"Staff was accommodating, and greetings were warm. They noticed Romania wasn't my first language and brought a menu to me right away that was easier for me. Very kind staff. I found the food much to my liking. Different styles then I may be accustomed to in my neighborhood. Overall an enjoyable visit. Thank you. Multumesc!"

"The food was done fast and tasted amazing, waiters were polite and fast. I just minded the music, I wish they played Chinese music instead of techno/haus, this way it's more authentic."

"There is a lot of variety of food to chose from (e.g. frog legs, imperial duck or sheep) , not just the usual noodles and beef. There are also some Chinese drinks, albeit not in a large variety. The food is well cooked and very tasty. The prices are on the average side (special dishes costing a bit more, but that's understandable). The staff (including the owner) is great and very helpful. Overall we had a great time and we definitely recommended the place."

"I have been to very many asian/chinese restaurants in Romania in hopes to find an accurate, traditional and authentic chinese restaurant and i am glad to say that this is the ONLY restaurant of this kind in Romania. The food is absolutely delicious and comparable to authentic restaurants that can be found in western europe. The owners of the restaurant are chinese immigrants who contribute to the authenticity of this restaurant. The ladies were kind and explained every menu item to us. We had the duck dishes and they were absolutely amazing, similar to ones i had in cities like Prague and Berlin. To have such a gem in a small city in south Romania is a blessing. Enjoy your visit!"
