the worst place in london, rough service, rough food, and all overcook, stogy mess. Ordered the roast duck from the display in the window, but some thing total different was served to us, when i ask the waiter , he said this is how the English have the duck served (re-steam)! and mutter under his breath, and walk away. Ask for the manger to change the duck and he said this is how it is, if you don,t like it go elsewhere, What can i say, but to take there advice next time.

I went to this restaurant last Saturday, and even though I asked for a vegetarian dish (since I don't eat meet), I found a piece of meat half way through my meal.

When I pointed this out to the waiter, he said very rudely 'what do you want me to do?' and suggested that the bit of meet may have been flicked from my friends plate (impossible as it was a completely different type of meat),he was only willing to offer me the soft drink for free and after a discussion with him, he scrapped very violently my dish from his note, and snapped the my dish and my friend's dish off the table aggressively. Then he put down the bill on our table and said 'Pay and go' in the most rude way. I actually confronted him and he was even ruder! At no point a received an apology from my waiter or anyone else that worked at the restaurant. Moreover, when I asked to see the manager, I was told there wasn't one.

Not only the service is horrid at this restaurant, the food is terrible too (and coming from a family of chefs I certainly know good food).

Please, visit any other Chinese restaurant in the area, there are some really lovely ones! Unfortunately I made the mistake of wanting to try somewhere new.

Hope this review helps other people not to make the same mistake!

you must be joking, went there because of your review, wasted 60 pound for a meal for 2, open your eye and see what is real.
