Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Guests rave about the generous portions and the jaw-droppingly low prices, which make dining here a pleasure without breaking the bank.

The cozy decor enhances the dining experience, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Food quality consistently receives high praise, with reviews noting the freshness of every dish. The special dim sum platter and Korean fried chicken ramen also stand out, leaving diners satisfied.

Most Disliked
Despite its many strengths, some diners note long wait times, particularly during peak hours like Saturday afternoons when the restaurant sees 100% capacity. This can lead to a cramped feeling and occasional delays in service. Additionally, while most patrons appreciate the diverse menu, a few have expressed a desire for a more extensive selection of vegetarian options. Some may also find the atmosphere slightly noisy at peak times, which could detract from a tranquil dining experience.
Parking in the vicinity can also pose a challenge, as the only available options are paid parking lots nearby. Hence, planning ahead or arriving via public transport might be wise, especially during weekends.

Most authentic and delicious Asian food I’ve ever tried! We currently live in London and have tried many Asian restaurants but none are on a level with this one. Staff were super helpful in helping us decide and food was excellent quality and very fresh.

Really great food with large portions and low prices. Spent around £45 for two starters, mains and beers. Have been multiple times and always left happy and full.

Review for No.12, Swansea No.12 is a small but charming Chinese restaurant in Swansea that offers a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. The decor is beautifully done, making it a warm and inviting place to dine. The menu has plenty of choices, catering to different tastes. We opted for the Korean rib, Singapore vermicelli chicken noodles, dim sum platter, and satay skewers. The standout dishes were definitely the rib and the noodles—both packed with flavour and cooked to perfection. Perfectly finished by mochi balls, ice cream and mango pomelo sago delicious 🤤 Service was impressively quick, and the overall experience was excellent. If you're looking for great food in a lovely setting, No.12 is highly recommended!

The food was delicious. We ordered the pot rice roll with beef brisket as it’s not common in other Cantonese restaurant and it turned out really good. 10/10 for the service. Will definitely come back again!

We stopped in at 6pm on a Saturday night without a reservation and they were just able to squeeze us in so reservations are definitely recommended. They have a wide selection of vegetarian options across their menu which was great. We tried the fried dough cheung fun and the mushroom noodle special and both were super delicious. The portions on the cheung fun are more than enough for two to share. I also tried the xialongbao which was pretty tasty. The chicken fried rice was fresh and delicious. The blueberry margarita was super delicious as was the orange and strawberry tea. All in all we had a great meal! You can pay on card but they prefer tips by cash.
