Reviews of Crown Buffet Chinese Restaurant
R. Y.
Absolutely flipping fantastic. My boyfriend and I come here often and there is not one thing I can say to fault it. Food is always served extremely fast and hot considering the restaurant is often busy and staff have to serve such high quantities of food with the buffet menu. Manager is absolutely lovely and genuine, unlike a lot false managers nowadays. As well as this, the staff are incredibly genuine, welcoming and understanding. Would give this ten stars if I could.
K. s.
Very local Cantonese restaurant. Lots of choice of dum sum. For dim sum menu, it starts from 1200 to 1730. You can find it in their website.
The waitress can speak Cantonese and is nice. I like this feeling very much. It is like coming back Hong Kong. I will come back soon.
The tablewares are clean. The distance between each tables are far enough. Overall, the environment is cozy.
But I hope the television on play sometimes can run Viutv TV program, such as "mirror go", "大叔的愛", "男排女將, 七救星, error自肥企劃...or at least films of Stephen Chow 周星馳...

We found this Chinese buffet to replenish our empty stomachs. The food was good for a buffet standard and the portions were a really good size. The service was very good and efficient. The only reason it’s not five star is the restaurant seemed a little run down and in need of a decorator to work some magic, also the toilets had seen better days.
L. P.
I have lived in Leeds most of my life and cannot believe I have not been here before.
Anyway visited tonight with my husband. If you want somewhere fresh and swanky this is not the place for you as it is a little jaded round the edges but what you will get is the most amazing staff who are incredibly friendly and helpful.
We had the buffet option and everything brought to the table was freshly cooked and tasted delicious and you can just pick and choose what you want as you go along.
Its always a plus when the Chinese community choose to eat in a restaurant too so you know it must be good! Well worth the £20 per head.
B. D.
Beautiful food, decent prices. Portions are a tad small and not the buffet type we are all accustomed to. They keep bringing the food to you so you can no longer load up your plates. I understand that though due to food wastage. The decor looks a little dated but all in all, well worth a visit.
C. A.
Kids friendly and nice staffs. All the foods ordered delicious 😋 and hot 🔥 my kids love it, so we will definitely go again.
S. L.
Outstanding food and service at an affordable price. You order as much as you want off the menu for only £21.00
T. T.
It was OK but confusing at the same time. It's a buffet (with menu and prices against each item) and you actually get to eat all you can.
The catch is that you don't serve yourself (except ice-cream), you stay seated and ask for what you want. They'll deliver the food in small plates and they're less likely to bring two of the same item, e.g. for two kids even if you wanted it like that, you may have to ask again.
The members of staff are nice and friendly and are quick to come around to ask if you'd like to order more food.
All the foods I ordered were nice but the Mrs was unlucky with two different dishes that just didn't taste as expected or even close, so she struggled with those, hence the reason for the three stars.
The location has a parking and more spaces just outside so parking should work out fine in most cases.

I went here yesterday evening to celebrate my birthday with family. It was an overall pleasant experience. The food was mostly good apart from one or two main course dishes that were a bit of a let down. But I know not to choose these if I go again. The starters and side dishes were all very good though. The service was also mostly good apart from a couple of incorrect orders and order delays possibly because of the language barrier of a couple of the waiters. Plus there were 13 of us at one table and the place was busier than expected on a Tuesday which slowed the service down a little. But all in all I would most definitely visit this place again.
X. D.
Amazing food and good service too
A. L.
The only surviving Dim Sum place in Leeds. The only issue I have about this place is ventilation. When the open the extended space at the side that area has poor aeration and it feels stuffy.
b.
Lovely food and lovely people. 1st visit and will definitely not be the last. The quality of food is fantastic and will cater to your needs. Highly recommended
C. B.
All of the staff were so polite did everything and more for me and my husband tonight the food is to die for sooo nice!!!
And for those tight on cash bargain! Definitely recommend!!!
B. M.
Great service on the buffet, and nice variety. It's worth the £20 for the buffet, but I wouldn't rush back. The main menu did look really good though.
A. E.
If you are looking for a hot , freshly prepared chinese buffet, Crown is a good option.
S. A.
Been a few times now and always been very nice and clean, food is always 100% looking forward to going again.

