I must of mentioned it about 5 times (just to make sure) We ordered 5 differ dishes to share out. Luckily i tried the first piece of chicken in black bean sauce (I didn't even think that had nuts in it anyway) I found half a peanut. I poured out all the rest of all dishes and found 4 and a half nuts in total. I threw the whole lot away and phoned to complain, only to be told that i should of requested it when i called to make the delivery. (Even though i went in and ordered it face to face) I Will definitely not be going back.

Fantastic restaurant. Brilliant night…read more The food was excellent - we went for the 2nd set menu which was really nice and plenty to share between 2 people. The service was good. There was a piano player which was good and created a nice atmosphere. 100% would go here again.

Great food and ambience…read more Set meal was excellent with great tasting dim sum. We asked for steamed fish instead of the prawns as one of the main dishes and George(our waiter) couldn't have been happier to oblige. Mark(the manager) always looked after us. Very good, prompt and friendly service.

This is our favourite restaurant in Chelmsford, it runs a very good (to order) buffet deal midweek,…read morewhich usually works out around £20 per head with 4-5 soft drinks ordered.

The biggest downside to the meal I would say is the fact you get tiny bowls to dish your food in to and eat from. I'm guessing this is some sort of tactic for get you psychologically full up quicker and eating less. The food was good and I would go back here. Great value at £15 per head (food only)

This used to be a good value family restaurant, but is now going seriously down-hill! On my last…read morevisit (last ever !) I made the mistake of asking the Herr Kommandant (the maitre d') for a table by the window: the Chinese Basil Fawlty started shouting at me, saying in broken English if you wanted to choose a table you should have booked. Also every other table was apparently reserved, no sign of a "reserved" notice on any of them. He then "blanked" me for the rest of the visit, maybe he should go on a customer relations course, or better yet, someone should teach him about good manners !The food is nowadays limp and flavour-less, of very questionable quality with little variety. You constantly get staff leaning over your plate to remove things from the table. Cheap it is, but in this life you get what you pay for, you have been warned.
