Customer Review Summary
Reviews are split, with most negative. The salt and pepper chips draw praise from two reviewers, one calling the chicken balls huge. Others report a soggy salt and pepper chicken, a jelly-like chicken curry, and a Szechuan beef that was sweet, not spicy, and mostly batter. One says a prawn turned up in a box despite an allergy, and another reports a delivery taking an hour and a half.

“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.”

“I have to update my review, which previously wasn’t great over a year ago, because on a whim we ordered again and it was the best Chinese we’ve had in years. The ginger and spring onion sauce was so full of flavor, Kung pao chicken was also very nice, crispy seaweed was great and we got the mixed starter which was a lovely combo of starters, perfect for sharing between a couple people. When we had it in the past, we did also like the crispy aromatic duck flavor wise it was just a bit small, but I would def order that again as well!”
