Great experience. Lovely food- not oily at all. Good range of menu to pick from. Host offered us new year gifts and educated us on the Chinese culture and reasons as to why they share oranges with customers, symbolising wealth and prosperity. I?ll be coming back!

I booked tonight for my son?s Birthday, we were all looking forward to the eat as much as you like menu although we are not really big eaters.. be warned it?s not eat as much as you like?It?s 5 starters between 3 people with one small dipping sauce and if you?re like us, we like sauces with our food otherwise it?s chokey.The rushing us part was horribleThey weren?t doing this to the larger tables and my advice is, if you?re a small party don?t go there as they cannot wait to get rid of you will never go there again, food not that nice, poor selection for vegetarians and basically could not wait for us to pay and leave.Also expensive for what we had as we left still hungry .. but a bit sick as you can taste the grease in a lot of their fried dishes?Basically there are many better restaurants in Hitchin and because this is established a long time means nothing, people get complacent and arrogant and this business I feel is like this.Vegetarian options: Hardly any

So disappointing. Been going for years but has definitely gone downhill. Food portions smaller and more expensive. Service shocking. Waiting staff are rude and rush you. One said they were tired and needed to go home early. Another kept listening in on our conversation and looking at our phones when we were showing things to each other. When our bill came they didn't add it up or itemise it and couldnt total it up at all at the end and kept asking me to use my calculator to work it out even though I told them how much to take at the beginning.

Although they say they're open to 11pm, they were unable to accept a booking for 9pm stating that it was too late. Won't be trying them again ?

Our go to destination every time we are in Hitchin. Make sure to book in advance for the weekend as they are normally queues out the door. The food is fabulous and we never go home hungry. I have to recommend the all you can eat menu as it does what it says on the tin.

After reading such positive reviews, we were disappointed with the food at Regent Cottage. Whilst the service was great, the overall quality of the food was not good. The starters we all deep fried and tasted like the oil hadn't been changed for some time. The special fried rice was bland, and the prawns tasted off. The chow mein was very oil. The duck pancakes and chicken in black bean sauce, however, were pretty good.

Visited here with my wife and two young children on Wednesday 27th Sept. Walking in it looks nice and clean. We ordered off the a la carte menu instead of the all you can eat menu.First thing we noticed is how small the round tables are for 4 people.Secondly the restaurant isn't really geared towards families with children, we had to ask for forks as chopsticks and serving spoons were only provided. When you see children enter your restaurant you would quickly replace eating utensils for some that the children can use, I shouldn't have to ask as its common sense.The food was quick to arrive and tasty, portion sizes were reasonable, not huge, not small. The price however was expensive for what you get. I was hoping for something above Chinese takeaway quality. Don't get me wrong it was lovely food just not worth the price you pay.We won't be going back despite it being fully booked by the time we left. We could get equally tasty food from our regular Chinese takeaway.

All you can eat buffet without the physical buffet. Order what you want and they keep it coming for a fixed

I held my daughter's 100 days celebration and the manager Shirley was amazing. Great coms and lovely extra touches (such as closing the restaurant just for my party and giving extra candles). She was very accommodating to our needs and the staff and service was very good. Food was delicious and my guest and I all left happy and with very full bellies. Will definitely be coming back.
