Well, what an experience! Whilst we were surprised all the staff were young English girls, something seldom seen in my experience in Chinese restaurants. The food was of a reasonable quality. However, after finishing our meal one girl came and half cleared our table, we expected her to return for the rest of the rice dishes and plates but no, she and another member of staff came out of the kitchen with plates of food and believe it or not (we couldn’t) they sat on the table next to us and started eating their food. Our table remained half cleared whilst they sat eating and chatting not a yard away from us. I may be wrong but I think this was totally wrong and unprofessional and we paid and left and will not return. Why management would allow this to happen at 8.45pm I have no idea but we will not be visiting again which is a shame as food was not bad.

Staff friendly and helpful. Food wasn't what I expected although this could be personal preference.

Had a great take-away Nov 2021. Read a few bad reviews prior to ordering so was a little apprehensive. They have an extensive menu and the food tasted lovely 😋😋

This is our very favourite Chinese Restaurant in the whole High Peak Area. Go very, very hungry. We always choose from the banquet menu. Everything cooked fresh for each order. Such helpful, freindly service, I look forward to our next visit.

What a great find! We had a really great meal here. The service was very friendly and helpful. The food tasted fresh and tasty! We had such a pleasant evening here. When we come back to Buxton we will return.

Honestly the worst run restaurant I've ever visited.disappointing as the food was OK. Waited twenty minutes to order, the starter arrived before any drinks. Good start. The mixed starter they brought wasn't the one on their menu, three things missing and one on the plate that wasn't on the menu. Things didn't improve.

I wouldn't give this 'restaruant' one star. Unfortunately, all the good restaraunts are closed in Buxton on a Monday and the others fully booked. Bad from start to finish. Seated for half an hour and had to ask for someone to take our order. Set meal B. This came out nothing like the starter on the menu. I had to go to the bar to ask where our drinks were, food and no drinks. Just happened to look at the menu, and our starter resembled nothing to what we actually ordered. We sent it back hearing a big argument from the kitchen. We were then brought out two of the missing items, but no spring rolls and no plates. Next the duck course and again no plates. Lots of apologies, but this is no way to run a 'restaurant'. We asked for the bill had to pay more as no change. Guess what, they kept the change, bloody cheek, you have to earn a tip, really!!! . We asked for our change, the only tip I can give is vastly improve your front of house. Not impressed.

Kwei Lin is exactly what you'd expect from a Chinese restaurant. A great selection of dishes, good vegan and vegetarian options and tasty food.The only reason we gave it four stars was because it is exactly what you'd expect. The interiors could do with a bit of sprucing up and the menus could do with replacing too.The staff were really friendly and knowledgeable, they were also very busy when we got there, which is always a good sign! Oh and it's also the only place I've had salt and pepper chips that were saucy. But they were tasty!

Quite tasty. We took ours away. We were on holiday from the Midlands and the food tasted quite different from any chinese restaurant near to us at home. The dishes were much sweeter. I enjoyed the sweet and sour chicken. But my girlfriend was slightly disappointed at the beef curry. It just didn't taste like we are used too. I would recommend but bear in mind it was quite different from what we were used too.
