I had the stir-fried chilli brown crab — super delicious! The crab was big and the price was very reasonable.

BEST authentic Chinese food!!! Highly recommend the 香辣肥肠 (spicy intestines) and 回锅肉 (twice cooked pork) they’re my favorite! We drove 2 hours from Cornwall because I was craving authentic spicy Chinese lol and it was so worth it. Will definitely be returning ❤️❤️

Unbelievable food. Had the boiled fish with spicy broth. My lips burned but my goodness was it worth it. Excellent service too - the waitress was very accommodating.

Really enjoyed our meal here. Was very busy and we just sat and relax while waiting for our food. Ordering is by tick box on the menu and there was plenty of choice. Both mild and spicy, seemed quite spicy though. However it was delicious and would really like to go back and try different combinations. Hygeine rating is 5 and you should not be put off by the simple and homely decor or the small child that likes to help you pay by using your card on the machine..they give it back.

Have been half a dozen times now. Consistently some of the most exciting food in Exeter and the prices are very fair. The staff are incredibly friendly and it makes the whole experience a complete joy. My kids adore the hot pot, which is packed with flavour and sociable. In a different league to places like Wagamama, which offer dumbed-down flavours. The fact that you can bring your own drinks only adds to the pleasure.

This place is like one of those simple "Mom&Pop" Restaurants you find all over Asia. Very simple unpretentious layout but with delicious food. The great thing about this place is that there is actually no menu but in stead you select your own ingredients... Just a word of warning…More reviews
This place is like one of those simple "Mom&Pop" Restaurants you find all over Asia. Very simple unpretentious layout but with delicious food. The great thing about this place is that there is actually no menu but in stead you select your own ingredients... Just a word of warning the spicy options are pretty warm, yes even the mild two chilli option.. The prices ranges between £9 and £11 with a standard can costing £1.50. All in all a very tasty good value meal....Thanks guys.
