Customer Review Summary
Salt and pepper dishes stand out, with one reviewer singling out the prawns and even a critical diner calling the chicken wings the one good item, crunchy and full of flavour. Close behind is a special chow mein that one regular recommends, along with food described as fresh, hot on arrival and generous in portion, and one reviewer prefers the vegetables to those at similar places. Several mention good value for money and friendly staff, and one praises the phone service. The delivery driver comes up repeatedly as friendly, considerate and clear in communication. The main complaint comes from a single critical review: the egg fried rice was very dry, pale and short on flavour, and the plain chow mein had an odd, almost bitter taste, though the portions were still large. Another reviewer says one visit turned into ordering every other day because the food is always fresh. One diner adds that the driver handed over some free extras, which they called generous.

“So I ordered my meals from Uber eats & it was hard to find a good Chinese because I hadn't had Chinese for 10 years, I want to make sure that I enjoy the food. I came across this restaurant & I decided to give it a shot & the meals didn't disappoint. Great portions & Great food. Perfect temperature. I accidentally submit on Uber eats without leaving a review. The Delivery driver communicated perfectly.”
