Customer Review Summary
Praise is scattered. One reviewer describes chicken fillets in curry sauce over rice in big round tubs, another singles out the spring rolls as the only good item, and a third notes food ready to collect in no time. Staff and delivery drivers are called excellent and helpful. Most reviews are critical, though, and several long-time customers say standards have slipped, with one suspecting new owners. Ribs are the most repeated complaint, described as rock hard and bone dry in a reheated starter box, tiny, or tough and chewy. Prawn crackers come up twice as a pitiful free portion, and satay chicken arrived without sauce. Others report greasy, frozen-looking chicken chow mein, a sweet and sour with barely any sauce, and duck with bones in it. One reviewer reports a fly in the curry sauce, and another describes raw chicken. One diner says the entire box meal went in the bin.

“Frankly disgusting. Duck had bones in it. Curry, sweet & sour both poor in flavour. Ribs, pork (curry), chicken (s&s) all tough and chewy. Paid about £40 and we both left loads as it was that bad. Half filled containers. Will never order from here again.”

“Regular customers, ordered food tonight and found a massive fly in the curry sauce. Yum. Don't order unless you like eating bugs.”

“The place has gone downhill! 😡 Defo new owners, they can’t do it right I’m afraid, the food looks frozen and very greasy, the only good thing is the spring rolls, everything else a no go. Staff are excellent just sadly the food goes to pot, I’m sorry for all of those who have to put up with this, please take notice from this, this used to be a decent Chinese, don’t know what’s happened. Delivery staff are nice and helpful. Sorry.”
