"About five or six years ago, the Link was my top pick for eating out in our area, then it inexplicably closed and changed into a succession of Indian restaurants. Don 't get me wrong fine restaurants in themselves, but the Link was the best Cantonese restaurant I 've ever eaten in. I was so pleased to see that the original owners had returned and reopened it again, but there 's always the worry, would it really be as good as I remembered? Set on the bottom half of Measham 's main street, the Link is a renovated pub, with copious parking to the rear. A decent sized restaurant, with seating suitable for all sizes of party. As it was a quiet Thursday night, we managed to get the round table (more social) with the 'Lazy Susan ' in the middle; great fun was had by all rotating the dishes around the table. The service was as friendly and helpful as I remembered with prawn crackers to munch on whilst you peruse the huge menu. Being rather lazy, we went for the set meal C for 4. Set meals range from around £15 per person for the Vegetarian to about £25 for the full works banquet. The first course was a platter to share with sesame toast, won tons, chicken satay, barbecue ribs, seaweed and spring rolls, all very tasty and a great start to the meal, the chicken satay being particularly flavoursome. The next course was superbly cooked aromatic duck, eloquently served up by the owner; perfectly cooked duck, shredded spring onion and cucumber, with sweet plum sauce perfect! The course pacing was perfect, 15 20 minutes between each course, the TsingTao was flowing down nicely, the signs that the Link had returned with a bang, were good. The main courses were the only thing that could knock this from a 5 star rating, thankfully the four dishes that came with our set meal were largely a triumph, the beef in black bean sauce, just melted in the mouth, the two chicken dishes were bursting with flavour and the seafood dish in a birds nest, had a good variety with scallops, mussels and squid, but lacked a little flavour. The large portion of Yung Chow Rice that came with the main dishes complimented each dish perfectly too. A great meal, overall, I don 't think I 've ever been so happy to see a restaurant return, this will definitely become one of our regular haunts again, happy days!"

The food at this restaurant was incredibly fresh, delicious, and served hot. The service was exceptional and they went above and beyond to make my birthday memorable, even though we didn't mention it when booking. They surprised me with a cake and gift. Thank you - we will definitely be returning.
