    Authentic Beijing hot, mouth-tingling spiced dishes - the menu is focused and comprises a list of "best of" favourites from China. Not to downplay the rest of the menu, our favourite is the spicy fish rice -- inviting and fragrant, with Beijing's characteristic mouth-numbing chilli (which fortunately, the amount of chillies CAN be adjusted for the less adventurous). All dishes come with chinese sprouts and neutral egg-based soup to counter balance the fiery main dish. Portions are touted as generous, which is accurate; however, I would argue that the dishes are overblown in it's size. Perhaps the proprietors should offer smaller options. Overall, the cuisine is authentic, engaging and intriguing for the palette. Worth at least a visit - chances are that you may be tempted to come back.

    As an Asian, I was really happy to find an authentic Chinese restaurant like this in Bristol city. Food was yummy and stayed true to what proper Chinese food should taste like. Pricing is very reasonable as well given the generous portion and taste. Card is accepted although there is a 5% discount for using cash. Highly recommended, just make sure to get there before peak meal times as restaurant gets packed very quickly due to limited seating.

    Delicious food. So tasty and flavorful. I had the fish noodles with sweet potato noodles. You scan a QR code to order and are able to choose the level of spice you’d like. I’d recommend at least a 2. Cash is preferred here.

    Sitting in the rain eating spicy delicious broth. What could be better. Really good value. You could easily split one between two with an extra order of rice. I was thinking it would be packed with noodles and cabbage because they are cheap but it was packed with seafood, meat, and fish cake!! It is spicy. Service was excellent. Only complaint is squid was a little over cooked.

    Just what I needed on a cloudy, wet, post- bank holiday Tuesday after a wonderful two-hour city walking tour. The beef hot pot was delicious and the service uncomplicated, efficient and friendly. Highly recommend.

    A little family run restaurant. The boss lady is friendly and helpful, and very passionate about what they do. The food? Delicious using fresh ingredients, generous and well priced. The hot pots are a must try! A great place to taste northern flavours. I look forward to visiting again the next time I’m in Bristol.

    Great tradition Chinese food. The restaurant only only holds about 18 people. So there may be a wait..my only suggestion is to have more bottled tea options besides the overly sweet black tea with raisins.

    Stripped back cafe vibe inside with an extremely authentic approach to Chinese food. Everyone inside speaking the native tongue, customers and staff, no western menu adjustments to cater for a lightened palette. We ordered the seafood clay pot and the vegan tofu clay pot, both were very good. The broth was full of flavour, perfectly seasoned, and there was even pickled bean sprouts that came on the side. The vegan tofu noodles looked incredible, will be coming back to try them. Also noticed they have an even cheaper lunch menu (prices are already very reasonable). Would highly recommend!

    Genuine Chinese food! The slow cooked beef was so tender and the broth was very rich. Dumplings are just like the ones my mother makes back in Asia. 很好吃😋

    We had a decent late lunch for two last weekend. The spicy sliced beef cooking pot was refreshing, we ordered medium level of spicy but probably should try the more spicy option next time since the medium one still tasted too mild. The cooking pot came with rice as side dish, you can add rice for free if a bowl of it was not enough. I recommend the fried squids for appetizer, it had properly seasoned batter and the squids were perfect, not chewy at all.

    Amazing! Spicy fish cooking pot was deep, rich and spicy! Lovely flat noodles, cool Chinese soft drinks. Will definitely be back.

    HOLY SMOKES! I'm still sat in the restaurant leaving this review because I couldn't wait to rave about it! Small, family-run vibes. Cosy, minimal setting. The food was exceptional. Authentic, home-made hotpot style noodle and rice dishes served in GENEROUS portions (we love this) so you won't leave hungry. I had the Hot & Spicy tofu and enoki mushroom soup with noodles and my partner had the spicy fish soup with flat noodles. Everything was bursting with flavour and spice and so much love. We're both absolutely buzzing, it was perfect.

    Obsessed. The cooking pot dishes are made with a lot of love and care and tbh the main dish I always get is the lamb slice soup so that’s the main one I can comment on! The broth is delicious and natural, served with enoki mushrooms, Chinese cabbage/pal choi, noodles and of course the lamb. Really delicious, and generous portions. Staff very friendly and happy to cater to allergies (were very careful with my nut allergy).

    Excellent! Cant recommend enough :) Very generous portions for a good price. Food is good quality, made with love and too delicious. Served quickly. Friendly staff. There is a student vibe at lunch. Great place to go again!

    It was much busier than we had expected on a mid week lunch time and we were under the impression it was a quick diner. In fact this was a beautifully decorated restaurant with a very slow vibe, which we needed at the time. As I waited to be seated I ordered but sadly there was no mapo tofu on the day, so we’ll be returning for that. When we had both arrived we sat and our spring rolls were brought out. These were delicious and crispy, very good value too for the price as you got quite a few even though they were small. Our bowls were huge when they arrived, we spent our time slowly going through them, replenishing, hydrating. The bustling and busy restaurant allowed you to have a private conversation and allowed you to engage with the good vibes. I learnt my lesson (my girlfriend took the least spicy one citing it being my mistake) upon getting the spiciest Sichuan option but we will certainly come back again.

    Great food, the spicy broth has loads of flavour, depth to the flavour, tastes like it has been worked on for a long time. Will definitely be returning for some more lunch next time we're in Bristol.
