We had to wait long for the food. Also the portions are crazy small for the price they charge. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL.

Small but very nice restaurant! Freshly prepared and very good food (there is therefore a bit of a wait). During our visit there was only one employee (or it was the boss herself). She was very friendly and tried hard!

Spring roll was burnt and definitely too small for 5chf, which also applies to the entire portions! Very dissatisfied with the food and a long wait. Tastes more aliexpress than thailand! Bubble tea was great!

Nothing was authentic!!! Me and my partner were looking forward to eating. The lady was constantly on the phone and not attentive. The tables were sticky, the ginger syrup smelled musty. Peking duck was just warmed up and absolutely not fresh, the sauce was not Chinese but simple barbecue sauce. The rice wasn't even freshly cooked and was dry. We paid just under 100 for two menus. That was absolutely disappointing. Never again!!!! Absolutely not recommended!!!!

Absolutely disgusting food Burnt and inedible and having the misplaced confidence charge money for it Prawn toast burnt to a crisp As you can see from the screenshot the review was sent at around 19:00 CET and not a day later as this individual asserted. The meal was absolutely disgusting not fresh and all concerned items were listed in the review. I understand this "restauranteur" would prefer not to have a bad reviews but it's much easier if you pay some attention to the quality of your food. I generally would not bother to write a review but this individual is arguing that items are not over cooked when it is plain to see it in the photo. And more importantly he thinks it's ok to charge over 100CHF for the order.

Unfortunately it took way too long - we had to wait for the main course for an hour. The menu looks great but the food looks totally different from the pictures. The fried rice with chicken was flavorless and the chicken satay didn’t taste like peanut or coconut milk at all, it was very watery. We expected more for this price.

I got 2 bubble teas here today with my wife. First we waited in line for 10 minutes without being greeted. When we asked after 10 minutes of standing in your shop waiting where the toilet was. The waitress replied: Toilet only for guests. There wasn't much going on. There were only 4 children there who ordered their fruit teas. It was a very unhygienic shop. Ladles are simply stored on the dusty table after scooping the sugar syrup. The whole buffet was sticky otherwise. Lemon slices that were in the children's tea fell to the floor and ended up in the cup anyway. Unfortunately, our milk teas were the worst we have ever had. There were 4 ice cubes in there and the lady filled the rest with tap water until the cup was full. A good 1.5 dl of tap water. A simple green tea with milk in any other cafe in Basel tastes better. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this store to anyone.

It clearly has too few staff. There is only one person serving and cooking at the same time. The map is too big for that. The waiting time was correspondingly long. The tables are not cleared for a long time, even if the guests have long left, which reinforces the impression of a lack of staff. There is chaos behind the counter, which is what you see when you go there to pay. The bubble tea was lukewarm and really didn't taste good unchilled. The food was ok, but not so much that you have to go through the rest again. Contrary to other reviews, the service was friendly.

I had a drink with 4 other people in the restaurant on Sunday, November 13th, 2022. We were greeted rudely and stressed. No, it didn't have much clientele. We sat down and were given the menu, even though we only wanted a quick drink. After the customers who arrived later were served first, it was our turn after around 10 minutes. After ordering, the employee told us very angrily that it was only for eating and that the drinks had to be taken away. We still got the drinks and the spring roll we ordered. Now another 10 minutes passed until we got 5 drinks and a spring roll. The bubble drinks 🥤 came and we tried them. Apart from the price of CHF 7.- the cup of 2.5 dl, it was nothing special. A matter of taste. The cups, even though we were indoors, came in sealed plastic cups. In summary, it was neither friendly, not tasty and on top of that, nor expensive.

Unfortunately disappointing, although it looked promising from the map. Mapo Tofu looked completely different and wasn't authentic, not silken tofu and not Sichuan pepper. What was listed on the menu as fried baozi was more like fried xiaolongbao (i.e., three times as small). Service was inattentive and disinterested. Prices were expensive, in keeping with Basel's city center standards.
