Wonderful Chinese restaurant with stunning sea views. The staff were welcoming, and we ordered chilli crispy beef, chicken with vegetable sauce, chicken and corn soup, spring rolls, and vegetable fried rice. Everything was delicious except for the chicken with vegetable sauce. I still recommend this place.

Fantastic Chinese experience in an amazing location right on the seafront. The restaurant has been family owned for many years. The choice of dishes is what I’d consider higher end than the average Chinese take away. I had the 1/4 duck pancake option which was very good. I was slightly underwhelmed with the chicken satay as I thought the satay sauce was a little bland for my taste. Very large portions with plenty of pancakes allowed 2 of us to share. A decent wine list at affordable prices rounded out the whole meal and made me want to revisit. Booking is advisable as there were no free tables on the Saturday evening. All this right on my doorstep

Our visit was on the 8th of November 2024. Just the two of us. Booked online a couple weeks in advance and received email confirmation of the booking. Staff are very attentive and thorough - they are obviously well drilled and experienced. Efficient and polite, could perhaps be a little more friendly, there was a younger waitress that was very friendly and smiling. Extensive menu. We went for the set menu B for two people with added soft noodles. All the food, from starters, to duck course, the the mains and sides were very good and served quickly, but never rushed. Plenty of food for two people. Very well priced. Around 70 for two of us with drinks, starters, crispy duck, 3 main dishes and 3 sides of fried rice, vegetables and noodles. Would happily go again. The takeaway menu is the same menu, but 20% cheaper.

Had dinner here tonight, we had amazing service, delicious hot, fresh food, good drinks, and perfect sea views. Restaurant and tables could’ve been a bit cleaner, but overall a great option for dinner!

A place I go to every time I visit plymouth. They went out of there way to accommodate us outside as we had a little dog with us. Tables and umbrellas put up.

I ordered some gift vouchers by post for family for Christmas, however they went missing in the post. I contacted the restaurant and they went above and beyond to get the replacement vouchers to the recipients. Absolutely fantastic service and great communication. My family love dining at here and I am told that the food and restaurant is wonderful. I am sure that they will enjoy using their vouchers. Thank you so much!
