Amazing dishes, we had the fried soft shell crab, honey chicken, sweet and sour chicken and a fried rice. We could have licked the plates clean. It was so delicious!

We have eaten here quite a few times and the food is excellent.

There is a separate Gluten Free menu. The staff are very helpful with regard to the Gluten Free food. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for great Gluten Free Chinese food.

There is also a take out and delivery service.

Very impressed with this chinese restaurant/takeaway. Separate gluten free menu available on their online ordering site and there was a lot of variety and options on the menu. Allthough I didn't state the reason for ordering GF, the GF food was packaged in a separate bag, clearly marked and they pointed out that they had included free prawn crackers in our order that were not gluten free. Everything was very tasty, gluten free and non gluten free, so suited the whole family.

An excellent restaurant for coeliacs. We ordered a few dishes, and the non coeliacs in our group tasted both GF and GF versions. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the GF and non GF versions were difficult to tell apart. Excellent staff with good knowledge of coeliac.

They have a separate gluten free menu and staff seem really knowledgeable. They do takeaway and dine in, which I would recommend booking on the weekend. I ordered the crispy honey and chilli chicken, the best gf Chinese I've ever had.

Really, really delicious gf Chinese. Notably fewer options than the normal menu but still a much wider choice than many places. Takeaway containers clearly marked!

Chinese restaurant and takeaway in Edinburgh’s new Town. They have a separate gluten-free menu, and gluten-free takeaway meals are packaged separately from other food.
