This is the best Chinese food I’ve had in Bristol! I’ve tried their Chongqing fried chicken, Sizzling beef with black pepper, Chicken fried rice, and Egg fried rice—loved all of it. I especially recommend the chicken fried rice. The portions are generous, and you can choose your spice level. It’s a casual dining spot, and I’ve always been able to find a seat upon walking in. That said, there are a couple of areas for improvement. The restaurant can get quite cold at times, and the smoke and scent from the kitchen tend to linger in the seating area, which can be slightly uncomfortable. But this is definitely a place I tend to visit whenever I want some yummy comfort food.

This has become one of my favourite places in Bristol. We ordered the mapo tofu, green beans and beef chongqing noodles, all the dishes were amazing, spicy and flavourful. The staff is very kind and helpful as well. The atmosphere is very chill. I would definitely recommend this place.

The noodles were delicious! Clearly freshly made with great texture. Very very generous portion, too. Only downside was that my ribs were slightly on the dry side. We got some dumplings, too, which also tasted fresh and homemade rather than store bought, and were very cheap for the serving size. Will definitely return if in Bristol again.

Love this place. Totally delicious, extremely filling, no frills, and great value. I've never been to China but the reviews tell me that the food is authentic and Chinese people eat there which is a good sign. I always have the stewed beef wheat noodles 🍜 (heat strength 3, goes up to 5) and the fried meat dumplings which are both consistently great. Today we added the stir fried pork with garlic bolt - it tasted very green and very savoury and unlike anything I've ever tasted before 😋. I told the waiter I'd be coming in for the pork every day 😄. I won't of course but I'll definitely have it next time.

One of our favourite Chinese restaurants in Bristol. The Chongqing beef noodle soup was delicious and the highlight of this restaurant. The spice and the umami flavour was supreme and the beef is cooked perfectly.

I had the Crispy duck sweet potato noodles and I was pretty good. The duck was very tasty and definitely a highlight. Would have it again and try it with rice or a different noodle. You’re also able to choose your spice level. I’d recommend a 2 if u want just that tint of spice that doesn’t burn your tongue. Prices are also reasonable and the service was very fast- we got our food within minutes of ordering. It was my first time visiting so I’m not sure if they were having an off day but they got our order wrong twice. The first time they brought us two of the same dish even though we ordered one and the second we ordered meat dumpling but they brought us vegetable dumpling. But it wasn’t a big deal. I’d 100% visit again
