The service was absolutely amazing; we were served very quickly, and one kind waiter answered some of our questions about the food immediately!The food was amazing as well; we had three different types of chicken, but all of them were delicious. The sides are plenty big to share.I liked the cosy atmosphere and the decor inside.

Ordered a takeaway whilst visiting the Lake District with family for the weekend. For context we are from London and honestly haven’t had a nicer Chinese ever we have tried so many Chinese takeouts in London and none of these compare to this. We ordered the salt & pepper chicken, chicken chow mein, crispy chilli beef, egg fried rice, curry sauce, sweet n sour chicken balls & chips.Not greasy and just such good flavour and value for money came to 52 which is amazing value for money.Definitely worth a visit and if we came to the area again we would come again. Thankyou!!

The sixth restaurant I've visited in Cockermouth in the two weeks I have stayed here and so far this has been my favourite. The complimentary prawn crackers were unusually good. The Peeking Hot & Sour soup was excellent and the Thai Red Chicken Curry was amazing. Great meal!

Saturday night walk-in but was given a table, albeit with the caveat it was needed in an hour and a half. No problem. Service was excellent, very efficient. Order taken swiftly, we ordered the Chinese banquet for 2 - set in stone menu choices (I did ask if I could swap a dish out but it was a no); wasn't a big deal really, just meant 1 dish I couldn't eat.Food was absolutely delicious. Hot, tasty, filling, plenty of rice to accompany. Cannot fault the 2/3 dishes I could eat. T'other half enjoyed all 3!Thought it was very well priced for a sit down authentic Chinese meal. Have been a few times now and have never had a bad meal.

Had a set menu for 3 people on Friday evening, very knowledgeable staff and very friendly and professional, the food was excellent, every dish had it's own distinct flavour and was top quality.Wonderful selection of Gins and vodkas with St.Miguel lager on draft.All in all an extremely enjoyable evening,Would highly recommend and we will be back next time we are in Cockermouth.

Beautiful restaurant and great service. We both had King Prawns in black bean sauce with mushrooms. We had noodles and rice and Chinese tea. Everything was 100%.I love authentic Chinese food and this was right up there.We cleared our plates.Very happy indeed.
