It took far too long for someone to serve us. When the food come to my table it was nice. Big portions. I was happy. But then the main come I had to pay £8 for a dish and pay for rice separately £2.50. I think this is just a joke. The rice was cold. The beef was too chewy. Service was extremely slow. It's far too dark in the restaurant. So just be aware if you pay £8 - £10 for a dish. You still have to pay £2.50 for rice or £7 for noodles. So that could be £17 before drinks. Very expensive for a Chinese restaurant

The restaurant was busy with a number of Chinese people eating and so I thought this is going to be very good. However the starter and main course that arrived for our order was just ordinary. We wanted some mixed vegetables to accompany our main course and was told by the waited it came with rice or noodles. I said ok we''ll have the noodles. When it arrived it was a large bowl and far too much and appeared to contain two main course vegetable dishes, which I thought was rather odd. The food was very salty. The Chinese people were eating some very interesting dishes, but I have no idea what it was, but they were enjoying it.

Love this place. Great atmosphere, welcoming, friendly staff and great food. A great selection on the menu and a willingness to do off-menu dishes as well. Food is always fresh and prepared to order.

Excellent food and service. We were shown to a lovely table by the window, unfortunately there were decorators outside and the smell of paint by the window was strong but once this was mentioned they moved us promptly to another table away from the window.

Nice clean dining area. Polite waiting staff. Delicious food. Quite a wait between courses and one persons main course was missing but soon put right when we asked the waiter. We weren't rushed at all even when we stayed to chat at our table after we paid. Enjoyable evening.

The Restaurant was very busy, we went as two couples. The Service was quite slow, and we were served our dishes separate not together. Even ourselves when served, our dishes did not come together, so we were left with dishes getting cold and waiting for the rest of the order. We spent around £150 and felt the service could have been better

this restaurant has actually changed it's name to the 'New Dancing Dragon' after being under new ownership, we'd never visited before so cannot comment on differences apart from that the restaurant is no longer a buffet. We booked online for a Friday night, which was very simple to do. The food was great, it had plenty of dishes we'd not seen in standard Chinese restaurant menus before, so it was nice to try stuff out of the ordinary and the dishes were flavourful. This is something that stood out as I've had a lot of fairly generic and bland chinese food in the past - the here obviously knows what's what. The portion sizes are huge, 1 rice will easily fill 2 people, Husband had a belly pork dish served cold, I thought it might be weird but it was so tasty, there are plenty of dishes with a good spicy kick too. Service was great, just the right level of attentive the whole evening, really enjoyed it and will be back! Oh and the toilets had some nice dog paintings on the doors

When I booked a table I still thought it was a buffet meal, But after arriving was surprised how bright and clean everywhere was. The food was nice and hot with large portions. 7 of us had a pleasant afternoon, thankyou.
