Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split almost evenly on the food itself. Those who rate it highly describe fresh, tasty dishes that are not overcooked, with plenty of meat and prawns, generous portion sizes, and a large group order that went down well. Friendly, rapid service gets a mention, one reviewer was pleased when the staff threw in a little extra, and another says their Friday night orders have never been a poor meal. The negative reviews are just as direct. A few describe bland, tasteless, brown food, and two report food arriving cold, including freezing rice and chicken balls that were not warm. One calls the chips the worst they have tasted and says the oil needs changing regularly. Complaint handling draws criticism too. One reviewer says cold food was not put right, while another says the driver was sent back to collect the uneaten food, yet only half the order was refunded.

“Ordered from here 2 weeks ago, food was worse than bland. Horrible, just tasteless and brown. Rang to complain and she sent the driver back to collect the food we hadn't eaten then only issued a refund for half the food. Don't waste your money. Terrible and won't ever go back again 🤢.”
