My boyfriend and I visit this restaurant every couple of months as a treat. This is by far my favourite restaurant in Manchester, the food is amazing, the actual cooking of the food is a really fun experience but most importantly the service is phenomenal. I’ve visited about 8 times now and have never waited more than 10 seconds for service, the waitresses and waiters are so on top of everything and very helpful for suggestions and how long to cook each item of food. We usually spend between 30-50 between the two of us and have a loyalty stamp card that we use everytime we visit for a free item! Cannot recommend enough!

The menu was explained to us with recommendations. We chose based on our taste and the recommendations. The food was excellent, presented beautifully and with instructions on cooking times. Fabulous leisurely meal, piping hot to the end. Would definitely recommend

This restaurant was perfect — absolutely everything was enjoyable. The welcome was warm, and the staff were attentive and genuinely listened to us. They gave us great recommendations and took the time to guide us through everything. The quality of the meat was top-notch, the presentation was beautiful, the vegetables were fresh, and the broths, rice, and especially the sweet potato noodles were excellent. The plum juice is homemade and absolutely delicious. It might seem a bit pricey, but it’s well worth it. There’s a 10% service charge (optional), and honestly, they deserve even more. I 100,000% recommend this place!

Went today for my first hotpot with my father. You can’t fault the service one bit. Staff were amazing. Food was incredible. Whole experience was 10/10 would highly recommend along as you don’t like boring tasteless British food. As someone who doesn’t adventure much with meat, I was recommended the ox tongue and it was delicious.

The food was great! The hotpot itself was a delicious broth and we chose beef and pork rolls with Chinese leaves and noodles. It was plenty for a big lunch for 2. With drinks and service the whole came to just under 60. It feels like a lot for lunch and not something I’d do every day, but the theatre of the steaming and bubbling hotpot and the dry ice that the pork came out with made for such an experience that all in all, with the atmosphere and the tasty food, it was worth it. It’s tucked away in an unassuming part of town, close to the universities and other Chinese restaurants. It felt authentic and there were plenty of Chinese folks enjoying a hotpot solo or with a friend, alongside other British groups and couples.
