Customer Review Summary
Salted chilli chips are the most repeated draw at this Shankill Road takeaway, with one reviewer calling them the nicest in a long time and another pairing them with mixed seafood in garlic butter and cream sauce. Garlic butter chips also earn praise. Close behind are the prawn curry and mix meat soft noodles with curry, and several reviewers call the food fresh and tasty. The all in one boxes and bundled main meals with sides are called brilliant offers, and counter staff are described as very nice. The complaints centre on cost and the phone. One reviewer says prices keep rising for extremely average Chinese food, citing a tub of dipping sauce and a kids meal, and compares delivered kids meals with a KFC family bucket. Another says the phone was answered but the caller got no hello and was ignored.
