    Ambience was good, service was good, would love to see less choices of deep fried dishes but more refreshing and sashimi and sushi choices. The dynamite prawns was on the too salty side. Overall experience was really good. Just grateful of having Asian food in Oxford. ❤️

    Interesting restaurant , bright lights and a large menu we needed help navigating. Worth checking what order the food arrives. If you want a bit of everything then book for lunchtime rather than evening. Take a jumper as it was quite cold on an evening in February

    Plenty of choice, without impacting the quality. Everything we had was delicious and the service was brilliant, even though it was fully booked and a Saturday night.
