Quality Hong Kong style Chinese takeaway. Our food was cooked fresh to order and was super tasty without being too salty. I've ordered a few times and the food has always been ready promptly when we pick up and the staff are friendly

A very good chinese but more expensive compared to others in the local area. Ribs are far nicer than any others so may be worth choosing over others if you're a rib lover like myself. However, all menu items are £1-2 more expensive for similar quantities and generally similar quality than others in the local area. Outside of the excellent ribs everything else ive tried on the menu is similar to that found in other chinese takeaways. Very nice but a bit on the pricier side. Food arrived earlier than the just eat timer and the delivery woman was very polite

Food is fantastic, Expensive if you want a delivery.

Decent enough, not revolutionary but nice enough, I would return for sure. I would also recommend.
