Visited for a sit in meal which was our first taste from this restaurant. We shared a set meal for two. All food was piping hot and tasty! We asked for extra prawn crackers for our very keen 2 year old, which was not a problem. We all throughly enjoyed our meals and will return. Note for anyone with little ones they don’t have high chairs to offer.

The whole place needs a proper clean. Everything sticky and the toilets are gross. I see their food hygiene rating is 2/5 so I expect the kitchens aren’t much better. That being said the food was tasty and service good. Went for the Sunday buffet which at £24.50 was very expensive. Children under 1.4m (about 10 years old) tall pay half price. Overall not really with the cost and there are better (and cleaner) alternatives in the area.

Absolutely disgusted. This restaurant is expensive, and portions are on the small side. I ordered a takeaway of chicken with cashew nuts and vegetables with cashew nuts. Guess what I found in the vegetable one? Yes, you got it; CHICKEN! I couldn’t eat my expensive main course, and can not trust Parasol to be honest or have an ounce of integrity. If they had an email I would have challenged them, but they do not. They also did not pick up the phone on the three occasions I tried to call them. If you value honesty and dislike rubbery tinned mushrooms, avoid at all costs!

Went there on a whim thinking we will get some good chinese food. Keep in mind we are used to asian food and have visited countless Chinese restaurants all over the world.
This was honestly the worst restaurant i ever visited. The service was mid but not that bad considering our waiter looked tired. The food however was absolutely horrendous. Let me break it down:
1. We started with the Tom Yum soup. When it came there was soup all over the side of the bowl and on the coaster below the bowl, already not a good sign. The soup was tastewise too bland but not bad. However they put not fully ripened tomatoes in it with their insides completely green which really gave the appearance that the tomatoes were moldy inside, which was absolutely off putting for me. I was really expecting a good, comfy and visually appealing Tom Yum soup and was really disappointed.
2. We ordered the Szechuan style chicken. Szechaun style food is my absolute favourite cooking style and I always try to visit a Szechaun restaurant whenever i am traveling, that is to say i love it and was pleasantly surprised to see Szechaun style chicken on the menu. The chicken was horrible, tasted gamey and was not Szechaun style at all, and for the sauce, as hard as we tried we couldnt find the usual and expected Szechuan pepper taste or the hotness usually associated with Szechuan cooking. It was more like a soya sauce even a bit sweet. Horrible! We couldnt have more than a bite.
3. We ordered some spicy squid which was the best of the bunch, the seasoning was great and full of umami flavour and the fried chillies were good, however the squid were extremely greasy. Oil was pouring out of it whenever i had a bite which left an unpleasant mouth feel, I could only have some bite before feeling the oil was too much for me.
Overall the worst restaurant i ever visited in my life and i think the first time i left a restaurant with most dishes barely touched and the eery feeling i lost my time and money and wishing my darnest i went somewhere else instead

Thoroughly enjoyed my meal here, very good beautiful Char Sui pork(let down very slightly as the pineapple in the sauce didn’t taste quite right)
Noodles were well seasoned and had a lovely balanced taste, bean sprouts and a nice seasoning of spring onion.
Stir fried vegetables, again not overpowered with seasoning.
The portions are generous and I came away satisfied.
Service was like clockwork, attentive and lighting fast.
I’ve given 5 stars with the caveat that I’d have given maybe 4.8 if I could as the experience was almost perfect let down only by the pineapple.

We visited on a Saturday evening and were glad we’d booked in advance, as they had around 70%-80% of their tables in use. Even so, service was prompt without being rushed; we asked for a break between starter and main courses and they were happy to oblige. Food was piping hot and tasted good, especially the spicy mustard chicken, which didn’t taste particularly mustardy but was very nice.

Thought we try this place with only visiting for a few days, we didn’t book and got a table but the woman who was at the door didn’t seem to be impressed or wanted to be there! The food came out very quick but wow it was so tasty,hot!
Asked to take what was left home and had to box it up ourselves that I’ve never done before
If I was ever around there agin I would go back just because the food was so nice!

More meat in a pot noodle
I ordered Singapore chowmain, curry sauce and spring rolls!
A small bottle of beer whilst I waited, the food was out before I was half way through the beer
The ordeal cost me over £20 there were around 3 small prawns and half a sliver of chicken it was mostly bland noodles and watery curry sauce
I used to love this place 5 years ago, wish I had got a pot noodle from teco now
