Took my parents to AKA for lunch, was fairly quiet and this was great as we had a good choice of tables and lots of attention from the lovely and attentive staff. We shared some small plates for starters and other dishes for mains. Everything was perfect and great value for money. We really enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back. A special mention must go to our lovely waitress Priskila, she was so polite, gently and very friendly indeed - such a pleasure to meet her. We had a lovely chat and we’ll definitely be looking out for her when we come again.

8 of us celebrated a birthday. The staff couldn't do enough for us and even presented the birthday girl with a card and wrapped flower. The service was impeccable and the food delicious. Will definitely be returning.

Lovely restaurant located in the old Spread Eagle Hotel. Listed building, looks a little run down on the outside but don't let that put you off. They serve a good selection of Asian dishes, which are beautifully cooked, elegantly served and delicious to eat. Service is exemplary, led by the manager Kenny who is an absolute legend. He will host you and look after you. Customer service is first class and the ambience is relaxed. If you like good Asian food served well, this is the place to go. On street parking nearby.

Myself and my partner popped in to this lovely place for a quick bite before an appointment. We were quite short for time, but when we explained this to the lovely staff the order was taken immediately, and food was served in a matter of minutes. It gave us enough time to really enjoy the food we had ordered, and make our appointment on time. The food quality was fantastic...and their signature cocktails, so delicious. We are not local to Witham, but have both agreed that this is going to be our new date night spot!!!

Usually I have the take away which is the best Chinese locally but decided to eat in for father's day. Got to say I'm impressed. Interior is simple but tastefully decorated. Staff are super helpful and attentive. The food was great -really tasty and fresh without the MSG bloat. We don't have allergies but I overheard a conversation with another table and the waitress was very attentive. If you don't eat all your food then they offer to box it up for you without even asking. Some really nice touches like the giant teddy bear ice cubes for my kid and the rose shaped ice cubes in adult drinks. Overall great food and value for money.
