Great food, fresh and serviced fast. Fresh soy milk is great as well!
We found this hidden place inside the Savoy Centre and decided to give it a try. The owners are originally from Fujian as my girlfriend and so we ordered some typical dishes from that region. The ingredients might be not the freshest you can find but the taste is definitely there. Good dishes, well made and rich of flavors and very generous portions. This is only the second place I found since I’m Europe (29y) who makes dishes typically from Fujian. Very good value for money and also the service is quick and kind
Food was takeaway, missing items including two drinks and the one persons curry sauce chicken balls order. Portions were smaller than sit in but same price, overall, disappointing.
CASH ONLY. Aside from the annoyance of having to go get money from a cash point just to grab some casual food in a mall food court, we were excited for some good Chinese food after a long journey to Glasgow. The food was mid. I didn't have particularly high expectations for Chinese food in Scotland tbh as it doesn't have a great reputation for being authentic. It was nice to see a Chinese menu. It is packed full of items that are not on the confusing English menu. The English menu is basically useless for any anglophone who wants legit Chinese food here. Thankfully, I was with a Chinese person who can read the real menu. That said, the flavours were a let down. It seemed a bit bland and lacking. It wasn't bad at all, just not that good. It seemed a little toned down like they're making it for British taste buds, even though the majority of people eating there were are Asian. Or maybe it was just an off day. I'm not sure. Maybe by Scottish standards this is cheap, but for anybody else, this was VERY expensive for the portion size and quality of the food. £13-15 for basic fried noodles or beef noodle soup is completely outrageous to me for what we got and the fact it has all the ambience of eating mediocre street food in a rundown underground mall food court. It's good for a quick bite if you're not too picky, and maybe this is the best Glasgow has to offer for Chinese food (which would be sad), but I don't think I'd bother coming back. Not at those prices.
Food nice but staff always seem in hurry to put ur food down as in seeing to many table at once food slide in and balancing to next table like a shuttle service and when near done there waiting to take plates away. Although food is lovely. Just need to staff to slow down stop racing
