They claim to be the best Chinese in Liverpool - very bold. Unfortunately I didn't try another Chinese....but this wasn't the best.
Me and my Mrs chanced jumping in without a booking - we were happy they got us a seat but made it seem like they tried very hard....when there there only around 8tables full and remained that way until we left 90mins later.
Service - waited awhile to order our food/drinks. The empty starter plates sat on the table for over 15mins. Nobody asked how the food was. We asked for the bill and 5mins later we asked someone else for the bill as the person we asked was just standing around at the tills. There were 4 waiters. Poor service.
Food - prawn crackers - free portion which is nice and they were lovely. Chicken noodle soup - lots of noodles, decent amount of chicken and some sort of cabbage but it was bland, almost like it was just hot water. They asked for soy sauce - which I suggest you say yes to. Chicken curry - very good portion. Fried rice was very white and the sauce had a small flavour to it but was very thin. Slightly bland. Chicken fried rice - again, very white rice. Chicken was white, similar to the pre packed chicken from a supermarket but heated up and some peas thrown in - again bland. Good portion. Chips - decent portion, chunky chips, cooked well.
Approx £46 for 2 soups, 2mains and 2 cokes. Honestly, it was extremely average.
Tbh, it looked like a nice place but never lived up to it's own claim coz if this is the best - I feel sorry for Liverpool...
Read moreNormally have a few favourite Chinese restaurants in town but unfortunately they were closed this evening. Thought we would give Chy a try 😁. Well what a pleasant suprise food was excellent and I'm not easily pleased. Great looking venue spotlessly clean throughout tables, bar area, floors and toilets gleaming. Barry was our waiter and what a pro he knows everything about he menu and drinks had great patience with the elderly people on our party. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff they all said hello and fill of smiles made us feel right at home. Price of our meals was just right not over priced and not too cheap but the food exceeded the price structure. Could easily compete with other well known Liverpool Chinese restaurants but for some reason seems to be under the radar a little. Especially when the decent ones are normally jam packed with customers. Great experience I would deffo recommend and revisit well done.
O didn't have any phone battery to take an pics of the food but it looked as good as it tasted

Read moreLovely place. Never ate in the city, night and day difference between my locals and somewhere like this but the price difference isn't too insane.
We visited as a group of 3, ordered way too much food (and were advised, this is probably too much) but had it anyway.
We took it home and had it the next day as a second dinner, was just as delicious.
Staff were friendly and extremely professional (don't take this as the person being cold).
We were checked on a couple of times to ensure we were satisfied with our meals, and I felt comfortable enough to say if I was unhappy with anything but to be honest it was all delicious.
Thank you for a great service and the chefs for a wonderful meal.
Make sure to book ahead of time (even if same day), it fills up fast and you may not get a table, or may be waiting if you turn up...
