Have been here a few times now and we always receive fab service. It is the kind of place that is very relaxed and you never feel rushed by the staff, who are always very kind and friendly to us. The setting is spotlessly clean and the food is unbelievable. Great portions, added with lots of options to choose from and at reasonable prices, this restaurant will keep us coming back for more. Well done!

A lovely meal for my birthday. We had a set meal for two. It was absolutely delicious and there was so much, we had to take some doggie bags home with us.

What can I say, we arrived here to a lovely welcome from a charming lady. The restaurant was immaculate. The dishes were different to how my local restaurant,which is Cantonese, does things. My favourite of what we had was honey and orange sauced spare ribs. If I said much more I wouldnt have time to say visit this restaurant which like many in the current economic climate would appreciate you. If you’re visiting for the Train of Lights pop in for something to eat afterwards, it’s 10 minutes walk

Loved it! The food was top notch traditional 'English' Chinese - if you know what I mean. Great selection and lots of choices. Food was served very hot and was at our table really quickly. Staff could not have been more helpful or welcoming. I wish we lived closer so we could go more often!

The food is delicious. We like the chicken satay, duck fried rice and Cantonese Sweet & sour pork.

A fabulous chinese resturant wit quality food and freindly service, we hadn't booked a table, but as it was early evening it didn't really matter, the food was excellent! I would highly recommend if your staying locally.

Usually the takeaways I am used to from other places are those to be described as late, borderline cold and not necessarily worth the money. But not the case when I was recommended the lovely Dragon Pearl restaurant by my dear granddaughter. The evening started with a pleasant welcome from the staff and owner, who assisted to our table at every request. The food was splendid as I ordered the delicious seafood in the salt and pepper dressing, followed by the flavourful Singapore chow mein and a side dish of mini veggie spring rolls. Overall, I would highly recommend this local Chinese restaurant and definitely be coming by again!!
