Been here a few times now and the food is always consistently good. Really great Chinese food. Every dish is delicious. They have two restaurants a few doors away from each other that have different menus but you can order of off both. The owners are very friendly and good fun. If you get stuck for ideas ask Jo for recommendations she will steer you in the right direction. Our go to place now for Chinese food. Highly recommended. ( shorts)

Hiii, We’re the 3 girls that came from Wales and visited today and we just wanted to say we absolutely loved the food!! It was amazing and some of the best we’ve ever had. The service was impeccable too and so friendly! If we ever visit Reading again, we’ll definitely pop in!

An absolute gem of a spot, authentic in terms of food and atmosphere. A good variety of halal/veg options as well. The roast duck was especially good, perfectly cooked with a nice crispy skin. Highly recommend. I'm looking forward to being back soon.

The great energy you’ll find in this restaurant is hard to come by these days. I took my partner here on a whim as a last minute date night. The (assumed) owners and servers were fun, friendly and had wicked recommendations. The food, amazing, and the portions were big! It all came with a slightly more relaxed service which suited up perfectly as it gave us time to really enjoy the evening and appreciate the food. My new favourite Chinese restaurant in Reading!

Curry was always my favourite until I came here..! The food is amazing and the people are lovely… I thought Chinese food was sweet and sour pork, 2 spring roles and special fried rice.. but it’s not… I have never had fish, prawns, beef, pork or veg cooked so well..! My partner has food allergies and the owner was great helping with what she could eat.. This is my number one place to eat out and I’ve been to a good few £££ restaurants over the years..

We usually get takeaway from here since parking isn’t easy. My family loves the food! The only reason I’m giving one star less is because our last order had noticeably less meat than a few months ago!

The portion of brisket was big. Brisket is tasty though not soft enough. Seafood fried flat noodles was also find. Service charge is 12.5% but will be reduced if paid by cash. So we paid Around 4.3% as service charge.

Lovely family run restaurant. Our server and all the staff were incredibly friendly, and even went so far as telling us the best way to reheat our leftovers! The food was great and the portion sizes were very generous. Can't wait to go back!
