    I have never been inside the restaurant because I always order delivery, but this place is the best!  Fairly priced and you get a lot for your money.  I love how you spend £20 and they give you prawn chips which are so crispy and tasty, although they are sinful.  I really look forward to my free prawn chips.

    Delivery is free also.  Best of all the take credit cards over the phone.

    Our orders have always been perfect, spot on.  Never a complaint.

    Crab meat and sweet corn soup is good.  Prawns with fresh tomatoes was weird, I got mixed up and thought prawns were some other type of seafood and I was expecting something else, but English use prawn interchangeably with shrimp.  So think of shrimp cooked with fresh tomatoes, weird right?

    One time I splurged and ordered the half Crispy Aromatic Duck served with pancakes, hoi sin sauce, cucumber and spring onion.  It was very good, although oily.  Not sure if duck is supposed to be that oily, but it was really good and I enjoyed it.  Probably won't order it again because it was £13.00.  

    Their claim to fame is the duck chow mein, it is to die for!  I suggest ordering this dish.  Again, it is on the unhealthy side, so if you are on a diet, it will be ruined.

    Ordered the chicken curry, it was more of a green curry, but none of the less very good and a bit spicy.

    As an appetiser the crispy wan ton and the barbecued spare ribs are decadent.  

    My favourite little Chinese place in Newmarket.  Same quality and service every time.

    I've ate here only a few times but have never been disappointed.  I usually order Thai style rice ( an amazing dish, Highly recommended) and mix it up with the second dish. The wait time was always reasonable. Overall, this restaurant is great for quick meal.

    Ordered delivery. Arrived 10 min earlier than expected.   Food was barely edible. Zero flavor with awful texture. I was so happy to find Chinese food that delivers. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone who care about quality.
    What it boils down to is
    Great delivery great customer service, but completely lacks on quality, flavor and meat.
    I recommend Kims bugogi or dragon house in mildenhall if you desire quality asain flare.

    Sorry if this is the best chinese from Newmarket I don't want to try the rest. Decided to have chinese last night and this place had a review saying "best chinese in Newmarket" well it was bland to say the least. I ordered a shrimp fried rice, a special fried rice which were both light/white (don't they know about soy sauce or oyster sauce on their rice) because if I wanted white rice with vegetables I would asked for that, I also ordered schezuan beef that was okay, basically beef with a few vegetables smothered with some pink syrup and my daughter ordered shrimp chow mein which was another dissapointment since it was made with sakura shrimp (tiny shrimp) and not with the usual medium shrimp on their  picture, the size of the ingredients on their food shouldn't matter because in the end they lacked taste, at least the flavors I like. Needless to say I will never order from this place again and yeah after I am pretty  upset i have no leftover chinese this morning since I threw all that mess away!