Don't think they liked me ! Everything I ordered didn't arrive. Rest of our party really enjoyed their food!
A. D.
Great place, all what you can eat of excellent quality fresh food. Amazing service.
Parking available.
D. N.
Excellent all you can eat venue, order from the menu as much as you like and it's all cooked fresh no food out on display, less than £20 per person. Food is full of flavour and excellent to try different dishes .
T.
Has become quite expensive and not as value as it used to be. No dessert trolley and the portion sizes are much smaller. Starters and dips not as good, over cooked prawns too. Disappointing.
M. S.
The food was amazing, hot and fresh!! Wait time was barely 10 minutes. Clean and spacious. The staff are amazing.
B. M.
Good food , friendly staffs and clean toilet. Parking places are limited but free private parking very important for our business car.
B. F.
Took a little while to get seated, even with a reservation, but the food is so worth it!!! Definitely recommend ordering from the Chinese menu :)
L. V.
Delicious food with good service. You can order anything you want from the menu if you choose the buffet package (a bit expensive but good value of money). I love their king prawn and char siu dishes. The dessert also included, a sweet ending for our lunch there. Will go back :)
J. W. (.
Great food and great value
C. Y.
Really enjoyed the food so tasty and the staff were very friendly
C. K.
If you are going to take children and they happen to be of a certain height, tough luck. They are charged as adults. As eat as much as you can buffets go, there is some variety but the service can be slow considering that it is table service only at the moment. Try the chicken and noodles, it is recognisable at least. For much of the rest you need to be a connoisseur.
D. n.
Great food, massive selection. Friendly staff.
S. R.
I come here most Friday afternoons and enjoy the food and atmosphere every time. The waiters are very warm
and friendly.
J. F.
One of our go to places for Chinese food. Food is always lovely and staff are friendly and helpful
K. C.
Came here plenty of time foods gd decent affordable price, busy enough, lovely staff
o. o.
I was there for a Sunday time out with a friend and we opted for a buffet. I liked their assortment of meals although my taste buds did not agree with some of the meal selections.
Anyway, if you're looking for a nice Chinese restaurant in Leeds, Crown Chinese is worth your penny
I.
Delicious chinese buffet, you can eat as much as you want for £15.99
How it works? Instead of self service like you can find in every typical buffet in this restaurant you order anything you want from the menu and very friendly staff keep bringing your freshly made to order food to you as many times as you want. You can order all your favourite food at ones (this is how we do it:) or one dish after another.
Moreover every time you go there you gather stamp for each person you paid and after 10 stamps you are entitled to have a free bottle of wine and one free meal🙌
P. C.
All food is good and the staff are very kind
Y. Z.
Very hard to find a good Chinese restaurant. But we are lucky this time.
T. B.
Awesome food and friendly staff. The only reason it is not 5 stars is on 3 seperate occasions now when I have ordered all of our mains it didn't come out all at once, so I've been sat there with my curry and no rice or the other way round on another visit. I know its a popular place to eat and they are busy, but I don't think I'm being unreasonable to think everything I've ordered as mains should come out at the same time.
t. b. a. r. A. a.
Food was lovly nice and fresh the staff wear very helpful would definatly go back again xxx

All you can eat easy when it explained to you

We luved it. Had read that decore was poor. Ignore that, it's a damn good Chinese. The food is served plainly, nicely. The quantities served as buffet servings are spot on and at right temperature. The staff really know their stuff and helpful. Go. We'll be back. Luv it.

This is a hidden gem in town centre! Honestly the best Chinese food I've ever had . All dishes come freshly prepared and you could actually tell the sauces and ingredients are fresh and homemade and not just pre-packaged food. There is a big variety on the menu and plenty of things to try. If you have any allergies talk to the manager and they are more than happy to accommodate! The staff js so friendly and helpful and the manager was great too. Offered so much information and told us what other dishes would be suitable for my friend and I (vegetarian and vegan dishes). Would definitely recommend this place!
J. P.
Great food !! Great service

Great food, friendly staff. Dim sum is top level. recommended.

Good food ..the world's most complicated menu choices await you... don't even think about sharing 😁
T. C.
We went after my daughter's graduation and the dim sum was not bad at all. Serive could be a bit better. The decor is a bit shabby. The external building and car park could also do with some repair.
D. M.
Didn't even know this place existed till I googled buffets in Leeds. Can't believe I've missed so many food opportunities!! Staff are so friendly and the food is amazing. Will definitely be back.
C. J.
The food here has always been great! Great service and friendly staff, me and my girlfriend come here quite often. The food is also very good for value..... Great place.
R. M.
Friendly staff, well priced, good food. Go when hungry for best effects

Absolutely fantastic.
Brilliant value, not currently a "buffet" because of Covid, but a table service of the full menu. All cooked fresh.
Both me and my Daughter loved our time here.

