    Sadly the restaurant was pretty cold and our waitress was suffering quite a lot with the flu, and so the sniffling and other flu sounds weren't great as we were served food in such an intimate environment. She should've really just taken the day off! Bit of a shame too as the staff were all very nice.

    Simple counter seating with a few booths at the back. Despite the slightly cramped quarters, an absolute treat. The food and cocktails were original and there were some unusual but fantastic fusion flavours. Perfect for a pre-theatre meal. Will definitely be back.

    Food was average, service was quite poor, served by various staff members, long wait for drinks, food arrived haphazardly. Wasn’t the best experience, there are better places in covent garden for the price.

    Food was really great - creative and fun without (quite) dropping in to being kitsch. Perhaps a bit expensive for late lunch dim sum, though.

    Generally good food but mediocre service - waiters seem too busy to pay proper attention to customers. The big communal table in the middle makes the place look crammed. I'd still recommend to try this restaurant, as the food is interesting.

    We ordered four small plates to share - the Pac Man dumplings were good, the chicken dumplings with mushroom ragu were excellent. The prawn and chicken lollipops were huge and very deep fired, but tasty. The crisy kale was fab. We also ordered grilled prawn fried rice, which never arrived and we forgot about it. Also we failed to read the itemized bill where we were charged for it anyway. The restaurant says the chef is positive we got it, but we 3 are positive we did not. Our fault, as we did not check the bill, but the restaurant could have checked further. It was very expensive for what it was (over £200 for 3 with wine/drinks), and when a party with children was there, we could not hear a thing! Acoustics are not great.

    I guess you are paying for where it is . The food is OK but really not worth £130 for 2 people . The resturant is functional in decor so can't even get to the price point on that . It was full so what do I know . I didn't hate it , just really not worth the money

    The host was so rude and awful to us. We had booked a quick dinner to meet before seeing a show for 3 of us and we shared 2 starters and a main between because we weren’t that hungry but still wanted to try the restaurant and the host was extremely rude to me saying that next time we should never do this and each person had to order a main and straight up asking us when we were going to leave. It ruined a perfectly good evening where we actually really enjoyed the food and were talking about coming back - but when the host actually started arguing with me and lecturing me we pretty much were like we’re never coming back! Such a shame! If the restaurant was so adamant amount minimums maybe they should include that when booking or when we ordered instead of attacking us when paying the bill. Just awful.
