Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the salt and chilli chicken and the chicken fried rice, with sauce of choice on top, and many call it the best Chinese takeaway in Antrim. Close behind are the portion sizes, which several describe as massive or good, along with satay sticks and spring rolls. Customers of many years say the food is consistent and that the owner and staff are friendly and willing to cook orders to taste. One parent says the kitchen has always accommodated two children with special needs who are selective eaters. The complaints are specific and recur in the food itself. One reviewer got salt and chilli dishes with only chillies in the box and none cooked into the chicken. Another found the noodle soup and roast duck too salty to eat, and another called the smoked chicken bland and soggy, with the wrong sauce sent. A delivery quoted at 30 to 35 minutes reportedly took over an hour. One diner found a hair in ham fried rice and received a replacement along with chicken balls, then found another hair in the leftovers the next day.

“Unfortunately the food was awful. We ordered a very small order of smoked chicken, noodles and sauce. The wrong sauce was sent and the smoked chicken was extremely bland and tasteless. It looked like a portion of potato wedges and was very soggy. Unfortunately would not order again.”

“Excellent menu. Great service. I love the portion size. Food is good quality. You don't wait forever on a delivery.”
- James Fenton
“Food was so disappointing. We each got an item with salt and chilli and it literally just came with chilli’s in the box. Not used to cook the food with either. So basically ended up with chicken balls, crispy chicken and plain ribs. Please someone inform them that for salt and chilli chicken you need to cook the chicken in the salt and chilli. Mind blowing I know”
