"First time here and it did not disappoint! Celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary dinner here and loved every single dish we ordered. The service was also top-notch! We got given a free dessert saying “happy anniversary” at the end of the night. Highly recommend and will absolutely be back soon!"
"Very good and big portions! The chicken and corn dumplings were delicious and some of the best dumplings I’ve had. The half chicken and prawn curry were so good too. Even though it was completely full the foo still came fast. Great service!"
