Lovely food and generous portions. Good variety on the menu. We really enjoyed the chicken lettuce cups and soft fried noodles. My granddaughter enjoyed trying to eat with chop sticks. The waitress very kindly offered help and she was able to eat most of her food with them . Fabulous views. A really enjoyable experience for myself and family.

Very lovely restaurant. Fantastic ambience and location. Hosts were gracious as due to traffic congestion for public transport, we were hours later than our booking time. Food was good although could have done with more salt. Good value for money.

I’ve been coming here for over 30 years. Always great. However, far too much salt/MSG in the food last night. Almost inedible. Please ask the chef to sort this out ! With thanks

Overall fantastic, the only negative was a very long wait for our main course (which may have been due to my choice of the crab, but we were not told it would be a long wait). We will definitely go again.

The food was good especially if you are a fan of the slightly more western version of chinese food, the service was actually fantastic and i felt very welcome. The prices were great for the area and having a view of the thames was awesome
