Fantastic food, good friendly atmosphere, a real pleasure every time we visit. We have tried lots of different dishes on the menu and each one has been fresh, tasty and beautifully cooked. Lennie the owner, puts so much effort into everything he does. It has to be the best Chinese in Newquay, you will NOT be disappointed.
