When my duck chow mein finally arrived, it was inedible - the noodles were undercooked and there were just lumps of fat. The rest of the meal was just okay. I complained about it when paying, but there was no offer to take anything off the bill. There were no other diners in the restaurant, which should have been a warning sign. I will never be going back - this place deserves half a star, it was truly terrible.

We ordered Chicken Curry with the house special rice, as well as Beef Chow Mein. We also tried Chinese beer, which was delicious. The curry was flavorful and full of spices, and the beer was so tasty that I ended up having two bottles. The portions were generous and we couldn't finish our meal. We would definitely return whenever we're in Nottingham again. I highly recommend trying this place - I even left a tip.

The welcome was cold, as was the temperature of the restaurant. The table linen was dirty and the whole place had a sort of grubby feel to it. It's like restaurants used to be. The only member of staff was miserable, blunt, uncaring and verging on being rude. The food was worse... we were starving and really tried hard to get through it but it was not to be. Duck that was so fatty and slimy that it was really hard to swallow, prawns that tasted like nothing I have ever eaten before and Beef that tasted like nothing on earth. A glass of water appeared to be £1 (or was it £1.50). On the way to the toilets you pass a Fish Tank how the fish are still alive is beyond me this summed up the whole place the tank was dirty and murky. And the toilets... well.. thank goodness the door was propped open so I did not have to touch it on the way out. (The hand dryer did not work). I wish I had done my homework before going... £37 for two people including a glass of water and a soft drink. And I feel utterly ripped off. Terrible. How can they get it so wrong.

The chicken was almost entirely fat and gristle and the special 'fried ' rice was simply plain boiled rice with some more lumps of gristly, unrecognisable meat...for almost £7!!! Do NOT eat here!

Friendly environment for families. The food is excellent! Fresh and tasty! We'll definitely come back again in the near future.
