We had a very enjoyable meal at this restaurant. The service was quick and friendly. Everything we tried was delicious, but the standout dish was the lamb in honey sauce. Be cautious, as the stairs leading down to the restrooms are quite steep.

After spending a day in Winchester, we decided to try this restaurant despite it not being our first choice. The restaurant we had initially planned to visit nearby was empty, which was not a good sign. As we were hungry and in need of a meal, we entered the Chinese restaurant. The atmosphere was decent, with a few other tables occupied. The dining room was clean and stylishly decorated. The manager promptly brought us prawn crackers, though we were unsure if they were complimentary or not. We ordered some appetizers and main dishes to share. The food arrived quickly, likely due to there being only a couple other tables dining. Unfortunately, the dishes lacked flavor and seemed to be lacking in temperature. We expressed our dissatisfaction to the waitress, who provided an unsatisfactory response. The manager avoided the situation entirely. It was unclear if the chefs were even Chinese. We recommend avoiding this restaurant, as the prices do not match the quality of the food. This was one of the worst dining experiences we've had, despite working in the hospitality industry. It was reminiscent of a scene from a comedy movie, where the food resembled congee rice in lukewarm water. We will not be returning to this restaurant, although Winchester itself is a lovely city.

The waiter had no real interest in us. we asked for the ribs in dark brown sauce, because we could not remember what kind of that was. he brought the orange ripening, the furthest had every flesh on them only many of these hard white...bits then I asked after a coffee with saw he did not bring a coffee with milk he offered to correct it, nor did he offered to take it out of the bill so that we paid and leave and not return

Absolutely terrible eating, eat undercooked rice. Beef yield had almost no sauce, satay completely overcooked. utter wasted money that we had to wait 45 minutes after the given collection time. never again.

We would rate this restaurant -1 if we could. Had the worst experience either in a restaurant ever. Booked a table for lunar new year had to wait an hour for our starter and to be honest couldn’t wait another hour for our main course...so left. Will not return ever could not believe on their busiest night they had not increased their kitchen staff. We were not the only ones to complain.
