“ Really can't fault the food or the staff. Really tasty. Food took a while to arrive. Although a quiet restaurant one family shouting swearing and abusing the staff about serving their baby first before their flight. Decor is dated but nice. I would definitely return food was really good ”
“ Lovely food! We were recommended to go by a neighbour as we live in Redhill and there aren’t many Chinese restaurants where you can eat in. It was early so quite quiet. Waitresses very friendly, food came really quickly and was lovely. We had a banquet for two and all the food was hot and delicious, with a bit spare which they bagged up for us to take home. Would definitely recommend and will be back! ”
“ I've been in here quite a few times,and I find the food and staff are fantastic each time Very clean what more can I say ”
“ Very authentic and well cooked Chinese food—as good as the food you can get in Hong Kong! ”
“ Surprisingly good. Food was excellent, better than the exterior or decor indicated. Ideal if you're staying at one of the Gatwick hotels and don't want to pay for over-priced food. Only a 5 minute drive with easy parking, comprehensive menu and reasonable prices. ”
“ First time visiting and was very happy with the food and service. ”
“ Food was ready for collection quickly (20 mins) and tasted great! Portion sizes are perfect. No complaints at all. One of the best Chinese takeaways we've had. (We can't understand any of the (silly) 1-star reviews on here) ”
“ Food is great. Never had any issues. Portion sizes are as expected, potentially even a little bit more generous than other places for some dishes. Good variety of tofu (beancurd) options which is awesome. Never had any issues with ordering or delivery either. Packaged well. The apple fritters are especially good (even after you order too much food and forget about them in the fridge for a couple of days). Probably our favourite Chinese takeaway in the area. ”
