Went here while visiting Oban. Food absolutely gorgeous cannot fault it at all. Staff were lovely and friendly. Prices are to be fair reasonable for sitting in the restaurant. Overall would ho here again more if I stayed in Oban. But if we visit here again I would definitely go back
We were a bit apprehensive before going here because of some poor reviews but so glad we give it a go! The food was amazing. We had barbecue spare ribs to start...stunning! I had garlic chilli king prawn with fried rice which was delicious. My husband had beef curry with fried rice. Dont believe everything you read in the poor reviews. Give it a try and see for yourself, we did and was very happy with every aspect and would definitely visit this place again when we are next back in Oban
5 stars. We arrived late in evening but the staff were still happy to accommodate our table of 12. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they went out of their way to make our time there special. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff attentive. I would recommend anyone heading to Oban to try this special place. We will definitely be back again the next time we are in town. Thanks to Chris and his team for looking after us so well.x
The food was absolutely stunning, i really enjoyed my meal there with my friends, and the service were really kind to us and the whole place was just lovely, i really recommend going there! xx
This is the best Chinese takeaway ever. Not only is the food ready quickly, always delicious and piping hot, but they have AMAZING vegan options. Can highly recommend the vegan chicken curry, sweet and sour vegan chicken, plain chow mein, chips and salt and chili tofu. My only ask is please label the vegan options more clearly!
Friendly staff at all times. We didn’t have to wait long for the food and it was of a good quality. This is the best Asian restaurant around.
We had an excellent evening meal here. The dishes were generous with plenty of meat in the meat choices (rather than a small amount on a bed of veg you get in some places) and the veg dish had a super range of veggies. Everything was tasty and not generic "take away" flavours. Banana fritter - delicious. The service was fast and the staff friendly. We'll be back next time we're in Oban.
Was initially dubious because of a few bad reviews, but really enjoyed dinner. Restaurant staff were friendly and helpful. A lady and her son were serving us and they were both lovely. Food was really tasty and quick, especially seen as the takeaway was very busy. Seen a lot of comments about it being pricey but I think it was very reasonably priced. No more expensive than any other restaurant these days.
