What customers say?

“ What a lovely surprise. The photo shows we ate everything. The spicy prawns, Cantonese fillet steak and yeueng chu rice were fantastic. We were looked after by a great team. Clearly a well liked restaurant, at 17:30 on a Sunday it was full. There is some parking on site but we just used an Uber. We had a choice of fixed price all you can eat feast or the ala carte which we chose. Great selection of drinks. ”

“ Honestly, this is some of the best food you will ever eat! We went as a party of 8 including 2 children. Welcoming and the service was fantastic. We ordered some share platters at first and the ribs and satay skewers were cooked fresh and really tasty. Not to also mention that the spring rolls were cooked fresh too. They didnt rush us and the service was top tier. We all ordered different mains with sides of fried rice, Singapore noodles, soft noodles. This may sound crazy but even the fried rice was amazing and really tasty. Our mains were generous and the special curry and crispy shredded beef were standout for me. In fact all of us tried each others meals and everyone was so fresh and tasty. Even one of the kids who is really picky enjoyed his katsu chicken. I cant speak highly enough of the food and the service we recieved. We obviously had ordered far too much and they gladly bagged up what was left for us. If you are planning for chinese food honestly try this place as its the best, not only warrington but the northwest. Can't wait to go back! ”

“ The food was absolutely amazing, the staff were incredible, so kind, patient & welcoming. Atmosphere nice & chilled. It was my daughter's birthday she got a free meal & dessert. They put a birthday song for her, it was so special. Our bill was nearly £200 including cocktails as a family of five, it was worth it because the food was excellent. Parking was convenient right next to the restaurant & we were lucky to find spaces available maybe because it was a sunday. I would definately recommend this place for special occassions like birthdays. ”
