Customer Review Summary
Pancake rolls come up as the standout here, with one longtime customer describing two huge ones per portion and calling the food unbeatable on price. Close behind, the special curry chips draw praise for being done well done as requested, arriving red hot despite a slow delivery, and fried rice and curry sauce get separate mentions as reliably good. Staff are repeatedly called friendly across several reviews. But a real split shows up in quality consistency: multiple diners report undercooked items, including soft noodles, doughy sweet and sour chicken balls, and undercooked spring rolls, plus dry, hard bbq spare ribs and one account of stale-tasting rice on repeat orders. One long-time customer also describes portion sizes shrinking, receiving small ribs in a small carton after years of getting the large portion, and says a complaint call didn't resolve it. Reviewers are otherwise divided between years-long loyalty and recent disappointment over greasy, tasteless dishes.

“Ordered here a few times prices reasonable, staff very nice, food mostly good but I have to be honest on a few occasions the rice has an strong old stale taste, not all the time but has happened a few which then makes you question the freshness of everything.,”
- Charlotte Howarth
“This place is amazing! We live in Leeds but always drive over for the best Chinese! We have been coming here for years (husband came years before we met). Food is always top notch and I don't think anyone can beat their prices! The pancake rolls are bigger than my hand!! You get two huge ones in a portion!”
- Steven Garner
