Came here for dinner in April 2011. We didn't have a booking but there was no wait for a table.

Overall the service was good, our waiter spoke next to no English but he was patient with us and there were no problems.

We ordered two dishes to start and the house specialty crab.

* The deep fried fish and corn wasn't what we were expecting based on the menu description, but was actually reasonably tasty, though a few spoonfuls were enough as it got a bit heavy.

* The lemon chicken was terrible, overpowered by harsh lemon flavour.

* The typhoon shelter style crab dish was definitely the star, good quality and fresh crab under a pile of garlic, chilli and scallions - the topping was tasty on it's own and combined with the crab it was excellent (and surprisingly the topping wasn't too overpowering). There are 5 spice levels that can be ordered, we ordered the medium spicy level (3) and it was a good balance at that point for my tastes.

I would go back, either just for the crab or after having done more research on better side dishes to order.
