Although the name and decor is Chinese 99% of the menu is Japanese. Mostly sushi that well known non Chinese treat. The table was sticky and the steamboat, just about the only Chinese thing on the menu, was provided with frozen ingredients. At 31€ for “all you can eat” you would have had to order everything several times to even approach the value of the price. I did not try the sushi but, from the look of it, it was mediocre at best. Save your money and go somewhere else.
We arrived and waited 90 mins for a table which is to be expected on a bank holiday. After sitting at the table for a further 90 mins we have had 4 dishes served to us. Our plates are going back faster than the food is coming out. We arrived before all the tables around us but they have had time to order food eat it and ready to get the bill. The food that has come is mediocre at best. When we asked where our food is they just kept saying they are busy downstairs. Its busy but other tables are getting food. The 3 children with us are still very hungry. Since arriving its been 4 hours. This service is disgraceful. Would definitely not recommend.
Three of us ate here for lunch for a French food break. Two of us had lunch meals, and my wife ordered steamed dumplings. She wasn’t thrilled with her dumplings, she thought the taste was “off”. Our friend had sautéed noodles with something, maybe meat but I forgot. She is an English woman living in France for 40+ years, and thought hers fine. I had a rice bowl with crevettes/shrimp, with veggies and a lightly fried egg on top, and I quite liked it. I’d be very happy to eat here again, the menu offered some interesting choices.
We really enjoyed this place and we've gone back twice in one week. After having lived in Southeast Asia for 12 years, we were looking for a good Chinese restaurant in Montpellier. Everything we've ordered here so far has been really good (chicken with chili, green beans, mapu tofu, dumplings, fried pork ribs). In addition, they have some spicy dishes which is a change from what we've gotten at other restaurants around town. The people that manage the place are very nice and they can provide suggestions in English which is helpful for us as our French isn't up to standard as yet. And it's not too expensive at all for good sized dishes. We're definitely looking forward to going back.
