Zi's Cafe

Very friendly and lovely owners, they personally speak to you and ask how your meals are and even hold conversations with you if you like. Food has always been great as well as their prices!

Exceptional food, by far the best Chinese food I have tasted, a family favourite. We would not go anywhere else for Chinese cuisine. The food is authentic and the service fantastic. The dishes are light and tasty. The restaurant owner always has the utmost time for you. I would recommend sitting in as opposed to a takeaway for the full dining experience.

Ordered food from this restaurant. At first they were helpful with explaining if certain dishes had fish sauce on or not. When we collected the food and got home and began to eat we noticed what looked like a BIG clump of ‘hair’ in the food. It put us off our food immediately. I rang zis cafe and they explained they wanted to see the hair so they could find out if it was Asian or Western hair. I sent them a photo. They came to our house and was still convinced it was not hair but string. I explained either way it should not be in my food. After a lot of debate they said I could have half of my money back as we ‘consumed’ half of the food! I tried to explain that the half that was no longer in the cartons was now in fact in the bin and I was not prepared to go through my bin to collect rice and pieces of chicken, so they could take it back to the store. Terrible customer service! And hygiene.

For four years (and counting now), Zi’s has been my favourite Chinese place in the entirety of Cardiff (and then some!). A must try is their chicken with dried chilli and leeks. I love this place!!!

Best place for Chinese food in Cardiff.
In an unassuming part of the city popular with students.
Very large portions for the price and excellent food, some dishes that are on most Chinese menus and some specials I've only seen there.

Just finished a takeaway from there and by far the best Chinese food I’ve had. The chicken and beef were so tender. Flavours were massive. Would definitely reccomend!

I’d say hands down best Authentic Chinese food around.
Huge selection of dishes.
A particular favourite is the Chicken with leak and chilli, a must try.
Staff are always welcoming and friendly.
I travel about 15 miles for a takeaway, it’s that good.
I won’t go anywhere else.
If you haven’t eaten in or had a takeaway from here then your missing out.

Met an old friend. First time trying Japanese (I know ). Tasty vegetarian hot and sour soup- maybe too chilly for me. But lots of flavour, lovely and hot for this cold weather. First time having tofu!! Haha I loved it and completely finished the bowl! Then had deep fried aubergine dish which was amazing. I am so going to try to recreate this at home! With veg fried rice. They had lots of people ordering take away by the looks of it. Saw just eat and deliveroo drivers coming in and out. But apart from us no one else in the restaurant. But sat do see as the food was tasty. But fine for me and my friend to have a good catch up. Service was wonderful, we had jasmine tea, because we were there chatting so long the waitress came and refilled with hot water again - I mean it was just what was needed in the evening on a cold winter's day! I will definitely come again!
