Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are split, with several praising sweet and sour pork, egg fried rice, and Singapore rice noodles as generous, well priced, and quick, and others calling the same style of dish disappointing. One diner found sweet and sour chicken tasting of vinegar, though the egg fried rice and beef with black pepper at the same visit were good. Complaints recur around food seeming reheated rather than fresh, a curry and satay described as tasting bad and looking wrong in color, and one customer accusing the shop of charging for an unwanted plain rice alongside a pork curry order. A couple of reviewers call it consistently good with no bad meals over repeated visits, while others say they won't return after one poor experience, and one suggests the takeaway start packing chips, fried rice, and curry sauce together in the tray.

“Was confused with the negative reviews as we had a great experience we thought we would try it and the portions were so generous and prices good compared to other Chinese’s food was very yummy would definitely remember.”
- Luke Morton
“Very disappointed, bad food, to expensive. All I have to say. Don’t come here”
- Ella Leach
“My partner and I was recommended to come here but the food was truly awful. We ordered a curry dish which tasted bad, a satay dish which was orangey colour and reassemble nothing like a satay. The only thing good was the chilli salt wings. Unfortunately we won’t be returning.”
- Taylor Little
“Food was okay priced and was ready quickly, however that may be why everything tasted like it had been microwaved. I’m not usually picky with food but you could tell it was cooked the day before or earlier in the day before they opened and then just warmed up before giving it to customers. To add, I ordered on a Tuesday not long after they opened when it wasn’t busy so there was no need to re-heat or microwave the food. It should all be fresh”
- M Harrison
“Great local takeaway, have used on numerous occasions over the years, one of the few takeaways where we've never had a bad meal.”
