiterempfehlen.

    The best Chinese restaurant in northern Europe. I recommend it to you by my heart! I went there for dinner on 16th of February, 2018. It left a great memory to me and my friends. We ate the hot pot which was 198 kr/person. Quite reasonable price matches to the most traditional meat, vegatables, noodles, dumplings and hot pot sauces! I am grateful to treating us the dishes from hometown. Especially, the boss and waiters were very nice and they took care of guests politely even it was very busy at that evening. By the way, I advice you to book a table in advance if you want to visit this restaurant. Thank you all.
