Customer Review Summary
Curry splits opinion most. One regular calls the special curry the reason they use it constantly, and another found the beef curry good, but a third received a curry that looked like tomato soup and had no taste. Fried rice fares worse, described as bland and unseasoned, though one reviewer rated the rice very good. Several report flavourless noodles, greasy chicken, doughy chicken balls, and a hot and sour soup that tasted only of vinegar. Counter staff are called friendly and helpful, and a couple of reviewers say the food arrives without a long wait, yet one reviewer reports feeling ill after two dishes. One diner's delivery arrived cold with soggy chips, and another describes drivers shouting in the customer area. Wrong orders recur, with calls going unanswered or ending in a refusal to fix the mistake, including a collection where the main dish was missing after the drive home to Tamworth.

“If I could give a minus I would. Worst chinease I’ve ever had. 2 of the dishes tasted vile I spat it straight out. I don’t know if it was left out or it had fermented or what but it made me ill. This was my first time ordering from here. They also got the order wrong and we got 2 random dishes. When we called it just kept being busy.”

“Ordered over the phone for collection, confirmed with the women over three times for my order as she kept getting it wrong. She seemed impatient and no properly listening. Went and collected the food…drove all the way home to Tamworth and order was wrong and the main thing I wanted was missing so so annoyed. Terrible customer service”

“Ordered using Uber eats, had curry rice and chips, the curry was very odd, looked like Tomatoe soup, strange colour for a Chinese curry and no taste. However the rice was very good. Don’t think I will have a curry from here again unless they the curry improves”
