The decor is nothing fancy but the place is clean and has a decent vibe. They even play traditional Chinese music in the background which adds a nice touch to the whole experience. What really wins you over is the food - genuinely tasty, portions are fair, and the service was great. The local Chinese beer is pretty good too, worth trying out. They also brought us a complimentary prosecco which was a lovely surprise. Didn't wait long after ordering either, which is always a plus. Solid spot if you're looking for a good meal without any fuss.

Best Chinese food in town! We've been here so many times, tried so many dishes and always loved it! I highly recommend the hot&sour soup and the fries. But eveything we ever had was delicious, also dishes you wouldn't usually order like frog legs with bamboo and mushrooms and the pig's ear (the latter was a total surprise - crunchy and so yummy)! The prices are good, huge portions and service is overall friendly. Just one minus - the restaurant could use a fresh coat of painting, it's seen better days.

The atmosphere is unpretentious. The staff is ok. The menu is very diverse and what we had was delicious. We enjoyed a huge portion of fries, the steamed eggplants and the pig feet. The portions are very large and the food is very good. On the terrace there was an unpleasant smell and the terrace bathroom needs more attention and cleaning. With some more attention to details or can get 4 stars, as the food is at good price, delicious and large portions.

Great, authentic food. Staff is a bit stressed and slow because of it, but otherwise good. Fair, small prices and big plates. Fries take over an hour to get done and they never have spring rolls. Still one of the best chinese restaurants i've been to. Tip: - fries are great and huge but take a long time to make - legume asortate (simple vegetables) - didnt think they would be, but were AWESOME - Shanghai shrimp: great! Huuuge portion, unlike any other restaurant that serves shrimp - order the sauce from the won tons/dumplings

So, we just went to this restaurant - I had it on my list from 2 years ago when I went there and I liked the terrace. I went there because of the good reviews. But it was not as great as I expected. We were a group of three, unfortunately I only took photos of my order. The chicken+tofu+shiitake mushroom soup was great. I would go there again to eat this, it was awesome! but then, everything else was weird. The sizzling plate duck was mediocre - when I order a hot plate dish I expect to see the dish containing my food, but there was an aluminum foil between, and when it was brought, it was definitely not sizzling. Also, in this plate, everything was great but the duck seemed boiled - and it's not nice to have boiled duck skin as it's simply gross. About the dishes of my friends, it was weird. They were quite good taste-wise, but it was weird to get kung-pao chicken that actually has no sauce. Same with the 5-color chicken. Maybe it's a recipe from a different part of China, I don't know. But everything I can find should actually have a sauce. Therefore, the rice we ordered was pretty useless. It's not bad per se, but it was quite different than what we expected, especially because the high ratings raised my expectations by a lot. The waitress kept excusing herself because she's slow, but this does not help it. To be honest, she was very friendly and helpful so I will not take points off that. Card payment is not possible, and when we told the waiter that they should have it as it's mandatory from the law, she pretty much told us how nobody cares (in her own words, but this was the message). I might come back, but I might not. Not the best chinese restaurant in Bucharest, although their terrace is pretty nice, and I've seen really nice-looking dishes at other tables. Maybe we just ordered the wrong thing.
