We booked a table for 1pm which is when they opened. The waiter still had his coat on and was setting up tables. Not great sadly. The food was nice but not brilliant. The service was quick and while we were eating our banana fritters, that we had to ask for as they didn’t ask if we wanted them, the staff down at another table to eat their lunch. We weren’t asked if we wanted more drinks or anything. Wouldn’t mind but there was only the two of us and a table of 3 in the place. Won’t be back.

Have used this place lots of times in the past few months but will not be using again. Beef in the beef curry was really pink and very undercooked. Phoned to complain and got sent replacement curry's but no rice to go with them and the beef was still raw. Won't be ordering from here again. It's bad enough the beef wasn't cooked but to send replacements and not even give fresh rice to a regular customer is just bad.

A Culinary Gem – Finally Found the WOW Factor! Wow! Where do I even begin? After sampling countless Chinese restaurants and takeaways, I can confidently say none have ever wowed me quite like this one. From the moment I took my first bite, it was clear we were in for a treat! Even the chips—yes, the chips—were a delightful surprise, and I’ll be honest, it took me aback with how delicious they were. The food here is not just made but crafted, prepared to an impressively high standard. I have a little one who's quite picky when it comes to food, and I geared up for a tea time battle that never happened! Picker eater cleared his plate trying new dishes and the smile on his face spoke volumes. What stands out the most is the clean, invigorating taste of every dish we ordered—a far cry from some of the overly sauced, greasy offerings I've encountered elsewhere. This place sits at the top of my list now and is officially my go-to spot for Chinese food. If you're searching for an experience that promises to tantalize your taste buds and leave your stomach happy, look no further. It’s rare to find such a treasure, and I can't wait to return and taste more. Highly recommend! PS the fortune cookies are a nice touch.

We tried tiger Lotus tonight for the first time and wow outstanding! Food was 10/10. So fresh and tasty, chicken was melt in the mouth. Although we sat in tonight and a 20 ish minute drive from where we live I think this will be our new local takeaway for Chinese food! Staff are so welcoming, friendly and chatty. Restaurant is lovely inside and very cosy. Thank you for such a beautiful meal and fantastic service.

Had a quick Google search and thought we'd try this place whilst working in the area. Had a warm welcome from the nice waitress so was looking forward to some food. The food was very good and spicy like we asked for. We ordered our food and the waitress said she thought it would be too much food for us so we took some off and she was right as we only just managed to finish what we had. We both really it here and will definitely return

They forgot my dumplings & free prawn crackers. Food excellent and fresh as always just a shame I didn’t get my full meal. Though when I called they did offer to give me credit towards my next delivery when I asked for a refund. Didn’t see point in waiting for the dumplings when I had waited an hour for food. Appreciate they are busy on Saturdays

Got a Thai dish, peking ribs, sweet and sour chicken and noodles. Quick service and tasted good. Probably the best chinese I've had around the South side of Edinburgh.

This place is really nice. Most important is i was totally delighted by your service. Me and my brother went today for our Lunch meal in your restaurant. We ordered chicken hot&sour soup,chicken noddles and chicken fried rice. By some reason my brother not liked the smell of meat. But it’s quite okay for me. As he is not enjoying his meal. We requested the waiter to change it to veg noddles. He completely taken all information what actually he likes and dislikes and he made a special dish for my brother which is really so good to taste. We really enjoyed by your service. Will visit again
