Went here last week with a friend. Lovely clean place and the food was delicious, one of the best meals I've ever had. Will definitely come back.

Dropped in for what I thought would be a quick lunch but it took over one hour for just two courses. There was only one couple in the restaurant when I arrived at 12:30pm and I was seated in the somewhat dark and drab resaturant. I ordered dumplings to start and Kung Pao chicken with rice as a main. The dumplings were ok, nothing to write home about, a little dry but generally fine. The chicken dish was good and the portion of rice was enormous, enough for three people. I enjoyed the food, but it was drawn out over an hour on a Friday lunchtime. There was a lot of shouting coming from the kitchen from what appeared to be a very unhappy person. And one of the waiting staff wandered into the r... Ver carta
