Hui Wei

I heard that this was a great Chinese restaurant from reviews with top ratings so thought of trying it out.
Me and 3 friends went to Hui Wei. I booked a table. Hui Wei is quite a large restaurant, there were quite a few tables but because we booked a table the friendly welcomer took us to one of there better tables, a rounded table.
Some people say it’s expensive but it’s in the City Centre where the rates are sky high. The restaurant itself looks great it has an authentic Chinese touch about it, it’s slick it looks expensive. They also have a piano inside and someone was playing on it.
I ordered a Duck with ginger and spring onion dish which was £9 + boiled rice £2. Most of the dishes are between £8-£11. The food didn’t take long at all for them to cook it, I reckon we waited 15 – 20 mins. The food was outstanding and we all gave our meals ¹⁰⁄₁₀. I can’t remember what my friends had but we all enjoyed it. The duck was cooked to perfection, I did think though that the pieces were slightly too big and because they don’t have knifes you have to cut it in half with your spoon or fork. You also can use traditional chop sticks. They don’t do chips, but when you taste of how the rice tastes you actually automatically go off the idea of having chips with the dish anyway, the rice was great tasting nice and fluffy, and again cooked to perfection.
The staff here are possibly without a doubt the most friendliest I have met, always smiling and all who we passed on our way out said thank you. I will definitely be coming back here. Great food, great people, great place to eat in.

I was really looking forward to my meal here. It was my aunt that booked this meal for my Nans 70^th. I don’t live in Sheffield any more so did a quick Unilocal as to whether this place was any good. I was excited.
The entrance is shared with an Indian next door on the corner if you’re struggling to find it!
The décor and arrangement needs to be lifted out of the 90s. I did feel I’d walked onto the set of Only Fools I’ll be honest.
I think it’s pot luck with the waiters. Some were really pleasant happy and nice and others seemed like they’d rather be somewhere else anywhere else.
The menu is extensive and offers a very good selection. We opted for the oriental banquet which at £21 was a very good deal for what you get. We also ordered some Har Gau as well.
The duck and pancake rolls was lovely but for four people you didn’t get enough Hoi Sin Sauce. The starters were nice except for the ribs which were far too fatty.
The main meals of pork, sweet and sour cod, crispy king prawn, fried rice and stir fried vegetables was nice but the flavours didn’t blow me away. It wasn’t as morish as I’d imagined when I’d read the reviews.
It’s a nice place but it’s nowhere near enough for 5 stars. It’s A-​OK and I wouldn’t bemoan going again if everyone else wanted to.
