“ Tiny wee place with little to no parking available most times but the food is fabulous, for some reason the take away is even better than the dine in food but that's just my opinion as the menu is different. Has to be in the top 3 chinese restaurants for taste I've ever been to. Well worth trying again and again and again. ”
“ Visited for lunch today, food was amazing. Chicken satay skewers, chicken curry and salt n chilli chips. Decent price will be back soon ”
“ Back again for some great food, the servers were very polite and engaging particularly as it was Chinese New Year. The dim sum was so good, and the other starter platter. All mains ordered were high quality! Lemon chicken, plum duck, ginger and spring onion chicken... oh my. Beautiful food! ”
“ Was recommended by my brother soup was very tasty chicken noodle lemon chicken and noodles was excellent plain ice cream and raspberry sauce. None of the dishes were scrimped and were delicious staff ensured you were attended to very well and were all welcoming and pleasant would definitely recommend. ”
“ Best chinese in Glasgow so far! The beef with asparagus and Szechuan vegetables are my favourite, full of 'wok hei'. Amazing meal especially for CNY. Duck was so-so, bit small for the high price. Next time we will try the sets. ”
“ The food is always top class here and with a nice variety of menu items you can stick with what you know or be a bit bolder and try something new. We went on a Sunday and they had a "Sunday Lunch" menu which had some really good options on it. Extensive drinks selection, friendly staff and always very clean. What I will say is that they bring you your food absolutely rapid so if you're wanting to take it easy and have a bit of a break between courses you might want to let them know!!!! Also always best to book! ”
