"Is it Asian? Is it Western? Is it an artisan coffee shop? It seems to be all of the above. Is it authentic? Wrong question. The place bills itself as an Asian fusion cafe. Considering I only saw one Asian (Singaporean? out of half of dozen staff roaming around, and I was perhaps the only Asian in the whole restaurant area, we should take the Asian part with a pinch of salt. You 've got your choice of rice and noodle dishes, sushi, or a selection of meat goodness wedged inside a steamed bun. We decided to go with the last option since it was the most out of the ordinary we were not disappointed. Between the two of us, we easily downed four pairs of meat goodness wedged steamed buns. They were tasty. Belly pork, roast duck, char siu, and Shiracha beef each pair costing £5.95. With a couple pots of hot tea and two free pastries (a deal with a hot drink , that came out to be more than your local grocery store lunch deal. Nice eats that I would come back to, but not if I were on a budget (or an Asian food snob... which I often am! ."

Amani
Food was lazy. Noodles were completely plain, no ginger or garlic or anything. Not worth the price. The star is for the good service.
Nicki
Purchased the veggie gyozas, and although they were very tasty my hunger was not satisfied after eating them. Prices are a wee bit high for the quantity. Good eat, though
Roland
Good for quick tea. You might also get a free pastry with the hot drink. I wouldn't go again because they have tea from teabags, not loose leaf very limited vegetarian options and everything has Tofu!
Carlos
Got the bbq pork and rice. For the price (7.5 pounds) it wasn't a lot of food. The pork was fairly good, not great, and there was a lot of fat that I had to separate as I couldn't eat it. So 3 stars may be a little on the generous side.

Took very long before someone actually appeared. The waiter was confused with the menu and did not know the names of dishes. The sweet sauce ribs were so sweet and hard they were unedible. The only time in my life I haven't finished my dish in a restaurant.

Everything we ordered was amazing. We had been watching it out the window of the bus everyday before being in the right place to try it. The portion sizes are a little difficult to understand but the ambience and deliciousness make up for that. Great indoor seating and a large enough venue that it doesn't feel crowded. Great vegan options as well.

I have never left a negative review in my life and I do realize that this is not a Michelin starred restaurant, but dear me, I also think that you can expect some sort of standard when you go out to eat. Unfortunately, the standard at this restaurant was very poor. Having entered the restaurant, we had to wait for several minutes to be greeted and seated. The table was very ABSOLUTELY disgusting, covered in oil and all sorts of dirt. I ordered Hot Chick, vegetables were not eatable at all. There was no taste to it at all. I totally not recommend to go there and put your health in danger!

Duck Ramen £11.95 served with a side of edamame (LOVE! ramen is well cooked duck was freshly cut and tasted like home (like what my mom would make they season the duck with hoisin sauce and an assortment of white/black sesame seeds,, it tastes amazing! a handful of small bokchoy at the bottom of the ramen, their soup is very rich I would definitely recommend this place because they sell ramen, baos, Chijeu Jeongol (Korean cheese hot pot , bibmbap (mixed rice and veggies dish , Jjigae (Korean hot pot , udon, and rice bowls! They have hot teas and coffees too!! Love their attentive service too
