The meat spring rolls were delightful, and I also ordered the salt and pepper chicken wings, but they turned out to be thin, crispy chicken bites instead. The fillet steak in garlic onion sauce with bean sprouts was absolutely beautiful. While I appreciate good food, I go to restaurants to relax, and it was quite cold inside—freezing, actually. The service lacked a friendly touch; I had to wait a while for everything, which was disappointing. Despite there being only two tables to serve, the food was nice when it eventually arrived. Thanks for the lovely dishes, but I likely won't return as it didn't feel like a welcoming place, possibly due to having just one waitress. Food: 4, Service: 3, Atmosphere: 2.

However, the food was quite bland and lacking in flavor, making it feel overpriced for what was offered. Additionally, there were no vegetarian or vegan options available, and the staff seemed to struggle with understanding veganism and even basic English at times. There are definitely better dining alternatives in the area. I visited once and won't be returning. Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3
