Tilly Hall ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Came here for dinner, was wonderful. Had duck pancakes and crispy squid for starter. Can’t fault either! Then yellow noodle (prawn) and crispy beef for mains. Decent portion size and really really tasty with good amount of meat. …
Victoria Follon ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Booked for a meal with my sister last week. The waiter was friendly & we were shown to our table promptly. The food was amazing. Honestly one of the nicest meals I've had in a long time. …
Tom Hammett ⭐⭐⭐
Food was spectacular. The lady who seated us was lovely and attentive. The lady who served us was very slow, forgetful and didn't pay us much attention. The restaurant is nice, has a weird nightclub vibe that got moodier around 9pm when the lights dimmed.
Sarah Willoughby-kitching ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just ate here this evening for my daughter 19th Birthday it was a party of 7. The food was absolutely delicious, honestly the best sweet & sour chicken I have ever had. Everyone loved the food. The waiter was so sweet and attentive. Great …
Peter ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great Asian inspired food freshly cooked, fantastic service. Only niggle is that the tables are packed in, despite having tables upstairs. But would definitely recommend.
G Finch ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Booked for 4 people today and our concensus is that it was one of the best Sunday Lunches that we have had, ever. Everything cooked to perfection and exceedingly tasty! Lovely decor too. Can highly recommend giving this newly opened hostelry a try.
