Dined here with a friend and we were very pleased with the quality of the food and the service. We went for the dumplings, Crispy Sichuan Chicken, Fruity Sweet & Sour Pork, and Black Rice plus a couple of Tiger beers. The dishes were all tasty and certainly best enjoyed as a shared experience. Would certainly dine here again to try some of their other dishes.

Friendly service and nice ambience/decor in the restaurant! Food was clean with fresh ingredients though quite expensive for what you get and somewhat bland. For example, guess it was in the name but the dry fried eggplant was mostly unseasoned battered bits of eggplant, with only sparse slices of red onion mixed in.

Gorgeous dinner here celebrating Mother's Day. Had nice cocktails but were a bit watery. Meals were really good. Presentation was lovely and service was brillant. It's a shame that their prices have increased considerably for what you get.

Disappointed First Table guests segregated to poor seating area at 11.15 am. Place was empty. Another 4 guests arrived when we were nearly finished meal (I cancelled First Table booking to get better seating)

Music very loud. We were offered another table (next to toilets and kitchen) Would not go back under First Table guest! First time visiting, shame our experience was not good. “Policy” re First Table guests needs to be reviewed.

Been there on so many occasions before. It was always amazing. Lately for our visits there were lot of errors in service. Couldn’t find any of the usual servers. But I will visit again in few months to see if they bring our good go to restaurant back.

Located in a nice location. Cozy atmosphere. Service was quite slow even though we pre ordered the dishes a few days before per their recommendation (as we were a large group). It took ages to receive drinks as well. Also, they didn't take the empty plates away so we had to find the spaces ourselves in the table for new coming dishes. Not satisfied with services at all. Feel like waitstaff are inexperienced. Oh forgot to mention. They charged us the drink we didn't drink. Unhappy experience with this restaurant overall.

I had a couple of dishes from the Lunch Express menu - the Ma Po Tofu and the Mangolian beef. They were both ok. The team there is super friendly and has a nice setup

I was there with a large group of my friends. The service was somewhat decent, the food was honestly well overpriced but tasted very average definitely nothing special, portions were so small, you could get much better at other places and I can think of quite a few places within the same area. My drink that I ordered before everyone else (watermelon daquiri) took so long to get to the table I thought they had literally forgotten, I had to remind the waitress twice before it arrived to my table. Honestly, this restaurant is situated in a nice location, the atmosphere is gorgeous and cozy but the service was not great and the food is below our expectations especially for the price. I'm sorry to say that I won't be coming back but I hope this feedback is taken as constructive criticism. This is my opinion but most of my friends agree with me. What I have priced below is the bill being split by a group of 13 people minus the prices of drinks which we all paid for individually. We also got charged for a blue drink which literally none of us ordered but ended up paying for anyway, the staff should have voided that considering our bill was literally over a grand. Pretty ridiculous in my opinion.

Nice experience with a nice fusion touch on the meals.
Quite liked it on the meals. Super friendly staff and knowledgeable.
Little minus was the drink menu and pairing that could be overhauled.

Pre-booked our table for my daughter's 18th birthday (her choice because we have been here once before and was great) we arrived took our order, we did order duck so slightly longer, 1hr 10min still no food ask waiter ohhh forgot to put our order in the system! Totally get it if they are busy (sort of) but it wasn't! So disappointing! So walked out not getting feed.

Delish!
We had an array of starters and mains on our table and every single comment was the same.absolutely scrumptious!
Prawn cocktails was a big hit with the fellas along with the Sirloin.
Pork Belly was succulent and beautifully cooked.
Come with a big appetite and try a little bit of everything if you can.

Delicious! Biggest selection of vegan options I've ever seen on a menu with a whole page dedicated. Couldn't fault any dish, especially the vegan dumplings and vegan squid. The service was excellent and the staff were all lovely.

I really dislike leaving these reviews, but the food pricing and portions need a lot of work, ended up leaving with an upset stomach, hope the menu and service improves

The portion of food is ridiculous and expensive. The meat was drier than the Sahara desert, and gross
