Depsite enjoying my food, it could have been so much better considering they should be specialist of this cuisine if "Wok" is included in their name.
Imagine an Asian Subway. This is exactly what this is and nothing more. The server greeted me and felt I was pressured to order quickly with the vibe I was having from him.
The Satay Skewers were so dry with no sauce. The noodles I had were very wet and had hardly any duck. The Duck I did have seemed to be very poor quality ...
I don't think I'd go back unless I was looking for something urgent. However, if you are in a rush, don't bother because it took over 20 minutes.

My honest opinion after leaving this "restaurant", is that it is an expensive takeaway in disguise.
I felt so disappointed and as if I had wasted money since wanting to go for so long based on others' great reviews.
We sat down and our initial thought was this little restaurant looks nice, and could not wait to order.
After ordering food and drinks, we were presented with a well-presented Duck Bun, and multiple Gyoza dishes that all tasted divine ... However, as I blinked all our mains started to appear while we were still on our starters.
A big negative for me was the £16 half Peking Duck. The menu does express there are bones, but I did not expect the whole thing to be riddled with bones. I was expecting to be able to eat this easily with some rice and noodles but turned out to be more like finger food as every bite had a bone. So many pieces were left looking untouched because there was hardly any meat on it, just crispy skin.
The most annoying part was that we felt so rushed and the Chinese waitresses were chaotic as soon as we sat down. I honestly felt like they did not want us there, or they were trying to get us out for the next customer.
I am also a little worried about the cleanliness in all honesty. As the chopsticks were made from wood, and this is not good when wooden utensils cannot be washed correctly, as they absorb anything and everything it touches.
I don't think I will ever return to this place purely based on poor customer service skills. Despite being so negative, there were some nice dishes, like the Kim-Chi Rice, Soba Noodles with Chicken and Satay Chicken Skewers ... and while I would say some dishes are worth the price, others like the Duck aren't.
