    Valentines treat for me and my lovely wife. Spoilt and looked after as we entered. Glass of Prosecco and a red rose for my wife and then a fabulous meal.

    Have been eating in Lian’s for the past 40 years, although this was the first time in ages as we don’t live in the area anymore. It has never disappointed and the food was as delicious as ever!

    Really enjoyed our meal, would recommend a visit. if you are looking something different form the "run-of-the mill" Chinese restaurants, then this is the place

    Been here a few years back & food was exceptional but found it very poor this time. Staff were very attentive & provided a great service. Disappointed & hefty bill at the end.

    The only complaint would be the noise level. It was particularly bad that Saturday. The tables are very close together and too many clients don’t respect fellow diners. This is not the fault of the restaurant.
