Visiting Dover Castle, decided on a Chinese found this on a search and decided to visit. The food was limited and not hot looked like it had been there a while. Why is it that a child is no longer a child once they get to 10 I thought they did not become anything different until 13 when they became... More

I have eaten at Chinese restaurant all over the world and this one is one that you can miss. The food had been cooking in the rosters for a while and was very dry. The worst pat was that we got there only 30 minutes after they opened. Even if the food had not been over cooked the flavor did... More

Good food with nice prawns and reasonable price. Besides the waitress in hurry to collect the empty plates on our table, the food was over the average for Chinese buffet. 10 pounds well invested per person.

This place is a cheap Chinese buffet. I've been here for lunch during a weekday. Cheap in this case comes with a price of poorly made and oily food, small variety and grumpy staff. Far from a good option in town.

if you like old food with a skin on it and rude staff try this place, it is £9.95 after 5, my advice is if you really want to try it is go on friday about 8pm at least someone else will have eaten all the old stuff, so you have got half a chance. read the other reviews people... More

Lovely restaurant selling Chinese food to eat in and to take away. They offer a reasonably priced all you can eat buffet at lunch time and evening. They also have a menu to choose from if you don't fancy the buffet. The food is very nice.

From karaoke night to private party functions. Good restaurant to hold all those guests. Food is average, sometimes quite salty but entertainment and atmosphere makes up for it.
