We had a delicious family meal for my husband here recently and I cannot stress how good the food is! The special beef rib and hand pulled noodles has gone straight into one of my top ten restaurant dishes of all time! Our 9yr old/12yr old kids loved it too (medium spice levels so just right for them) and are already asking when we can go back and try all the other stuff on the menu. We are carnivores but had some bits from the extensive vegan menu and they were all delicious. And all for under £70 for a family of four - what a bargain!

Food was exceptional, the beef short rib melted in your mouth. Would definitely go back.

Chef special beef short rib was superb, the hand pulled noodles carried the flavour and the meat was good quality. Chinese pork burger side was very good also. Could do with some art on the walls and some soft furnishings to dampen the noise when it’s busy and maybe some dimmer light so make it more cosy but who cares when the food is amazing.

First time having hand cut noodles. Now can’t go back.

The hand cut noodles take some getting used to. Like pasta sheets. But best tasting noodles I’ve ever had. Married with the flavourful beef rib I was really enjoying their house speciality. All in all a very well balanced delicious noodles with a good base and really tasty beef rib. 18 for the beef rib is worth it when you get so much meat and good quality cooking and balanced.

We had lunch at this little gem. Staff were welcoming and the chef even stopped by to chat a bit too. It’s lovely to see the noodles being made right in front of you. We both had the beef short rib biang biang noodles with not too much spice and it was delicious. We will definitely eat here again, and try out more on the menu.
