Someone recommended this place to me and I was excited to try it but was quite disappointed in the end.

The menu like a lot of these Chinese restaurants in town is just too big first of all. I m sure there are really nice dishes available but the choice is just far too much and it just isn t necessary. If you look at Hang Dai they re probably the busiest and best Chinese in Dublin at the moment and their menu is refined.

I ordered the salt and chilli squid for started and the squid was cooked perfectly but it was way too over seasoned and not pleasant to eat. For mains I got the pork ribs in the sweet sour sauce and it pork ribs came in little tiny bites of pork with the bone still on which made it almost impossible to eat. I thought it was going to come in two large ribs on the bone and not in little bits. Aswell as this the sauce was far too sweet and had no spur ele the at all.

The waiter was courteous and the restaurant is nice inside but that s really where the positives start and end.

I won t be coming back unfortunately.
