I haven’t even eaten yet, but the toilets are the cleanest toilets I’ve ever been in my entire life, no smell, no stickiness, just clean 🤌🏾✨. I’ll add another review when I finish the food, but according to the customers behind me, I quote “ It was succulent “. Seeing Duck Spring rolls on the menu was a nice surprise too, so I ordered. I can’t wait to see 😍

A lovely family owned restaurant with large menu and fresh delicious food. Staff were very friendly. Food took a while coming but they had a chef down. Would still recommend.

First time visit, amazing food & service. Dropped by here this week with my girlfriend, so glad we did, it'll definitely become a regular spot for us from now on. The restaurant has a nice decor/furniture to create a great setting whilst dining in. We shared a couple of starters - beef skewers & duck spring rolls - which were lovely. For a main, I had a sweet chicken dish with rice off the speciality dishes section and it was absolutely beautiful. My girlfriend had an equally as tasty vegetable dish. Finished off our meal with some ice cream. Staff were good too - one guy especially who brought over our food was so nice & chatty & we shared a joke with. Every single thing about our first time here was excellent. Keep up the good work & we'll be back for more soon. Many thanks.
