“ Always amazing, one of my favourite places to go in Colchester and have been lucky enough to go quite a few times recently for celebrations, by far and away the best Chinese I've had, the staff are always great and the food is stunning! Great portions sizes and there is always a buzz here giving the place a fantastic atmosphere! Can't wait for the next trip! ”

“ What a lovely restaurant. The service is friendly, a warm welcome and free cloak room service. I had doubts add to whether the children would eat much, however they certainly had their fill. The food, reasonably priced, is delicious. We had squid (not too spicy at all) which was so tender, not all chewy, as well as capital ribs. They were tasty and sweet. We also had duck, which was shredded at the table side - a nice touch. For our main, the rice was excellent - zero clumping, the noodles tasty and the chicken balls... oh my. The batter melts in your mouth. Certainly deserves the reputation it has - week done! ”
