"This wee place is a gem of a find when we were travelling home from a road trip on the east coast. After searching on trip advisor we thought we would give it try having not eat Chinese food for a while. Boy are we glad we did! Been here a few time now in the past year and are happy to drive up from Kilmarnock to do so. Admittedly it isn 't much to look at and is tired in terms of decor with worn seats and chipped crockery, staff aren 't the most chatty and sometimes you feel they don 't have time to see to your needs especially if your sat up on the mezzanine, that being said the food does all of its talking. We have the same every time and share a couple of dishes. And were supposed to meet another two but they had to cancel. Beef Curry were the meat is so tender it just melts in the mouth with just enough spice that builds with every mouthful. We usually have the Crispy Shredded Beef in Peking sauce but tried the Crispy Shredded Chicken in Peking sauce this time. For me it was DELISH and the Peking sauce is to die for, sweet and sticky, the Wife still prefers the Beef. We always have it with egg fried rice and prawn crackers which I find can be hit or miss in many places, with some being quite greasy, these are always just right. We also got a take away or the other couple since they couldn 't make it they had Dry Ribs starter which I 'm told were excellent and Chicken Noodle soup and I Quote "Best Chicken Noodle so every tasted. Crispy Shredded Beef in Peking Sauce which they both loved also. They are n just eat so take away is easily order. We only had a soft drink with ours and it all came in at less than 50quid which I feel is reasonable. Finally, this seems to be were all the Asian Kids go which I say speaks volumes for the quality of the food. I 've never been to any other Chinese Restaurant were its full of Asians just generally Caucasian families. It 's is very small so I 'd advise booking on peak nights/times to avoid disappointment. Will return again and again. thank you"
