Customer Review Summary
Chicken balls lead the praise, with one diner calling them perfectly round, crispy and fluffy, and others pointing to the chow mein, the mixed hors d'oeuvres and a hot and sour soup described as one of the best they have had. Reviewers repeatedly mention big portions, friendly owners and food arriving piping hot, and one vegetarian customer says tofu in black bean sauce was made off the menu and prawn crackers were thrown in free. The duck in black bean also gets credit for being full of meat. Complaints are split between food and surroundings. One reviewer found the beef uncooked, the food bland and the sweet and sour chicken short on meat, and another found the special fried rice a bit dry. A reviewer who otherwise liked the food dislikes the entrance area, describing a distinct smell and clutter like a car boot sale. One reviewer reports finding three long black hairs in an order, then being told by the boss on the phone that they complain too much and should not come back.

“We ordered here on a Saturday, and the service was excellent. Their vegetarian selection on the menu is great, and they are happy to modify them as requested. We asked if we could get tofu in black bean sauce as it's not on the menu and they were only happy to do so. The portion sizes are good, and the price is very reasonable. They even threw in a bag of free prawn crackers! Would definitely recommend if you've not tried yet.”

“Food was very bland to say the least. Beef was uncooked. Not enough meat in the sweet & sour chicken either. Why charge the full price if you ain't going to provide the same quality?”

“The BEST Chinese takeaway in Aylesbury, in fact the best we have ever had I think! We used to drive 45 minutes away for a Chinese, so happy we don’t have to any more. The flavours are sensational! Thank you King Do!”
