HOISUM REVIEWS

A fantastic place. Great atmosphere and great food. The owners were wonderful and friendly. You could see they really cared about their customers and were happy to have a chat. The food was fresh and delicious. The prices were really reasonable. We will definitely be returning and telling as many people as we can to go there.

Recommend!! Lovely family owned restaurant and incredibly friendly! The food was quite good for a very very reasonable price and the wantons are specially made! Deep fried squid and Spring Rolls were great appetizers as well! The atmosphere is quite nice and friendly and the washroom is very clean.

Blink and you’ll walk passed the lane it’s on but it’s a treasure hunt that’s well worth pursuing! An absolute gem of a restaurant. Very warm and welcoming front of house, you’ll have a great time enjoying the delicious food and atmosphere in this cozy place. It gets busy, so book in advance!

MR. HAU'S ORIENTAL EXPRESS REVIEWS

Nice experience. My friend and I we really did enjoyed our meals here in this rainy December day. Very nice staff. The food is really tasty. We've got chicken and chinese mushrooms soup, chicken noodles soup, fried egg rice with sweat and sour pork, fried egg rice with sweat and sour chicken, and extra chicken fried noodles ...absolutely yummy! Perfect dish, perfect taste. Dessert: toffee apple and toffee banana.

On a visit to Eastbourne, found this lovely little Chinese, seated straight away , went for the two course £9.99 menu, good size portions, had the chicken satay which was lovely , then the pork noodles which came out lovely and fresh and hot . Very clean restaurants , toilets were downstairs. Very good service , food was definitely five stars . Would definitely recommend.

We discovered Mr Hau's a few years ago on a trip to Eastbourne and now it is our go to place whenever we are near. Currently staying in Hastings, but we just had to make the journey over. Exceptional food, great service and nice surroundings.

BUFFET TIME REVIEWS

£20 to eat as much as you want is a steal! Good quality food and plenty of food choices. I'm impressed they offer desserts which is unusual for a self service chinese buffet restaurant.

First time here with my 6 year old daughter, and it was fantastic, very friendly staff and great food.

Visited on a Sunday afternoon and despite it being quiet at 1st the food was constantly being kept topped up and was hot (where applicable) and fresh. Hot and sour soup was lovely despite a heatwave outside!!
