Customer Review Summary
Reviews split sharply. Several describe disappointment: a munch box arrived reheated and tough with an unexpected prawn despite a stated allergy, and a chicken curry likened to jelly alongside soggy salt and pepper chicken and a spring roll holding mostly bean sprouts, plus delivery taking an hour and a half. One reviewer instead praises the salt and pepper chips and generous chicken balls as the best encountered.

“Not a very clean place and the food was not good. I've never being served a fried rice like that. Boiled rice with essentially gravy meat and veg on top. Watch uncle Roger for tips. I hoped it would have tasted nice, but it didn't. Binned the food and went somewhere else.”

“Absolute garbage, munch box tasted reheated everthing cooked to death and tough and couldn't tell if it was chicken pork or beef . Was eating. The single Spare rib had been battered and the was a random prawn which my wife is allergic to. A shame as the box was packed but most went in the bin. The dog though it was ok though.”

“Salt and garlic chips were good. Sezchuan beef was far too incredibly sweet and not spicy at all. More batter than beef too. It did look good though, just tasted terrible.”
- Leo Bell
“Chicken curry was like a carton of jelly and chicken, salt and pepper chicken was soggy, vegetable spring roll literally had only bean sprouts and chicken in it (no other vegetables) delivery took an hour and a half. Massively disappointed £38 spent on nothing.”
- Paul
“Fantastic food here, probably the best Chinese I've eaten at. Portion size were good, price very reasonable and quality food. Salt and pepper chips the best I've had. Chicken balls, huge! Dishes were very tasty. Recommended.”
