First time been there, would never go back!!, went there ordered only 2 dishes but the food didn't turn up after an hour (annoying!!). Another 3 ppl arrived not long after us all the food came out before us. Our first food came out together with the 3 ppl arrived after us, but the 2nd one didn't turn up until another 45 mins (only order 8 dumplings for 2nd dish), but the 3 ppl arrived after us their dumplings come out first!!. Check with one of the waiter the dumplings still didnt' turn up after another half an hour, none of them explained why or sorry because we have to wait for our food for so long. Just because we order 2 dishes doesn't mean we are not a good customer who doesn't spend much money as the 3 ppl...very very disappointing would never ever go back!!

Service is great. The place is clean... This store has a sister store up the road and share chefs, so I know the food is top knotched. The price is very good. Their dumplings are awesome and the service is very friendly. The menu is rather large and offers Conjii to Taiwanese Noodles.

Great food - steamed pork buns are delicious. The pork meat is perfectly seasoned. Pan fried dumplings and pork buns can be a bit oily. Restaurant furnishings are new-ish, generous servings, great value.

So cheap, so yummy and really friendly staff. The dumplings were fantastic (both the steamed and fried). I could believe how big the servings were and the quality was great. My new favourite food spot.

Excellent value, nice dumplings this is the place to go for dumplings. There is excellent value here, though it's noisy and not very pretty. Don't like the bathroom or the way you can see food laying around in the back hall, makes you wonder about hygiene. The Shanghai buns and shallot pancake are fantastic.

I thought the food was interesting, if not pretty good, but whn I took me brother-in-law he said "it's not as good as the shanghai food you get in HongKong". So, I guess, by Shanghai standards, that the food isn't spectacular. But having said that, I enjoy eating here, I love the atmosphere, and the brightness and clarity in the restaurant is a nice change from other less modern settings.

Oh yes, and the specialities are dumplings and cold dishes.

We went here last night, a large group of fifteen, and had a fantastic evening.

The food was fantastic, they serve a great selection, and the taste, quality and freshness far exceeded my expectations! They coped really well with the large group, who took up a quarter of the restaurant, and couldn't have been more hospitable. Definitely going back!