Love the fact you can pick and choose and it's brought to you. Good selection and food always comes out piping hot.

My favourite dim sum place in Leeds. Their Chinese egg tarts are the best I’ve had for a very long time. Food are always out piping hot. My children loves coming here for their traditional Chinese dim sum. Staff are always very friendly and welcoming

#Hotpot buffet includes all you can eat at the dessert bar👍👍
M. R. L.
Was lovely food and staff were nice and helpful. Only thing was the waiting times between ordering and actually getting the food.
P. Q.
Friendly staff, great dim sum and good value. Recommend.
g. t.
Basic facilities but boy fantastic food , served by miserable waitresses who are so glum its unreal but if you ignore the staff the food is to die for and fantastic value for money.lf you don't want stylish surrounds but appreciate good food try here.
F. L. M.
It's ok, a bit slow and not much variety on desserts just ice-cream
X. Y.
The food taste very fantastic, the chief comes from Hong Kong, so both dimsum and dinner is very traditional.
N. L.
Really good food, waiters speak good english and are really helpful. Fantastic value for money

S. G.
Friendly staff, buffet just 18.49 per adult. Delicious food. Parking on front door. Simple interior, but with plenty of sitting area and for couples as well as for large family or group of friends. Walked in on Saturday afternoon a
without pre-booking and easy got free table. Reccomend.

Tasty food, perfect service, starters came out fast, made on orders as unlimited buffet
M. B.
Excellent food, and service although unfortunately the serve yourself buffet was not available, due to covid guidelines, so all orders were taken at the table. You are still allowed to order as much as you can eat. Will be back and hopefully everything wil soon l be back to normal
A. E.
Cracking Dim Sum and a big pot of tea.
Went back again today. Very happy. Tried some new stuff. Prawns in seaweed. Prawn meat stuffing wrapped in seaweed and then tempura fried. Really tasty crunchy and sweet prawns.
Deep fried noodle wrapped prawns with egg. It was off the specials menu. A bit big to eat with chopsticks but really interesting and very tasty.
Finally the tea was really good again
E. T. (.
I'll definitely be going here again, I loved the all you can eat buffet, it was done abit definitely due to covid, the staff were so nice, place could do with updating abit especially the toilets but the food was great.
J. J. A.
All the food was delicious. Surely will recommend this.

J. D.
Really enjoyed the food and good service for a reasonable price. Can't fault it.
T. P.
Love the food love the atmosphere good service and the hygiene is good specially this pandemic they check your temperature before they give you tables!
O. B.
For a buffet it's definitely 5 stars, no need to leave your table just order as much or as little as you like from the menu. Staff very friendly and fast service. Only comment would be on the wait to be seated.
A. B.
Some food was cold by time complete order arrived to the table
H. R.
Friendly service and very good food! Char Sui soft and flavourful and Peking dumplings moist on the inside, crispy on the outside. Small wait for food but to be expected. Loved it, will be back!
E. L.
Slow service not like an actual buffet as you have to wait for food to be specifically cooked for you food was okish though but yeah its no really an all you can eat if you waiting half hr for your food to come before being able to order again to wait
E. O.
The food is fair but not great. The interior could do with some refurbishment and tidying. Service was okay and staff friendly.
P. Q.
Good menu choices, nice staff, authentic HK dim sum vibe. Recommend.
J. G.
Fresh cooked food, as much as you can eat! Excellent A++
J. K.
Love it here. All you can eat buffet but cooked fresh to order! Not too expensive we eat at least once a month!
S. C.
Very good food. It is obviously difficult to run a "buffet" style resturant with the staff having to bring a constant supply of small plates of food. Staff were clearly working really hard but we got somebody else's food on one occassion and i had to ask several times to get a dish i wanted. However staff really did their best and it didn't take away from a lovely couple of hours. I gave it 5* and would live to go again.
L. t.
Super food, super staff, super prices! Would highly recommend a visit
J. L.
It’s a pretty average Chinese restaurant with slightly overpriced food for its portion and flavour, especially its dim sums. But since there’s no competitions surrounding it for dim sum, it’s good enough.
A. D.
Great staff, great environment and amazing food. You will have to book in advance as they are always busy😍.
You will need extra time to park as its hard to park 👍
O. K.
I still can't think of food.. It's been about an hour since last bite. Haven't been so full before I think. Everything is really good.. Nice staff and buffet price isn't bad at all.

