Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Very good Chinese food but quite unfriendly staff who seemed put out that we were eating late. Quite expensive but thankfully very tasty and generous portions. A hefty service charge added of 25% was I felt was excessive. The restaurant is outdated and grubby, stained...carpets but we gave it a try as it was very late and we needed food, they accommodated our late table, we left well fed. It is disappointing that the staff were not more friendly.More

Waited 15 minutes to be seated. No host to be found anywhere. Tried to get the attention of the staff but was ignored. Turned out that a majority of the staff were eating on a table near the door. Tried to get their attention but...also ignored. Left the restaurant without eating. Had to pay for parking for nothing.More

If I could I would give zero stars. Incredibly racist staff who ended up making my 9 year old niece cry at her own birthday dinner. After being forced to pay for all food upfront, we simply queried about the service charge then added to...our additional drinks we wanted to pay for at the end. We still paid for this and as the waiter was getting our payment decided to tell us we would no longer be welcome there as the manager heard us talking about the service charge. When I then told the waiter this was Incredibly inappropriate to do at the table, he didn't even apologise. I then spoke to the manager and told him how inappropriate that was he simply shrugged his shoulders and when we even mentioned my niece was crying he again shrugged his shoulders. When I said 'how can you not even offer an apology' he then decided to say 'OK then, sorry'. I believe this treatment was down to the fact we were a Black family as we could see how the staff treated others in the restaurant. Terrible terrible attitude and would not recommend if you aren't of their target demographic.More

Food was ok, but the customer facing staff need better training on customer interactions as they come across as very rude, it was not a present experience eating there as a result and my guess is that the employees think their behaviour is normal for...hospitality venues.More

Ate there twice when visiting the hotel upstairs, ordered the same things on both occasions but charged 2 different prices. A few guests that night suffered on the throne as a result - I’d avoid if I were you

Worst restaurant ever. 10pm and still not had all the dishes served. The dishes are so bad and the service is rude. Clearly the owner cares only about profit and not quality. Do yourselves a favour and go elsewhere. Atrocious.

My husband and I visited this place a few times. Obviously, the prices have gone up due to the effect of everything. The food is really good, especially the dim sum. But my goodness, the staff were terrible. No one at the front desk to...show us to our table but I can see one of the waiters was daydreaming and not really paying attention to what was happening around him. When we sat down, I asked him about the types of meat and rice and he looked at me as if I should know what was in them. Very unwelcoming.More

checked the reviews before we came an didn't look to good but as we were staying upstairs we saw how busy the place looked so we went in and gave it a try. everything seemed okay but the décor was dated and felt like i...was in conference room the menu seems good did chines food which i have never seen before such as duck tonge ect, so i thought wow must be good authentic chinese food. where we was sat we was facing another table and on that table a women was cleaning knives and fork which didn't really bother me. the waiters and waitresses didn't look happy and we was getting stared at y them which made it weird. when we got given our meals there was no ' hi how are you' she dumped the food on the edge of the table and walked off . i noticed on another table some women asked for a seafood fried rice but noticed there was pork for it, and i think she asked for no prawn but as she was complaining the bloke just didn't do anything to resolve it as offer her another meal without the pork or try and amend the issue he just listened walked away and left it. on another table they forgot their drinks with the looks of it and the waiter shouted to the bar staff they need them drinks and ive never seen another waiter shout across the room and i go to a lot of restaurants across England as i work away from home. i couldn eat the chicken in my fried rice it looked a bit pinkish and with the experience i was having i couldnt chance it. now i could have come here on a bad day i like to give benefit of the doubt but after reading more reviews maybe it is just the place. i think this place would do better if the staff had more of a welcoming feel and more polite.More

Quality of the food is pretty average, you get much more tasty dishes in Chinatown. Service is as usual, quite bad. The waiters just don't talk to you and almost bump into you in the main dining room. Also, beware of the parking charge of...£3.50 if you drive there. I remember a time when the food was much better and parking was free.More
