I've been here a few times because it (and it's fresher-looking sister restaurant) serves pretty authentic Chinese food. My favourite dishes are Poulet Royal (chicken with peanuts in a chilli sauce) and the pork-aubergine dish. It's always packed on weekend evenings so make a reservation. Positives are that it's extremely good value for Switzerland but the main drawback is that... More

We had visited both of the restaurants in rue du tunnel and rue du petit-chene. The good thing about this chinese restaurant was that it was cheap compared to other chinese food places in the town. The food was OK and plentiful. The taste was good, but food quality is just average. Also, cheap prices come with downsides. Service was... More

crowded, noisy, canteen atmosphere and service. Nothing to do with good chinese food. Just lots of mediocre food

We came here on saturday afternoon based from information from a colleague of mine. We came at 6.30 PM and the place was fully booked, we told them that we would eat fast and then they gave us table. Nice point for service! We eat three menu, some fried chicken, fish and vegetables. To my surprise the taste was delicious.... More

When you look at the prices you might be unsure of the quality of the dishes you will get... But in this chinese run restaurant, 90% of the meals I ate were delicious! Even the service is kind of nice... The only downside is that, depending on where you are seated, you might smell a bit like fried food at... More

This is on of the best value for money chinese restaurant I have been to. The menu is diverse and for your apetite. I would definitely recommand to make a reservation as it always full at night. My advice would be to go there at around 7pm and you might still find a table for 2. It's just a 5... More

I'm so glad to have found this place! The food here actually taste like the food in china! Nothing fancy, just flavorful food without drama. Definitely the best Chinese place I've been since I moved to Switzerland.

My friend recommended me this restaurant and I can't be more grateful. For a Chinese food restaurant in Europe, they offer various kinds of foods (including dimsum, to my surprise). The food taste great and authentic, the portion is big enough for two, and the price for a la carte menu is about 15 CHF. The slight downsides: the restaurant... More

This is a perfect place !! Very good food and a lot for low price --> great value place. The restaurant is small, with minimal or no decoration and layout really popular as you eat just beside people you don't know, that make the atmosphere unique and allow them to have an unbeatable price... No froufrou ;-) it's always full...... More
