Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly single out generous portions and good value, with the special fried rice, ribs, house special chow mein, and duck fried rice drawing particular praise, alongside a quarter duck with pancakes and mixed hors d'oeuvres from one detailed order. The hot and sour soup and sweet and sour chicken also get a mention. Staff are consistently described as friendly and welcoming, and service is repeatedly called quick. One reviewer notes payment is cash only, with no cards accepted. A minority experienced a letdown: one review found portions small for the price on a Sunday order that arrived without prawn crackers, and felt it fell short of other Chinese takeaways they'd tried. Another reviewer's meal was mixed, praising the chow mein and duck fried rice but not elaborating further. Overall the recurring thread is affordable, generously portioned takeaway food paired with a friendly, speedy counter experience.

“One of the best Chinese take aways I've ever had, the special fried rice and ribs are fantastic, the staff are so friendly and helpful, and it's only down the road. If I had one question, it would be why they don't take debit/ credit cards in this day and age. Cash only I'm afraid”
