Food was very average. All three meals came out separately over a 20 minute period and the rice never arrived for which the waiter offered no explanation or apology and was quite arrogant. Not impressed to say the least

We booked a table for 8 people for 7.30 had to wait until 8.10 to be seated ordered starters which included crispy duck, vegetable spring rolls, calamari and spare ribs. The springs rolls were bland and only had shredded cabbage, the ribs were so small and very bony. The duck didn’t arrive for another 20mins. We were pressured to order our main course due to the kitchen closing and we were told they had no chicken left. One of our main courses arrived and sat on its own for 10minutes then the duck arrived which was inedible,hardly any meat on it and lots of fat and bones( we sent that back)The pancakes had been microwaved and were all stuck together,impossible to pull apart. Our remaining dishes arrived however our starter plates hadn’t been cleared and we weren’t offers clean plates. The portions have shrunk considerably in recent times and we were looking forward to having the sticky chicken. The service was very poor and we felt like it had been a long service and we were at the end of it. We’d heard that R & G have opened another restaurant on the harbour and we hope this isn’t the reason for the drop in standards.

My first time trying traditional Chinese and it was an amazing treat! Crab was so good and the place was busy at lunch time. Don't forget to get the desert, you won't regret it. Staff was attentive and looking forward to going again!

Beijing smoked duck was really juicy and tasty. The staff was friendly. But the atmosphere in the basement is not so nice and the toilet was so dirty that I will not visit this restaurant again.

Muuuuust-try: Beef brisket & Turnip in a clay pot. The best brisket beef in clay pot that I have ever tried. It is soft and the doneness is perfect. The soup is a bit sweet but it is understandable as this is not beef soup. The taste of beef itself is fantastic.Tip: Try to come before 8:50 p.m. Their business hour ends at 9:30 but they do not accept new customers early before that. We came around 8:50 and were lucky to be served the last customers.Don't miss it.The other dish is baked black cod. Personally it is a bit oily for the part that is close to the skin. The upper part is great but not as amazing as the beef brisket & Turnip in a clay pot.

All I can say is EXCELLENT! Isaac our server was super nice! There is fast food Chinese food and Cuisine Chinese food, guess which this falls under ?? EXCELLENT Chinese food ? Oh and I forgot to tell you…we had the BEST margaritas EVER at any Chinese restaurant!

Not Chinese food, it's Chinese Cuisine! Best Margarita I've ever had, one of the top fives outside of Mexico!

Amazing food with great service!

What a meal. Six of us went and each ordered a different menu option. The sea bass was incredible, the noodles were fantastic, and each course was a new favorite item we have eaten so far. The menu is vast, so ask the staff for assistance and you cannot go wrong.

It’s really a fantastic place to try Chinese traditional food there especially with family or friends. All is freshly and quality! I did try some similar style restaurants but I can tell you that much, this one is awesome ? but I do like to go to during lunch time , you have to reserve table if you want to have dinner there.