Food was great, made to order so not your usual left heated meals to dig at from your usual buffet. Oh and for £15 what a bargain, definitely check this place out.
B. J.
Was there last week 30/8/18. My daughter and my friend. Was delicious any thing you wanted off the menu. All done to order and fresh x
A. C.
Nice food best all you can eat around. Service was disappointing when I last went, placed our starter order and 30mins late they came over to say they needed to take the order again, when I asked why, the waitress just said her English was not very good. When the food came it was lovely but I did end up paying £5 for my 3 year old daughter who just had some prawn crackers despite me just asking for prawn crackers for her.
L. T.
Excellent food and value for money!!!
M. H.
Nice food been to this place a few times and always enjoyed the food always leave to full

Different to the help yourself style all you can eat buffets as you request the food and it's cooked fresh then brought to you. Well worth a visit! Been several times already.

If you have eaten at this Chinese restaurant as I had a few years back I was pleasantly surprised as to how it has changed. it has transformed into a fantastic place to eat. The staff are extremely welcoming and made you feel right at home. I would totally recommend this place the food was first class. And if the local Chinese are eating here that says a lot.
T. H.
Very good food. Buffet from main menu but tappas portions. Good value. Outside of the building of tatty and needs attention and inside is tired but if you can see beyond that the for is worth going for.
M. “. B.
Brilliant food and even when fully packed out with customers they get food out to you in a reasonable time. The menu is pretty large and varied. It is all you can eat but you order from a menu so it's all cooked fresh. It's £15/person as of Feb 2018
G. S.
Lovely place and very good staff and service. The manager and the lady serving us today were really kind. Lovely Seabass. Go for Ala carte menu. Will visit again.
S. B.
The best selection of dishes, multiple choices and all freshly cooked and reasonably priced.

Nice place good food been may of times will go back

Not been here since it was the academy years ago format has changed one price and you can then order as many times as you like from the menu. Food is good the portions are not big but you make up for that by ordering and trying something different all in all s good meal

All you can eat easy when it explained to you
M. B.
Nice food, great staff. Feel the place itself needs a bit of an update. Feels a bit dated and showing signs of wear and tear. Could do with a bit of TLC. Still recommend it though.
S. S.
Excellent food and atmosphere but the service could be slow sometimes.
M. B.
Excellent eatery, food is well cooked & plentiful, as much as you can eat buffet for £15.49. Staff are attentive & friendly. I have been on several occasions. Visited by many east Asians so can't be bad.
D. J.
Great service and nice food.
P. L.
Excellent quality food and perfectly sized portions. The food was freshly prepared and delivered hot. The drinks were quickly delivered and exactly as ordered.
A range of simple cakes, jellies and ice cream are available for buffet users.
The staff are very efficient and wonderfully polite. Always available, but never intrusive.
The restaurant is spotlessly clean and a totally comfortable environment.
Prices are reasonable and limited parking is free.
My friends and I had a delicious relaxed meal for less than £20 each. We will return.

Great food and staff reasonably priced

Food was great for the buffet, however the one waitress we had was so unhappy to be there, ruined the experience for us
A. C.
Good food, a lot of choice
S. P.
Strange place.... its advertised as a Chinese buffet but you pick bits off the menu rather than get it yourself from the buffet.
Seems you get charged a hefty add-on though if you are deemed to waste any food.... so only order what you like and don't try things you might not like!
S. E.
Good dim sum.
G. N.
Superb food.Vibrant atmosphere. Super staff. A gem.

Top notch, food delicious and staff are all lovely and friendly.

