Whilst on vacation in Orkney, the chill made me crave some hot comfort Chinese food. Fortunately, I came across this restaurant. The food was absolutely fantastic and authentic (so much so that it reminded me of the food back home in Singapore). I dined here twice over the 2 days that I stayed in Orkney - I think that fact speaks for the quality of the food. The owners were also very friendly and welcoming.
Absolutely beautiful food, well presented and truly tasty - the staff are friendly, proffesional and accomodating - definitely will be visiting again! Xx
Despite visiting Orkney with work for several years, I've never had the courage to dine here. Chinese food is often not authentic. Having read the positive review left by Leon, I decided to order a takeaway. Totally agree, it's very good! Stir fry noodles had a smokey flavour that is expected from the high heat used in authentic wok stir frying. Place was very busy but I didn't have to wait long for my order. Lots of staff and a very busy sounding kitchen. Polite staff and service. Looking forward to my next order when I am back working in Orkney. Keep up the good work
Very disappointed with our takeaway tonight. My husband collected it. He had a chicken curry. Bland and full of raw onions.big inedible chunks. Just thrown together without care . Overpriced for this dish. Please cook your lumps of onion better and make it more presentable.
Food was alright, but found this last 3 times now, every time we order one off the desserts they are never placed in the order When we collect. By the time we get home we ain’t going to come back again. Please can you in future make sure orders are checked before giving to customers.
Friendly and efficient service. We visited last minute without booking and it was busy. The food was great. Good sized portions. Loved the garlic and pepper sauce with the chicken and the chow mein was lovely too.. Everything tasted freshly cooked and after a long day in the Orkney wind we enjoyed every mouthful. Will definitely return when next on the island.
I've been eating there with a friend. The food can be eaten but is below average: I had at least 5 slices of ginger in my meal which was way to much. The prices on the menu we were given don't seem to correspond to the one on the menu you can see from outside. The service is very efficient but in some sense too efficient: we did not even have time to eat the snacks that the food was already given to us. Last, the bill was not detailed. I would not recommend.
Very good service.
The place was very busy at the time but that's because there was an event in Kirkwall on the day.
The first time we ordered food over the phone and a small mistake was made on the order but thats not likely to be their fault. The second time we ordered in person, paid for the full meal and we were missing quite a bit of what we ordered.
Once we took the food home we massively enjoyed it as it was really high quality and tasty.
