Sadly this is no longer a restaurant but just a take out place, but I still go there every week. There are no other chinese take-outs like this place. I used to go there when you could sit down for a meal, and I still go there now when my friends and family all unexpectly come round and I can't be bothered to cook. They are the first place to go to because not only is the food incredable but the service is super quick (even McDonalds don't serve food this quick when ordering for the same number of people. Fact!). Sometime when I just don't know what to chose they are rather helpful and make suggestions and even change some of the ingrediates to suit individual needs. Not many places to that. Thats why I find no other place in the whole of South Wales compares. If you want to treat yourself go to the Swallow you won't be disappointed :)
monster muncher!
The most impressive Chinese restaurant in Cardiff-I'm not just saying that, just ask any regular that goes there. I have lived in Cardiff for over 20 years, tried and tested all new and old Chinese restaurants that has come and gone within that time frame and I can honestly put my hand on my heart and say there isn't/hasn't been another Chinese that comes close to this place. The flavours are incredible, decor is understated (which makes a refreshing change from all the often over indulged new places), each dish ordered to consistently tasty (no bland food served here), service is fast and friendly and the price is even better. I almost regret writing this as the Swallow is my, and Cardiff's best kept secret.
