Great outdoor seating and amazing atmosphere. Slightly pricey though even for US$$. The food was ok.

The upper terrace is really nice for a drink, but the food is no great shakes. Had the beef and mushrooms and it tasted of soap.

I love the ambiance... I like taking my family there but we have found that we enjoy the food only when dining upstairs of better yet when we can afford private.. the bulk cooking is not cutting it for taste on the ground floor and for take out.

Went to dinner last Sunday.. The ambience of the resturant was very welcoming. The food was brought to us in record time and everything tasted very delicious. If you are visiting Georgetown this place is a must visit...

I imagine the upper floor of this restaurant may be good according with other reviews , I didn't eat there, however please, please never ever eat in the buffet! It is outrageous!!!!! I am a 50 years old budget travel that have been in 147 countries and sometimes visit chinese buffets around the world. I never wrote a review ,... More

Probably the best Chinese Food at an affordable price. Caters for various customers, each level in this restaurant caters for a different class and occasion. the first level is casual, second level is formal and third level has private rooms for business meeting, family gatherings, wedding etc. Their pastry bar offers a wide variety of sweets.

The restaurant has chic and up-scale décor, especially on the upper level. However, the food is over-rated. Although the dishes are generally pleasant to the taste buds, there was not an "OMG" dish. Prices are quite high compared to dishes of the same or better caliber from other local Chinese restaurants in G/town.

The first time I ate there it was with a group of travelers, all of us had heard good reviews from expats in the area, but they had failed to mention that the good food is upstairs. We ate on the first floor, it was okay, 2.5 star food and 2 star service that would have received a higher rating... More