Always really enjoy our meals at this unique chinese buffet. All meals are from the menu and the staff bring freshly cooked food to your table quickly and with a smile. Nice atmosphere, and despite it being busy quite often we have never had to wait for a table or service. Bargain price for the quality (& quantity!) of food!!
D. F.
Very good food, made to order, the atmosphere is pretty good, it’s unfortunate I had to give it 4/5, this wasn’t for the restaurant at all, this was mainly cause kids where running around, picking food up out of the dessert area with their hands and putting it back. The sweet and sour was nice but heavy on the food colouring or whatever colouring they use, it’s more to the sour than sweet side. I’d recommend this to anyone who’s wanting a Chinese buffet but I’d recommend going afternoon rather than evening.
i. y.
Nice food...but the staff are constantly staring you out.
L. L. (.
Crown Chinese Restaurant is one of my favourite all you can eat Chinese restaurants. All food is made to order so you just keep ordering of the menu, and they just keep bringing it out. Great price, great staff, great food! Highly recommended
H. S.
Nice big buffet restaurant. For someone who doesn't normally have Chinese food I was pleasantly surprised. For £16.49 you can't go wrong. Portions are mostly small, but allows you to order lots of different dishes. Staff were nice and friendly. Only gripe would be the desserts are poor. Good that there's ample free parking at the front and on the street after 6pm, but be warned it gets busy.
G. Z.
Great place, great food and great staff. Highly recommended!
A. M.
Excellent service, excellent food! All you need to know really!! 😊
S. M.
Went with friends and went for the menu not the buffet option many people mention.
Portions were good size and meals we had were nice. Worked out about £16 per person so similar to buffet.
Warning for anyone sensitive to spice, one dish we had was 1/3 on spice scale and very spicy, but I enjoyed it.
Waiting staff could have been a bit more attentive as they seemed to be covering another room and not easily accessible.
S. S.
Lovely food and staff cart do enough for you and the food just keeps coming
m. s.
Really tasty food, friendly service. Vfm

Wonderful authentic Chinese food, service and atmosphere. My favourite!
T. T.
Lovely staff. Great food. Good atmosphere.

wow love this place . can get really busy at times . you order your food and cooked fresh and you can eat as much as you want . so what I do I order and when food comes I order what I want next as service very slow when busy and if you don't order you will wait a very long time for them to ask if you want anything else . love the food and would recommend to everyone
S. B.
Best quality of buffet food I've ever had. Makes such a difference when everything is made fresh to order. Also I like that they don't say 'you must eat everything you pay for', which is a pressure I don't enjoy at other eateries in case you don't like something! Only difficulty is parking but there are spaces on roads nearby if you have some change to pay for it, if the spaces are full on site.
O. O.
It's nice here buffet okay good price friendly environment.
V. M.
Lovely Chinese. Really helpful when called about vegetarian option. Will definitely order again.
P. D. S.
Concept of business great, buffet restaurant but instead of having food all out for you to go up taking what you want it's order as much as you like from a menu and it's brought out fresh.
Would be a 4 star review as food is good just the service fails when busy, not getting what you order and stuff taking ages.
Recommend trying at a quieter time.
M. S.
Great food in pleasant atmosphere.
N. P.
This place is great, location on the outskirts of leeds, free parking - have an al a carte 'buffet' menu so everything is cooked fresh. Food is very good! Staff are really friendly and accommodating and service is quick. Would recommend
C.
Without doubt my favourite Chinese restaurant! Every dish I have tried is delicious! All you can eat. The manager is super lovely. One time, he put my fiancé and I in the private room as it was busy. By the end of the evening, there were just the two of us so he said we should dance and let us choose the music. It was really sweet and romantic 😊💖
C. K.
Excellent service and food
D. B.
Fantastic food. Excellent service easy parking
G. M.
Excellent Chinese buffet. 1st place I went while in Leeds and well worth the price
R. P.
Staff were really really nice. The place was packed which is always a good sign. Got the buffet where you order from the menu and have as much as you want. Everything I ate was amazing. Staff constantly come to see if you want anything. Would definetly reccomend. Best Chinese I've had in leeds.
I. P.
The food is very good but I wouldn't say it is a buffet as you order the food and the staff bring it to you
C. S.
Food was delicious and you feel guilty for ordering so much but the portion ate tapas size.. lost a star only because there was no drinks menu and quite surprised at the soft drinks prices when the bill came
G. B.
The buffet is great. The service is good but it's very busy... You might want to book ahead

Wonderful food on the buffet, but the service is very poor and unorganised

Amazing and authentic dim sum, perfect for large groups. The food is outstanding and the staff are very attentive. Will definitely return here if I find myself in Leeds again as it is by far the best restaurant in Leeds.

