Not only is this great dim sum that I go back for whenever in Southampton but it is better than the best Dim Sum I have had in London Chinatown, Toronto Chinatown, the US or even Australia. Today, my big discovery was the pan fried sweet potato, nice and different than your typical dim sum. It also reminded me their prawn rice noodles are the best ever. Strongly recommend. read more
Went there with two other friends on a Thursday night. I was recommended this by one of my students and then by these local friends.
I grew up in Hong Kong so I might set a high bar. This place is an honest eatery with authentic Chinese food. The portions were very generous so it was great to share. Service was friendly and efficient.
The menu is rather extensive.
We ordered a beer and a bowl of steam rice each. We also ordered Boiled Fish Fillets in Spicy Garlic, Fried Prawn Balls in Chili Sauce and Fragrant Braised aubergine with pork mince. They were delicious and as authentic as you can get in the UK or at least in Southampton.
We had a great meal and belly full of food. It worked out less than £20 each and that's including tips.
I would give 5 stars if it has more ambience lighting and seating arrangements or if they are serving dim sum (which they have stopped since lockdown so I've been informed.) . I would give it at least 4.5 stars. Go and try it if you are a foodie. read more
