Absolutely lovely experience. Very good food and friendly servers. The silk route feast is very worth it, being able to try so many things! Definitely exceeded my expectations :) We were sat at a lower bench table which may be a bit difficult for people with limited mobility. I would recommend calling ahead and requesting a normal height table if this would be an issue for your group.
