    Really looking forward to coming back! it is not the busiest restaurant, but I hope that people locally support this place as the food is fantastic, with some very interesting things for those who are more adventurous, but all the usuals are still there too. I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!

    This is a re-incarnation of a Japanese restaurant that used to occupy this site. Not much has been done to re-vamp the decor, or to give it a warmer more inviting atmosphere or ambience (possibly under same ownership?). On a Saturday evening, it was quiet throughout our whole time there - in about an hour and a half, maybe 10 others dined there in total. All sat in the warmer, brighter front portion of the restaurant - the larger rear section is dimly lit, uninvitingly decorated, and just feels cold and unwelcoming. The food was OK-ish, but lacking any sort of 'kick' or spiciness. Worst of the lot that we had, was a so-called "sizzling" dish, which was most certainly not sizzling when it was presented to us. It was warm enough, but was just the food sitting on a piece of aluminium foil, on top of the sort of cast iron dish used for sizzlers. This one had certainly never sizzled at any point of its short life! Strangely enough, although the takeaway menu lists 288 dishes, the main menu only has the first 90. The missing 200 or so dishes from the main menu are all the ones showing with a Chinese listing as well as an English description. Why? These missing dishes from the main menu are all the interesting, exotic ones (e.g. the Jelly Fish Head; the Frog Leg dishes, the Razor Clam dishes; the many Dumpling dishes, and so on). In term of price. although there was a 20% discount off everything, the food was still overpriced. All in all, for a 'new' restaurant, it needs a bit of a kick up the backside to get some sort of buzz about the place or it will end up suffering the fate if its predecessor.
