The food is just great, taste really good, and it comes in big portion, could take home for dinner! But what I like the best is the girl who attended us, very kind and lovely, my mistake I did not ask her name. But will definitely come more often.
Absolutely nice environment and food quality is great. To be fair, it’s quite authentic as well.
Authentic cantonese restaurant serving up great chinese dishes. The pig stomach soup was peppery and delicious. Salt & pepper prawn was so fresh and delicious! Portions were also generous! Really loved the food here
The best Chinese restaurant ! All the food is delicious, every bite is full of flavor. I have been here more than 20 times. It’s kind of my comfort food
Update: we brought our own seafood here to have it cooked. Absolute dynamite! Ate a great meal here. Dishes all had authentic Cantonese flavors. They use high quality ingredients and make some really good soups. They are famous for their Pork Tripe and Chicken Pepper Soup which is served on a candle lit stove. Also have some seasonal seafood / fish. Best to go with someone who can order in Chinese. Apparently this place gets really busy with students during the school year.
Food like this you can only really taste in china.. they have unique home style dishes. Best Chinese i had in the UK by far
Wonderful restaurant. Some of the most authentic Chinese food I’ve had. Also, very friendly staff. Singapore Fried Noodles and Chili Beef Strips were awesome.
This place is a whole vibe giving guangdong realness... We were met with excellent and warm service from all staff. The braised assortment was excellent, with pork intestines, chicken+pork stomach, pig skin, and chicken feet... All good offal deliciously seasoned. The pepper pig stomach and chicken soup was off the charts much better than four seasons in London which I visit frequently. So glad to have found this place during the short stay in Manchester. Total was around £33, couldn't finish the food between 2. Recommended 10/10
Small restaurant with a warm and friendly waitresses. So surprised they have goose dishes in UK. They might have Hakka chefs, most of the dishes are Hakka taste. We tried Pork bellies chicken soup and coconut chicken soup, they were very tasty, especially have them in cold and rainy nights.
Although the decor & ambiance are quite good - it resembles a traditional Chinese restaurant of old, it is a bit chilly here (my family visited in January) - so you may have to keep your coat on ! I noticed a halogen heater pointed in the direction of another table (maybe you can get warmer if you are close to a power socket...) The food is OK - and it is slightly cheaper than the average Manchester Chinatown restaurant (my wife liked the casseroles pictured), & there is a good variety of rice & noodle dishes available. Customer service wise, it is "nominal" with at times, service without a smile. The restaurant seems to have a target clientele of ethnic Chinese, given many slogans & words inside don't have an English translation, although English menus are available.
