Absolutely amazing place. The food is delicious and authentic. Very generous portions as well. The lady taking care of the orders is lovely. And very patient with kids. My only regret is to have lived nearby for 6years before finally trying it. And now we can't get enough of it! Our Chinese and Malaysian friends really rate it high too. They are also very fast for the deliveries and still the same quality as with dining in. Our favourites : dumplings, beef hofun noodles, sweet and sour pork, salt and pepper squid, tofu in black bean sauce, aubergine in black bean sauce. And all the fritters for dessert!!

Excellent lunch time special noodles, although I got the ones in sauce and I thought I'd ordered the normal ones.

Good food. Friendly helpful staff. Got there just as it opened so wasn't busy.

Went New Year’s Eve and was great service and great food hidden down side street but not to be missed it’s fresh and always taste great and great price to not one to be missed out on

Very nice food, staff very friendly,come her a lot

I've been going to this place for over 30 years, great value & food. The set menu for 2. We were here for partners Daughter Birthday. There was four of us this time. Always recommend to others. Can't rate it enough.

Food was very tasty and was served quickly. Service was great and not pressured. I had the Singapore Noodles, chilli beef and a Budweiser and it came to just under 15.00. I will be going there again.

Been going here for over 20 years now and I would say it’s one of the best and most authentic consistently and for good prices compared to others Can wait a long time especially on weekends but guess that’s typical with most places
