"Excellent food. Tempura Prawns can't be beaten. Everything else was ace and the service first class.
Went back on Saturday and we had to book as the place was full. Had different dishes and each one was excellent. We really like this place. All the waiting staff are very friendly and it was great food."

"Absolutely Fabulous place to eat!
We were lucky as they found a table for us even though we hadn't booked and it was very busy being a Friday night. The decor is beautiful and we received first class service from start to finish.
Both of our dishes were delicious....we will definitely be returning next time we are in Blackpool. An excellent dining experience from start to finish! Thanks to all."

"Great food. Excellent service. I had pad Thai and that was enough for me. I'm a big guy and there was enough there for me to start my new year's eve. The chicken and prawns are really tasty. Will I come again? Definitely. There's an early dinner set menu 😂"
