I was surprized how affordable the food was. It was a good experience.

Ambiente molto bello e che richiama allo stile cinese con il legno dell'arredamento, i quadri e le decorazioni. Atmosfera molto accogliente e locale poco rumoroso. L'ampia scelta nel menù è da apprezzare, ho provato molte cose e sono tutte buonissime, con una qualità decisamente migliore rispetto ad altri posti in cui sono stata. Da apprezzare anche l'offerta di bevande asiatiche, alcoliche e non. Servizio ottimo, camerieri e titolari gentili, simpatici e disponibili. Ottima rapporto quantità/qualità/prezzo. Se non fosse che abito a 25 minuti in auto sarei lì almeno una volta alla settimana.

Authentic, old fashioned Chinese restaurant located outside of city center, very close to Palazzo Te. Decent service, good food, very reasonable price. Their dessert, chocolate gelato with cream filling, is highly recommended. One star deducted for the under cooked rice, which is hard to chew.