A proper Chinese restaurant with lots of traditional dishes, staff are always ready to help.
d.
Had a great time here celebrating birthday.. As always we enjoyed the food but the only bad thing, and the reason I knocked a star off.. the waitresses don't get the tips! Seems really unfair to me..so next time we'll tip to their hand
A. A.
Pricing has gone up and it's now fairly expensive for a buffet especially once you add your drinks on, however it is very nice food and has very fast polite service :)
T. B.
Staff were lovely. The style of buffet is unusual. You keep ordering from the menu and they bring it out freshly made. My only issue here was that the food took way too long to come out. I had my sauce and waited over 10 minutes for my rice to come out, by that time the sauce was cold. Some of our orders never came at all. We spent 1 hour 45minutes at the resturant and its fair to say 20minutes of this was actual eating time. The rest was waiting time.
The food was okay. I would not deter anyone from coming here, its definitely worth a visit, just be prepared to wait for your meal to come out.
Z. M.
Best restaurant in Leeds, Chinatown style food, everything is delicious.
D. R.
Great service, great food, would happily go again
K. L.
Good food. This place has authentic Chinese dishes. We had some dim sum, about £9 per person. But the tea was bland, needed more tea leaves.
K. Y.
Food was amazing and freshly cooked. All you could eat for under £20 and you could order as much as you like.
B. D. b.
4 stars for food. Zero for customer service.🤬 Staff started to move our dishes before we'd even finished eating! They were obviously in a rush to shut shop for a private party which was obviously happening. Didn't leave a tip and Wont be going again!
J. S.
Best Chinese buffet out there I think dim sum menu at lunch then Chinese and traditional hot pot on evening if you really fancy it the have private karaoke booths too
L. M.
Best chinese ever. The food is amazing freshly cooked to order, We have dim sum but have had buffet also & equally great food. The staff are all lovely always make you feel welcome. Our son loves all the attention
Recommend to anyone to eat here.
j. d.
Really good food
T. C.
Really well managed and mannered staff.
Clean and hygienic
Really nice fresh food for Europeanised Western Chinese meals but also very very specialisted in traditional things.
Hot pots are amazing from there.
It’s well spaced out and not overwhelming.

Excellent food really enjoyed going back again soon
H. H.
Great staff, great value and great food.
M. B.
Great service, clean tidy and fresh. Would recommend
R. F.
Value over quality. Home is much better. This is more of a tapas Chinese. The sauce on certain dishes I felt as if the sauce was just covering the meat and vegetables. Needed more flavour, more seasoning and more effort required. Increase your prices and serve with more love. Service was good.
C. D.
Gone downhill since our last visit won't be going back in a hurry.
A. D.
This place has an insane amount of choice, including both larger plates of food as well as a large range of smaller nibbles. Images of the food really help you have a look at what you're getting too.
The food itself is always really nice and the portions are quite large (which for me personally is a positive). The value is really good too. I'd suggest 2 smaller plates per person, or 3, but only if you're really hungry.
The staff here seem really nice, and the place itself is quite okay, however the reception area is small and can get very packed even with a short queue. There's live music with TV, and it feels very authentic.
Even at off times it's quite busy, mind you.
M. D.
great buffet and great service. prices very favourable

You're paying a little more than you would in a normal all you can eat but food cooked fresh and the service and staff are superb.
S. J.
Great 'order from the menu' eat as much as you want so food arrives freshly cooked at your table. Good value. Some dishes are not so good but there satay chicken and prawn dishes are very good.
D. H.
Not an open buffet but you can eat as much as you wish from the menu. All food is freshly cooked to order so be prepared to wait about 10 mins between dishes. Once served, you'll agree it is worth waiting for.

J. L.
It's rare that you get food service staff who don't treat you like you're invisible, or an inconvenience. It's also occasional that some of your food might not be as tasty as you hoped, or you might feel like you've overpaid.
Tonight, none of the above happened. Everyone was warm and friendly and appreciated our custom. The food was fantastic, and whilst the buffet price was expensive, there were no complaints
at all due to the full experience being as pleasant as it. We would definitely go back. Thank you :)

Excellent dim sum, generous portions and very good taste

Authenic chinese food, being here twice so far and i love it❤️. If you are in Leeds definitely a restaurant to go and visit. Be sure not to waste the food though because they will charge you for it. Totally agree with this policy as people are always wasting food at all you can eat! Lovely little reward scheme too, ask for a loyalty card.
J. E.
Food was fast however it got very cold quickly.
