Customer Review Summary
Satay is the draw reviewers raise most, with one describing it as filled with meat and another praising the satay chicken skewers. Close behind are the BBQ pork and chicken rice, called tasty and meaty, plus pork Yuk Sung, sweet and sour chicken and large chips. Several call the food lovely and full of flavour, and some say they switched from other local takeaways that had gone downhill. Staff are described as lovely by some and as surly and unfriendly by one. The main complaint follows a change of ownership. A longtime customer finds the chicken fried rice bland, another calls the fried rice and spare ribs tasteless with no peas or spring onion, and a third says the food was basic and ended up in the bin. One delivery order arrived well past the quoted window, the restaurant admitted it had taken too many orders, and cancellation came only after an argument. One regular says the shop is often closed early despite its listed hours, so they phone ahead and still end up ordering elsewhere.

“Used here for first time today, staff very nice and pleasant, food was amazing, will now be travelling from Moseley village as the Chinese there has gone downhill”

“Had a yummy takeaway last night. Food was spot on and delivered within 30-45 minutes. They have become my favourite Chinese. 10 out of 10 🤤”

“We starting using this take away as others in the area are not great. We have found the staff to be surly and unfriendly. However the Food is lovely and tasty, easily the best in the area, but that's if you are lucky enough to find them open. Website states they are open Tuesday to Sunday 4pm to 10pm. However we have tried many times at different times to order a takeaway only to find them closed. I can understand that if they haven't had many customers in they might decide to close early, but 7pm on a Thurday? It is pointless planning to get a meal from here and looking forward to it as they probably won't be open. Luckily we always phone ahead or we would have had many wasted journeys. I also wonder how fresh their ingredients are due to them always bring closed. It is a shame because the food is good, but we always end up having to go to Yaos instead. I am sure they must be losing many customers because people will just go elsewhere”

“I started using this takeaway recently as my previous regular had gone downhill. The food here is absolutely fantastic - have only tried a few menu items so far but each has been well cooked and full of flavour. I have ordered by phone each time and collected and the order has been ready to collect within 10-15 minutes. The staff are absolutely lovely too. I will definitely be coming back!”
- Lily Higgins
