The lady is super pleasant and helpful. The food is also affordable, very little wait time, with good value for money. I’ve had take out from them twice now. The first time, I had their drunken duck, spring rolls and chicken chow mien and they were superb. Very tasty. The next time, I had the roasted pork chow mien, I didn’t thoroughly enjoy the noodles, but I have to say that the pork was delicious. My friend had gotten their chicken fried rice, and I had a taste of that. It was really tasty as well.
They give complimentary prawn crackers too, which is a nice touch.
Overall, it’s a nice place to have dinner at Ambleside.
Oh, well - it is a Chinese restaurant like many others, but lacks in ambience, so not very inviting. As to the food, it was neither bad nor really good, perfectly mediocre in every aspect but size, as they don't serve small portions. Very disappointed to be handed a menu with specials, only to order one, and then being told it's not available at all. Why not say so immediately. Would neither recommend nor warn people off, but most probably would not hasten back.
Really good takeaway last night in Ambleside. Tasty food. We just had a couple of classic beef dishes which were done well. Salt and pepper ribs were great too! Would get another one next time we’re up.
We had a mixture of things, I didn't rate the spring rolls and the sweet and sour chicken but the rest of our meal was delicious. The prawn toast was very tasty along with the scallops muscles and chow mein. We came here about 8 years ago, the woman who served us was very nice and polite.
Went there as they were the only place with seating available on a Friday. Now I understand why. The food was disgusting, to the extent that I may say it was inedible. The service was decent, but in terms of food, there is nothing on that menu worth ordering.
Party of 5 ate in this restaurant and have to say the food was fantastic and plentiful.
Opted for the Jade Banquet for 5 and it was exceptionally good. All the dishes were beautifully cooked and were very good portions. No one left there hungry!
Highly recommended.
We were lucky enough to be staying near to China Cottage on a recent holiday to Ambleside. We went in for diner one night, for amazing food and really friendly service. We liked it so much that we returned another 2 times that week for takeaway. Great vegan options, delicious tofu, very tasty sauces, quick service. Wish I lived nearer as I would eat here all the time.
Lovely family friendly restaurant with authentic feel. Great service and food! The ribs are especially nice!????????
