From the moment we walked in we were blown away by the ambience of the restaurant and the hospitality and friendliness of the staff - food was wonderful and tasty - cannot fault it. There was a little misunderstanding re the main meals but once we pointed it out it was rectified very very quickly - will definitely return :)

What a wonderful restaurant with fantastic staff! We were a group of 9 who had an early show to get to and had an hour to order, eat and get out. We explained this to the very accommodating staff and they did a wonderful job in ensuring that we were on time. We even had them decide our dishes for us to save time, and everything was delicious. Amongst others, we had Peking duck, which was prepared by the chef next to our table, and oysters 3 ways, which were eaten and enjoyed by everyone, even the few who "don't like oysters". One of our party is allergic to all seafood and was served, without fuss, his own equally delicious dishes. The wine list was impressive and reasonably priced. The food was exceptional value. We can't wait to go back and spend a more leisurely time enjoying the food and hospitality.

Had been here a few times, smoked duck was great, however XO lobster did not taste the XO sauce at all, tasted more like a sweet and sour, lobster tail was fresh however the sauce was a let down.

Lovely food, service ok - might have been better if I wasn't on my own with two very well behaved children? Why is it that when you dine with children, the credibility of being "foodies" goes out the window!
