Customer Review Summary
Reviewers mostly return for big, hot portions and flavoursome food, with the chicken fried rice and its huge chicken slices singled out, followed closely by the chicken chow mein, spring rolls and Thai dishes. Several describe the takeaway as freshly cooked and not watered down or bland, and the complimentary prawn crackers and fortune cookies get a mention. Counter and delivery staff are called friendly, polite and pleasant, and one reviewer calls the takeaway clean. Delivery is described as reasonable by one diner, though the complaints are specific. One reviewer found the chicken raw in a Thai green chicken curry, and another says a meal tasted frozen, then defrosted and microwaved. A third reports a 6pm delivery order cancelled at 7.40 because the kitchen was too busy, and one pickup arrived about ten minutes after the quoted time. Even so, the complimentary prawn crackers and fortune cookies are what one first-time customer says made the collected meal perfect.

“1st time using The Lucky House, but won't be the last.. we collected this time but will try the delivery service next time. the food was lovely, good size portions, very tasty and hot, just what you need when you fancy a night off after a hard day, lady behind counter was friendly and polite and the aroma wafting from the kitchen was a delight and promise of what was to come. the complementary prawn crackers and fortune cookies made it Just PERFECT . Thank you 10 out of 10”

“It was the most discusting take away we have had . Like it had been frozen then defrosted before microwaving and deliverin! This was not cheap but it all went into the dustbin! Never again from this plsce”

“We normally get our Chinese elsewhere in town but they were closed, looking at the most recent reviews wasn't sure whether to risk, but we did. Big portions, hot and delicious. The chicken fried rice had huge chicken slices in. Delivery was half an hour which is very reasonable.”

“Ordered a takeaway from here monday night, lovely lady at the desk, told to pick up food at 8:20, however didn’t get our food till just over half past, but we weren’t in a rush so this didn’t bother us! we received our food which was still hot and went back home. Me and my partner found the spring rolls and chicken chow mein very flavourful and would definitely recommend, however upon opening up my thai green chicken curry, unfortunetly the chicken was raw. I find this unacceptable and a real let down since the rest of the food was really nice. This was my partners first chinese takeaway experience and it’s safe to say this has definitely put him off a bit. Maybe will give this a miss for a while, hopefully this can be improved for future visits.”

“We ordered for delivery at 6pm, they called at 7.40 to cancel our order because they were to busy. BE WARNED.”
